[Litchi]

30.9 with something completely wacky?
cue CSL in 5, 4, 3, 2...

This is not wacky, this is GT5, this is a game. Not the reality...

I went ahead and posted the template in the tuning section so that those who want their tunes featured can fill out the sheet themselves then post it here. Seems like people are okay doing that since a couple already have.

I also posted the correct font to use as well. 👍

Oups sorry man, I used Arial, my bad

EDIT: here is the Calibri font: 👍

It is wacky=GT5. PC sims arent like this Litchi

Hi there. 1 hour of tests and finally got a 2:30.9

Here is my tune:

Yeah I know this tune looks like a joke when you see the values. But it works very well (for me ).

For my transmission, you can find the right values only if you follow the procedure below:

1- reset to default
2- final gear 5.500
3- max speed 180kmh (maximum on the left)
4- final gear 3.490
5- set your gears one by one.

WOW.........

That is similar (in crazy) to the tune I used in a MINI copper?

Thanks for posting.

Tried out outlaw's tune and it seemed to understeer quite a bit, despite it having good cornering speed. Tim's tune which he posted in the other thread was very stable and I could imagine it being good in the wet. I was only slightly slower with his tune than I was with Wardez's which is a bit looser. So anyway I ended up nearly got into the low 30s but with a bit more toe on the rear. I'll try out Litchi's tomorrow. And I can't wait to start racing these cars again!!

Aderrrm nice one .

 

[Akmuq]

Room up, might not be for long though.

1472-6118-3830-2744-5378

Edit: Room down, need to break in the car.

 

[paulmac2k9]

Might pop in Akmuq .

Oh well 10mins is hardly long .

 

[Schadenfreude13]

I have a real car.

Sadly, this is the 2nd sportiest car I've driven.

(The most was a base Mustang convertible I had as a rental)

Ouch. I'm sorry.

List of cars I own/have owned:

Honda CR-X, Mazda RX-7 (FD3S), Nissan 240SX SE, Ford Explorer.

Sportiest car I've ever driven - Some RUF variant of the Porsche 911 that my German uncle's friend owned. I honestly can't remember which it was because he seems to wreck one every other year or so...

Anyone going to be on tonight after 9pm EST? I have a bunch of custom courses gathered from my track contest that I need some help choosing from for this series. All we need to do it turn a few laps on each one then we can pick which ones we think suit these cars well enough to be included this season.

Yes, and will be there.

Yeah, I'm going to work on a better setup. Looking at the times here, I'm a turtle.

Ouch. I'm sorry.

Eh. My car's not fast but it's pretty fun to whip around the bends.

Will we be doing this all in one night? Not that I don't have the time but I'd like to give each course an equal opportunity.

 

[CodeRedR51]

One or two nights. There's about 15 tracks.

 

[Cowboys965]

Even in Watson's tune, I barely broke 1:34...

Best lap though

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

One or two nights. There's about 15 tracks.

15?

My thinking process is give each track at least 30 minutes. Most of it to practice and the rest to have a race or two.

[Dr_Watson]

Amazing how many cars you can go through if you have a good Garage.
Heh, I'm 32 and I've owned 5 cars (one of which only lasted 6 months and 2 that I currently have)
'80 Buick Park Ave -> '91 Cavalier 2L -> '94 Cavalier RS 3.1L -> '00 Focus Zx3 -> '11 MX5

 

[CodeRedR51]

In case anyone is wondering, I do plan on having a prize pack for the series champion. Just trying to figure out what exactly. Will make an official announcement about this before the halfway point of the season.

I may be on around that time. Gonna spend some time tonight finishing run-in of my car, and hopefully getting some practice laps in.

I'm sure whatever you select, Aderrrm will appreciate it.

 

[CodeRedR51]

By the way, you might want to fix your signature. (Madza)

I was actually trying to find a Bus Legacy 2.5GT spec.B before I got my Speed6, I just could find one for sale that was remotely close.

So true about Aderrrm.

Amazing how many cars you can go through if you have a good Garage.
Heh, I'm 32 and I've owned 5 cars (one of which only lasted 6 months and 2 that I currently have)
'80 Buick Park Ave -> '91 Cavalier 2L -> '94 Cavalier RS 3.1L -> '00 Focus Zx3 -> '11 MX5

Very true. The sheer number of tools and machines my father has just baffles me at times.

I get bored if I have the same car for too long so I am constantly wanting something different. So if anyone is interested in a 2006 MazdaSpeed 6 GT silver/black with ~43k miles I know where you might be able to get one.


P.S. First result on google images when searching "1980 Buick Park Avenue:"

Its a bit late but this happened on Saturday night, Me and Green were battling away for 4th in a practice 6 lap race when we come across Jaghee whos run wide at Pouhon and is at this point a lap down. He then pulls back on straight infront of Green and then blocks him and me into the next 2 corners when he should jumped out of the way. I thought id bring this up its potientialy dangerous given we are running heavy damage and hopefully should serve as a "What not to do when being lapped".

Heres pictures of it

Me and Green on entry with the lapped Jaghee out wide.

Further in..

Now going around 30 mph slower he cuts infront of Green causing him to have to slow down and then running into him, not cool.

At this point we exit the corner and youd expect Jaghee to pull to the right and slow down to let us pass but no he blocks Green and forces us to back off.

So coming out of the corner we again attempt to pass him but he trys to move over on Green side swiping him in the process.

Only Jaghee outbraking himself trying to block us lets us past...

Needless to say Pirtek Racing and Nikon Int. Motorsports were not impressed and confronted the driver who denied any such actions going on to say he was rammed (After rejoining infront of Green) and that the Pirtek driver was flashing his lights and honking the horn at him which he found irrating.

Ill see if I can upload the short video to give a better idea but I hope this is something that does not happen again.

Good one

That said, you are absolutely right Paul, a lapped driver should make space immediately, and even if he was not lapped he must not get back on track like that.

LMAO. Is that a dogwood tree in the background? Must be somewhere in the Dirty South

 

[harrison1476]

I have been very busy with WSGTC, tomorrow night I am doing testing for the pre season race at spa, and RT, are you doing custom track selection tomorrow night too? I am up for it after 9 PM EST, that's 6 PM where I am (PST) so works out great

 

[gravydavy35]

Remember the best and fastest make it into the races.

 

[Cowboys965]

We don't have that many people though right?
