I refrain from using words like faster/stable etc. because this is subjective. I can get the control I need by using these lower settings - I now know how to fine tune out the under/oversteer in the LSD, I previously thought it could only be tuned out of the suspension.

This is the key for me. When I first searched tunes online I couldn't drive any of them, they were terrible, for me. Obviously someone else found them quite good because they got the type of control they needed. Driving skills and methods are not universal, and so tuners tune for their skills, drivers search for tunes that work with their skill and style, and when the two coincide, voila, everyone is happy.

When I entered my first tuning contest I added this to my tune:

Driving it with my own driving style I know I can be competitive with this car and tune, but it remains to be seen if it can be adaptable to various driving styles.

I found this out as well, being a test driver in some tuning contests. The differences between cars is often dramatic and it really opens your eyes as to what level of variety is out there and how personal tuning preferences really are.

So on one end we're criticizing someone for not giving credit to a guy because he "only has 8 tunes", and on the other we're saying "if you don't have tunes and success, you have nothing to back up your talk".

You need to turn up the sarcasm detector CSL...lol...:sly:
 
Yes, I was being sarcastic myself. I in no way consider myself an elite tuner. I have tuned cars for the Seasonals and TT's and some people have used them with success and even get requests sometimes. Does that make me an elite tuner in the likes of Praiano, Hami, CSLACR, Adrenaline, ect. No, not by a long shot. No where near as good as those guys. Hence the reason I don't go around critisizing those guys. I know enough to make a car handle decent and help other people who don't tune at all. So, again, I was just being sarcastic with my post #84.

How come my name isn't on that list?:banghead::confused::mad::boggled: 🤬 :)

Imagine how I feel when my tunes were nightmare to some, as I tuned them without ABS and they were rather loose in handling or needs extra care just to not crash and burn :lol: I feel bad, but I am learning to make an easy to drive tune ...:nervous:

You are on the list. You're "etc" :lol: :p Sorry, didn't mean to leave your name out. I have the utmost respect for you too Johnny. Maybe I never told you this, but you are my GTP man-crush. :lol:
 
Uhh…on the latter bit, if you were referring to our screwing around posts on the top of the page, I think that was mostly sarcasm. At least, I know I was being sarcastic about that.

First - nice replying to a comment that was made two weeks ago.

Second - you are either on about me or Adrenaline. Both of us have won FITT tuner challenges and both of us have been active in the GTPlanet tuning forums since the beginning. If you want to talk with this much bravado, come back when you have more credibility. I think Adrenaline and I have what four FITT Tuner Challenge wins between us?

I was talking about adrenaline

Still doesn't make your comment legit in any way.

Saying that the amount of tunes someone has published shows how experienced they are doesn't sound right either. By your logic, if one were to spam-tune 20 cars a day, within 2 weeks they'd be the most experienced tuner on the forums.

Experienced?he only tuned 8 cars and you think he's experienced.thats like saying a newbie in this website knows everything about this site.doesnt sound right.

This gonna make the throttle too touchy.unless you make the rear firm or you gonna make the car still undriveable.



Higher number means more oversteer and lower number means more understeer.but the rest of the information is fine

Are you kidding me? You're going to sit there and critisize the forums foremost LSD tuner. You make me laugh, lol. I've tried your tunes, you yourself don't have a complete understanding of the LSD and you're going to critique an experienced tuner. Funny stuff.

Looking for the ignore button until you can provide some evidence of this. Show us your work. What testing have you done?

@CSLACR: I know your post was probably mostly aimed at me. I'm not sure what your problem is with me as I have done nothing to you in the past, but you seem to like taking your digs at me. I see you are a fellow WRS member and D1 driver. I have nothing but respect for you guys and enjoy learning from you all. So please, lose your attitude with me as I have no problem with you.
Somewhere in all of that. None of it seems like sarcasm.

Cargo - I don't know what the hell you're talking about. This is the second time in recent memory you've jumped up swinging at me about what I don't have a clue.
I don't know what beef you think I have, nor do I care, nor do I actually have it.
