Why all the negativity towards Formula Renault 3.5?

Very, very loose even with maximum downforce, mainly at rear. And the tyre's sound doesn't help: it's too quiet.

I cannot believe a real FR be so hard to drive, the races wouldn't finish at all.

 

I agree with Playlife :0

 

I had a bit of a play with these things around Malaysia yesterday. Nothing wrong with the car. Try and pick a line in the first corner to avoid the bumps. I found a late apex and keep it tight on the ripple strip on exit to be around the mark.
Wheel settings for a G25 were 900 degrees in the logitech profiler and 340 degrees in game.
Here is my Malaysia full course set up. http://www.mediafire.com/?ntf0ycbii0a8a9c

 

Just tried this car for fun. Does anyone have a good basis setup for this car and the 2014 version?

 

Holy necropost Batman

 

LOL indeed, 2012 , I didn't see many other threads on this forum about this car, so I though let's keep it together and perhaps inspire some others to try this car. It is really twitchy on default setup, but then again the power/weight ratio is really crazy I believe.

 

There is a good topic about F3.5 on simracing-gp , and some setups too.
You can use them as a base:
