Hi, you wouldn’t have any tips to help me with my Ferrari 458 gt3, I have tuned it but the back end wants to spin on every corner?

I only have one 458 GT3 and it seems to have a default tune on it. If you are still interested in me customizing one for you, let me know.

Otherwise, in general, if you want to tame rear-end oversteer under throttle, then soften and lower the rear-end of a car.

Monza with chicane, Tires = 12X, Fuel = 3X (8)
Fuji with chicane, Tires = 10X, Fuel 4X (8)
Autopolis GP, Tires = 10X, Fuel = 4X (8)

This car has been my biggest tuning challenge yet. Controlling tire wear is crucial for maintaining control, in the long run. Coast through curves, if you have to, and be careful of the torque. Pressing on the brakes cuts power from the engine, as with the F1 car. The car does not have a full set of adjustments, including camber and ride height. The car bottoms out frequently, shown by all of those sparks. I posted an 8-lap Custom race against the AI in my GT feed, to show driving style. If it is any consolation to you, the AI can't drive this car, either. :dunce:

So, every week, between 200 and 250 of you are intrigued enough to read about our weekly events. I would be really happy if 200-250 were trying to race with us. You even get free beer! Come on, let's go racing!
 
Now this is a car that kills you on sight. Still was able to grab some wins in GT league with it. Good luck mastering it.

Hey MasterGT,

Will next Mondays race details be posted up this coming Sunday the 23rd?
 
For now, the details are in PSN Messages. I try to post them there first, usually on Friday nights. I will post them with the usual added information here, soon, once I make the images.

Thanks for your interest. I think you will really like the challenges each week, T3Moto.

This Monday will be an unusual special event for MNR's 5th Monday of the month. Basically, it will be whatever YOU want, within reason and with rules.

For the hundreds of you who have been missing out on MNR events because you don't like what we do, then this is your chance to show us what you do like. It's up to you, so make it fun for everyone.

So the rules are simple, to keep your race plans in the style and spirit of MNR events - challenging but fun for all. We can skip the tire wear and fuel, for this experiment. Avoid silly stuff, such as N200 on RSS tires. Gr.4 will be set to the proven SM tires, and Gr.3 to RH.

Pick either a category or one car + tire, track, BoP or tuned (100%, 100%), laps within reason, etc. We may have to adlib a few settings. First come, first served, so come early.

Hope to see you on a holiday Monday, too!
