500PP Non-Racing Car Super Lap: Grand Valley East

[bone_tone]

...Love this track, hate this car !

Wish they'd do a borrowed car time trial again.

All drivers, equal Kachin

You haven't done too badly considering your hate - you're way ahead of me as usual.....

 

[DeltaJuliet]

Yeah hate is a strong word, I mean really dislike , I find the GSX so unforgiving, so many crashes from even just slightly over correcting, regardless of setup

Well it's not always usual , you had me at Bathurst!

Anyhow I think the trick here is turning while still coming off the brakes, but not to the extent of the rear sliding. So set your car up with that in mind if that's any help

 

[Retiree]

With this @praiano63 tune with my little modifications I just realize 1'05'947

Ok Jeje this time it's me snapping at your heels. Chased you last night for 15 minutes, spent most of the time sideways or spinning out. Great time mon ami and looks like I've got a fair bit of shoulder pain coming up!!

 

[CBH]

Hey @Jeje6410 the best I can get out of you tune is a new time of 1:07.611 on my other PS3 account, your tune is very good and thank you so much my friend .

It's the exit from the corner into the tunnel where you shoot past me - up until there I'm in front of you. I just need to get that bit right.....

 

[Draggon]

I got a 1:09 something in the GT-R concept, then decided to go with the flow and run the GSX-R. I was unable to drive even a Praiano tune ( way too loose ) so I used the ballast and LSD recommendations posted here, set brakes to 6/2 and used the racing hard suspension with a trans flip. It rewarded me with 1:06.882 and position #822. That's all I've got, yet I'm quite pleased I made the top 1000 almost a week into the event.

 

[MidnightRun85]

Gold is possible with the Alfa Romeo 156, for anyone who's interested...

Thanks a lot my dear friend it's always a real pleasure to read yours comments and your enjoy

Sneaking up behind you Jeje, 1.06.216. Having nearly the same drama as BoneTone, in front to the end of the tunnel but because I've lost it there a million times I'm a bit dodgy there and you flash past. I'm using o0Maxx0o's tune (because I love em) but with the t/c at 3. It was either that, sell all my Suzukis or go back to AC which I just spent about ten days on and I'm not in any great hurry to do that.

Good good good my dear friend! !!!!!!!!

 

[Wolf68]

Trying to catch @fordlaser (who is also using an RX500) but this is the best I've been able to get so far...

 

[Yeahnego]

So ... the 3º position - keisuke_p_5810 - used a Suzuki Kei-Works 02. I watched the replay and ... wtf??? 4th gear all track long, +300km/h .............

How?

OBS.: i did the time in a lambo chrome line

1:04 could be possible by pad/at....maybe....

ciao

 

[Jeje6410]

I have tried @o0Maxx0o 'S tune as my dear friend @Retiree with TC at 3. I can do 1'05'923 . I had a lead of -0'00'115 but I lost my cool in the last portion

Last time the fastest pad user with automatic transmission did a 1:04,638. So i'm sure you can get that 1:04. 👍

 

[Jeje6410]

1'05'649 with @o0Maxx0o 's beautiful tune. Thanks a lot o0Maxx0o

Geez mate, how am I supposed to catch that? It's killing me trying to catch your earlier time!!

 

[o0Maxx0o]

I'm using @o0Maxx0o setup, and @TRL_Andromeda gearsbox.... Oh wait, still no Andromeda gearsbox yet

 

[Jeje6410]

I don't know

Hey @Jeje6410 new time in your Lotus tune a 1:07.335, all I did is to put the downforce to 5 and with no other changes this time, thank you my friend .

Spring rate: 4.34/4.34
Dampers compression: 1/1
Dampers extension: 1/1
Anti-roll bars: 7/7
Camber angle: 0.0/0.0
Toe angle: 0.10/0.20
Brake balance: 7/2

Transmisson:
Reset to default, set max speed to 180km/h
1'st: 4.847
2'nd: 3.770
3'rd: 3.050
4'th: 2.520
5'th: 2.120
6'th: 1.790
Final gear: 3.200

Differential:
Initial torque: 6
Acceleration sensitivity: 14
Braking sensitivity: 44

Power:
Oil change, Engine stage 3, Sports computer, Racing Exhaust, Exhaust Manifold, Catalytic converter, Intake tuning. (Everything)
Limiter: 97.3

Body:
Improve body rigidity
No Weight reduction
Ballast 170 kg at +8% position
Downforce: /20 (install a wing)

This setup have more potential than my own tune.

Shame on me.

 

[Retiree]

Maybe It's because @TRL_Andromeda seems to have moved to a warmer climate.

His setup is hot, so making sense.

Edit: I feel like the wing slowing me down more than helping.... Need to take a try no wing.

I have made modifications, the wing I take it to 15 and the ballast I take it to 6 and the change the 6 march at top of short and final march also
