Sorry to bother you. I thought I was asking Fruitycakes. Desperately looking on page 5 for your explanation but, gulp, can't find it. Oh, and I did everything in the original setup by Fruitycakes...exactly...on a brand new Gallardo. The only thing that isn't clear is the rear wing. No worries, I'll go back and try the big wing this time. I'll PM Fruitycakes if I have a problem so as to not upset the apple cart.

Lol, you're not upsetting anything. Its just that this question seems to keep popping up and it has been answered numerous times in this thread, not only by me but by a few others too. I was just trying to point you in the right direction in case fruity wasn't around.
The Gallardo I used for all events is on share. (PSN: Rhinoafrica) Use fruitycakes's (I changed a few things, thanks fc. 
) setting in the tuning sheets. I think I saved it as 'fc.' The tranny is set for the 'ring, so play with the top speed using final gear only.

I used my Gallardo I've bought a long time ago for the A-Spec races. It already had all the weight reduction, engine stage 3 tuning and all aero parts.
In addition I installed:
- sports soft tyres
- full trans
- twin plate clutch
- semi racing flywheel
- carbon prop
- torque diff
- full customised LSD
- full customised suspension
My SET UP:
Ballast 200kg (total 1369kg)

With this set up I had no trouble to win Rome, SSR5, Autumn Ring and Toskana.
Nurburgring took me about 25 tries. You need enough patience.
The car is on share - untouched after the win at Nurburgring :-)
Thanks to all the good advice at this board!

You gotta do this to achieve those gear ratios... apparently someone mentioned it earlier in the thread, but I found it out myself by trial&error:
TRANS RESET DEFAULT
MAX SPEED: Set to minimum 124mph, then move slider right 2 clicks, speed will be 130-something
FINAL 3.140
1 3.975
2 2.530
3 1.992
4 1.633
5 1.373
6 1.165
TOP MAX SHOULD BE 190MPH
I also dropped the Sports Air Filter in favour of the ECU Chip, as this gave more torque at the expense of 1bhp.
Won it by 1.8s after a few attempts

If your 'Ring knowledge is lacking (as mine definitely is!), be sure to turn on the driving line, and it might help to brake just a little bit early - 10-15 feet on some of the faster corners, less on slower ones. You'll lose a little bit of time doing this, but less than if you brake too late and go off into the armco...

I had a go at the Ring last night - won in time of 7.02.
2 Miura's upfront. Got the first guy on the second corner before the straight.
I'm sure the stewards would have a few words with some of my driving lines, but very satisfying event.
Used Gallardo - sports soft tyres, fixed sports suspension, stock transmission and all drivetrain upgrades - all aids off except ABS=1
Really great car, and can slide around corners whilst keeping great speed.

Can some one give me a proper tune setting please?
I cant adjust my gear ratios as some examples here...
I only become 3rd with terrible settings...
I have the following cars:
Gallardo LP-560-4
Murcielago LP-670-4
Countach LP400
Countach 25th an.
Thnx for the help!

Assuming you mean this: The gear ratios on your car may not match another person's car if that person has alterations like custom wheels or an oil change and your car doesn't. Your car has to have all the parts and all the changes that the tuned car has. If the tuner put rear aero and computer chip on/in their car, you have to too.
I've really only used the Gallardo on the Nurburgring event. I've actually used two. One was fully upgraded and then de-tuned, and the other was stock with upgrades not affecting PP. For both of these cars, I uses Praiano's Gallardo tune.
His tunes have helped me a great deal, and the first page of that thread has all-manner of cars, and links to their tunes, listed alphabetically.
Hope this helps

Are you setting the trans up exactly as he has done. There are alot of variables to take in consideration when trying to match someone else's gear ratios. If you can at least get them close, you should be good. This is why I prefer to share my cars as opposed to giving out my setups, just easier and less confusion that way.

i use the tranny trick, which is; using a fully customizable tranny & starting with the default setting, 1) set the Max Speed all the way to the Left, then 2) set all the gears all the way to the Right, then Lastly) set the Final Gear all the way to the Left. it always works great for me! i get max power in all gears and max top speed for the car.

