when you cluick on multiplayer you see your name there, do it there

That doesn't work, I either have to do a new profile, or change the name of the folder and the plr file. I did the folder name change so I could keep the plr file. And i still can't hit the 18's!!!

Could possibly be a bit late tomorrow, the traffic in and out of Silverstone today was horendous, took two and a half hours to move about 5 miles so I have no idea of what time i'll be back at, hoping it won't be as bad as today though!

You lucky bugger ! (not the traffic bit though hehe). Last time i saw F1's, Traction Control was involved and Kimi was in fine form. Bet they sound better now. Have fun. Hope to see you on the grid on time

they are saved in your GSC Folder, mines all default so that's where they should be, the screenshots are called "GRAB"

The strange thing is that no screenshots are there, maybe a win7 glitch or something.
thx anyway

@Thomas : This is what you were doing.

Well Dave, i agree with the two other pics but, with this one (which was my hotlap of 1 18 108) i don't agree with it because my two wheels where at the white line, and it says ''atleast 2 wheels in the white lines'' which i had

I was doing some testing (and realized I should have practiced more with the F3 on this track) and I run the car with 10 liters on booard.

The game says that 10l should give you 5 laps, but I run out in the 8th lap. So I figured that it gives you at least 7 laps or roughly 1.4 liters per lap.

Was I drunk or are my calculations correct?

Edit: One more thing, this is the first time I run the F3 "in anger". Usually when I drive it I run the default setup. Anyway, I was testing different wing settings and it doesn;t seem like the wing makes a great deal of difference.

I went from 40/40 (the default) to running 11/10 thinking that I was going to skate all over the track, but instead grip was still pretty good, but at the same time, I didn't see a great deal of additional speed out of it.
What's your experience? is it worth running a low wing? My times, poor as they were didn't show any difference.

Jari Vinnari · Jul 7, 2012

Fuel consumption is about 1.3 liters/lap and race should last for 38 laps.
Ill go with 55 liters.

I use 29/30 wing settings on my setup.

Interesting, I am loading the front wing a bit more because to me the car understeers a bit. You find the opposite? Or do we write our wings differently? Mine is F/R or 25/24.

As far as fuel, it's pretty close. I don;t recall how many laps I calculated,exactly, but I was really close. I use an android app where I enter race length, fuel and lap time and it spits out all sort of data. Especially useful for endurance races, but I got used to it for all races. Saves a couple of neurons.
