If I have time later this week, I could see what I can come up with. If you don't mind the wait :nervous:
 
So, I had a very short run with the car, and I have a few questions for you.

Do you want it "maxed out"? Only reason I ask is my run was fitted with bolt on parts (no engine work or weight reduction ) and it felt good.

How well do you know the track? I am a very bad driver, so I had many offs, but a good driver (one that knows the course ) will like the tune... I hope.

If your friends list is not full could you shoot me a FR it would be easier to know what the car needs when I put it up on share.

I won't tell you the time I got (embarrassed ), but it was very fun to drive 👍

Have a great day :dopey:
 
There is only one tune posted in Adrenaline's site link in the stickies at the top, "Every Tune That Exists on This Site." It is from 2011, so it was done a few physics updates ago, but might be worth a try?

The on throttle wheel spin mentioned under the tune is probably coming from the LSD settings and outside front wheel spin. I would adjust to 7/12/5 and see if that helps. The rest of the tune may be o.k.?

Alright. We recently had a shootout at the 'Ring and most testers were 10 to 15 seconds better then my times (if not more).

So with this car, sitting at 408pp, with no engine work, or weight loss, I ran a 8:48.xxx... lost track after my fourth off.

With weight loss it should improve, so thats my next step. Adding power will actually hurt this car a little I think (somebody shoot me :p )

Hope to have something solid for you in the next 5/6 days :dopey:

at online with comfrort soft and all the "hepls" off??

the setup now is
123kg at +13
-12/-26
8.6/9.2
4/6
2/3
4/2
2.1/2.6
+0.15/+0.20
8/23/14
with no aero..

the car is is very oversteer(it's Sliding the rear of the car) in the turn with 60% throttle..
and the carrousel with 60km is scary because always i lost the rear of the car like FR cars..
i want to reduce a bit the oversteer ..
i'm waiting my friend thank you very much for your time..:cheers:

couple of seconds I could improve, but george if you did a 8:28... online I'd say you probably already had pretty much the best setup for that car. I don't see myself doing it, or your just far better a driver. cheers

would you explain to me why you put compression higher than extention? just curious:)

I assume your talking about rear compression. I have it higher because I don't want the weight to shift to quick to the rear to avoid lift off understeer. Leaving the weight longer in the drive/steer wheels helps the stearing

yes the rear ones, ok I get where you are coming from, I'll give it a try. Never thought this could work in any way, but it's GT, not real life LOL.

Lately I've been in alot of FF shootouts, and the FF seasonal, and this is something that I've been messing around with. Seems to work :dopey:
 
So I took my tigra with the setup I posted above and changed rear dampers to ext.5 comp.8. I could feel the car beeing a little more stable hence weight transfer left to right was less notable, but wheel spin increased when exiting corners coming with that a faster wear out of front tires and an increased power understeer (understeer when exiting corner). After I tryied my setup once more.

Then copied your setup (@krenkme) and did a lap. Yours is very balanced aswell, although it also understeers a bit to much, for my taste. So I set Anti-Roll Bars to 3 ,rear, and break balance to 3/7.

I like mine better but I would say both are good setups, they make this thing very drivable.

Thanks for trying the car. Tire wear, and understeer have always been a problem for me in overpowerd(torque ) FF cars on comfort tires, but I'll continue to try and figure it out. Thanks again, and if I can improve it I'll post what I came up with 👍

You can go and try mine if you want. I'm always happy on some feedback aswell, positive or negative.

I set LSD very high and then work my way thru everything else to get rid of the heavy understeering a 60% LSD causes. I know it takes away loads of power but at least the tires dont spin to much

Spending time with my kids for fathers day, but in a few hours I will certainly try your setup 👍

Double post...please don't hurt me :dopey:

@Falco,
really enjoyed your car, understeer is okay, and the handling in general felt good. It felt a little stiff, or flat, through the corners, but some more time with your settings might feel different.

I will be using your settings for sheet two for this car. I like it, and once I feel good running the 'Ring (still haven't got it after... how long has it been in the GT games?...:dunce: ) I'm sure this will feel great 👍

Thank you, in the meantime I had to find out that this setup works in offline mode ONLY

it is unfortunately totally useless in online lobbys

but its still good for ff seasonals for example