Thats not exactly the tranny trick but I see what you're doing anyway. Tranny trick is this.
1. Reset
2. FG full right
3. TS full left
4. Set final gear again at redline or approx. 15 mph higher for draft.
5. Adjust gear ratios
6. Done
There is also whats called flipping the trans which is a procedure the drag racing community often uses. There are variations of both which can also prove useful in some cars.

When I've driven with the driving line on the 'Ring previously, it's been overly conservative*. That's fine for getting you around the track, but I think it would leave you several seconds short of a winning time in this event. It might be useful for getting a baseline for your braking points and turn-ins so you can start figuring out where you need to be more aggressive, and by how much. For that purpose, though, you'd probably want to just practice-lap the track or run one of the endurance races so you can run a bunch of laps back-to-back, instead of having to restart the race after every lap. Practice-lapping would give you the advantage of feedback at the splits to see when you're finding faster lines, though with the negative that red-timed runs wouldn't stick (whereas the endurance races will keep every lap but won't give you feedback on your split times, you would have to remember the quick splits on your own, and tire wear would limit you to only one or two flying laps in a stint).
(*Caveat: I haven't driven with the driving line on with the Gallardo, so it's possible it's more accurate.)

I'm having the same issue as above and many others, have followed all instructions to the letter (including oil and wheel changes), and even resorted to buying another car and starting from scratch - result 2 cars with identical gear ratios, none of which match those posted! Whatever parts or changes I make have no impact on the selectable gear ratio ranges..........

It's not critical to get the ratios exactly the same as long as they're relatively close (and, in particular, the ratio of one gear to the next is about the same). If you're well off on first, that doesn't matter at all---I don't think you spend any time in first.

After about a 9 month layoff from the game, I got started again a couple of days ago, and was very pleased with what seemed to be some improvements in the game. In particular, I'm enjoying the Japanese 80's and Lamborghini seasonals. I just finished with the Nurburgring event in my Gallardo with a time of 7:03.xxx.

Yes, it's quite conservative in many areas - some of the fast section before the long straight, for instance, it shows a couple rather long braking zones where you really don't have to touch your brakes. Heck, you don't even have to lift off the throttle for at least one of them!
Having the driving line on, SRF, and TCS=1 got me around in 7:02 for the win.

I've won all the Lambo races now, and have the Diablo. I thought I'd publish my setup because it's substantially different from most of the others, which probably shows how much its all about the driver and not the car.

So has anyone won the ring in the Miura? I like to use the same car throughout if possible. My progress so far is
Rome - No problem
Autumn Ring - Fairly easy
Toscana - Very easy, a real money-spinner at 460PP
SSR5 - A bit of a struggle but got there in the end.
Nurburgring - Nowhere near.
I'm using Praiano's 500PP suspension settings, took Teflonicus's advice and added weight at the front but I don't think I've managed a clean lap yet. I gather that IRL the Miura has notoriously bad handling at high speed due to all the weight being at the back and it having the aerodynamics of an aircraft wing.
I can get up to about 8th place but then invariably go off trying to get enough pace to catch the next car. I'm nearly ready to give up and switch to the Gallardo. The AI seem to manage in their Miuras so maybe it's just me.

FRUITYCAKESHERE IS ALL YOU NEED FOR ALL TRACKS!👍
BUY A GALLARDO LP 560-4 '08 AND PUT THIS SET UP ON IT!

HOPE THIS HELPS ALL!!!
You, my friend, are gold !
Couldn't get anything better than 10th on Autumn Ring in my 560. Slapped your tune on it: already ran first at the end of lap 4 !
Thanks mate.

I got as good as 4th in the Miura (yes, by getting the weight closer to 50/50 or 49/51), but that's the best I could cut with it.

"Manage" is relative... you're trying to make up ~30 s on them. You'd be "managing" the same as them if you were to lap somewhere in the 7:20 to 7:30 range.

4th is good. I bet there are drivers out there that could win it. Probably not me though.
That's very true. I assumed that because they were at the front they were the quickest.
