Not happy with this week races , don't like dirt and all these Gr1 and single sitters races are abusing my eyes .
Anyway the set is done ,took only 2 CRB and the repeat of GV not only i lost CRB but end up and second 😂 .
Way overpowered the Godzillas and very tight to fit joy in this but if you're looking for trouble you're in the right one 😂
Was that close to change level at GR1 race but choose the super formula ( full aero ) and FM6 most of the time to win it .
I also run a second time with LM55 and FM6 .
Nothing else to declare , i get the " shaft " and a McLaren vgt that sold little above 500k.
That Friday won't last long anyway .

I'm a bit speechless right now ( reason might be the tough Special Event :lol: ) so I'll keep things short.

My only gripe with the LM55 is that in VR you don't see anything on the sides with the wheel arches, and mirrors are quite out of sight too.
 
For the GT R, you could focus on camber settings, decrease it in the rear, and the power delivery a bit more to the rear with the 4wd controller.
Here's what I've been using:

Thought that because I winged it with my BMW M3 GT4 build after applying a modified version of the M3 GT's setup and it actually working, I could just do the same here with taking the GT-R GT500's Default setup.

Another day, another car, and this time a clean win after a couple of quickly aborted attempts. Noticable differences in AI difficulty in this one too. The first three laps were mostly spent holding back to avoid hitting anything and only the last lap was in any way representative of the car's potential, and even then I was (again) playing it safe for the bonus. It's easily a 1'48 car with any risks taken.
