Monza

Monza is a true cathedral to speed, unmatched around the world for its sense of history and passion, fuelled in part by its long history and also the fanaticism of the Italian fans, the tifosi. With the steadily decaying remnants of the high speed banked circuit providing a backdrop through the...

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you must check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Always try to re-enter the track parallel to the racing line. Stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

When joining the track from the pits, remain inside the white line and stay off the racing line until you are up to speed.

During qualification, do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by.


Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody, sending them off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a lift of the gas please.
   You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in Discord. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

I was going to do some BOP testing with these but forgot. I guess my excuse is that Monza will always require a totally different BOP anyway.

(I'm not driving the Viper this time though, but I won't go with the overpowered car either )

Going to try the Lambo to see if it goes as well as the gt3 around here.

Which is the overpowered one?

Which is the overpowered one?

Considering driving two laps with Han's understeery setup got me more than a second faster than the fastest racelap in the Nurburgring race, I think that one

 

[Fiberoptix]

Saleen again for me chaps.

Not true, you was just rubbish with the Viper!
The Saleen is certainly as quick as the Ferrari and that also goes for the other Ferrari.

But I had a lot of porpoisening in my Ferrari so I'm thinking of switching.

Wish I could make it, but I'll be at my town's street fair all day (got a table for my adult computer tutoring service ).

Happy to see these cars pop up again, last race was a lot of fun with them

 

[Kek700]

These are fabulous cars for this circuit,
You have missed a treat here Robert.

 

[Alfred Wayne]

Sometimes you have to miss one race to fund the rest of your racing calendar

Enjoy the view out your front window without me there

I also am enjoying driving the Shadow. Needs a lot of precision, but when you get it right it's fun. Tire management looks to be a big challange. So far it looks like two sets of mediums is a good starting point. I haven't even tried the softs, but my guess is they will only be good for a few laps. I tried the hard tires and they last, but no grip. Over heating takes a long time to get back to ideal temps.

My set up changes are limited to softening the suspension and raising the ride height. I was struggling with riding the curb after the apex of the 2nd lesmo.

 

[Kek700]

interesting comment, tend to go nowhere near the kerbs at Lesmo.
Never considered raising the ride height, always going in the other direction.

 

[Partick Eaton]

I am betting I will be slower than you in the race.......

 

[Kek700]

There has been many an occasion when you have given me a good run for my money Patrick.

 

[Interslice]

What sort of fuel load are you guys looking at for the race? Lambo is in around 136 litres

 

[Kek700]

Have not really looked at much, 136 Litres is a lot, just did a bit of setup.
