I found a lot of time by making sure to keep the right side tires at the last inside curb heading onto the front straight.


But ive only done 4 laps so far. Spent too much time on the 700 pp lap. Can't even get silver on it, lol.

Yes, I notice it also. After the Le Mans tt this is a hard track to drive. 2 days ago I whas in a flow and drive top times. I switched to Le Mans and now my feeling is gone....Now i must drive 20 rounds to get a 1.19 time.

Is it a smart-phone? You could connect your PS3 to that with the wifi hotspot for now. 👍

I used my smart-phones wifi hotspot from when I first got my PS3 [Dec 2012] up until six months ago when I finally got connected to a fibre-optic line into my new flat.

Once again I turn to the Subaru S206 NBR Challenge Package with @fordlaser777 tune , I managed a 1:24.249 with only ABS 1 and driving line.

 

[spikyone]

Golded with my trusty GT86, running at 492PP. Only just snuck under (1.26.8xx) but I'm pleased to have got through without resorting to the GSX, especially as I'm not a fan of Willow Springs. A couple of red laps whilst getting used to the 🤬 tyres and the line/braking points through that looping final turn, then a couple of "nearly" laps before hooking up a good one. I'm sure there's more time in the car, and a whole bunch more by using a better car, but I find race events far more interesting so tend to leave the TTs alone once I've struck gold.

I have used the Scooby on this one for the time being, too...
Did a 1:23.235


Probably will try the X-Bow next before I decide if I will even bother to use the Suzuki.

Got me a 1:21.533 in the X-Bow. Sure drives and sounds better. Little over a second slower than my best GSX-R time so far.

Top speed is what hurts the X-Bow, down 8-10 mph in turn 9, little better traction and front end grip.

Can't wait to give this a go. Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks for share Ed!👍 Give this a try tomorrow.

Have a link for the tune? I've only ran 4 clean laps with the same car but was a hair short of gold at 1:27.177. This is one of my favorite cars for time trials.

 

[Otaliema]

Can get some fun with the Gixxer trying to dial a tune in.

Nice 👍, I'll try to break into the 1:23's before I try another car. The Subaru handles really well.

Very nice tune, apart from the usual problem I have with alien tunes with a very loose rear end! The only way I could control it was by moving the weight forward to -10, and promptly knocked 0.3 seconds from my best time - felt like there was more to come too.

 

[Strachi]

@ed Night,what a fine setup.I can imagine with sensetive fingers its very fast,especially the last corner is very beautiful to drive.I managed a
1:19.545 after 4 rounds.
@Kossie,i saw you this morning on the track.Of cause you tried it too.
i know the trouble you have with the back end of the car.Their is a nice
solution to it.I love your tune.
By the way Immortal dont drive with full downforce.

Congratulations on your fast time , and your prior set-ups.

I think Immortal would be using full downforce with gxr because he is not/does not use active steering. His lap as per usual is beautifully smooth.

 

[Strachi]

Right,but he would loose about 7kmh on the end of the straight towards the
first left corner.

 

[Strachi]

P21 1:19.268 with a diffrent set:-)

 

[shoenboggie]

Can't wait to give this a go. Thanks for sharing!!!

So I gave Ed's tune a go for 10 laps or so last night. Improved some from a 1:20.498 to a 1:20.298. The diff setting's and brake setting's are catching me out at times and I see the potential for a 1:19 lap.

This car/set-up is one you can really control the direction of it/where the nose of the car is pointing with the throttle.

Need to clean up my corner entry for the middle section and try to get the power down sooner. Last turn/turn 9, what an easy corner to over drive.

Great tune Ed_Night!

 

[svenhjs666]

Improved myself over a second today
Used @Kossie tune from the Tsukuba TT .
Maybe if i use some tunes from this thread i can improve myself again.

 

[Kossie]

Improved some from a 1:20.498 to a 1:29.298.

Is this a ''how slow can I go'' TT

Cheesrs!!

thanks - I think this tune are very good

 

[Kossie]

There is much different between a controller or wheel tune. I think the top players using downforce 10/11, I think that.
They are so stable they not need that. I try it and with some training Im sure i get faster with less downforce, I also try with only ABS on 1 but thats still to slippery for me.

thanks - I think this tune are very good

It's a stable controller tune. Good luck!

No

 

[Otaliema]

@Ed_Night very nice tune.
Not my style for TT's but it's still a good tune. Did s 1:23 w/o trying.
Kept the damper pattern (not values) for my car cause of the balance it gave the car.
