The BMW M3.
It doesn't care who you are. It doesn't care what you want. If its a race you want to win, I can tell you, it wont try to stop you. But to truly tap in to its hidden potential as a devourer of corners you will need a very particular set of skills. Skills you would acquire during a very long career. Skills that would make you a nightmare for who dares challenge the original king of sports cars.

How the hell can a car of its heft feel so nimble without having numerous computers and 4WD trickery helping it out? The BMW M3 remains one of the enigmas of motorsports, not unlike the Porsche 911. This car was tuned primarily for the touge but remains a highly capable track car.

Word to the wise:
It's heavier than most cars in it's class, but also more powerful. Power that if you apply too early, you will understeer. Weight that if not handled with care will send you careening to the nearest wall. This car will destroy anything on the Nurburgring, guaranteed. But on the Toscana mountain passes, you will need to approach with severe caution. Thank you for trying our tunes, please review đź‘Ť

I'm thinking of making this a Touge cruiser. An extra bit of power, and slightly reduced weight to not lose the feel of the car. And with 8 gears, it should make for some interesting tuning options, rally style 1-3 gears for getting off the line quickly and keeping pace with the lighter cars, then spread them out through 4-6 for speed and stability. 7th and 8th would be for high speed and drafting... that's gonna be tricky!
 
OP has been updated... is anyone having issues with the new layout? still testing it. On my laptop it appears there are many tabs missing but on my old man's desktop it looks as intended.

For the record: the current (new) layout isn't final. I'm testing out different formats. The end result should be a better organized, more accessible layout which allows easier access to browse the setups of your choice by creed.

Whether it's Touge, Wangan, Track or Drift, here at TheCardboardBox, we aim to supply your every motorsport need. Thank you choosing us, HAPPY DRIVING!!

Slender_Man Update VIII
Hey there guys it's been awhile since i last did one of these, But here's the low down.
As you guys may have noticed I have changed my GTPlanet ID from OSE_CAP_SHADOW to Slender_Man.... This is down to getting requests on my MCLA PSN account and not my GT5 PSN which are 1 underscore difference :guilty:.

As for tunes I'm going to keep it short with what's in progress:

Chevrolet Corvette Z06 - 600PP Wangan car
Lotus Esprit V8 SE - 550PP Wangan Car
Volkswagan Karmann Ghia - 400PP Track Car
Lamborghini Miura - 550PP Track Car (Once i get round to working my spare '67 Ticket)
Nissan GT-R - 550PP Touge Car
Subaru Impreza WRX - 500PP Touge Car

 
Hi everyone... I need some feedback on the current, experimental state of the OP (first, original, post).

It seems when I'm in preview mode, it shows up as intended, with my tunes and Slender's side by side. But on the final version, when i update the post, they appear one above the other.

How does it appear to you all?

ARRRRGGH, Matey... that's not at all what I'm trying to achieve. Back to Square One. Well, I'm off to work now anyways, so I'll do some brainstorming and see what I come up with, if anything at all lol.
 
Yeah, I see what you're trying to do. Alright, see ya.

EDIT: Just tried quoting it. You're right. It looks fine in preview.

Yeah, I don't really understand why it doesn't work but I won't stress it too much. I'll figure out a simpler method to achieve a cleaner and more user-friendly layout.
 
I'm still waiting for that IS F, SolidSnake. lol

But if you're busy, then that's fine. Take your time. đź‘Ť
