"This is the setup made specifically for eTM. R2 tires on front, R3s on rear. For some people this might create problems (but I am including an all around R3 set in the "sprint" category), reason why is that the set had to be made quite oversteery in order to keep the front tire temperatures equal to rears (obviously lower but the colour of the thread the same) - so the way to drive it is to brake a bit earlier cause of -1 rear wing and not trailbrake so much into a corner, as soon as the car has turned in straighten out the wheel and apply throttle progressivley - DONT STOMP ON IT and then do massive countersteering. Basically use less steering inputs and control the car with the throttle. This set can also be used for a 10 lap race by just reducing the rear antiroll bar by 10 N/mm (becuase fuel load is 25 % instead of 90 % and that makes the car oversteery - so reduce rear arb as much as you personally need to). Oh, just to mention, I managed a 10 lap race with all 1:40 laps except the pit and the out lap ofcourse, on this set. And another thing, the procedure for endurance driving of the FZR, this is FZR specific and should only be applied to cars with fuel tank in the front part of the car! So, due to the fuel tank location in the front, when a car is fully loaded 90-100 % of fuel - it is kind of understeery and unresponsive (partly due to just a bunch of weight but more due to the fact that front springs are underdamped when more weight is set on a fixed damper setting). So as the fuel runs out, the front end gets lighter and lighter, making it more responsive and easier to turn in ofcourse, but also overdamping the front springs - which changes the transient handling (handling when transitioning from brakes to throttle and back) - this means that the car will become more and more oversteery whenever it is not in steady state cornering. Due to the fact that dampers are not adjustable on the fly in LFS (F11 menu - and that would only solve 1 part of the problem) - as the fuel runs out we reduce the rear antiroll bar (or add front - but better to reduce the rear because you start with a much higher number and increasing the front will just increase the amount of roll stiffness of the front end making the suspension less independent and just worse all around). By how much do we reduce the rear antiroll? It's a personal thing, just look at your tire temperatures (considering that you are driving quite consistantly and not inducing any understeer etc) if the rear tire temperatures are 3-5°C higher than the fronts and the car is begining to show signs of oversteer - reduce rear antiroll by 5 N/mm in the F11 menu. Do this every couple of laps or when the tire temps change. For example, in my test stint on AS3 I didn't have to touch the rear arb until lap 20, then I reduced by 5, and then again on lap 25 - and left it like that until the end (lap 36)."

"This is a FZR setup for CTRA Race 3 server with GT2 restrictions. I have drive a lot lap records with it. Very stable and tyres are cool."

"This is a restricted FZR (28 % restriction) for use on CTRA Race 3 server in the GT2 class. So it's lower wings, shorter final drive, softer, R2 tires and so on. This set holds the track record at AS3 for FZR-GT2. Also runs endu races without problems and that's why it's in this category too."
