Mp4-12c gt3 setup @spa

Alrighty, since there is no specific section in the forums for this I'll have to ask it here.

Can anyone help me out with a nice setup for the 12C GT3 at Spa?

I simply can't get a good balanced setup, it's either low as hell top speed and no acceleration at all or spinning out in the fast corners due to the rear end breaking out.

Any help would be much appreciated

 

Err dificult to say cause every one has a way of driving, and needs diferent things, you only say it has low speed can you say your topspeed? at the end of kemmel straight
Also you talk about poor aceleraiton, well that's the mclaren it's his weakest point

Spinning out of fast corners.. well with no clue how your setup is no idea what is the fualt, but i can tell you to go fast with the mclaren you gotta have that kind of behaviour, low wing and live with it on the fast turn be smooth as hell, use your throttle too to help on that

 

RSR, and Race Department have some setup files I understand. Best off to play with your own though (Oow! Ah! Misses).

 

top speed I reached was 264kph.
My driving style? No idea what my driving style is. I can share my Z4 GT3 setup, somewhat nailed it on that one handling wise.
You say the mclaren gt3 has poor accel well then the Z4 GT3 has even worse accel because I couldn't catch a 12c GT3 yesterday even though I had better corner exit. He just drove off while I was in his slipstream (with my Z4)

 

Are you sure your pedal is working to the maximum extent?

 

the z4 has more exit corner acceleration but the z4 has to use more wings than mp4 otherwise looses on corner speed.
What is your laptime in the mparen? 264 sounds ok to me as a topspeed, you might be running 2 or 3 rear wing

If you loose the car can be bumps or the car rising the rear end on turn entry or diferential
How is your coasT?

Also toe can help

 

afaik it is yeah I was reaching 268 in the bmw in slipstream (normally around 264 - 266) and he was still pulling away like wth.

 

Laptime in Bmw: 2:18.212 (With softs but was only .01 faster than my best meds time)
Mclaren: 2:18.835 but I don't feel comfortable at all with the setup and lost a lot of time due to lack of confidence.

 

That' is normal the z4 is easy to drive , easy to safe, and easy to not make mistakes
The mp4 is the contrary to be fast it is really knife edge car, hard to save sometimes, easy to make mistakes, etc..

 

High 2:20s are the best I have done in the GT3 cars (low 2:20 in the Nissan), but then my "setup" (if you can call it that) is very conservative

 

This is, of course, highly subjective, but I never really liked driving the 12C until I had a brief chat with Rune Janssens, who also supplied me with his hotlap setup. This was quite a number of months ago, though, so I don't exactly remember whether it was before the tyre patch or after. However, I use that setup to tailor it to my needs for every track, because I perform very well with its approach. Used to do 2:20s, now I easily run 2:18s. I'd say hit him up and ask him,he's a nice guy and set really quick times. Maybe you can even find it on RD or RSR.

 

Aight, thanks for the headsup

 

that's the easier way to go but not the smarter.

I would experiment myself and understand the car, this way you will be able to set it up as you want for any track, and other cars too.
