The Internet records: -------------------- New Hampshire (1.058 miles) ---------------------------- 0:20.326 187.381 mph 95/06/15 s j y Charles Birch 0:20.351 187.160 mph 95/06/11 s j y Terje Wold Johansen 0:20.449 186.254 mph 95/01/04 s w y Scott Goolik 0:20.460 186.154 mph 94/11/22 s j y Herbert Pohlai 0:20.526 185.556 mph 94/11/22 s j y Peter Burke I am currently on the verge of beaking the 180mph barrier. Can anyone help me with my setup? The groove is pretty straight forward, so I must be able to make the car faster with the setup and still be driveable. My current qualify setup is this... Fuel: 3 gallons Steering Lock: 7 degrees Stagger: +0.451 inches Front Wing: 7.50 Rear Wing: 6.50 1st Gear: 10.60 2nd Gear: 9.20 3rd Gear: 7.90 4th Gear: 6.80 5th Gear: 6.20 6th Gear: 5.80 Boost Level: 9 Front Anti-Roll: 5 Rear Anti-Roll: 4 Brake Bias: 4 TIRE COMP PSI CAMBER SHOCK RF Medium 34 -2.08 75% RR Soft 30 -1.52 55% LR Soft 33 -0.43 55% LF Soft 36 -1.04 75% Anyone dare to give away a secret or two? Please? :)

Are you using analog braking and steering? I found out that makes a big difference. Just wait until I get a new wheel and some pedals built! Anyway, If anyone is interested, I'm willing to try keeping a database of ICR setups. I don't know exactly how much interest there is in this. Please send me a message if you're interested, and I'll see what I can do. - Sparky

> I am currently on the verge of beaking the 180mph barrier. Can anyone help me > with my setup? Hear are some hints. If you are using the 93 car set use a buick engine and Penske93 chassis. If you have the 95 car set use the menard and Penske94. I prefer less stagger. Try a bit more front wing and less rear wing. Top gear for the menard should be about a 4.00 I prefer a stiffer front and softer rear. Your shocks are way too soft and your tires are severly underinflated. And once you fix that all of your cambers will need to be adjusted. I also use a track temperature of 80 degrees. Charles Birch
At the moment, I've only heard from three people. Since there are many possible configurations of engines and chassis, it would be hard to make this a full-blown deal. What I need is a few generous souls to send me some setups - 93 or 94 car set - any or all courses. I plan to organize them into a compact text file with the player's name and optional best lap time and conditions which will be available by e-mail request. I'll go ahead and put in my setups. Hopefully there will be a correlation between all the engine/chassis configurations to make it more useful. All my setups are for the 93 Lola and Cosworth XB. Anyone willing to trade? Perhaps when ICR2 comes out, I can create a more useful database. -Sparky

Yes, another fellow in the ladder got a hot 184 with the V6, and even though I had already finished my race, I started playing with it. I never got it faster than the car I used, but it isn't near dialed in yet. Yes, had to totally revamp my ratios. Even with only 3 gallons gas? Thanks for the tips. That race is over now, and I have to race Vancouver buy the 27th. Just about when the real race happens, and I have tickets. :) But I will try to find time to improve that setup for next season. Anyway, I am having trouble in Vancouver now. The best lap I have cut is a 57.5. Even with the computer cars at 98% I have a long way to make up. I know this track inside out, but obviously I am taking a bad line somewhere. My setup can be high downforce or high speed. I seem to do best with a modifies easy setup, fast in the corners and a lot of wing, only 155 on the back stretch. But, with the ace setup I can do almost as well, but just not quite. It is most frusterating when I try to improve on either setup and get nowhere. Here's the setups: The high downforce setup at 57.663 Fuel: 8 gallons 1st Gear: 11.10 Steering Lock: 17 degrees 2nd Gear: 9.60 Stagger: +0.000 inches 3rd Gear: 8.30 4th Gear: 7.50 Front Wing: 12.50 5th Gear: 6.90 Rear Wing: 12.00 6th Gear: 6.50 Boost Level: 9 Front Anti-Roll: 2 Rear Anti-Roll: 2 Brake Bias: 7 TIRE COMPOUND PSI CAMBER SHOCK Right Front Soft 33 -2.24 65% Right Rear Soft 34 -1.84 80% Left Rear Soft 32 -1.60 55% Left Front Soft 34 -2.24 40% and the high speed setup: Fuel: 10 gallons 1st Gear: 11.70 Steering Lock: 17 degrees 2nd Gear: 9.60 Stagger: +0.000 inches 3rd Gear: 8.00 4th Gear: 7.20 Front Wing: 11.00 5th Gear: 6.60 Rear Wing: 10.75 6th Gear: 6.10 Boost Level: 7 Front Anti-Roll: 4 Rear Anti-Roll: 4 Brake Bias: 5 TIRE COMPOUND PSI CAMBER SHOCK Right Front Soft 33 -2.00 50% Right Rear Soft 35 -1.68 45% Left Rear Soft 32 -1.44 55% Left Front Soft 35 -2.08 30% Any help will be much appreciated. I need to do well in this race in order to pass the person ahead of me in the championship points. If I do well here, and again in Laguna, I may catch him. Incidently, I came in first at New Hampshire with the help I got. It was set at 105% opponents, and I didn't take one guy out. We loose a point per guy we take out, and that was my first clean race. :) Had a WICKED race setup, and could run anywhere on the track and still average 175. :) Thanks all, much appreciated. --If Hell ever does freeze over...
