![]() Mike could tell I needed more front negative camber and less rear negative camber. By looking at the temperature distribution across the tire, the best alignment settings and tire pressures can be determined. Here Shelby is checking the tire temperatures during a stop and go in the hot pits. If all things were equal from my baseline, the KW’s would have probably improved my lap times by 4 seconds a lap or more! The fact that the KW Clubsports improved my lap time this much even with all this going on is pretty amazing. this alone was probably at least another second from previous conditions. Heres a quick breakdown of the tyre mechanics present in Motorsport Manager While the game throws several tire compounds at you, theres really only a few. By looking at my ECU’s logs, the ECU was pulling timing and boost pressure and I was loosing at least 30 hp over the last time I was here. This was about 15 degrees hotter than my last event at this track. ![]() For this event, it was very hot, well into the 90’s with a lot of humidity. Another factor that probably added at least another second was the weather conditions. New tires and adjusting the suspension for them would have cut at least another second off my previous personal best time. What made this two-second drop in time all the more impressive was that this was on old, greasy feeling and heat-cycled tires from my last two events. Shelby Crackston, one of my crew members, and I showing the proven results from that the Apex PRO data logger allowed us to capture. There are certainly other less obvious things which also have an impact on fuel efficiency.Installation and testing of the KW 2-Way Clubsports on the Devine Force Racing Time Attack STi Engines that have 40%/50% Reliability are required to use this strategy.ġ9 Liters per 100kms E85 Performance Fuelįuel manufacturer chosen during pre-season car construction definitely affects fuel efficiency. Low (Blue) - Uses 0.9 Laps of fuel (per fuel gauge) for each driven lap and cools down the engine and wearing it at half speed. ![]() Medium (Yellow) - Uses 1.0 Lap of fuel (per fuel gauge) for each driven lap and the engine has no impact. High (Orange) - Uses 1.1 Laps of fuel (per fuel gauge) for each driven lap, heats up the engine a bit and can wear it a bit faster than normal. Not recommended for low reliable engines. Overtake (Red) - Uses 1.3 Laps of fuel (per fuel gauge) for each driven lap, heats up the engine and can wear very quickly if used too much. Intermetiate tyres are useful between 10 and 60 of water on the track. Slick tyres are useful when the track is dry or when the track is starting to get wet (up to 10). It also hurts the engine in the worst way. There are 5 tyre compounds in Motorsport Manager Online: Slick - Soft Slick - Medium Slick - Hard Wet - Intermediate Wet - Rain Each tyre type has got different top speed and durability. Super Overtake (Pink) - A level beyond that of Overtake, only available as a mechanic knowledge perk and uses over 1.5 Laps of fuel (per fuel gauge) for each driven lap. ![]() (These numbers are a rough guide and have various modifiers which can and will affect the actual returns) Note that both tires used for Wet Conditions have to be at 0% wear to result in loss of speed/puncture. The effective range of wet tyres are between "k" (k meaning just below letter "k" in "water on track" text) to the end of the gauge. Wet tyres are not very often used and when it is used in an intermediate tyre range the car performance is impacted very negatively. When wet level is within range letter "o" and just before "k" in the "water on track" text, the intermediate tyres work best, however just before "o" seem to give you little advantage over slick tyres. Used for little to moderate rain condition. Wet Tires (Grooved) Intermediate (Green) High speed, low durability, Grip falls at 15%.Ībove average speed, below average durability, Grip falls at 10%.Īverage speed, average durability, Grip falls at 5%.īelow average speed, best durability, Grip falls at 0% while puncture is inevitable at the percentage. Very high speed, very low durability, Grip falls at 20%. Overheated tires will see loss of Driver Aggression and will be likely to see Driver Mistakes such as possible penalties for Collisions/Corner Cutting, Lockups, Running Wide, and even Crashes/Retirements.ĭry Tires (Slicks) Ultra Soft (Purple) Chances of getting to the end without a pitstop is almost impossible unless a strategic option is used. After reaching a certain low percentage, the car suffers a sudden loss of grip making the driver vulnerable of keep a certain position making a Pit Stop inevitable. Getting the most out of a certain tyre is vital to strategy, and when they reach a certain grip percentage, the lap times drop slowly. Aggressive Driving will result the tires to wear down faster while Calm Driving wears them less. Each track has 3 types of dry tyre compounds and 2 types of wet tyre compounds with the exception of some motorsports that have 2 types of tyre compounds.
