Hey Payton, thanks so much for these past few lap guides/setups for the weekly LFM MX5 races! I see your name pop up in the entry list for the races and it always good motivation for me to get up (or down?) there with practice. You've definitely helped cut down the guess work. Thanks again!

Happy that I'm able to motivate you! Hopefully I will see you in a lobby ⚡

Thanks for the video! You are doing a lot for the AC/LFM community with your free guides and setups. Here is a little tip for the corkscrew: Once you see down, aim for the gap between the third and fourth tree. At least for lesser skilled people (like me) this is quite helpeful. ^^

Very helpful. Watching your video I realized that there are a few corners that I can pass with the throttle completely down. By the way, can you make a TRACK GUIDE for the clio? I noticed no one has made a video of it.

Great video. I just got started with LFM and while i like the MX5 Cup car i can't enjoy Laguna Seca jet. A lot of blind corners, the red curbs will kill you if you get to close and somehow with a pedal shifter the car is unstable as hell. I can get a 1:40 with the stock car and it's all about getting 4-5kph more through all the flatout corners. Can't wait to get to any of the european tracks where you don't die instantly you slightly miss a point and can actually take different lines.

@Paypay22

Are you struggling with instability on downshifts? If you aren’t already, try to do heel and toe to keep it stable 👍

@MrHaggyy

6 ай бұрын

@@Paypay22 Yeah I still need to learn heel&toe on the MX5. Struggle with the balance of a good heel and not over braking the car. But I really like the car on Brno, Barcelona, or Imola, where you brake primarily for rotation not so much for losing speed.

@Paypay22

6 ай бұрын

@@MrHaggyy While it’s called heel and toe, everyone i know who does it uses the top left of their foot for braking and top right for blipping the throttle, so you don’t literally have to try use your heel, so try playing around with that 👍

Great guide, I went down from 1:42ish to 1:38 so far but I'm having trouble keeping my tires warm. What ambient and track temperatures do you use?

@Paypay22

2 ай бұрын

This lap was done on pretty temperatures, as cold as RSR would allow. I think 10 ambient 14 track maybe. Cold air gives more speed on the straight and the colder track temp can be negated with warming up the tires before the lap. This is a quali lap, because i scrubbed the tires to heat them up first. On LFM race pace without hearing the tires I was hitting high 35 low 36, there isn’t really a lot you can do to keep them warm in the race

Hi Payton, coll video, thanks for guide. There is no suspension setup on video and when I tryed to download setup its just open Content manager and thats it/ nothing happend. What am I doing wrong.

Why is the RF pressure 1 psi lower than the other tires? Does it have to do with the track direction?

@Paypay22

2 ай бұрын

There are more right hand corners so there is a lot of heat going into the right front, and more heat means higher tire pressures. To stay at the optimal pressure, it has to be lower on the setup compared to the other tires

Im maxed out at .38 with default setup, only disabled traction controller, starting with cold tires on lap 2 or 3ish. I wonder what time you can pull with a default setup.

There's an article on race department where one of the Kunos developers says It's not like you're going to gain seconds with Hshifter and clutch. It's more like 2-3 tenths maybe and thats for a highly trained and skilled driver that knows how to use clutch and blip and h shifter. An average driver that uses paddles will probably be faster with them because it will have a more precise and easier job behind the wheel.

@Paypay22

6 ай бұрын

If you’re a faster driver with paddles you can definitely beat some H shifter drivers. But at the top end, paddles can’t beat H shifter. On mugello I was losing nearly a full second on paddles, so the difference is definitely there!

Do auto blip and auto clutch make a big difference if you use them?
