Do you not find the car ends up hitting the limiter in 6th on some of the long straights???

I just drop it down slightly to 330kph, seems to work pretty well for me.

When does this competition finish by the way, tomorrow night?

Yeah, lowering below 330 is not the way to go or at least not for me, and it does not affect downforce to lower or raise the speed.

top speed of a real life V8 Supercar is around 305kph so don't go doubting my theory too much if these cars were designed to be as close to the real life models as possible... the downforce may not be affected but the change in gear ratio makes it much quicker when you set it to 320...

nope i hit the limiter at the end of the very long straight but only for a brief moment and that was it, so it would have done little too effect my time...
