John: after Wednesday's Geezer night, I reviewed my settings for the Alpine A110 that ViperAl loves so much and which you spectated. It needed a couple of tweaks and I think that you may enjoy it. It is such a joy to drive. The updated tune is at the end of the replay video. Useful feedback from anyone who tests it is welcomed.

BTW, my lap time is less than half a second away from my ideal time, here. The car is that reliable.

(I still haven't figured out how to manually select a better still-frame for YouTube's videos...)

Ford Mustang Gr.3 Road Car preliminary settings

This is a general tune for the Mustang Gr.3 Road Car. It was tested on a variety of tracks. The default settings are OK, but this one is more versatile, even though I need more time to improve it further.

However, it was tuned on Sport Hard tires because the Sport Soft tires kill all feeling of its handling. I have never felt such a lifeless / numb car in GT7 as this one on Sport Soft tires. The difference was stark. If you feel the need for more grip than on Hards, I recommend no more than Mediums (I didn't bother even trying them). The weight of the car gives sooo much grip on Hards that you don't need more. Try them first.

I am not sure that I can make it early in the morning, so feedback to improve this tune is welcomed.

The problem with the brake I am still figuring out but I found a temporary solution. If you change the motor to "Compatible Mode" (purple) instead of "PS Mode" (Blue) the problem does not come up. When you change to compatible mode, the FFB lowers, but you can compensate with the in game mode (1 up in my case).
I have contact Fanatec Support and waiting for the answer.
