Did my first race with the D06, and was able to win. The track had really weird conditions where the sugar water turned to molasses due to the high humidity and rain we encountered mid day. The tires looked like glazed donuts after one run

The beginning of the race, the car oversteered, then felt just right, and understeered by the end. It was a bit hard to drive, but the car handled very well. I have a vid of that race, I'll put it up later.

The base setup I used was VBC racing shop's asphalt setup. I used a 2.5rear toe with 30wt(350cst) AE oil, 3hole. Due to the big bore (about 1mm bigger), you need to use a softer oil than conventional 3 hole setups.

VBC racing shop has a new setup using other options, so I'll wait till he chimes in.
