PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

[praiano63]

Can't find it, what name?

Edit: like your mustang boss another impressive tokyo tune, easy win with 1 stop (lap 10) on IMs 27:13 RT. Can probably do no stop on FM2, tires were ok.

Hey Bro thanks for all your efforts.

What do you think of the Alfa Romeo 4C Engine Swap to the 458 engine?

Is it worth it or should I keep engine until further available swap options?

And can i swap it with something else than the 4C?

I don't have 458 engine anyway... must be a nice engine noise.

A PP bug on this car let it than more 500HP , of course extremely fast anywhere , under the 1mn on Tsukuba , 7:05 on Nordschleife , perfect for Tokyo also , just take care for the huge power peak at high RPM for 1st and 2d gear.
I had also a 45/55 wheight repartition tune but it was a bit too more extreme . This one is drivable and fast , with still a good eagerness and a good front grip.

For the gears , you have to perform a trick.
Final gear max value full right
Top speed auto mini full left.
Then final gear again to minimum full left 100 kmh
Then set all individual gears starting from last 5th gear then 4th , 3th , 2d ,1st gear.

For Tokyo 600 wet I think Intermediates for 5 laps and RH for 7 laps is the best strategy. Best lap was 2.01 and got a finishing time of 25.34. Only a whisker away from lapping all cars. This is the fastest way to accumulate credits I'm aware of. Thanks!

Ok will try. i searched for "praiano" but couldn't find. Maybe need to search for the whole phrase.

Btw. i hope you don't mind asking, but is there a rule of thumb about when to use what to reduce PP? Like, when is using ballast better than ECU, when is Power restriction better than ECU or when is it best to use ECU and Power restrictor? I noticed some cars perform better with only ECU lowered, others with a mix of ECU and Power. Is this highly individual?

This car is so broken. While driving it on Tokyo - 100 pp under the limit and 200 kg extra - it crushes so much it feels like an arcade racer. To me, it's almost no different than the old Tomahawk glitch.

No doubt PD will play wack a mole again with a tuning change.

I wouldn't go as far as saying no different to the Tomahawk glitch!!! That said I was kicked when using it from a 600pp lobby for "using a cheat car" .... I don't think they liked me beating them by over 30 seconds around the ring.

I don't care if my race is 25 or 26 or 27 minutes , also i don't care to fight against AI that is so bad and weird. AI drive exactly like a train.
My fun doing this race are the bends with a good sharp easy car , trying to find the perfect line during 12 laps. If i win by 30seconds or 1 minute... No difference.
I have good moments with my last Lancia Stratos lately.

Lancia Stratos '73 - 600PP - Sport Soft tires - Tokyo/All Tracks- 1.25
The road car that i love the most , since i was kid seeing Rally world champion "Bernard Darniche" winning everything with the Stratos.
It look like an animal , a shark , a blade ....
This 1.25 update bring a new tune with a wide body , larger tires and offset wide. The car is not extremely fast for Tokyo but the front grip is +++ and very easy to drive. SHARP is the word extremely SHARP.
On Suzuka it's 2:10 , 2 seconds faster of my 2d faster car. A real pleasure.
Again my best car , the one i enjoy the most any track.

Thanks for another masterpiece Praiano. The Stratos is amazing in Tokyo. Just as you describe: very sharp, very easy to drive and so much fun!

New 800PP tune , 6:05 on the Nordschleife , same time as McLaren F1 GTR Race car '97 but different behaviors. Few less grip as McLaren due to less downforce , but fantastic top speed , reaching 360kmh end of straight.
The 700PP is not so fast but if you want to try , don't add all the engine tuning options. The way it is , you can't detune the car till 700PP.

I just won this car. It’s still decent at Le Mans rain 700pp. You just can’t have any weight reduction or internal engine upgrades. I did it with your tune, 40 kg front ballast and 70% power on the power restrictor. I lowered the gearing ratios like 10% also.

It’s still fun because it handles like a dream and does 185 on the long straights.

I’m glad I read your disclaimer though or I would have been SOL.

For this 1.25 update , i'll bring 2 settings for this car.

- 1 for Le Mans or any high speed track. There is a BUG on this car that allow to increase the power (I'ts a lot of power) , but this turn the car undrivable or boring on slow or medium turny tracks. For Le Mans , you need very early short shift at FM6 for 3 laps.

- 1 that i called DRIVABLE VERSION , a top 700PP car , very fun to drive , excelente performance anywhere , Nordschleife , Suzuka , any technical circuit. For this car , i've let the same the same gearbox , but you can build a shorter one. The huge torque allow you to use a 4 gears box , up to you.

Tune 1 Full power bug

Tune 2 , drivable turny technical track , the one i prefer of course , it's a top 700PP car . Very good drivability.

ive noticed that without the ballast the car hangs inside the 700pp range (le mans tuning), do you think that the ballast is necessary?

100% necessary. If you take out the ballast you 'll have a weight repartition of 54/46 in the way 56/44. The balance will be totally different. You can try to adapt it , setting more + rear spring and perhaps higher front ride height.
I don't think it'll be a better option. I've already test others ballast options , from position 0 to rear.... The way i did for last will the best compromise. Front grip , eagerness and rear stabilly.

Same for me, very nice car, very nice handling, very nice race. Could win by 10s lead. For tokyo maybe can set final gear a bit higher for better top speed on the straight.

Do you think the F40 92 can be done in 600pp too?

Maestro,
I tuned this car as per your instructions and went racing. I used the high power settings but feeling nervous about using that much power. What a relief, what a surprise!! The car felt like it was on rails, it was very stable and easy to point and shoot. I did a lot of shooting tonight and I used the Silvia everywhere I was able to. I raced it so much that it started to lose HP due to the oil needed changing. The only caution with this tune is that it takes a long distance to stop, especially from speeds over 200 mph, but generally speaking I found that I need an extra 75 meters tacked on before the 200 meter signs.

I easily won 3 races at Le Mans then went hunting! Suzuka, St Croix, HSR, and on and on. It was good in the rain too. I want to thank you for all this work that you do, to allow an old geezer like myself to get out there and have fun spanking these AI. Your generosity is marvelloso.
Cheers, Pete

You're welcome. Yes the last 1.23 update suit perfectly to the Stratos. I love to drive it . Silvia is so fast , like a train , need anticipate on the braking distance.
Happy you're enjoying your drive.

Hi @praiano63 . Greetings once again from South Africa.
Thank you and well done for the Stratos tune. It performs amazing. I Only made minor adjustments to suit a different tyre choice.
I Have a special Italian livery on my car with a number plate dedicated to you 🍕 🍕
