[Physics Update] P1, P2 & Daytona Prototype - 27/01/2022

Put rearwing to max and it is a little bit better.

 

Just to test the new physics out I launched the DMD P21-P2 and Mistral M530-P1 in practice mode.
The cars are reasonably difficult to drive on the edge - but OK (IMO).
But what is not OK is the shift down locks.
The P2 is so bad I thought it was the shifter on my wheel that was mal-functioning.
So I gave up on this car after some frustrating laps.
But the P1 isnt much better - but at least it is possible to shift down if you just wait about 2sec between shifts.
Hehe slightly exaggerated - but still an issue.

I have to say that my old street car is able to shift down faster than these socalled simulations of high tec race cars.

 

You may be right as I did the opposite and put the front wing to 1 on Indy and the Mistral was fine. I´ll try on other tracks.

 

might wanna change the maximum brake bias to 70/30 like most cars are in R3E as I accidentally selected 0/100 brake bias which obviously undriveable

 

So, which era exactly do the DMDs and the Mistrals represent? The P2 cars seem to be a lot slower than modern LMP2 cars.

 

Alex, can you please double check?
I have adjusted camber and pressure, now I have camber temp and pressure temp again in good range.
Instead of the expected decrease I Still experience for DTM20 an increased tire wear by about 15%.

 

The store has them listed as from 2009. Dont know if thats a precise year but i guess its enough to roughly put them into whatever era was around that time

 

For setting the correct camber it was the recommendation to have 10 degrees between inside tyre temperature und outside tyre temperature, but now with 10 degrees the tyre temperature is very high. If you reduce now the camber then you will have only 5 degrees temperature difference. What is now the recommended temperature difference for the DTM2020 cars.

 

If my understanding if this device is correct, I don't think it would allow you to have 100/0 or 0/100 brake balance. You'd need to apply pressure directly on one end, right? Like that:


That's impossible with a device like on your picture. Also I see a bolt head on the left side which is pretty close to the left fulcrum so it won't allow the pin to go too far to the right.

 

I have my work in real world racing and I can tell you; it does go "all the way".

 

Yeah, I think the updated default aero setups are a bit... optimistic for a starting point. If you're not used to those cars, you may spin a lot.

 

Yes, too much front aero on the Mistral and DMD P2 default, either more rear or less front wing helps a lot.

 

What was the wear before the update, that we can compare.
