AERO
- Fixed aero package — Ginetta G40 has no adjustable wings or diffuser; stock production aero only. Brake ducts: N/A (not adjustable on this model)
KEY SETUP NOTE
- The G40 is low-powered and momentum-dependent — Craner Curves must be taken flat or near-flat, so a touch of extra rear ARB stiffness and slightly firmer rear dampers are prioritized over outright rotation to keep the rear planted through the downhill sweepers; sacrificing some front bite elsewhere is worth it for confidence through this section.
TRACK GUIDE
- Melbourne (T1): Brake hard but straight-line only — trail braking unsettles this chassis; get back to power early for the long run to Craners
- Craner Curves: Commit flat-out or lift minimally — this is where lap time is won; a stable rear through here lets you carry huge speed into Old Hairpin
- Old Hairpin (T4): Late apex, prioritize traction on exit over entry speed — the climb punishes a bad exit severely due to low power
- Coppice (T6): Keep it smooth and progressive on throttle — any snap here costs major time onto the back straight, the fastest part of the lap
- Goddards (T9): Sacrifice a little entry speed for a clean, early throttle application — this feeds the main straight and is the biggest overtaking/lap-time opportunity
// Theoretical Best
1:30.500
— optimal sector composite, dry track, soft tyres, low fuel, single hot lap simulation
// Real World Record
No official record (Ginetta G40 Cup lap records vary by season; approx. 1:32–1:34 region in period racing, no single ratified record)
// Sim Record
1:29.800
