The GTR sure is a handful.

Yeah, she takes a bit of taming

What’s the general consensus on tyres for this? I seem to be able to get the softs to work as long as I’m gentle with them.

I taking the mediums, i'm not that gentle

i tried the setup that was posted ,and i does have some good/strong points.
Was a short practise run(6/7 laps),didnt have the time to do more.
Times were a little bit slower then my own setup,but it felt a lot more stable.
But i think i'll try to make a combo of his setup and mine.
I'm experiencing to much understeer comming of the brakes with his setup.
But big thanks for posting it,gave me a few new idears

I made a few adjustments myself, but found it to be a very good base

Yeh you could be right. Practice I’m quite gentle, racing is another story.

The front is very high and very stiff, but like Craig says, it's a really good place to start from.

Yes, I have lowered her and using a much softer suspension and changed the brake bios and brake power ....like I said that setup was for Brands Hatch

I was hoping to get my pedals sorted out today. Thanks to dpd that's not going to happen, so please count me out Craig.

This car takes a lot of practice and a good setup to become stable and competitive, its probably taking up too much time for people to commit to it. Maybe I am only speaking for myself but ive spent a fair amount of time getting comfortable with the car and track.

You may well be right Matt, I thought drivers would love the challenge this car brings ...no more supercars me thinks.

See how tonight goes, could still be very fun for the people involved. You can't please everyone and you boys are in the middle so to speak. Keep up the good work though!
