I need to up my game !

Very welcome, Jorge and Mr. Hinyaldee!
What a great season is about to come. Hopefully much more get interested to join the pack.
Also special thanks to PrBlanco for best management, well done!

Stay safe. In peace.

Two things seemed very unusual to me about your laps, first is that you drive without F7 Traction Control with a non-analog control scheme, which seems very difficult to control; second is that you use more rear wing than front wing, which induces understeer. Maybe try playing around with these?

To gildoorf and Paulo:
-------------------------------------------------------
Thank you both.
I was very lucky to hit my best 3 sectors in 1 single lap.
Many times is hard or nearly imposible to acomplish when you are in the limit.

Masive admiration to Fongu understanding his control of driving.

Many of the tracks i havent raced nor tested in years and others are brand new to me like Saudi Arabia.

I was hoping at the end of season the setups can be published so people can have a real good base to race with.
These setups can actually work well for dry race conditions.

Thank you very much for everything.


2010 to 2021 Gp4 Track updates

Congrats Jorge on your impressive preseason pace. I look forward to future duels as the season commences.

Thanks for the graphics and info Prblanco, and welcome hinyaldee, your unconventional setup and driving was impressive to watch.

I'm crazy like that indeed, no assists on the keyboard safe for Steering Help :D I'll try adjusting my wings as it seems that I tend to not use enough most of the time and was surprised to see how high all of yours were. Thanks for the advice !
