TVR TUSCAN SPEED SIX RM '00

HP: 573 HP
Weight: 885 kg

Background and Aim: I am a HUGE TVR fan and hence have felt disgruntled at how bad the TVR Tuscan Speed Six RM model was, in its stock setup. Those of you who have driven this car will know its normal setup promotes far too much understeer and doesnt really allow the superb Speed Six engine to propel this baby around the track at its optimum. What I have done here is unlock this cars full potential as much as possible, this is my first tune so please provide whatever feedback you can.

First of all the ride height was dropped to lower the centre of gravity and the springs were increased in rate to help make the handling sharper (as a TVR should be) and the dampers adjusted accordingly. Some Toe and Camber was needed to help it really bite out of the corners and turn in more effectively. The LSD provides a good balance of traction on the fast bends and negating the horrible understeer it had at the start. It accelarates very quickly and stops well too since its so light... so the brake balance was changed to allow the body to help slither round the tight corners.

I must say its a pleasure to drive this baby now, it is VERY quick and the car feels planted. It punches well above its weight, beating other Le Mans edition and more powerful machines. Its capable of 6.33 on the Nurburgring and 1.17 on Trial Mountain, which are my two main tuning tracks. Enjoy!

I`ll give this setup a go, ive not play GT5 for 9 months but im back now and have a fresh view of the game again, i`ll give you some feed back. BTw please help me to get a petition done and sent to the GT creator I WANT THE CERBERA SPEED SIX LM EDITION BACK!!!!!!! sure he could do that in one of the upcoming DLC`s That car was a dream to drive in the original game just imagine how good it could be now?!!
 
It is very well planted indeed, you don't have to worry about losing the car coming out of corners. But it feels like it needs more cornering speed. All in all, a solid tune, and you can really push the car. 8.5/10
 
Just tried this tune; big, big improvement over the poor standard set-up. Thanks!

BTW; Aero F35, R43 = 615PP
