Hello and welcome. We are a racing team Called Silver Dragon racing. We have formed a Gran Turismo division and are actively recruiting for the team, if your interested in joining, please click on any tune From Silver Dragons here(not watering hole) and you will be taken to our team site.
Fbbcarrs924 has joined the team and his garage will be merged into Silver Dragon Tuning.

We will be providing tunes that are set up ABS 1 only and tunes for some cars that use SRF and TC 1 as they all need little bit different set ups to be as effective as thy can be.

As a blanket statement for all our cars with the exception of Chassis reinforcement and aero kits we will install all top end parts that do not add PP to the car. Semi Racing Fly wheel, Twin Clutch, Fully Customizable Transmission and Suspension, LSD, Torque sensing center diff on AWD cars, Carbon Drive shaft, Chasssis and aero car and will be listed if installed. Tires/Tyers will be listed by car for the tune.

If you want a custom tune just put a request in here and we will work on it for you.
We will work out details on the tune requirements in PM.

Some of use km/h for our speed and trans settings use a Google converter to get MPH rounded to the nearest 10 mph for trans set up. check 6th gear to make sure you have the range near the short end of the gear (highest number) if you don't go down on your TS setting.

I (otaliema) use short hand frequently so here is a quick glossary of terms just to prevent any head scratching.
WRx = Weight Reduction 1,2,3
ETx = Engine Tuning 1,2,3
PL = Power Limiter
BB = Brake Balance
(x)/xx = anything in parenthesis are unchangeable stats such as front Aero with a rear wing.
S = Sports parts
SR = Semi-Racing parts
R = Racing parts
TK x= Turbo Kit L=Low RPM M=Mid RPM H= High RPM
SC = Super Charger
RH = Ride height
FD= Final Drive
TS= Top Speed

A message from Fbccars924 about his section of the garage here;
Welcome to Hole shot Performance, Formerly Watering Hole Tunes. I am Fbccars924 and I love to tune and race. As such, I like to setup my own cars for the most fun in a lap. I crave speed and a close race. Feel free to test out some of the old tunes from the Watering Hole and watch for newer and better tunes coming soon.

This will car was set up with SRF ON and TC1. I was able to drive it effectively with out SRF, I found it to be very tight to the track, but if you break the car lose it was very wild and very hard to control.
It will run 1:22's on Trial Mountain it's a fun drive if the tires are not screaming and turning red your not driving it hard enough. It likes to hug the track and be a little sideways in turns it will take a high speed corner with the best of them and feint a S bend like a rally car.
It's an easy car to drive, and a hard car to drive to it's most. Trial Mountain can be done in the low 1:24's with out sliding the tighter corners with this set up.

The transmission is set up for maximum top speed with maximum accel with out drafting with a little extra room for drafting. Adjust the FD for the track if less speed is needed. This will pull 1:45:xxx on Tokyo R245 with clean driving.

I updated the NSX-R to be at 600pp for seasonal races that it can enter. it's almost as fast as the full maxed out car. pulling high 1:24's on Trial Mountain, while the maxed out car can pull low 1:24's there.

This car will kill you in 2nd and 3rd gear if you mash the throttle out of corner, be nice to it or be ready for sideways driving.

Looks like you got a good Stable of cars already. I can and will attest that the 1st NSX is a brutal Monster that you think will kill you but, no it's much more sadistic than that. It makes you think you're going to die then brings you back and just laughs at you to say "not this time, you're still mine".
 
Thank you :) that NSX is a crazy ride, I re did the tranny on the update i think if i where to ride it IRL i wouldn't be able to pull my head off the head rest. I think i made it more of a monster with a little less twisted in it, this time it will put you in the wall lol.

This monster will easily over take pure breed race cars of the same PP level, just have to learn to corner in it and you can have a lot of fun with her. She will take you for a ride right to the grass or the wall if your not nice to her.

This is a dang good car will beat anything in the classic car Seasonal.
Fun to drive holds a line well and likes to power slide just as much as it likes to stick the turn. Just don't over drive the car. It feels more like a cruise than a race with this lady. Treat her well and she will reward you with a win.
I found that this tune works very well with SRF off or on. I have two different transmissions for the car. Transmission one is a quick acceleration and a decent TS second is a good acceleration and great TS set up.

Note if your breaking the car in as you race set the Power Limiter and adjust ballast as needed to stay in the 500PP range, set it as far back as possible while keeping the 47/53 weight balance of the tune.

Gran Turismo Ford GT LM Spec II test car 683 PP 826hp 1165kg RS, SRF Off TC Off ABS 1

I tuned a full bore GT Ford GT Spec II this time around.
Over hauled the transmission from the 600 pp version it's a very fast car 1:17:xxx on Trial Mountain.
This car is very very picky with tires some settings must be adjusted if you change compounds. These settings with have RS and RH settings listed.

Shift points are again important on this car
1-4 7800 RPM

This keeps the car in the main power band for the speed your traveling. You can adjust the FD to the track but gear it longer than you need so you have the space to use the upper part of the power band in 5th and 6th with out losing it in the last 600 rpm.

Did this to my 13 Viper in GT6. Nice results, still needs a bit of tweaking though. Thanks. Good set up.
 
Hope this all works out. I will be closing up my thread here on GTP so Hole Shot will now be found here. The Previous tunes will still be available at the old thread. I do have two tunes that I need to put up here. Coming soon: Suzuki Espresso and Lotus Elise 111R/T

Final FD setting: 4.616 Note: can be adjusted to suit track.
Displayed TS @ above setting should be 200mph/ ~321KM/H

This car is a hoot and a half to drive. Very fast even sideways. It has a tendency on Uphill sections to understeer due to the light nose and no front downforce. But, It will hold it's own against some mean cars. Good for a 1:33.xxx on Trial mountain in my somewhat capable hands.

Light, nimble, quick and Savagely so. Don't under estimate this peashooter, it will put your eye out if not careful. High 1:30's at Trial Mountain but Low 1:00's at Tsukuba. This car is more than at home on tight technical circuits but is a tad slow for the bigger and faster courses. Giver her a go. On share now.

Thank you FB great tunes as always.
Getting them linked into the main as soon as I can. GTP doesn't like my phone recently
 
I need to use the computer to edit the main post. so will be late morning till I can update with all the tunes from hole shot. bear with me FB I'll get ya loaded in.

This is an easy drive the car rotates great has exceptional get up and go. The drive was so easy I thought SRF was turned on for some reason had to check to be sure. lol
Enjoy the ride.
 
Added two new tunes to the list today. Lotus Elise 111R '04 on SH tires.
It's fast fun and actually stable if you can beleave that for a Elise it's like it's got glue on the tires and as always it drives like it's on rails.
 
I do not understand the gears.What do FD and TS stand for ? I'm trying to figure it out but the , for example 1st gear , atm will only go up to 3.199 but you have 3.226 so I know I'm doing something wrong. Thanks.
 
Sorry for the long reply my notification for my email where not working correctly -_-
FD is final Drive
TS is Top Speed.
For the transmission set your final drive to the stated number than set your top speed slider to the stated number than you can set gears.
 
I have switched over to GT6 for game play. FBCcars is still playing GT5 so the garage is still open and you will see some new tunes from time to time. Please vist our home site to see all our active tunes.
Thank you for visting SDT We hope you enjoy your drive with the tunes
 
At this time all active tuners for SDRGT have moved to GT6, we will continue to support any tune we have posted here in our GT5 garage but we will not be posting any new tunes for GT5. Thank you for support of the garage and see you in GT6.
