Wallbanger's 2nd Annual FF Summer Shootout

Onboy123
Eh, it's fine, though I might prefer to run my own gearbox since, being a shootout, it seems better to run with a car that's 100% my own work. Just mild paranoia, I suppose, but just in case.

Neither do I, I must be sniffing something when I typed that. ;) :lol:

Sorry again. The car has been sent and I will not be near a PS3 for awhile. So if someone can write down your settings and send them to Roland that would be great.

Hey, Onboy, you're not meant to defect to the enemy!:grumpy::dopey: Well, considering your recent list of "things to do", I guess you need help getting things done before you leave for Taiwan, right?

He just can't resist the power of stupidity :dopey:

Sorry for making you go back and forth with this…I should leave a massive size 7 post informing you all of the plans for my car if I'm planning on leaving any time soon. :lol:

It's just the transmission, I got all the rest the way you asked. Plus I prefer you use your tranny settings, because mine are better :dopey:
 
I'm starting round 2 testing now.

I will eventually get to Group A cars but for now G:B R2 and the '86 Shootout take priority.

Just wrote down the 8 finalists and their vehicles. First thought: how eclectic. One of each car, except the Kusabi. "Best of the best." Comes to mind. Cool.

Will edit with results:
(T1 : first round through on the unfamiliar track. Fi : final times.)

Desperado: CRZ:
Krenkme: Vitz:
ACSR421: Kusabi:
Trackripper123: Kusabi: 2:12.963 (T1)
Theo777: Micra:
Onboy123: Jazz: 2:15.692 (T1)
Johnyboy532: CRZ:
Moparisgod: 500:

Notes:
OnBoy:
Trail-breaking is impossible, any turning of the wheel while breaking just results in loss of break grip.
Far too long of gears. Going from past the red line in second to third it sometimes will bog so badly it loses 500rpm.

I tried not too, but I laughed.

It's not over till the skinny-a$$ Marine sings. (Oh yes, and the other drivers too. ;) )
 
The Jazz is Onboys....it was just painted that way for... ummmm...I'm not sure :dopey:.....white makes it go faster :D
 
What's really the issue here is that I know, 70/80% sure, that that's how it'll end up. :lol: The Jazz doesn't have much business up there, really.

For a quick check of the tune, just check the diff settings, it's 5/10/5. I doubt Krenkme would be that insane and use those extreme numbers on sports hard tyres. Yet.

Relax it's your tune...aside from the paint and transmission :dopey:
 
Double checked the Jazz. It matches your new settings. Now... if I could only remember which tracks? Too many shootouts!

Ok, Road Course Daytona and
Eiger Norwand W Trail? Sounds right.

Edit: OMG. I do not know this track! (Daytona) I'm too embarrassed to show my times, lol. Can I just list the fastest to slowest?

2:18.746 probably isn't the target time you're looking for, lol.

Edit2: Harvey, you're a cruel (censored) to make me drive this track.

Don't take your first lap as the lap time you post, there's a good 20mph to be found from using the 1st lap as a rolling start. :P That's 2+ seconds. At least, I think.
 
Hey Roland you'll need to hold off on testing my CR-Z for a bit longer as I've not finished tweaking the settings. Pretty sure the one I have on share currently would be bouncing off the rev limiter around the banked sections.

Road Course - Daytona is definitely a different track from just about any other. The hardest part for me is getting the turn off the start/finish section of the oval onto the road course section. Braking properly from top speed on the slight bank to hit the transition to the flat track while getting the car to rotate into the the decreasing radius turn can be a real 🤬:lol: This track should really show the difference between those who have good setups and those who have great setups.:crazy:
 
And those drivers who are skillful and those who are all talk.

I'm (censored). Lol

Its a fun course. I've never enjoyed it before but the only races I remember are with a FGT and NASCAR. Neither of which I like to drive against AI.

So far I only have one Round 2 car to test. It drifts beautifully into that corner. 30% of the time, the other 70% I'm chewing grass. It's great fun when I hit it. As I get more cars and variable styles I'll understand the track better.

This shootout rocks. It's like a couch cracking the whip on mile 26 of a marathon, "You call that pushing! You don't know how to push a car! Now give me 27 more miles."
 
I updated the settings of both tunes and placed them on share for Round 2. I'll have the tune revisions posted soon.

@Ronald and Motor City: I don't have a second Insight at the moment but I do have a '03 Micra. Its ended up with 1hp more power and 2kg more weight at 430pp. I applied some power limiting of 99.8% and was able to reach the proper 200hp/902kg. I'll send that right away! :dopey:

Car should be on share with the above listed settings in the next 10 minutes or so.👍👍
 
Note for my "Katana" people driving with a manual transmission may have issues with the gears as I set them up using an automatic transmission and they may require to many gear changes mid corner when driving manual.

Also I have no clue how my adjustments will affect its performance on Eiger Nordwand W as I didn't take the time to test there.:dunce: Turn in and overall handling on tarmac should be a bit crisper than they were though.
