Let me know what you like, or don't like.
I improved my time with it tonight and I'm now P301....or was.
1.29.9 with my tune. I'm close to the limit with it, only lost a couple of tenths in the last chicane (as usual)

Tomorrow I will try dart_field and doodle's tune
Being bored, I started to go through all the cars I could, left stock (TCS 0), and there's a clear group of cars that can do it, and some that can't. They gifted some cars with SH tires, others with CS. Some have a 4 speed, others just a 3 speed.
450 Camaro Z28
454 Shelby GT350
467 Nova SS
Then, I take the car to the Apricott seasonal, turn off ABS and win there too. Fun.
Here's my setup if anyone would like to try. I used this setup as a base and worked from there. Didn't really experiment at all after I went under 1:28 barrier on the first night so I'm sure I can find a way to tweak it so it's a little quicker.

It is not to bad David .Lord this time trial is a bitch. So slippery with Sports Hard tyres. Mind you I got gold using a decent tune from the previous same TT of 2015 but best I've been able to make so far is 1:35something...and that in itself was a chore. Talk about mumble and cuss lord amighty....had to laugh in between too.
The 630PP TT with RS tyres was a lot easier IMO.
Thanks for graciously sharing your tunes @Doodle and @o0Maxx0o . I'll give it a shot tomorrow when I catch my breath again. Taking a break for now after a fair amount of high blood pressure tonight. Cheers.
It is not to bad David .
With some cars maybe But a gt40 ?... That car must have grip. More grip then what it have in this tt. I can drive very good in the Formula gt, So that means I can drive in a Formula 1 car?@Kossie you have no idea how a real car slips and slides, cause you don't drive a real one. It's a lot more than this game would lead you to believe. Having raced a car for 9 years in my life, I can tell ya, tires are a lot more slippery than this game leads you to believe.
Nice job guys! I may give your setup a go at some point, Maxx.

Hate to tell you this Wedjim but I tried your tweak, started down the hill to the left/right, lost it at the left hander shot me across to the raised batter on the right hander which shot me upside down into the barrier on the left side of the track which shot me back to the middle of the track to roll back on the wheels. Gave up after that.I tried a couple of different tunes, but after about 8 attempts to make it to the tunnel without going red, I switched back to mine and tweaked it a little.

I adjusted the power adders so that I could be at 100% power with no ballast. Race exhaust and I can't remember what else. But it helped my power to weight ratio get to 2.39.
Best lap now of 1.30.7xx. And it was a little sloppy. With another go I think a 1.29 is there, but that's my limit I think right now.
I think many players who play this game can not even make the first turn(s)
This is fun and crazy at the same time.
