Should be an awesome event and venue for these cars!

Could someone share a setup for this?

lol at me for misspell title. It should say "Circuit de Spa-Francorchamp" not "Spa de Francorchamp"! My brain must be somewhere when I typed that title.


As for setup, I guess we will monitor iRacing forum for it.

Fixed on the thread title. Troy, I dont have a setup yet, but last week I downloaded one from the iRacing Forum and then made a few tweaks to it for my driving style and it worked pretty well. This car seems to be getting a lot of setups and sharing on the iRacing forums which is good. Also there are fixed setups for a lot of the tracks as well that they provided as a good starting point. Not sure if there is one for Spa or not, as I havent had a chance to look yet, but that would probably be a good place to start for this one if so.

iRacing Staff just announced server maintenance tomorrow (don’t worry, it’ll be done before our race) and they stated that they’re updating track issue. It could be fixing the “landmine” problem that HPD-ARX-01C is having.

That's good to hear John -- thanks for letting us know.

Earlier today, I had some sort of issue with stuttering at Spa - so I decided to mess around with overclocking my GPU and CPU. Somehow, the FPS dropped down to 40's (from over 150 FPS). I returned and return all setting to original and then FPS remains in 40-60's. I don't understand what happened - the settings were returned to exactly same before I messed around. I restarted computer several times but didn't change anything. However, I played DiRT 3 with Aaron and Val tonight, I have no issue with FPS.

I don't know what to do and I planned to figure out what went wrong tomorrow... hopefully, I will be able to get it fix before the race.

John, I'm having good fps at spa, I just reduce all shadows until a good fps...for the race at least. Hope it gets back up to the 100's for you.

Tough to do a clean lap here. I'm in the low 1:07's with around 110lbs fuel. Hope to survive this and not touch anything as this car gets black flagged easily for repairs.

I actually was running at 150 FPS at Spa till I messed with overclock and then nex thing FPS went down to 40's and then resetting all sets but FPS remains same. I might have to go into BIOS and hope I can reset it.

1:07? Let me guess, you got jet engine mounted on your LMP?
