How much >faster can I go before I have to***with setup and shift myself ? >Oh ya, in the Lotus I'm not very good, and I've done 1:10.xx in most of the cars with stock setups. Never tried auto shifting, though. It's not that hard to shift for yourself. Upshift well before redline, preferably while moving in a straight line. (Lift as you upshift to avoid redlining your engine.) Come down to third for the downhill turn, third again for the sharp right-hander, and second for the ninety. Downshift after you brake for the curve, not before, to avoid redlining or upsetting your car's balance. 20 laps and you'll have it nailed, and by then you'll probably have broken that 1:13. -- spamgard(tm): To email me, put "geek" in your Subject line.
