Hey Jerome, not sure if your still tuning at the moment or if life is getting in the way (don’t you hate that!). If you do fancy a project I’d love tunes for either the Renault 5 turbo or the Clio v6 on sports hard around spa. Those hot hatches are fun and the clip reminds me of the good old days of gt5p - the punters car of choice!!

This car is loads of fun, especially here. Outside of missing breaking points, the only thing to mention is to lift for the left part of the tight chicane after T1 and lift slightly again for the following right. Otherwise, business as usual

Tuning Notes:
I came to realize that this is my favorite car in Gran Turismo, I recall trying to tame this beast on the rally tracks in previous GT titles. If you can drive this car on dirt, you can literally drive anything on dirt. Everything is amplified in this car; the downforce, the turbo lag, she's great.
Some tips about driving here so you don't pull your hair out. That first real jump as you enter turn 4, try to take it flat out and as straight as possible, plus slightly left of center. Next, I wish to god you could install a turbo lag in her, it'd turn the fun dial up to 11, but alas... For the flat, fast section after coming downhill, be sure to fully brake and recover before you begin that sharp hill. Otherwise, you'll get turned 90 degrees.
For the BIG jump, just brake as you enter the crest so the car is either close to center or slightly leaning forward as you land. And of course, watch out for the barriers, don't take a header on the 2nd to last turn while 3 seconds up on your best lap
She'll go sub 2:50 stock, with practice.Jerome

Tuning Notes:
I wanted to come up with a harder to tune car and the first thing that came to mind was the S-10 license test. Only I had enough at Spa, so I took her to The Mountain. Then I realized it was in the trailer, so much for originality. Anyway, she's fun and I found that having TCS on 1 is basically the same as TCS 5 🤷♂️ Be sure to have her settled before you reach the apex as you start the descent down. If you want some wheelie good fun, try a warm up lap with the default setup

Hey guys, small update. My mother passed away last week, so I have lots of work left to do with all that, so I'm not sure when I'll get back to tuning. Hopefully in a week or two. Hit me up with requests as I will be back

So sorry to hear Jerome, thoughts are with you and your family at this time
Can not thank you enough for this tune!!! Finally got the win. Love the little BAC race car. The description said it was like driving a road legal Formula 3, I believe it. I'll check out any tune you have; it seems you like an aggressive driving style too.BAC Mono '16 - 648.59PP

Running with TCS 1 means you don't need ASM and CSA. You can enable them both if you want to for added confidence. Remember, you can overdrive a car, and she'll punish you if you do

This is one of the harder cars to tune at this track. The Glen requires good fast speed turns and good low-to-mid-speed turns. But for a car made in '68 I think I found a sweet spot for it.

Okay so getting a sub 1:40 proved to be a challenge for me, then after taking a small break, it really came together and got the 39.5. In typical FR fashion, timing your trailbraking is crucial in her so you can get pointed out nearly straight and floor it asap. There's some roll to her, so be sure not to be late on your braking zones.

One of the most iconic cars of all time, let alone in Sim Racing. I had to take her to the Mountain for old times sake
She's as compliant as you wish your significant other was. You really have to be careless to over drive her, so have fun with the nostalgia.Jerome

Tuning Notes:
So I installed the typical non-engine upgrades, tires and her PP went over 300PP much to my surprise. I started out with a 2:01 lap and thought it was pretty good-ish. I then proceeded to slash times over the next hour to get her down to a 1:51.203. The first four turns you can take flat out, even the one thats just past the T1 lap timer. Shift late and don't miss a braking zone. For the final kink, shift down into 3rd and keep her at about 53mph+ as you hit the rumble strips on the right.
