2nd place :)

woho, this was a great evening. i did some more testing with my setup and went for a asymmetrical setup. now i have stronger springs on the left side since flugplatz and adenauer forst are very fast right bends and for aremberg it is good to leave the bend very fast. and especially for galgenkopf, i can gain some more speed for the long döttinger höhe. i was working on the camper settings as well because i had the feeling that my tires are not perfect for the section starting at karussel and ending at galgenkopf. so i drove this part several times and went back to garage to check my tire cross temperature. but i think this is more irritating than really helpfull. i got a camper of less than 2 degree negative on all tires and the car was very slippy. even with this settings i got more heat on the inside which is quite normal but i was expecting that the temps are more equal. so i went back to my previous 2.7 on the front and 3.7 on the rear, the car feels great and the inner temps are just 10 degree hotter when i am close to the edge due the wheelspin under acceleration. the high camper setting fits to my suspension setting as well since you have to go for more camper if you are using a softer suspension. to prove all this i started a 12 lap race with 25 elises again. the behaviour of the car was great and so i was pushing very hard. in my 3rd lap i was passing 5 opponents and finished my lap with a 8:53. unfortunately, one car was hitting my rear in aremburg under braking, not because of my unexpected early braking just for happiness or whatsoever. so i hit the wall and my car was quite deformed. now it was hard to follow the field and i dropped down to 9:10. after pitting in the middle of the race i was able to come close to the 9:00 again and one and a half hour later i finished at 2nd position. due my fastest lap and my overall performance, i will adjusted the opponent strength to 95% for the next race.
