[QUOTE="e60FANster, post: 459955, member: 17103"] let me try to re-cap the best tt i can. Turn 1-2 - moderate throttle, throtlle btwn 2-3 gear(based on 325 gear ratio & speed). here is FUN part for FR coz e rear can slide, the FF normally find dis corner e hardest due to severe understeer. after turn 2, flat out all e way thru turn 3 which is a more a bend then corner keeping e inner right line. hard braking approaching turn 4, sharp turn in rite, 2nd gear w slight uphill so abit hard to pull but again flat out thru turn 5, off throtle n quik tap on brakes thru turn 6. den flat out again n b4 turn 7 slight off throttle to cathc rite entry speed if u catch e line den 7 n 8 is one long bend so no point goin in to turn 7 too fast coz u screw up turn 8 by braking. hard on e brakes approaching hair pin turn 9, here NA cars lose lose lose big time at exit of turn 9. then once on song turn 10 is off camber turn in to 11, gun throttle till turn 12. at e start of turn 12 is important, if setup correcly then 13 n 14 is shld be fairly quick exit. half throttle thru out 12, 13 , 14 actually can gun it max at some point w minor braking. once after 14 home run till turn 15, juz b4 turn 15 hard braking n slide slide slide... abit lar. den front straight... RUN FOREST RUN... say bye bye turbo's, R's, GTI's, lution's.. c u again after a few turns. SIC is hard on e brakes wen coming in to tight hairpin corners but generally mild arnd most part of e tracks. going off throttle n engine braking is sufficient most of the time but if u drive a monster den u really gotta work the brakes hard. dat's y sometimes a balanced car w rite hp is gud for a particular track design. i've tried driving a 400+ ATW evo7 on SIC, i gave up after 2 laps. coz 1. i'm a lousy driver n power was crazy 2. too much boost n timing of e boost, especially wen it comes to e corners like on/off feeling wen gunning throttle 3. too much hp for the tires n suspension/chassis to handle 4. messing up w the gears selection and its ratio. 5. too much hard braking, normal coz carry too much speed b4 hitting e turns [/QUOTE]
