For the most part this one has been a lot of fun for me as well, aside from some drivers antics...A few cars I've enjoyed driving in the 1:13 at 600pp Deep Forest event.
If you want to keep with faster drivers in fast cars or want to shame some dirty drivers...
- Nissan Skyline GT-R M-Spec Nur (R34) '02 (amazing smooth engine, very stable even with ~700bhp at ~1300kg, needs fairly strong settings to turn in with DS3)
- R390 GT1 Road Car (Solid Yas Marina Blue with a bright red rear wing, Calsonic style, 575bhp 1092kg)
- Nissan GT-R SpecV '09 (actually using a rain setup from Art of Racing Grand Championship, with a bit stronger brakes)
- Nissan Concept 2020 Vision Gran Turismo (boost everywhere the outside rear lets you!)
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage '10 (slow in my hands with a random guess tune but with all the aero parts, is a sorely missing GT3 class Aston!)
Takes a while to write out tunes for so many cars. Generally, seasonal event TRL style tuning works. Soggy suspension, high noses, loose LSD, old school transmission trick for close gearing, 85-95% power limiter, only ballast as a last resort. If the car has downforce, you generally want as much on the front as possible and reduce the rear until you find the final 2 corners easiest. (Although I run 5 points below max at the front with max rear on NSX-R....it's a special car.)
- Honda NSX-R Prototype LM Road Car (OK, it's OP)
- TommyKaira ZZII (lots of people are slow mid corner but it blasts out due to 620bhp+ for just 920kg
Cars I want to try:
Deep forest is a track I've always loved. Ramming, laggy noobs just give me more time to admire it. There's no penalty for me, here. 👍
- McLaren F1 '94
- TVR Cerbera Speed 12 '00 with a tune @Draggon recommended to me recently (slightly adjusted for DS3 and S3 tyres)
- Lamborgini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce '09 (@Ed_Night tune I think, with tweaks for S3 tyres, used in a Datsun Academy side event Road to Rio)
- Ford GT40 Mark I '66 (not sure I can handle it at 600pp but kudos to the drivers getting solid, clean results with it)
- Pagani Zonda R '09 (the rear detail is jaw-dropping to look at...if you can see through the smoke!)
- McLaren MP4-12C '10 (rocket ship at 550pp)
- KTM X-BOW Street '12 or R 15th Anniv '12 (used these at 580pp in Apricot Hill TT long ago on S1 tyres?)
no I'm dinno 13.Ask to kossie my driving style.
We race every day from 14 to 16 ,come in our room. dinno13 room or devilroby27 room
Deep forest
Had a go in 550pp-ish F40, wanted to see how it behaved, it was suprising, two 1m17.2 laps and scraped just under 4 minutes.
Gonna have a few more goes with it as it is before I chicken out of adding any power parts
The bugger took some finding
No oil change or improved rigidity. The tune doesn't work with chassis strengthening.
Supercharger with 94.8 limiter and 110kg@40. 3.81kg/bhp. 237bhp and 905kg.
Maximum downforce. I added an aftermarket spoiler to increase it to 520 on the rear. 200 on the front.

^ All as Praiano tuned it.
Gearbox is a work in progress and I'll likely never be happy with it. I'm not a tuner...
I'm not sure if I went with 5000 or 5500 initial final gear but I think it was 5000. 5500 if the ratios don't match...
3.087
2.291
1.786
1.429
1.183
4150 final
The gearbox was never set up right but it worked ok at the Cape Ring QM for me. You'll probably need to tinker with the ratios for Tsukuba though.
