i could say 'well i can get 5 seconds in my civic' but im not like some people here on gtplanet *cough*masterblaster*cough*
i dont use hybrids to whoop/ every1 online theyre just for my satisfaction only
so the fastest i can get in the 0-400m is about 8.9 with my ruf rgt

My car is not hybrid.
 
i know and i respect that the fact that you can say that i can do the 400m in a fraction over 8 seconds is worthy of my respect!
but if some hybrid crazy mad modifier came and posted a time of 2.455 in a mini id be dissapionted that some people arent good enough so they have to cheat
i was never meant to offend u and it sort of didnt come out how i was portraying it. but that is a nice time, hence respect dude!!👍

No problem man. I just wanted people to know that this car was not a hybrid. If anyone wants my setting I will post them up. I am sure this car can go faster with traction.
 
i ran a 9 flat with my ruf rgt. and before i restarted my record i ran a 8.6 with the 875000 dollar indy car. if anyone wants my specs for the rgt just ask:D
 
I managed a 8.498 in my escudo but i think theres more in it i just need to play around with the gearing more. Are you guys doing it with manual or auto? i use manual myself.

manula of course and i think everyone else uses manual for the quarter mile even if they dont for normal racing (like me cos i always fcuk up on the downshifting)
and welcome to gtplanet
enjoy your stay! ;)
 
i ysed my polypohny001 with no alterations to it and got 8.602 seconds.

all u have to do is keep the revs up at 4000 then when the countdown timer gets to 0 hold down on x
 
8.602 isnt that good with a poly 001 (no offense) but ive managed an 8.2xx a while ago
if i were u id be trying evrythang in the setting department to try to cut some 100ths offa that time
what i did is change 1 thing like lets say spring rate
if the car goes faster then keep the spring rate where it is then move on to the next parameter
but when u test whether it goes faster with an alteration make sure u test it at least 5-10 times just to make sure it wasnt just human error and a ****e launch!
so get cracking and welcome to gtplanet
enjoy your stay here as well!;)

oh and another thing i always hit the accelerater just as the timer hits 1 then u should get a slightly faster launch!
 
I can run a 1/4 mile time of 14.2s... That is in my SEAT Ibiza Cupra Turbo.. !! :D heheheheh

I can't remember my exact times for the 400m in GT3.. although I am sure I was fastest with the F1 Polyphony 001 car, and I am sure it was quite a bitless than 9s.. Will check tomorrow when I get chance and post up what I have got.
 
My Zonda C12s gets 9.001 @ 171-173mph..It runs the 1000m in 15 seconds! the setup is located at http://www.gtvault.com
look under my setups therat1989 Top 10 list whatever I have 57 so take a look. My F094/s gets 8.7 I think dang I'm so close to beating 9 seconds..I'll beat it in 'bout 5 min brb
 
8.994....8.997...8.995..8.993....8.896 8.896 is my new best record for the Zonda..I raised the front height and lowered rear also I used a superSlick tire in front and supersoft in rear I'll play around for another hour with this then hit the sack zzz so tired its almost 12:P
 
I see a lot of people here talking about starting in 2nd gear.

I wonder why you do it.

If you are going to be running a dedicated 1/4 mile, you would expect to have 4-5 shifts depending on how long it takes your car to shift.

You would want your car to have a fairly tall 1st gear, this way you still have traction and yet accelerate. Then attempt to get gears 2-6 so that you run through each and are just at then end of the powerband in 6th gear as you pass the 400m mark. Seems like you are handicapping yourself if you start in 2nd or 3rd. Why not just set 1st to that ratio and start in 1?

Springs fairly strong for 4wd cars, little lighter in the back, more so in RWD cars

Vcd somewhere between 40 and 30 (front) seems like best, 50/50 may work best, but i doubt it with the weight transfer.

Car should be as low as possible (i dont know why raising any part of the car should help you).

Bound and rebound set to reasonable levels. probably pretty high. Bound lower than rebound.

You want supersoft tires and down force all the way off.

Limited slip will mean nothing to you here, its a perfect track so if you can set it to 0 go ahead and do so (ie force 50/50 distribution rear).

If you can get a launch without traction control then do so, otherwise you want it as low as possible while still preventing wheelspin.

Seems what should work to me.
 
Hey guyz! I'm Gakis. I'm from Greece and actually i'm dragster & street racing addict. That's another story...

So 0-400 is my favorite race in gt3! I've bought my playstation 2 about 4 months ago.

My best time with my favorite 0-400 car is 00:08:914sec with Lotus Esprit sport 350 1060 hp! I don't know your time with this car. Is it good?

I'm very glad to meet you here all gt3 funs!

ok lemme just tell u sumthing i have perfected my setting for some cars and can get faster 1/4's than i ever could

springs:
i set mine to 4.0 at the front and 20.0 at the back then i test the car it goes faster

when i use 4wd cars they always seem to launch faster with 50% vcd

all of my settings i have are with ride height set at highest as somehow it does actually get u faster 1/4 mile times:odd:

i am pretty wierd with bound and rebound as i put it at 7 front and 10 back for both

and their the things that i do differently
 
i dont remember anyone ever testing the Zonda for 1/4 mile so i had a go last nite!

i pulled a time of 8.916 and i have pics to prove it!
full mods and 1097hp (up to 1103 now)

sr: 4.0 / 20.0
rh: 80 / 80
db: 7 /10
dr: 7 / 10
ca: 2.0 / 1.0
ta: 0.0 / 0.0
st: 3 / 3
bb: 9 / 9
lsdi: 0 / 10
lsda: 0 / 40
lsdd: 0 / 20
df: 0.29 / 0.35
asm: 0
tcs: 3
auto gear: level 47

1st: 3.228
2nd: 1.977
3rd: 1.364
4th: 0.994
5th: 0.764
6th: 0.621
final: 3.429

notes:
start in 2nd gear hit the gas as it says '3' and shift at 6800-7000rpm and you should be able to achieve 8.916 or better
