450PP Time Attack

[PlatinumRolex]

*Hello all, and thank you for taking the time to read this.*

After reading about 450PP racing, and trying it out. I decided to try my hand at tuning for the 450PP races. As I am learning the ins and outs of tuning in GT6 any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I'm using a Time Attack format to help me learn how to tune the suspension. Any tips on tuning would be appreciated. As of now the only track to be used in this 450PP Time Attack event will be Trial Mountain, any suggestions for other tracks are welcome. So far the only regulations I can come up with are 450PP max, and Sport Soft tires or less. Sounds fun? Feel free to make suggestions.

Me, also long time never race at Trial Mountains. Just to have some fun use a Ford Focus RS with 450PP, 230hp & 1052kg, sport hard tires (no wing) using my DS3 with no drivers aids doing 1:37.650.
A little bit slower than your RX7...

I got a 1:36.724 with your set up, but it seemed to leave a bit on the table. Either too much rotation or rear brake bias. Changed the bias to 5 front 4 rear, rear dampers to 11.88 and got a 1:35.316. There's still more in it. Set front camber at 1.5 and rear to 1.0, got 1:34.935. Not sure if I can do better with my DS3.
