GTR R35 TC please can someone post the setup for Spa Wet as I am stuggling
Thank You
Hard? First run i went 16 seconds quicker than gold. They are still far to easy IMO.

s2k2k3You went 15.2 seconds quicker than gold, according to the leader board.
That's a pretty big rounding error.
If you're going to blow your own horn, at least play the right note.![]()
Couldn't remember it exactly and wasn't near my PS3. PD need to do something, gold should be a challenge.

Just had another run. Loaded up Tony's ghost. It helped me as I was no longer going off Eau Rouge due to Tony's lap having quite a poor first sector. Anyway had a shocking 2nd sector and an OK 3rd. The deficit is all in the 2nd sector for me, I know I can do decent ones, just doing it with a good 1st and 3rd sector will be the key. Eau Rouge can kill many laps though. If anyone wants to see how to do a fast first sector especially the initial part, look at my replay. I don't go through Eau Rouge that quickly so there is some time in there.
I am having problems since day 1 on the first sector so i don't even bother restarting despite having lost time. My PB sector 1 is still 2 tenths away from the top time and i've tried many things. The other sectors i feel reasonably fast, with the last sector being always a little messy.
This is my first seasonal TT and to be honest i am not enjoying it much. Setup and ''tricks'' are too important so i keep bumping into walls then followed by breakthroughs and shaving time off accordingly. I don't enjoy the actual driving experience.
I'm with you on the first section..It's where I lose the most amount of time (More specifically the first turn, I'm fine at the high speed bend). Also lose some time in the mid section and incidentally gain in the last two..Odd eh? What I recommend you do is load up a fast person's ghost (Faster than you anyway) and drive alongside them, It helps, or rather it helped me in certain sections
Here's my tune combined with Praiano's, It might help some of you guys...
Ride: -7/-10
Spring: 18.4/20
Damp Ext: 9/10
Damp Com: 8/9
Roll: 1/2
Camber: 2.4/1.4
Toe: -0.03/0.14
LSD:8/20/5
Use a Mid-RPM Turbo.
I keep flustering especially when I'm doing good. If i didn't have that problem I would have done a high 19 a long time ago :/
gratz on your Spot, Wish I could break into the top 10.
Thanks. The setup seems very extreme, mine is very conservative compared with it. I'll give it a try. In what way is the mid RPM turbo helping?
I dunno, It just seemed like stiff springs helped at Spa, at least for me. Camber helps with a bit of stability...Believe or not the Mid RPM Turbo actually makes the HP Peak slightly higher than the High RPM so you can shift a bit later. Bit more power on the straightaways.
@Kwicko, Just keep at it..Go slow into the corners, and fast out of them. Watch a couple of fast people replays, load their ghosts and yeah, learn and apply![]()
Done it in the TC GT-R first time, But I am still struggling with the dry one.![]()
-raVer-What happens if PD sets the Gold time to 2:20?
Is that better for you or do you start complaining the Gold time is too low ?

Thanks. I think the fastest way to go is getting close to perfect traction and little to no wheelspin until top range of power.Awesome lap Saidur! Did a 2.23.4 with the Oreca R8 but there's still so much time to find everywhere.. I love how you can take all kinds of funky lines on this TT which actually make you faster![]()
If you see my lap, you can see my first sector is maybe 1 or 2 tenths faster than the number 1 time, which makes me about 6 tenths faster than your time in 1st sector. I will tell you the trick, at the start of the lap on the chicane, keep to the right, then cut back inside while partially on throttle then go full throttle. Keep to the left, brake at the 150 metre board if I remember correctly. Slow down about 40-50, then try and cut into the corner with the help of the e-brake without losing much speed, then get on the power while keeping to the right. A good example will be my replay as I said.I am having problems since day 1 on the first sector so i don't even bother restarting despite having lost time.

I finally managed to get to the top. Thanks to ugabugaz for the setup, and saidur for the sector 1 help. There's still time to be found but at least i know now where and why.

The GT-R R35 TC is great for the wet test.
Try the dry one with the GT-R V-spec
You'll should be able to make it. 👍
