I am bogging down at the left hander at point 2 and too much wheel spin at point 3. The last corner is just a disaster at the moment.

I take it I need to upgrade the gearbox etc to be able to change the settings?

Im using the 2nd to last gearbox. I rather adjust the final drive than every gear for this track.

With point (2) brake inside the tunnel or earlier than the line suggests, that way you should be able to hug the apex giving you a nice exit for the right hander just after, once again brake and ease the throttle up slowly.

For point (3), I aim to try and keep it running in 4th for virtually no wheelspin. Might just a bit of correct if you clip the curb but only so slightly.

On a photography related note, im looking at 50's again and im stuck.

Im torn between a Nikkor 50mm 1.2 ai-s or the Zeiss Planar T 1.4/50 ZE any words of wisom?

Great. If you want to accept my friend request, I can track how you're doing?

That left hander after the tunnel can be taken two way. you can either brake hard before the turn and hug the inside corner and power when the circuit straightens out, or you can brake more softly and coast around the outside of the bend. Either option take pretty much the same time. The tricky bit (for me) is knowing when and how fast to turn in to the blind right hander afterwards.

Cute Alert!

Looks like an interesting program. I played with the idea of Getty a while back, but decided I wasn't nearly good enough.

Wow. He won't be so lucky next time though....

Excellent. The 1974 Ford Escort 1600 and Escort Cosworth should be in the next Forza car pack.

Awesome! Time to start putting some vynils together now then.

Ive decided, im going for the Zeiss Planar T* /1.4 50mm ZE!

Didnt Elliott pick up some Zeiss?

Well now to save. The bokeh looks much better than the Canon 50 1.4 but not sure if ill be happy with just MF if I want to use it for rollerderby. Ill see what happens first.
