Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupé '64 - Maxed 690PP - Racing Soft Tires - All Track - 1.40​

Rims diam up to you
Rim Width Wide
Offset Wide

Laping 4:00 on Le Mans FM 6 , can take any top 700PP road car anywhere. I've had to tight it over the 4 corners to not lose precision , LSD was enough for this and suspension was setted to add some more front grip . Works very well , a real pleasure to drive.

The stock car is almost perfect , it was easy to tailor it for 700PP . What a car , above my expectations PD and Toyota did a fantastic for this car. I think they want to encourage players to not use custom wing that just kill the look of the car.
A rear custom wing do the same job as original with 225 points downforce and is very ugly. The stock retractive wing shows 80 points only??!! Down or up ? Anyway , this way the car is amazing and works perfectly.
What a perfect drive. This my best 700PP for the moment talking about driving pleasure. And it' s THE LFA . I'm in love.

I'm going to buy a secong LFA to use stock . It seems that the only way to race Sophie having fair good battles matching performance. For a tuned car , Sophie stay behind by far.

Thank you very much for this tune. I would like to know that is the rim wide offset option being removed in today's v1.41 patch?
I can't find it on all rims that I owned...

Hi Praiano, massive fan of your tunes, wouldn't of enjoyed the game as much if it wasn't for your tunes , I'm a massive gr.3 fan, have you ever done a tune for the Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 '13? If you have could you post it please, thanks in advance

Hello. The main problem for this kind of cars is that you need if a PP limit , or BOP , or a maxed setting... track you'll drive it...
For example if you set a car for 730PP oriented to grip , you'll lose a lot of power using more downforce. It's a compromise , Daytona is a kind of car , Suzuka is other one....

Thanks for the response, I'd want it for a 800pp limit if possible?

The peaky engine is a really problem. You need to taylor your gearbox to fit the track you're racing , to not fall in the lowers RPM and almost stop totally.
The turbo is the option if your track allow to maintain your RPM , or use no Turbo to give some very few torque earlier in RPM.
It's a top 700PP at Nordschleife , that's because i did this adapted special gearbox.

>((((°>°°°°°°

Enjoy your drive.

Just for info: TURBO or NOT TURBO , that's the question.

 

[Far80Out]

I’m in the same boat as you, haven’t won this one yet and it’s apparantely the number one money grinder. We will get there. I have a good feeling about this new tune for the ‘64 Carrera. Gonna buy it and try it out tonight when I get home. Looks like it will be a great car on fuel/tires

I’ve been able to consistently win Tokyo by using a group B car with SH tires. Try using the WRX or the Mitsubishi, set FM to 2, no pit. Time should be under 27 min to win. A few tips: 1) try to carry your gears through the 4 mid lap turns (I.e. if you can stay in 4th). 2) the first few laps, make sure you are utilizing the cars in front of you for draft up the hill. Don’t try to block. 3). Don’t worry about being in first place till after lap 5. The two lead cars will pit on lap 5/6. 4). First lap should come in under 2:30, 2nd - 4th ~2:14 and then after that, the track dries up and you will need to run 2:13-2:14 to win. Good luck!!

please add huracan with the chiron engine swap aswell. i think that car's PP is bugged. i maxed it with ultra high turbo etc and it is still around 600pp with 1.8k Hp and 1.2 tons of weight

1.41 turn tuned cars able to race Sophy. This is a great . I did some test on road car , also a Gr4 , the fight is really good.
They still repeat the same move , car after car , lap after lap , race after race..... It's not an intuitive AI at all. It's like a script , not very inteligent in my opinion. But still very fun . Good point , on the good way.

I agree! Definitely more fun than the standard AI. Not perfect yet, but more like real racing. Going in the right direction.

Have you raced the 600pp event at Grand Valley Hwy 1? The AI there are also more fun and competitive, almost “Sophy-like”, but without the emojis. Different than the usual AI.

Hi @praiano63

Porsche GT3 RS (992) '22 - 800PP - Racing Medium Tires - All Track - 1.40

Rims size 20" - Rim Width Wide - Offset Wide

#911 GT3 RS '22 // 776hp 10900rpm - 402ft.lb at 9100rpm // 2692lbs // Downforce fr350 rear650 // RM tires for 800PP
#911 GT3 RS '16 // 686hp 9300rpm - 409ft.lb at 8100rpm // 2504lbs // Downforce fr186 rear480 // RS tires for 800PP

Differents numbers and tires , the '22 have a fixed downforce , both have the same performance , the '22 is less performant with minimum weight (ballast added) don't need some weight reduction , just low down to this weight .

Together with the top 800PP cars at SPA or similar track , more grip less speed than Vulcan , McLaren F1 GTr BMW '95 for example.

This car is very bad at 700PP due to low speed.

Hi @praiano63 is this Porsche still not performing at 700PP? Just curious since it’s part of the weekly challenge.

Hi @praiano63

It's still +- performant on grip circuit. You can't modulate the downforce on this car so it's limit the PP = HP for 700PP.
You need to set down limiter and ECU and it's not very good for top speed.

I've let the Rear extension and front compression very low for the car fall on his front grip , allowing weight transfer playing free . The car without this freedom stay a few lazzy. Just don't pass over the limit or the sanction will come. It's still very easy to lead this way.
Top car on Nordschleife or SPA....

Thanks. I set the PR and ECU to get to 700PP. You were correct, top speed in the straights were lacking, but I was able to make up time in the corners to win the race.

 

[Spacegoat]

The 550PP setting can handle very well more power with racing tires and more springs to help weight transfer.

The Chiron engine for Lambo Huracan '15 is a lost of time and $. Without rear diffuser available , the car stay horrible. The only option stay top speed , same top speed as Nismo '17 , around +500kmh who like this kind of use.
I had a new car to build my 700PP again.

This looks fun! I tried to tune it according to your specs, and it's coming up at 793pp for me. I've looked a few times and can't see what I'm missing.

I mean I can just get it to 800 with Power Restrictor change no problem, but I'm wondering why the difference.

Fascinating work. But would you mind testing my 997 setting (based on your all-round) for Nordschleife? I removed the diffuser, used stock wheels and brakes to gain PP, and it seems to work well, since getting better tires and more power. My poor driving skills made a 6:32 lap, and I believe that your exquisite skills could make full use of its potential. It will be great if you could give me some advice on suspension&lsd tunings.

@Malmedy
Your screenshots in your language are not going to help things. Here it is in English. It would be better if you deleted your screenshots, here is the dedicated message from praiano63. If everyone does the same thing, it's going to be a big mess.

Check your rear custom part is on.

 

[luv2drive]

Check your rear custom part is on.

Thanks. I did verify Rear is "Type A", but this reminded me of another strange thing. @praiano63 's spec says Side: "Type B". I only have the option of "Standard" and "Type A" for Side, so I chose "Type A".

Anyway, I was able to blow away Sophy easily with this on Spa, reaching 340km/hr on the long straight.

I had an interesting experience with the 1,000,000cr endurance event at Spa. The front tires on this tune wear out like crazy, so even when I switched the tune to RM tires, I could only get a max 5 or 6 laps on one set of tires, and then with Wets or IMs when the track dries out, you get 1.5 laps if you're lucky after that. It made for an interesting pit strategy. I still managed to win going away, but I didn't retake 1st until lap 22.
