This car drives fantastic in this build.

[Attila Csapo]

Agreed. It's easy to lose the back end while accelerating, but it should be accurate from what I've learnt about this car from reviews and youtube videos. Anyway, I would be thankful for a stable setup.

I think the default setup is pretty stable, if anything i'll make mine less "stable".
Try decreasing the Accel lock in the diff, or just be smoother with the throttle.

Ye default setup is quite stable, i think when i start to tweak setup tomorrow i only alter gearing a bit as first step, with default gearing you dont even hit 6th

[Whykonen]

Yeah it's a great car, loved it in 207 so will love it even more in 221! I"m a team member now so am looking forward to this event

Well you obviously need to overclock it With 2500K just simple raise the multiplier in uefi/bios and increase voltage till its stable (and test the stability with stress test programs like intel burntest, Prime95, linx etc).

But If you have i5 2500 without K overcloking isnt really possible as multiplier is locked, you can raise bus speed few odd mhz but not worth it.

For me the car understeers more than the BAC^^ gave it too tried shortly and went straight off the track twice :S
