via IM, Mr P. has made it clear he's gotten a little too big for his britches in my absence. therefor, with no further ado, we are going mano y mano. time to teach this young buck some manners.

he's going to find out the hard way that the old man still has a little lead in the pencil.

Ju wanna go to wah?! ok, ju gotta wah!!
 
I've never actually tuned this car, but when I drove it stock I hated it. I'll give it a shot this evening, if I can get my homework done early. Not being able to go online from home is a major obstacle to running these, but I'll try to get a time in (I have no way of seeing what other people are getting for times, so I have no clue if I need to get faster or if I can just take the run I have...)

Oh you wish, you big girl!
 
Hey. lol. listen you old timers. (P/Max)

Neither of you are walking away with this. If you even do take the race, it's gonna be a full sprint, cause my ass along with about __# of fellas backin me up, :lol: are gonna be runnin you down. :D

Yeah right!, no chance for me to take you two down, but I can tell you this much, it will be a real pleasure to run with both of you agian at the same time.

Everyone, Welcome back to the Weekly!
P & Max... all we need is rer, mih & odp and we'll have some real pro pressence... like it was back in the begining.
See ya on the track.
btw, max is right... 43 is in the cross hairs, and my un-refined tuning has already brought me a 44.5, so lets role!
 
i had a run with my mustang tonight and got
t1: 21.150
t2: 46.233
so looks like i seem to catch up alot by t2! judging by a few other peoples times
 
I'm at:
20.959
46.918
Enormous room for improvement. Hope to find time for a couple more sessions this week. :)
 
Some updates...

My settings are getting there, so I should have them finalized soon.

My times... (no keepers) 19.8 -> 43.6 -> :)

Horsepower... 716 is the max after breakin.

Alright guys, thats it, talk to you later on after some more racin.
 
my hp is somewhat lower... 68X but my car is brandnew and i didnt do a oilchange.
where does the t2 time pop up? I kept missing it this morning :/
anyhow my best t1 this morning was 20.834... needs work but I dont have time for it so this will have to do.

damn this car is hard to drive. tho I do have the asm at 0 (normal for me) and tsc at 1.
I found that I kept stuffing entry toboth the corner after the first tunnel and the very last corner...

I found that a +0.5 toe on the rear help stop the car from spinning out a bit too.
very interesting tho...
must pm my best time now...
 
Ok I had a few laps in this car :(

That is one piece of crap to set up I swear :eek: ..... needs a lot more tweaking, so far best clean save has 19.8 / 43.6

I'm losing loads though with the ass end of this car skidding for ages .... with less skid more speed this car would be in the 41's no doubt ! ... I'll try some more tomorrow 👍


Horrible car :banghead:
 
This car is hard to work with, but I don't find it horriable it all. It has a great power band and handles very well even with the huge amount of oversteer. It drives like a real race car should, with huge oversteer heh. TCS does'nt seem to do crap...again. Just like the rest of the time.
 
After playing around with the settings, i managed to get it down to a T1 of '20.056 and T2 at 45.5. A horrible t2 because of the road at the first tunnel, but the rest of that lap was clean.

*EDIT*
Got -.12 on T1, but dropped the T2 to a '44.54

Hi ving: Welcome to The Weekly.

The T2 is at the entrance to the 4th tunnel.

A break-in and an oil change will raise your horsepower.



19.708
43.517 submitted

I've got to go out of town for 2 weeks. So, I'm done.

Oh yeah, P's right, a boatload to come off, for sure.

FWIW, I stiffened the springs about ½way, reduced RH, stiffened the dampers, rear camber 2.0, LSD stock, tranny trick 3.500, TCS 1, that's about it.

I'll definitely miss Wk49, see you later. :)
 
This car is one inconsistantly handling piece of ****.
20.077/44.411.
 
can't play till i get a new GT3 disk. arcade mode simply won't work on either of my disks :'(
 
19.815/43.898.

Any of you top guys have suspensions you're willing to share?

I'm not completely sure of the legality of my times above.
 
some great T times there.I might have another go if i can... but i doubt I'll have time.
thanks for the welcome oliver :)
enjoy ya break
 
The car is a right dog to drive !!!

I kept on mising the t2 time becasue it pops up at the "wrong" time ie not on an easy stretch of straight road !

Im mid 21's and I managed a mid 46 last night but it is new and not worn in and I havent done the oil change yet either so hopefully ??
 
is there anyway anyone is willing to share some of the settings they are using to get these 43's

I dunno, It's just that you've got no camber and rear bar at 7. hell, maybe it's smooth.
