Ok so this is probably some skill issue on my part, but I have an issue with this Lola, where on the upshifts the rear wants to "kick out" especially in the low gears (2-3, 3-4), on Sebring at the hairpin and collier corners Currently I manage it by either lifting during the shift, although it seems to have auto-blip, or not giving 100% throttle on the exit of corners. The issue is that even at around 100-150 kph this can happen as well, where aero should be sufficient? I tried changing gear ratios and softening slow dampers but to no avail, the kick remains. This car is much harder to drive than the lmp1's
Lower diff preload, increase power ramp. Use full engine revs, do not short shift. Engine torque overwhems rear grip. Also lower tyre pressures to minimum, the contact patch cannot be optimised with camber or tyre pressure on these cars in my experience. Not enough negative camber adjustment and tyres are over inflated after 4 to 5 laps.
yeah I adjusted the diff to 0 preload and around 85 power ramp, 45 coast ramp, and now I can actually accelerate out of corners, but sometimes the inside tends to spin, tyre pressures too just like you said on 1.40 bar. It is wild too that the default gearbox setup is for le Mans, I barely reach the rev limiter at 295 on Monza in 5th.
Auto blip applies only with downshifts, what you need on some cars is shift cut - if the car doesn't feature it then you'll need to lift the throttle on up shifts regardless. Easy way to tell is if you watch the rpm counter and if the revs go up when you shift without lifting then you'll need to lift. Ginetta GT5 also doesn't have shift cut or auto blip so is easy to demonstrate on there
