Not well my master. More practice needed for me with this one, I keep losing the lap either in the first chicane :embarrassed: or entering the left hand loop towards the end of the lap :banghead:. Patience with it I've been lacking :guilty: I prefer having traffic to play with :)

Brake early and power through you must young padawan

I found that braking earlier than I would normally was the key with this track and tune. The car always seems to be skidding in the braking zones.

How's it going at Apricot Hill?

Thanks for the tip :cheers:

That's because it was tuned by a :crazy:person ;) It's the track knowledge that'a failing me most, I'm doing ok till the little zig-zag chicane, I could still see your ghost at least :lol:, after that it's lose a load of time staying on track or :eek::scared::ouch: :lol:

The Apricot Hill one should be of little issue :) I've got plenty of cars that should grab an easy gold there. That'll be the icing on the cake when I get Ascari done 👍

How's your CSL getting on there?

Brake as you enter the zig-zag it helps you get round the left hander after. The final part is all about patience and getting the car to turn in once it has you can power through the corners.

Tuned to 575pp this RX-7 TC should be very competitive at most circuits but really comes alive at Laguna Seca. Not too far off the performance of the RE Amemiya RX-7 this will give most, if not all other cars of similar pp a run for their money.

Built for the 530pp Autumn Ring Seasonal event. This tune is really just a slightly lower powered version of the Tune I have previously done for this car, the only differences are a loss of 50 BHP and the Torque Distribution Changed from 25:75 to 30:70.

Again this probably won't be the fastest tune out there but it was an easy gold on lap one and a still in the top 1000 with 1:22.258 with no NOS. Good luck guys and girls, go for the GOLD!

Have fun and enjoy your drive!

Thanks bro. The setting it's overall nice. A bit understeer when braking while cornering. How to overcome that? Please help!

Best bet is to alter the Brake balance. If running on RS tyre, try either, 3/4, 3/5 or 4/6. If you're planning on using sports, tyres drop the racing brakes and use a similar rear bias. Hope this helps :cheers:

Thank bro. I did manage to time 55:56.597 sec in Tsukuba track using Sport soft tires. Thanks again for helping me out.
 
I had to do it didn't I!? :banghead: :lol:.

@RMan72 :bowdown:. That is a phenomenal time at Laguna Seca my friend 👍 Inside the top 200 :D:tup: and without resorting to a seriously neutered Hybrid :yuck: to do it.
I think I have an easy second to shave off but I'm getting nowhere near the 23s. Outstanding sir, I bow to you 👍:bowdown:. :cheers:

I always try and do times without using the obvious car.
I'm going to put your tune on the S2000 tomorrow, hopefully it'll get me a 22 👍:bowdown:

It'll do me 18s on the soft sticky stuff all day long, so you should be able to knock a bit off your time :). You'll probably need to make some tweaks to the transmission though it's a bit too :crazy: with the increased power/ harder tyre thing going on ;).
