Ghostrider calm down, no one is laughing at you.

I haven't noticed any problems with grip in the rear with the new Beta either. For me it seems like each new version the kart balance changes a bit to give MORE rear grip as others have said.

I don't believe that you have tried every setup change available. The seat adjustment like Piboso mentioned should fix your problem immediately. Don't focus on trying to get down to the same lap times you had in previous Betas. You may never get there if the handling has changed slightly with each update.

Your setups will need to be redone probably to adapt to the new tire parameters. Or you may need to adjust your driving style like any driver would in real-life when there is a change in the tires.

understand this.....but.....when the grip changes so much than something is wrong because karts are created to have grip....and not drive like on ice.....thats my problem......when it is so that 42.3xx is only ONE lap and the rest is 43.xxx then i understand but thats not realistic......because i drive the same times in qualify and in race (in real life)...often i drive in race even faster times because i dont must think about it because i am in fights and so on....at the european championship i was 13d place at qualifying and the race i won because i dont think at times....but in beta 3 i think all the time that in the next corner i do a donut because the grip is so low...in beta 2 i dont have this problem......dont understand this.....sorry for bad english

GhostriderPl i am sorry if you understood it that way. There is alot i can learn from you.  I only wish i was as fast as you.  Just undestand that the SIM is changing.  It is in BETA (not final).  changes are drastic and frequent.  expect inconsistant times until everything as been dialed in to perfection. Agian sorry for the misunderstanding.
Yes your are right about lap times dropping off.  Have you played with the pressures? they drop off quick so i lower them
