Does anybody have a good tune for this car?

I was playing with it this morning, and it performs quite well at 530pp. It completed smashed all other cars in the le sarthe track in the 530pp 4wd seasonal. Completely untuned (But with all mods limited to %76)

I mucked around with the tuning. But not sure what to do to make it handle better.

I'm planning to run it on as low a pp as possible to get max cash. I came first by 20 seconds at 530pp without cutting corners. So I reckon I can get it to 470pp and still win. Maybe lower if I cut the corners...

Any advice?
 
Nice handling car. But didnt win me as much as I was hoping for at 475pp

Ok no. I changed my mind. It handles badly! I used the tune Clueless provided, and it's like a fish on land! Given its weight, it jumps around much more than it should. Also given its weight and bhp, it leaves ground a lot more than it should. Its tail end jumped around so much! Every time I applied a little bit of acceleration around corners. Over all, it got me 7:42 on the 'ring.

Anybody care to help? :S

:( sad tuner :(

Did you use the tune as posted, or was power cut/different tires used? I can try and make some adjustments to it to suit you better, if you give me some idea in what you want from the car. (Tight/firm handling, lose rear, acceleration /top speed, ect.)
 
Well you did call me a poor tuner :grumpy:
*checks other threads*
....oh, never mind :dopey::lol:
I just tested your Rover.
I tuned it to 525pp (clearly higher than what hanibal is using) and used sports soft tyres (tune says sports medium). Drove through Hatzenback and Hocheichen without the slightest jump and then at the end of the Quiddelsbacher Höhe the Rover did only a little unmotivated hop, barely mentionable. Then it came to the Schwedenkreuz and took it in a unagitated calm scandinavian matter (haha Schweden and scandinavian, you get it? Probably not... :( ).
I came to the conclusion that if it doesn't jump at 525pp, it will never on earth do it at 475pp, NEVER. The front of the car felt a bit wobbly/spongy though, perhaps that's what he meant.


EDIT: I drove a little further and noticed how the front wheels jump a little in the Adenauer Forst, but that wasn't a big problem. Most cars have problems there, it's a very bumpy section. He could try front spring by 1 lower though, or maybe it's the rebound which causes the problems. Then he'd have to reduce front extension a little.

That seasonal is limited to SH or SM tyres if i remember correctly, whereas the tune you used from krenkme was on SS tyres. Probably explains why you felt it was sub-par, because the specs don't match.

Firm handling at max specs. So 650ish bhp and 580pp on racing hard.


A 2 tons Rover jumps around? :eek:

Yep

Nah. Was at max spec on racing hards.

I tried it on sports hards as well. Didn't mske enough of a difference
 
Let me guess, you didn't try to lower front spring rate by 1 as suggested, did you?



I can't give you a perfect tune, I only tested the car, I didn't adjust any settings.
