Just saying (and to make sure I REMEMBER, old man you see
) going to try (buy it first -LOL-) your enzo..., "i'll be back"
Greetings stano(doing le Sarte in Slumb's enzo)666
Edit: i'm not sure i understand tranny settings ?, & i'll try RM tyres first we'll see what happens 'ey.
ps thanks in advance.., hope i didn't forget anything
Well back i am, just editing my op, instead of creating a new one
[no smily list though.., but who cares!]
As promised i bought the Enzo -after i wrote down your settings, hehe-
I did change the oil and broke it in at Indy Time Trail no.15. This went better than i first feared, i did drove slowly with times above the minute.
After 3 laps i speeded up, resulting in 0:59.035 for lap 4 & 0:58.106 in lap 5, time to push it i thought..... Bad idea for it resulted in scratching the paint and DQ.., grrr.
Back to GT auto i did change: oil & rims -Raysvolk Trinity V- plus i painted them, in the same colour of the car (white something). Fitted Aero B (car colour) wing on the back, overhaul or restoration wasn't needed.., pffeeeuuuuwwwwwy.
From there i went to the tunning shop where i bought & fitted everything as you said, except the tyres i used RaceMedium for now. Aplied your settings, wich gave: 894 HP, 646 PP and 1044 KG. of weight.
On leSarte i put ABS on 1, the rest OFF; CSS:1, full track + speedometer + revcounter on the hud, i use cockpit cam -ofcourse- , race line and DS3 as steering wheel -i haven't got room for a propper steering wheel.., sadly-
Now we all know that.., lets see what happened on the track -Ferrari seasonal event on leSarte- : the Enzo felt much better, no more dancing on ice, the steering seemed to be a little more 'heavy' but certainly a big improvement on all accounts, despite gaining 250 HP, the Enzo gave more confidence.
Laptimes did improve, But i wasn't there yet, i kept bumping others, wich is better than crashing, but still, i went to change somethings oncemore.
I put the BB at 6/8, RaceSoft tyres on, plus -since i was cheating* anyway- i set the TC on 1, ABS on 2, used the bumper cam with full hud and installed Aero A wing (black), plus i painted the rims black too for looks.
Here i felt even more at ease with things. The previous settings made silver/gold with the occasional cut off the corner and bump on opponent but the last changes realy helped me (the paint obviously didn't
)
I'm a amateurish driver and i wanted to be first without "cutting" and with more style. So a third change was needed.
This time i went back to GT auto for oil & body restoration ($500.000!) This wasn't a big surprise since (although it went better) i still hit a opponent and a wall (hard).
But i wanted to be "fast" & clean. So i went for a downgrade: original exhaust, ECU, catalyst and air filter where installed. I'd leave the rest as before.
This went well, i'd still managed to scratch the opponent cars, but they did totally provoked me (some don't go aside even when i honk and flash my lights -LOL-) and NO CUTTING at all..., Yea, i finally liked it, i didn't mind before -don't get me wrong- but doing 3:50.148 totally clean makes me happier than 3 min. dead with cutting of corners.
Then i noticed my bank had 19 mil. plus so i did one final lap with every setting and upgrade as you suggested and did a very clean 3:56.666! -LOL-
So my "verdict": firstly leSarte isn't the right place for this setting/car/amaturistic me combination.
2nd: i needed to change BB to 5/6 (just my taste i guess), downgrade the power a bit (or set the TC higher).
And last not least: i'm not good in tuning (yet) so if it could have been better?, i know the original setting was worst, even with TC & ABS on 10 and ASM on.... So yea, ofcourse upgrade the engine, weight and fit high power parts to a Enzo and top speed goes up. But if you want to use this power on the roads (without intervention of TC and such) use the dr.'s setting (as seen in this thread) It helps and is most certainly a good starting point for me, perhaps i'll do a little more tweaking & tinkering with dr.Slumbs setting. Yet i'm more than glad with the results as seen above (in this post).
And i'll have some credits to spend, so firstly i buy a Scud and tinker with that i think.
* sure this ain't real cheating, just not my normal m.o. to use RS tyres.
Till next time dudes
Thanks
!
Thank you! I always set FF cars a bit in an extreme way, but if you can handle it, it's like you said a blast. I personally have no problem with super high brake values, think it depends on the driving style. Your lap time is amazing! You've really driven it with Sport Soft tires and without aids (except ABS 1)
?
Did they work?
), your doing a great job buddy!
