nice looong race......
thanks to All

Really nice race . I show you the oversteer control did at the last corner of the last lap:




I was curious to know if it is normal to carry out such a maneuver, and I found this:




netKar PRO never fails to amaze me...

Results [qualy & 38 laps race]:


Nice event [good battles with: A Rus (good careful driver) and especially most of the time with Rene L., + indirect battles by following Gilles, Graziano,.. at some certain time on track].
At least I was almost satisfied with some of my qualy laps (tired three setups in qualy: with low, mid.-low and mid-high wing, the second one worked best).

I spent unnecessary 20 seconds more than usual at the pitstop.., because I changed the setup / loaded another one [5/1 wings] to compare on track, but my first setup [8(front)/5(rear) wings] was a bit better (no big surprise ). That standing at the pitbox for 30 sec. cost me at least a position. -In the last laps I let Rene pass by 'mistake', after letting thorugh 2nd leader Orsetti, thinking the car behind Orsetti was another (3rd) leader to let through, but wasn't, it was Rene one pos. directly behind my car. Rene was a little bit faster anyway at that time, so that was ok.-
In Interlagos it is possible to use less front wing than normal (and alter the rear instead, to keep balance still the same) -with the KS2 that works here-, but unfortunately I did not try that at this event, maybe that would have worked better here with the F2000 also.

Yes nice race with Waechter, but then i made a mistake. The guys in the front are very fast and they can manage the drifting better. For now i can't drive on this track like this, where the drift is very important.

Thx. Don't know, if they are really much drifting (that would overheat and maybe also destroy the tires to early), maybe the setup is more refined to their style also.
If you want to check out mine: I uploaded my F2000 setup, I used for the last race at Imola at waagenvoort.net/rank [ link ].
This set I also used at Interlaogs.., with just to the tracks topspeed adjusted gears and a little bit higher wings + a maybe bit more preload for increasing the ride high a few mm.

[Mostly I set up cars with 'proj. aero' at 3.0 (front) - 3.2 (front), but the pitlane has to be plane to read this value correctly, in Interlagos the surface in pit is not plane (has bows) so that value is jumping around a bit from time to time.]

As Marco said, drifting is absolutely not the right way to drive. if you're referring to my video, that is an unwanted oversteer that I saved by a miracle. I uploaded it just to show the comparison with a similar maneuver in reality to prove, once again, how realistic is netKar .

Whether there will be a championship on open wheels?

hope that we can made a first ACchampionship

If it is not delayed too much.. . They are still working on some (new) features and options ready for v1.0 already -and else, referring to racedep. forum.
But they will soon communicate even a fix release date among a list of all content/features.
[I can wait btw. .., at least some few posters in that mentioned forum are just a little bit impatient .]
