Best Nurburg lap times FF

[JackWilson]

Hi, would like to know what a good/decent lap time is for a FF car on Racing Softs.

After 4 laps I managed a 7:10.360 in my RM Golf, 506pp. I just want to know if it will be competative, thanks 👍

7:00 mins jeezus that quick lol
I thought i'd be lucky to break the 7:10 mark

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Managed a 7:26 or 7:25, I forget exacts in a Volvo C30 on S3s... Don't know how much quicker it'd go on R3s.

 

[XDesperado67]

Preparing to run the Volvo S60 T-5 Sport I'm currently tuning on Nürburgring using SS tires first then RS tires.
Not a great driver and its top speed is a bit limited so we'll see how low into the 7s I can get it.

I'll keep you posted.

I'd think the Type R RM's, ITR racecar, and Trial would do the best.
That poor Golf's probably maxed at 506pp isn't it?

I'm wondering what a maxed SRT4 could do, since they're so fast.

I have a maxed SRT4 on RS tires I can share if you want to make us all cry at our lack of talent CSLACR. I used this tune to win the Supercar Seasonal races. That said the transmission and LSD are horrible. Feel free to tinker with the settings if you do borrow it.

By the way Harvey Wallbanger's lousy driving was only able to get a 7:50.1xx on SS tires with the S60 as its currently tuned.(haven't finalized the tune so using a rolling test bed for this.)

 

[praiano63]

6'58" for my integra DC5, but the GVS tune is horrible on the ring. Must have a better car.
6'58" too Alfa romeo GT 3.2 V6 24V '04

I shouldn't be too fast, I usually go pretty easy on early runs.
But definitely put it up. 👍

It's up now with RS tires installed.
I've not fine tuned it so its rough and the transmission and LSD are horrible so don't blame the car blame the tuner!

Oh and as I said before feel free to tinker with the setup.

I've no idea how low this can go, but I'm sure low 6:30's are doable. ​

 

[XDesperado67]

Well now...I seriously doubt I'll ever get anywhere near that time with my SRT4.
Wonder how many other FFs can get close to that time?

 

[CSLACR]

IDK, this thing is fast as hell, obsiously it gets restricted by being FF, but 200+ mph by the front wheels is pretty good.

yep

Care to take a bit slower lap of Nürburgring in my Copen Active top? My best with it is 7:51.xxx would love to see how fast it really can go with a skilled driver instead of ole Harvey Wallbanger at the wheel.

6.44 in a focus ST (not by me but a mate)



my best is 6.51 in a Focus ST

Hmmm...the Focus RS is I believe a little faster than the ST so should get close on time with the SRT4.

I don't think it is 500 pp car, the focus go to 531+pp , the way he drive and eat the grass sometime, he will not do 7'00" under 500 pp.
At least it seems to me.

....snip.... (why posting the same vid 4 times in a row.....)

Sorry, but I must ask: SRF on?

I mean, have a look at the front tires and how the car reacts.

I'm pretty sure. The front tires are red almost the whole time, but the car doesn't understeer!?! It does obviously exactly the opposite, the front pulls like crazy in the corners. Not normal, I would say.......

SRF or not you will never do this time with any road FF at 500 pp. No way.

No one said it was 500pp.
I don´t know how much time you can gain on the `Ring with SRF on.
Maybe 15secs are possible.

Oh, I think when you've already done a 6:58, then I definitely think that some guys could drive a 6:45. Nothing against you! I know that you're a very good and fast driver (one of the fastest I've ever raced with). But I think you know that there's always a faster guy. Just have a look at the D1 Gold guys.......argh!

Hopefully, you understand what I mean.

You send a video with your car at 500 pp. I thought it was a reference. If there is no limits pp you can't compare anything.

SRF? don't know about this. If it take 15" on the ring ,it means that it's unfair and not to use.

 

[XDesperado67]

Agreed since CSLACR only managed to do 6:37 on an early try with an SRT4 that's running real close to 600PP.

Getting under 7 minutes by a little bit at 500PP I'll buy but not that far under, at least not without a lot of aid from somewhere.

Of course the OP didn't specify a PP limit just wanted to know competitive times.

Mine was a real 500pp car.
I took this car because Jack wants to know if he´s competitive with his 506pp RM Golf.

My only aid is ABS=1

I was also driving a 6:57 with Assassins 500pp Civic.

Yes this is the time for a good 500 pp. Me too ,around this 57" 58". A better driver like Madame CSLAR can shave some 5" to 10" i think ,but not a lot more.

 

[AssassinTuner]

500pp FF usually hits 7:10 to 7:15 for me. I can see just under 7 min with enough laps and good driving. I could certainly see 15 to 20 seconds gained with SRF. 500pp FF 6:45, yeah right. Most probably fully done up & with SRF, or Active Steer.

However that's life with GT5 no way to tell if SRF or Active Steer is on with certainty, this is applicable to every time ever posted by anybody ever.

Active Steer is the one nobody suspects, everybody usually thinks SRF when times are too quick, but active steer is more concealed, at times can cut substantial amounts off lap times.

Active Steer + Wheel = just as bad as SRF, but when analyzing a replay just about impossible to tell if it's in use.

For me this kills a part of GT5. All they need are indicators like TCS & ASM. I don't care if they are in the game, I want there use indicated in the replay, otherwise there is no certainty they are not in use, this includes times from the fastest D1, WRS, GT, doesn't matter. Not saying they use it but it's impossible to tell if they are or not.

Doesn't really matter since most people use ABS anyways... That's just another assist, and allows unrealistic driving techniques, makes braking effortless, the opposite of reality...

It's become pointless to get frustrated over a faster time.

 

[CSLACR]

That video is SRF quality, for sure.
It's possible the OP and or poster of the video didn't know SRF is frowned upon.

 

[velly]

I do believe that SFR was turned on, its still a good time.....its great fun taking the car out online and beating DTMs

yes the RS is quicker due to it being lights but i havent sent mine up fully.
