500PP Racing Car Super Lap: Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca

[oooMaXimumooo]

Even in 3rd gear my car goes wild. The only driveable setup without spinning is all grip possible to the rear (+1.00 toe, full rear df, min rear springs, max rear height, 60 5 5) and no front rotation. Put 25 df to the front and the car became a mess.
I dont understand this car at all.

I have zero toe!
Soft springs
Low diff.
Low back wing

Hi,

I tried this:

• completed all settings except transmission
• set powerlimiter 92,8% = 500pp
• reset transmission-settings
• set max speed to 200 km/h
• set final gear to 5000

and got what you see in the pic.

But: playin' around with the settings, from one moment to the other, it works. Absolut same settings

So I tried this seasonal once again. 1:35, 1:34, 1:36. No big improvement in more than ten tries - until I recognized my sport-hard tires

Next try gold. Very nice tune, easy to win with it. Thanks to @Jeje6410

When you reset set the Transmission do the final gear first, then the max speed and then the gears and then change the final gear to 4.047 for smoother gears.

With a perfect lap i can do it
...........................Bring it!..

Wow...6th 1:21.006

Amazing. But I Chase you

Sorry for dubbel post. My mistake....

Go HOLLAND

 

[Polsixe]

Mobil 1 NSX for me, gear down the transmission for 130 mph top end, get that first Andretti curve right, can almost do some curves flat out, slight lifts on entry, and there you go.

Half way I was 3/10 from Hans but I got nervous and blew it
Maybe you need to learn to use manual, short shifting will give you a lot of tents

 

[coryclifford]

Gif you a lot of tents!

Thanks a lot @DeuxMilles for your comments, your enjoy and your test with this tune. Thanks again my friend

1:22.916 with the S2000, I might be able to get a little more but that lap was still better than I expected nonetheless.

You're fine where you are.

Did I read that the TS030 has too much power even after its detuned to 50% and wore out? Must be a misprint.

Got gold time with the Cobra coupe. Time to try the Ferrari, Elise race car and beat my back up handle with the Opera car now.

________

Ok, not much time for the Ferrari and Elise, they're slow. Couldn't get within a couple seconds. So pulled out the trusty Opera S2000 and laid down some laps, with a best of 1.23.21x. I ran about 8 of the 1.21 2's and 3's, but couldn't go faster....yet.

P62 at the time.

Highest actual 500 pp car, an S2000 was 13th. Boooooo PD.

 

[Kossie]

Is this true? AT gears are so much slower as manual?

 

[Retiree]

Try jeje410 Opera tune with no F/R camber.

Thanks mate, I did that been singing Opera for an hour and I'm down to 1.24.941. Time to have a beer and settle the nerves and hopefully go faster. Cheers!!

Thanks a lot my friend @Retiree to have used my tune. It's a real pleasure. Thanks again

1:23.960 for pos #193 in the Opera S2000 '04.

Whoops, I tell a lie, 1:23.719 for pos #144.

 

[oooMaXimumooo]

4th!!! 1:20.840
Crazy

3rd!!!! 1:20.668

 

[BenMillard]

Exactly 0.5 seconds under gold using Honda Integra Touring Car.

It was a bit below 500pp as I don't like to put a turbo on FF NA.

What other FF is it talking about? Side quest to set the best FF time in the world rankings?

 

[Kossie]

1:21.799 My car is still grinding on Indy. Top 10 here I come. I need more KM on my car to make it lighter.

oooMaXimumoo Amazing 👍👍

 

[coryclifford]

I'm still holding down P10

1:22.509 S2k `04 no abs, i'll improve later

edit: 1:22.490

 

[bone_tone]

Have you used @Jeje6410 Opera Performance S2000 '04 tune because its an easy Gold .

I've tried @Jeje6410 tune, and found it to be very good. Initially slightly better than the tune I had been using, although I was suffering from lots of wheel spin on acceleration - added the gear and diff settings from my old tune, and immediately went 0.7 seconds quicker!

Nice one Jeje!

 

[wedjim]

I got my 1.23.2 time with:

85/80
11.0/12.95
2/3
2/2
5/6
0/0
-.08/.16

Diff
5/9/12

Flipped maxed out trans(1&2 as tall as possible, 3&4 set for best cornering balance and 5&6 almost maxed out as short as possible) with a final drive of 3.95
Basically similar to all the popular set ups.

Down force 140

If anyone wants to try it I can get more details and post them, lmk.

Is this true? AT gears are so much slower as manual?

Kossie, with a manual trans, you can up shift early to control wheel spin, downshift early to add rear braking and help pivot the car in tight turns and even use transmission to help cornering at medium speeds rather than using the brakes.

It won't make you a second faster, but it is faster. Even today's automatic high performance cars come with paddle shifters for this reason.
Letting the computer shift at exactly the same rpm when it wants to, is slower....but easier.

Edit, oops.

who using body regidity?

 

[GT40 MKII]

Thanks my friend @GT40 MKII for your test I appreciate a lot. Thanks again my friend

I tried it last night.... And dang that made the GT1 a blast. I mean the car was already stupid fast and fun to thrash around anyways but that was a rush.

 

[purpdino]

Was having trouble with this one until I switched to ooomaXimumooo's tune. Easy gold after that.
