Hi from Brazil! I've never commented here before but I'm a long time fan of your tunes shaunm80. I'd like to add the Mazda 787B Stealth Model (696PP RH) in the hall of gold winnners. Really like this car.
In the intermediate level, if someone is finding it hard, I recommend the Nissan GT-R Concept (Tokyo Motor Show 2001) '01. It's a guaranteed gold price.
The Lotus Elise Type 72 '01 really grips a lot. o/
Hi and welcome. Glad to hear that you are a fan of my tunes. I have added these tunes to the list. I hope you keep enjoying the tunes in this garage and that they serve you well in future seasonal events.
 
Hello Shaunm80. I'm searching a good setting for VW Golf VI R 550pp Sport Hard to Sport Soft tyre setting range. Can you help me out? Thanks bro.

Hi fellas.

Just thoght i'd stop by to check up on you guys and your shenanigans.


Today i'm not doing to well.

Had to take my woofer to the vet yesterday to have her put down.


She began to show signs that made me realize the time i had been dreading had come.

She struggled to get up on the couch and the bed, lost her apetite and only drank water.


I'll miss her greatly as she was truly one of a kind.

Rest in peace my beloved furry friend.

All my condolences. It's never easy to prepare for this. That's why my wife and I decided to take another dog before we left our Athyna. It will be less difficult
Courage Lord
 
@LordJCS I am truly sorry for your loss. I have always been a dog lover myself, and looking at her picture makes me think what a great dog she must have been. May she rest in peace and may you find comfort in your grief knowing she had a great life with a great human friend.

Sorry to hear about your loss. It is always hard losing a pet/family member. I know it will be hard but I wouldn't be surprised if you miss the pitter patter of tiny paws and have a puppy before you know it.

We already miss it..

Me and my missus have already decided that there will be no more dog until we hit retirement age...

We will miss the "pitter patter" noise


That's the plan now.. Time will tell if we disregard from it...
 
It's really nice of you, my friend @shaunm80 , let your friends write stories about their lives that have nothing to do with GT6. I do not know much about you, but for the little that I see you're a good person. Congratulations sir for all the work you do for GT6 and what you bring to it.:bowdown: :bowdown: :cheers:

And congratulations also to people like @fordlaser777 , @svenhjs666 , @davidt33 , @TripleE63 , @chrisspeed281 , @LordJCS , @GhostRider65 , @Otaliema , @coryclifford @Lionheart2113 etc (my apologies to those I forget, there are so many) for your sympathy towards others and for your contribution to this site.:bowdown::bowdown: Without it you would not like it. It is a real pleasure of knowing you. Thanks at all :cheers: :cheers:

@LordJCS sorry to hear that you have lost a member of your family.
Smile and remember the best times with her.

That's the plan. I have so many fun and downright goofy memories of her. She won't be forgotten, that's for sure.



Not sure if liking a post about this was appropriate…

Sorry to hear it @LordJCS

It's ok.. It's not like we have the options that facebook has. So this will have to make do.

Thanks for your concern.

We're a tightly knit bunch of guys here that come from different walks of life.

I'm proud to be a part of this "family"
 
I've been learning to drive in chase cam mode which makes the Intermediate challenge a perfect venue. Here are some of your tunes easily capable of achieving gold. Cheers :cheers:

I am not sure if this car had an oil change or not. When setting up this car:
Add power parts first, weight reduction and additional ballast next and check that the PP matches what is stated for this tune. If it is incorrect, change oil otherwise leave it as it is.

A very smooth drive when you drive this sensibly. If you push it too far, it will let you know well before you reach a point that the car will spin on you. 2.09.8xx was my fastest time with this tune on the Ferrari Seasonal.

This version is more aggressive than the previous two. You can really push this car into corners and have fun with it. Occasionally, the rear tyres smoke up, a little slide will appear but its easily sorted out and you'll have a laugh with this car. Who says that german cars have to be smooth and precise? :)

The Beginner and Intermediate races are easy enough to beat though.
The Expert level races are the most exciting to me.

Yep, so the trick is to find the lowest pp car you can to win those beginner and intermediate events. Shaunm80's tunes are so good that I can usually drop 100pp on those events and still win somewhat easily.

If Shaun managed to tune some cars at 375pp, 425pp, 475pp then I'm sure we might be able to drop another 25pp and still win those events.
 
Absolutely, or you can drop to a lower tire, or drive in an unfamiliar camera view. :) Make the most of what PD gives us, you know, lemonade from lemons. :D

As we all know not all cars are created equally in the game so another good way to spice up the beginner and intermediate races is too find slow for their PP cars or C spec or D spec cars as I call them. And than run them under and with harder tires.
PP limbo is fun with the S spec. But having car that is a broken dog and winning can be more satisfying in some cases.
 
How do you tell if a car is c or d spec, as you call it? I know there are certain cars like the muira or gsx/r that are the "best" in their categories but I only know that from reading about them in Gtplanet and that those are the cars people turn to when doing the seasonal TT's.
