I,ll review the Audi Pikes Peaks quattro '03 in a few

That explains it. No worries. I'm thinking of creating the Banners for the Tommy Kaira and Vibe tonight. I've been a bit lazy on that. I'm also trying to figure out the two cars I promised would be here in the garage. I cant seem to figure out what to do to them. The R390 is stable in stock form, I changed the gearing around a bit, but I think thats all I'm going to be able to do. And the Pajero, I'm debating on whether or not to make it a rally truck, or a racer. Its got the gearing for both, but I cant decide what to do past that.
Any Insight on that T?

’88 Supra review
Please understand that I'm a relative newbie at the game, and my driving style (especially drifting) must account for much of the confusion. Also, I hate this course (Infineon Sports) with a passion; 2 or 3 of the crests are just nasty, and 2 of the hairpins have such restricted visibility that I invariably enter 20mph slower or faster than I should.
Drift version:
Understeer was a severe problem for me. I watched the car slam into the same two corners every time, either just before or just after the ghost car. I'm no tuner but it seems like absence of brake power hurts the car, in addition to the twitchy suspension.
I managed to get more than 10 seconds off the suggested time (I presume this time was a typo error), but was still not drifting the car, just using it as a gripper with some convenient sliding. I had all sorts of problems initiating drift on R3s, and tried S3s, which simply couldn’t cope with the acceleration, and were disastrous for braking.
This car was an entertaining drive for me, cause I really had to pay attention or risk sliding off the road. I’ve kept the drift settings on the car, so when/if I learn to drift properly I’ll post my methods and results.
Grip version:
Even though I’m a grip driver, this setup gave me worse times and bigger headaches than the drifter. All was well and good until 2/3 of the way round a corner, when the back end gave way and I’d be lucky to do only 180 degrees of sliding. I tried an original (though rather ‘conventional’
grip setup and immediately smashed the previous times, though I’m unsure whether this is due to different driving styles or not.
For both tunes the gears seem rather strange. 1-3rd seem too short and all six seem too close together. I tried Tranny trick -> Final 3.9 (I think) and that seemed much more usable, though second and third could still have been longer. I don’t have time to test my gear setup vs yours, but would love to see a comparison of ¼ mile, 0-100 and time to top speed between the two.
Summary:
Drift version is an entertaining ride. Not terribly fast but will keep you on your toes and is fun to drive when you get the swing of it.
Grip version didn’t do it for me, but all the testing made me tune my own version of the car that goes like the clappers. I had never even noticed this car before, but now have two fairly good tunes to play with. Thank you!

Thanks for the Review.
I'm sorry if the drift version confused you alittle. I tend to drive it really hard it go straight past the redline alot, because I have an abundance of cash ingame I can readily buy a brand new one and apply the settings.
But I guess you could swap the braking out for the grip brakes to smash it noseforward and break traction on the rear. When I drive it, it seems to do what I like it to.
I encourage to come back and try it out again when you've gained a bit more skill in GT4, It make work a little better for you.
The twitchy handling is what I like about it the most.
And for the 1/4 mile comparisons. I'll go do those tomorrow and see what I get. I might end up making some better gearing for it too.
Again. Thanks for the review. It's much appreciated.
Oh, btw, since that first time was posted I've gotten better times with it. somewhere like 1:30:XX

Woo thread revival.
Sorry about not doing anything for a while. I've been busy failing summerschool.
I'll have a month starting Monday to start working on cars again. Then its back to regular school, which means there will be another lull in production.
Anyways. sorry for not making anything for the past six weeks. Stupid summerschool.

I might take a part in this if you let me. I can invite my Corvette Z06 from the 2.3 Championship eons ago (albeit slightly tweeked.) as well as my SLR, also from the Champ. and tweeked. Some other ideas on the ground floor include my 705 horse, 234 mph Superbird and perhaps my decimating drag car FTO, all if you want me to post.

Hi.
Is there any chance of a BMW 3Seris (not the M3, I just can't remember the proper name) tha is a pure track racing car, like the touring cars in WTCC and BTCC?
Money is no object to me, so I will buy anything for it.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Could you PM me the setup incase I forget to check back here. Thanks.

S'all good though, I'll get the settings jot down in a few days.

Sure. I'll get right on that after I release something that I've been working on for the past few days.
It would be nice If I knew exactly what car you were looking for. But I'll try and find it anyway.
Another thing. What do you want it tuned for? I do mainly drift. But I have tried to venture into grip a few times. Just haven't gotten it right though..
Which will it be?
- 2,587
Well ok then, I shall give it a try some time tonight. I'm sure I'll nail the drift setup first then I'll get the grip one down.
I got a new PS2!And GT4 works! More tunes from me, and if thats a good thing I don't know, but any way, yay!
AWESOME! Now the garage can get back up and running. I'm glad to hear you got a new PS2.
- 2,587
Well go ahead and post it up and if its the right one then I'll go ahead and tune it as well.
Also sweet Minolta tune, at least I'll finally be able to drive past the 300mph barrier haha.
Wait! I found it. Its a BMW 320i its 450k. But go ahead and post up the 330i as well. I'll post up a Z4 when I get around to finishing it.

The car is designed for end-all be-all decimation on racing tires. The car exhibits some understeer on braking but with throttle application or mild let-off will have better turn-in. The car on these settings can generate sub '50.000's at Tsukaba. (I ran a '48.008 after 3 laps.)
Any criticm, even negative, is welcome. Here's to some good settings.
