Here's some real life cars close to the Gold times of 67 seconds, ( see FastestLaps.com ). The 450 PP standard as set by PD is correct. In case anyone's interested in verisimilitude over GSX arcade performance.

I spent close to 300,000 to max out a Suzuki Alto Lapin and got down into the 1:10s with around 410 PP, and NO smoky tire shredding like the top two replays show. Kind of a fun neutral handling 4wd car.

Congrats ... nice photo of your new 'baby' and good work on the different
Tsukuba car performances đź‘Ť.
Guess the top two cars have sth like a 150 kW e-engine at each wheel :eek:.
 
After and after more laps I could only win 0'014 seconds on my record pfffffff :crazy: . 1'01'644
Great tune dude, thanks for sharing. I am sitting at 1:2.923. I am unable to get the torque and HP ratings you are running (I am running at 119 lb/ft of torque and you are at 157 lb/ft). Any suggestions on how you got that torque setting under 450 PP?

Thanks a lot @SRafay for having tested and used this car. I don't known why you have 119 Ib/ft and not 157 Ib/ft.
Thanks again @SRafay

Still trying to figure it out, so any nuggets of insights would be greatly appreciated. I think that roughly 32% boost in torque will help get through the corners faster, maybe get in the 1.1s (though almost a full second looks like a tall order right now).

Maybe you have forget to change oil or forget ballast.
 

Same time I had on Monday. Appears you are using a controller, if so well done.

Also looks like you are using a tune from a longer track as you only use 3 gears, 2, 3 and 4. Is that your preference here?

Sometimes it's worth lengthening the Final gear so that all the gears can be used, and adjusting the FG only will not change the original gear setting and you can just adjust back down to what it was.
You may well know all that however maybe there are some who are unaware of it.

Anyway good run, cheers.
 
Not going with GSX crowd, I used Mazda RX8 prototype for 1:05.458 ...might some other cars, but this is good now...lol

Yeah, I always work my way up to the Gsxr doing these, it's just boring going for the Gsxr right off the bat, and this is coming from a Suzuki fan :/
I tried my '93 Silvia S13 here and it did a 1.05.3! These time trials can be fun opportunities to find cars you would normally overlook within this pp range, especially the older cars.
 
Last time this TT ran I used the Dino for 1m05.0xx, managed to hit a 1m02.9 this time, target achieved.

Instead of leaving though I ventured over to the darkside and ran the GSX for a 1m01.0xx using @praiano63 's tune. I like to say getting under 1m01 is a target but the sound of the gixxer is more annoying than getting rammed by them in QM's so we'll see.
