Round 2-3 - Trenton (Apr 10th)

More stagger helps corner entry (Less understeer) and getting around it better, but will cause more oversteer at corner exit when applying throttle.

Thank you Alberto,
and is there any rule or restriction (due to common sense what difference in stagger should be used? For example, left side 1.0, and right side 1.75, or is it better to combine smaller stagger difference?

Like I said before, Texas was a power track, this is more of a handling track.  Provided you set up the car right, you could be more competitive here.

Seems I'm not 32.721 in qualif boost...that's very very slow

But's not a problem. I'm not competitive all together. I'm not sure I could do better with another car

Ludovic, rather than play the victim card, you should be looking for a way to maximize the effectiveness Chevy's smooth power curve. This will be especially advantageous coming out of turn 2.  This is the part where you reply with "my car is too slow"

Stagger is only used in the rear tires. Unfortunately in rfactor you can't "lock" the front tyre option in the garage, but it has no effect at all in the physics.

I suggest that you do some laps with the default setup and minimum stagger, adjusting only the front wing and steering lock to your taste. Then you do some laps more with everything the same but maximum stagger and see the difference. 

I’ll be attending a WWII vet’s memorial service at Arlington Cemetery (Washington D.C.) and won’t be available for the Trenton action.

Sorry if I seems to play the victim card. I was in fact playing the self derision one. I was just mocking my lack of speed making me a major actor for the back row battle. Seems I miss my target by a wide shot . I apologized for my odd sense of humor.

Let's be clear. The problem don't lie in the car and/or the engine or anything else but in the driver seat (aka me). I'm unable to exploit (and surely to set up) the car that's all. Having a Chevy, an Offy or a Foyt in the back of any chassis won't change a bit of my slowness.
If I was really complaining about the car I'll have switch it for the #7 when it became available

Don't worry, even some of the speedier people (me included) are only fast for a few laps then all hell breaks loose coming out of 2.

If you'd like me to come up with a setup for the Eagle-Chevy, I can do that this week.

True. I like my cars looser than you do. Wait. That sounds a bit salacious.. 

Soooo hard not to jump on that and punish you

Now you are using the correct kind of humour

Just look at me... umm... sort of.

I started out in FWD's (A Golf 1 from 1978) so my basic driving style is "the front is doing what I ask of it, who cars what the rear end is doing" but I am able to adjust it somewhat, at least I thought so before I jumped into the M26 McLaren...

Could give a shot. Your set for Texas was far more better than anything I could have done.

I will be in Trenton.

Count me in!

Edit: Got an error '425: Can't open data connection' upon downloading.

Nvrmnd, working now.

I will be there.

Track look even better now, thanks guys!

I had a bit of a moment just ahead of Francois just now:

Great shot . Very cool.

very pleased to see the end result on a good working way
now both track and mod (cars) are shown in full glory and high quality

I am in, if there is a car available
