Change set-up when pitting?

May seem stupid but i know their has been times personally when racing a
long race that i feel my setup isnt doing me any favours and to change the
setup you have to pit and start from 0 laps again so maybe have an opion
for when you pit allowing you to change your setup? And if someone does,
add another XX seconds to the stop?

Just a wee idea.

Postal Order i think is only British. It's like a money order but we can get them from the Post Office. I always thought they were different but im not 100% sure on that.
Postal Order?

Does anyone know / has been able to by an S2 licence with a postal order?

I dont have the luxuries of electronic payment methods and dont own a cheque book. If not do you think the Devs would consider them?

Thanks, David.

Quote from Daveigus :this may sound really dumb but... when ever my car is damaged and i want to drive to the pit stop, and get there, nothing happens.
the only way i can repair my car is by pressing esc and clicking on "pit stop" but then my laps reset, why is this or what am i doing wrong? please help.

thank you :-)

Have you got a drive through penalty? or a stop-go penalty? If you go above 48-50 MPH in the pit-lane you get one and when you do eventualy go for a stop it generaly wont let you.

I know that as soon as i get S2 I'm taking the V8 and the BMW for a spin.

Most likely into some gravel tho

Quote from SamH :You can't beat force feedback for "connection" though. If you could stretch to a DFP, it's worth it. Whatever you do, though, DONT buy THAT wheel from PC World. The price is ridiculous. On the web it's £79.98, but SOME PCWorld stores (not all) are trying to flog it for £99. You can buy it online, delivered for just over £60 if you shop around.

Yeh i know, PC World is a rip-off store most of the time but that is a huge price difference

Quote from ButterTyres :Watch the world record hotlap closely, braking points etc

Where can i get that from?

Quote from Greboth :Also try team inferno (link in my sig) for set ups.

o.O i never knew a site like that existed. Thanks

On the wheel note, i just remembered that i have a Lotus one. (for xbox) Click Me If i was to get a xbox to PC adapter, would this work? Temp untill i can get a decent one?

Hey, well according to my Join Date it says June 05 so i guess just before then, :P but i've only picked it back up in the last month or so.

I've tried all of what you said above and I've noticed my 1st sector time is reducing slightly. I can just about get a mid / low 29 where as previously i got high 30's and upwards.

I think my main problem is the fear of spinning the car and possibly losing the race. I dno why that is but i know i drove like that on games such as GT1-3 and the TOCA series.

Braking later might take a while for me. When i do brake later i either go off or the car decide's it wants to do a 360.

But a big thank you for the reply though dude. Helped me so far :P

Definatly thinking of getting a wheel seen a few nice ones online (DFP and the Logitech G25 for example) but may need to save for that one :P

David.

Uploaded a replay of an online race. For some reason, in single player I hardly make a 1:35 but online i fly along. :S

BTW my gamename is "Dave ==||==" in the red and white car. (staring last)

In any case, i have a Saitek P2600 RUMBLE joypad (see below)

Use the left analogue stick for stearing and the right analogue stick for throttle and braking.

Whoops, forgot to mention that.

It's the XR GT TURBO.

Love it to bits :P (better than the XF GTI in my opinion)
Just saying hi :)

Well yeh, hi

I'm a demo racer at the moment but i will be buying S2 as soon as some money issues get cleared up.

I'm not a "Crasher" or any of that immature nonsence and i'm not one for randomly abusing someone who has crashed into me (unless it is one of them immature crashers) and always say sorry if i have hit someone. If i gained a their position due to my accident, i let them past me and continue the race.

My main reason for this post is to ask if anyone has any tips on how to get mid-range 1:20 laps on Blackwood. Personally i have managed 1:28 on a few occasions but I've seen many who can do 1:27 and a few 1:24's! I've tried changing options like 'throttle blip on upshift', breaking later, using / not using the racing line and many different sets but still no difference.

But yeah, any help will be great. Hello once again (sorry for a long-ish post) and hope to see you on S2 soonish. :thumb3d:

David.
