All cars are driving with tunes from @shaunm80

All races are easy wins with his tunes .




 
Here we go : Beginner Event can be won with all your 450 PP Cars easy and the Intermedidate Event is also easy to win with the good 500 PP Cars ( Hond NSX, Nissan GT-R , Lambo Gallardo , Ferraris , BMW M3 and M4.........) The Expert Event at Laguna Seca can be won with your GT 500 Stealth Models ( Honda NSX and Nissan GT-R ) from Page 58 if the TS030 is not the Rabbit :) ..... Super GT Cars are faster than Touring or GT3 Cars and the 2J is very fast ( Laps 1:18..no wonder)
 
Looks like our medium(@chrisspeed281 ) got his wish yet again. Truth be told, i had hoped to see some sort of racing car event as well since my garage is filled with all kinds of fire breathing race cars in that pp bracket.


As for the other two events i have a basic idea of what to use.

450pp:Normal

Ferrari Dino is definitely going to get to stretch it's legs.
Lotus Elise (111R '04 and the Elise '11 full aero)
Honda NSX-R '02

And for good measure i'm going to use my own Renaultsport Clio V6 '00
Maybe even a Lancia Stratos for some giggles.

-----------------------------------------

500pp:Normal

BMW M4(regular) gonna keep it as is which means i'll be using SH instead of SS
Honda NSX-R '02
Some of the C.O.T.M Maserati's i tested a while back
Honda S2000
Lotus Elise 111R '04 (based off of the 450pp version)

And one of my own tunes.
Toyota FT-86 Concept '09 (the one i used on the Sierra TT a while back)

-------------------------------------------


So now you know what i'll be using.

:cheers:
 
All lists updated. I have so far used the Subaru BRZ S '12 and the BMW M4 Coupe on SS tyres for very easy wins. I think my driving skill is going on GT6 though. I keep trying to the the R1 paddle for braking as the PS4 controller is different for those driving games and I keep missing my braking zone.. I think its about time I started to emulate my PS3 controller and maybe I will become faster in the process. :)

You can add Mazda Roadster '07 for both 450 and 500 for cake walk wins. I'm refining the tune for 500 on mine before I post them. I had the lead in the 450 beginner race lap 2 just after the jump and that's prolly due to my spin out in the second hair pin on the first lap :lol: what I got over zealous and tried to pass two cars in one turn. and the intermediates races i am taking the lead on lap 3 into 4 on the front straight. 👍
 
I hate to admit it, but I'm having a blast driving the VIZIV GT VGT around Laguna lol. I've made some adjustments to incorporate better rotation on this seemingly FF racer, but it seems to follow the "point and shoot" method quite well. I've only achieved bronze so far with the VIZIV, but its a blast nonetheless. I'm sure someone with faster hands could gold this event against the McLaren F1 GTR-BMW with your tune on this track
 
@Otaliema

I've tested your ZZII tune and have some results for you.

A bit of a wierd setup tbh. That resulted in a car that seemed unsure about what it wants to do. Didn't respond as well as i'd like due to 2 major things. Firstly: The gearbox.. The spread was all over the place. That meant it was close to impossible to be on the right gear at the right place. This caused major understeer where one don't need nor want understeer. Then the LSD. That caused some oversteer that if you're not careful, it will catch you off guard. I felt that this car was out for blood. My blood!

Nevertheless, i managed to take it by the scruff of it's neck and force it into submision so to speak. Took me a good 5-6 laps to work out what the car wanted. At the end of it all i slammed in a solid time of 1:58.924.

I'm sure i could bring the time down further if the car was more balanced.

So in conclusion: It's a car that requires alot from it's driver. When you understand the car it will reward you with a solid time that'll put a big smile on your face. The tune is definitely capable of fast times no doubt about that.

It just has some wrinkles that needs to be sorted.

:cheers:
 
@LordJCS Thank you sir, the gearing eh? I can fix that I'll watch some of the higher up replays and note speed at each section of the track.
The idea behind the car as you figured out was to brake it to the apex and slam the gas and the car will just spin around. Based on what you and @cbarbosa have said I need to rework the LSD a bit and smooth out the weight transfer.
Thank you much

@Soren Jacquet that's a fun way to drive if you can control the car :D *i can't control them sideways for the record*

A drifting Renault. Not surprising that thing has got excellent rotation. The engine is in the right place for a start.

Im not overly sold on this particular vision GT car. It seems a little too odd. I mean, FF on a 4wd system.. what the... but besides from that. I think I got the most of the tune for the moment. Hopefully they can resolve the 4wd system issue and then Ill do a even better tune for it. :)

Agreed I tossed a tune on it got it spinning on a dime but it has no lap time cause I can't keep the wheels from lighting up like a torchlight. I'm hoping the FF but is a bug or a miss program on Subarus part.

Thank you for that. All these cars have been added to the list.

Nice win in the TVR. That car is epic in many ways. Also, glad the hairdresser car is doing its business well. Did you paint it pink for full effect? :)

@cbarbosa - 350PP CM.. That is impressive.. you must have pushed that car to the limits!
Click to expand...

Strangely the car fitted perfectly on the race/track, the only issue was the low HP, had to block the Camaro for 2 laps... :crazy:

Was leader on lap 3... Lovely little car, even on CM no understeer and very agile... And the little Turbo sound is so fun! :lol:

👍

PS: Was curious about the Zonda LM for a long time, so bought and almost stock into the seasonal. Drives really nice... Always knew it was a great car...
