Balanced! Drives like a car :)

Nils Naujoks

Race drivers always seek for the duality of physics: He/she wants traction. And Rotation. A good front end and a good rear. The truth is: It's all always there, but what the driver is unhappy with is laptime and corner speed. Always.
The Lambo is a weird car. It's a mid engine, but it doesn't really drive like one. It has a lot of traits of the front engined cars which is down to its aero map on the front peaking quite a bit higher than usual.
The setup then is built to give similar rotation in all situations and therefor be predictable The electronics struggle a bit with the unloaded inside rear, but a stiff suspension helps in fact. The ABS does its job, trust it and you will get the nose into the turn. It tends to lose the rear on entry when releasing the brake, but I muted that behavior as much as I could. On exit, it will keep rotating thanks to toe and mechanical balance.
However, its not that fast on the Nurburgring.

Electronics:
TC on 2 or 3 for Q and potentiallyfor the Race to save the rear tires.
ABS on 3-4 seems predictable, go up to 6 if you feel the need for more intervention.


Adjustments (you dont actually need any imo)

  • The spring steps are rather large, front and rear have different steps, only giving you a few balanced pairings. Try to keep them similar for this setup with the rear always a tad harder than the front, but feel free to experiment with different pairings, softer and stiffer. Stiffer will be more predictable but less compliant, softer a bit less responsive, but harder to lose grip
  • stiffen the front arb if the nose is too pointy (doubt)
  • move BB forward if too loose into the corners. 
  • The car is sluggish on weight transfer, therefor the steering is set to fast (low ratio), forcing the front around. Don't shy away from turning a little more than expected, the front will take it
  • adjust rear ride height for over/understeer by 1mm steps
  • Generally the car might work with more negative toe still. Max negative toe triggers too much TC in my opinion - might be faster, but less consistent.

Driving:

  • you can push into the corner and start trail braking rather late 
  • The car does not need pitch, the nose is actually better if a bit higher and fed with more air under the splitter
  • the car keeps rotating with little throttle applied, so you don't need to slam it every time.
  • aim for late apex in hairpins, try to trail deep, immediate but progressive throttle, little to no coasting in tight corners, aggressive throttle in longer corners.
  • long corners can take a bit of coasting!
  • power curve is a bit boring, shift at 8000rpm
  • the car will favor straight exits for the lack of rear grip under acceleration, especially out of the slower corners

LFM:
Just reduce fuel load to 45/49L. Balance should become even more neutral. Adjust rear ride height +-1mm to your liking. Most likely up by 1mm for medium fuel loads.
