Little Duckpond Under the Mountain.
No longer in operation.
This garage was aimed at accomplishing a few things.
1. It was two guys having a bit of fun
.
2. To provide tunes for Racing soft tyres, because no-one else was doing them and there was a lot of people out there, mainly kids and older players. Who don't take this too seriously, but still want, and deserve to, go as fast as they can
.
3. To hopefully start a few others doing so too
.
4. To reacquaint myself with the GT tuning process after a lay off since GT4. And to learn as much as I could from people who looked at it from different points of view 💡.
5. Th-th-th-th-that's all folks.....
Missions accomplished!
In my time here, I participated in a few test programmes/events. here is the MOST important one. If you have any questions about specific feedback I got during the tests or my interpretations of camber and how to get the most use out of it. Please feel free to PM me. I'm always happy to answer questions and try to give examples of cars I believe highlight how effective it can be for different situations
.....or point you in the direction of someone who can describe it better 
. An open mind is essential for these communications, I may tell you things you don't want to hear
Testing Projects
@DolHaus' The Great Camber Experiment: Stage 1 "High Speed Ring"
and
The Great Camber Experiment: Stage 2 "Silverstone"
Updated tunes.

(Sorry, couldn't help myself
)DISCLAIMER: All tunes found in this Garage(at time of writing) have been created using a DS3 with stick used for steering set at 0 sensitivity, ABS set @ 1 and SRF on (Yes, I hear all the moans already...and I don't care!) and all other aids off. Just remember that not all drivers were created equal, we all have our own styles and skill levels and what works for you may not work for others.
These tunes will not suit everyone and to some may seem completely undriveable but they have all been extensively tested and for the people for whom they have been created they work better than the stock settings.
Most of the tunes unless otherwise stated were created at Grand Valley Speedway and have the Transmission settings for this track shown. Top speeds have been tested at Route X.

I would like to take this opportunity to give a special thanks to a few people from our community who have helped me a lot, either directly or otherwise, in gaining the understanding that I have acquired so far.
Firstly, for the sheer volume of work he has done not only here in GT6 but also in GT5, I would like to thank @Motor City Hami for his extensive work on all things tuning related, a huge amount of time and effort has been put in to help all of us and we salute you!
Here is the link to [/URL]Motor City Hami's Tuning Guide.
Secondly and I'm sure this will come as no surprise, I would like to thank the Tuning Legend that is @praiano63 for the huge amount of great tunes that he has created over the past few years and for also sharing his wisdom, especially with his Transmission set-up guide.
Here is a link [/URL]Praiano's Transmission Guide.
Also @XS for his help with teaching this old dog new tricks. And of course taking the time to compile all of the tunes available here in GT6 and making an easy to use Tune Directory to benefit everyone as well as giving us little guys a place to be noticed in a
full of tuning giants.👍[/URL]XS' GT6 Tune Directory
A very special thanks also goes to @DolHaus for providing a great resource for the beginner tuners like myself with his[/URL]
General Tuning Guide And for his insightfulness and dedication in helping fellow tuners of any level to learn and improve.💡
And last but not least, My tuning partner and good friend @Dirty_Duck who is also Co-Founder of our little garage and who does have a motorsports background, who frequently spends a lot of time with myself bouncing ideas around to try and get the best out of every tune we do here under the mountain.
Here are the links to a couple of tunes which I have posted previously outwith this garage.

This is the post, post edit, EDIT.
Now last....and this time I really mean it....but definitely not least.
A really, really special thanks to @TurnLeft. An oddball Canadian that I had the absolute pleasure to run into on here. And someone who has helped me with far more than he or I could ever have dreamed of. Tuning related and especially not. I owe you all I have dear friend. You can collect anytime
No this doesn't mean I'm leaving
. Just that there will be no more tunes posted in this garage. Peace...
👍
