Just something I noticed earlier while I was messing around before work; I did a multi class race at the Glen, and I was struggling with the setup I had for the race we did there a few weeks back so I figured I'd try my setup for Zhuhai and see how it was, and surprisingly it worked fairly well! That may work backwards, in that a decent dry-weather setup for Watkins Glen might be a good start for a tune at Zhuhai... Could just be me being insane (wouldn't be surprised, my tuning is terrible in PC2) but if you're struggling that could be a good start. Just some food for thought That does make sense because they are quite a bit similar. Both have similar issues with being hard on tires, too.

I haven't had a chance to get on track here so far. I had hoped to tonight but other things prevented that. Never driven at Zhuhai so far so hoping I can find something decent here without too much trouble.

Those, and atleast in my case the Zhuhai tune had a lot higher downforce than I would run at the Glen. Zhuhai is a bit rougher on tires though, and it's a bit bumpier so with some ride height and downforce adjustments you'd probably be in pretty good shape

We will be running two lobby's for this race again. Currently there will be 10 drivers in each with the split based on Championship position. Lobby 2 will again race for half points.
I will post the details of who is in each lobby on Friday morning but you can get an idea by looking at the league tables.

With the two lobbies, I expect it to still be close with all finishers within a lap, even though the laps are short. People are setting really fast pace in both lobbies. This race would be a bookie's nightmare.lol
It's a strange race for tires. I feel like Fuji and Watkins were easier to tune for, even with the weather. Should be a fun race with some great highlights.

Ok guys just a quick warning... If I drift into you on track tomorrow it's all Sean's fault!! He persuaded me to get into Dirt Rally 2 and I haven't been back to pCars since so practice here has been pretty limited as a result. Not sure my handbrake turns are going to be much help around the corners of Zhuhai 🤔 but they may help me to block a few of you off 🤣😂
