[WIP] F1 1986

Some laps yesterday,great job:)
Just one thing,the car with no aero is quite the same driving than with a lot aero.
I'll do a video with a 88's track with my DD soon.
There is no "no aero" setting. As you will notice you cannot go past 65 on rear. 0 would be "no aero". Reason for this is, as 1986 cars used allmost full wings even on Monza and Hockenheim. They didnt really use low wings like in 88 season, as those powerfull engines needed all grip they could get to keep cars on road
 
Keke Rosberg, the first Finnish F1 driver to win the World Championship. Keke has had the reputation of being a loudmouth, but without him, there would've never been Mika Hakkinen, Kimi Raikkonen or any other F1 driver from Finland these days. Many might be impressed overtakes to MadMax Verstapen but if you look this video you may have second thoughts.
 
I can't comment without driving but there looks to be very few micro-adjustments to the wheel while lapping Adelaide, and a bit of "stable cruising understeer" through the corners, despite the big big engine.
Actually engine is very small:1.5L. Most likely you have bigger engine in your car.
 
:cool:

I remember one race at Sao Paulo that showed Keke turning up the first hill and as soon as he cleared the apex he put down two black strips all the way up to the next corner.!
 
I think I just shed a tear seeing the WIP of the 86 Ferrari. BEAUTIFUL !! Well done!:)
If I may be a bit of a "detail freak" I think I see the shocking thing for me was the steering wheel, in your WIP ferrari you have way too much lock on. See the hairpin of the straight in adelaide and compare both videos o_O
Yeah, I think you've got way too much rotation travel on that wheel.

Yeah I looked the same!
 
I am getting a weird glitch with this car where, the session started fine but suddenly my gearing would pretty much be locked on to 4th gear, with the car constantly going for the clutch to change gears. I couldn't reproduce it with other content but I found that if I set my H-shifter to 1st (or just engaged on a gear), then the Neutral gearbox behavior returns.

One question on the car, what are the max downforce levels it can pull? I set max front and minimum rear and the car never snapped (at Lester), if anything it understeers into long fast corners with a constant or tightening radius. (By the way, it is still a very pleasant drive)
I think I know reason for your problem. Found something like that myself too few days ago.

Not that much downforce amount, but the ratio it's bit more in rear. That's why it keeps it together now quite good. Also possible it keeps it bit too good now. We will see when I continue more working with these car :)
 
It is normal that the car uses the clutch automatically for shifts, as the car has a semi-auto gearbox, and it seams that you, @Postipate , forgot to introduce your usual upgrade that allows you to change between paddle shifter, H pattern and hardcore (like the your Ferrari 312/67). This also means you do not need to blip on downshifts and lift on upshifts (which made my Macau video significantly easier).
Semi-Auto Gearboxey were in development in 1986 by Williams, but would first be used in a race car in Brazil 1989 by Ferrari, where the steering wheel of Mansell became undone, forcing them to replace it in a Pitstop, with him still going on to win.

Also the real car used a 7 speed gearbox (or do I have wrong info and it was in reality 6?).

And before somebody asks: The power levels of this car are fundamentally wrong in CarStat because of my lazy implementation of turbo chargers

Yeah I didn't make it 7 gear for reason. Will later add it as an option.
