I did this one over the weekend, and thought some people might like the info. Seems to get asked for alot. Beginner and Pro level.
Vitz series Beginner
I jumped in the Vitz and went shopping. Knowing that Ill use this car extensively for 2 series races I just blew Wads of cash and went for an outright win. Started at 109 HP. (637,945cr.) Oil Change, Racing muffler, port polish, balancing, chip and Stage 2 turbo brings me up to 294 HP. Super Slicks and slicks were purchased as well. Lightened it as much as possible, brakes, Balance all that good stuff. (498,945cr) Hey, its only cash?!?

Super Slicks on the front, Slicks on the rear.
Qualified with a 138.668. 1.472 Seconds on first place.
Which I shouldnt have, as I got nailed in the first corner by all 5 of the AI, leaving me in last place.
I never Pitted, 2 AI pitted on lap 5 and 3 AI pitted on lap 6 (by this time I had a 12 second advantage).
I finished with Yellow Tires on the front and Green on the rear.
Best Lap: 137.730

I took the lead on Lap 3 and never let it go. Started from Last place.
AI Pitted on lap 6, I never pitted, and ended with Yellow Front and Green Rear tires.

I was about 10 seconds shy of lapping the AI again.
I ended with 3 green/blue tires, and one blue tire.
If I had spent 10 minutes messing with the settings I may have gained a few seconds. As it was, I took the corners at 158-159, and topped out at 161-162 on the straight.
If I could make the pole position in qualifying at the next race, I could walk away with the series win, based on points. Decided instead to race the SS11.
Special Stage Route 11 2
Reloaded settings from before the Test course, and went for it.
Took a beating, so I had to adjust the settings. Heres what they now look like:
Springs: 6.0 (F); 4.0 (R)
Camber: 2.0 (F); 2.0 (R)
Toe Angle: 2.0 (F); -2.0 (R)
Everything else stayed the same.
I didnt grab the lead until lap 5. AI pitted on lap 6 except one car who pitted on lap 5, and 9.
Results:
Vitz RS 1.5 (J): +33.387
Vitz RS 1.5 (J): +38.064
Vitz RS 1.5 (J): +39.995
Vitz RS 1.5 (J): +47.722
Vitz RS 1.5 (J): +57.594 (pitted twice)
Best Lap: 212.747
Total Time: 2235.425
Average Lap: 2'15.543
This has been the toughest race so far. Knowing the results, now, I think I could have won without playing with the settings.
Series Points standings now:
Me: 40 points
2nd place: 19
3rd place: 12
4th place: 12
5th place: 11
Last place: 10
Exit out of this race, and win the Altezza LM race car.
At this point I went back and won the last race in the series. By exiting out of the previous race, I screw my 100% win ratio. Maybe my next time around, Ill shoot for that.

AI pitted on laps 4 and 8.
This race irritated me. I got bumped by the AI, and slid sideways. I got back under control and gained back on the AI that nudged me. I slammed him and his rear wheels broke traction. Never lost his line. I think PD has a few things to look at for GT4.
