Hi! Does anyone know what actually determines your tyre temperatures in GPL?? Is it just time, or distance, or is it more complex? I've checked the FAQ's etc, but not found anything. rgds IB
How hard you drive, how much you slide going into corners, how much wheelspin you get coming out of corners, what your setup is (springs, camber, pressures, etc.) and no doubt other factors. Just like real racing. If you find you are melting tires, it either means your setup is very bad or you are over-driving the corners. Try to be smoother and you might find you don't overheat the tires AND your times will improve. GPL rewards smoothness. Just like real racing :) "Ivor Bigunn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
