Thanks
@skeagracing. 👍 Fortunately, I just won the Ferrari Challenge with a 456PP Ferrari Dino 246GT Replica Tune provided by
@Ridox2JZGTE. He posted it a couple posts above this one. For full disclosure, the tune is supposed to be for 450PP, but I forgot to lower my Power Limiter and ran at 100% power. I'm lucky I did because I barely help off the Enzo. I won by only tenths of a second. This was a wild ride...definitely one of my most enjoyable wins in a GT6 Seasonal Event. I'm sure a more skilled driver would have had a easier time winning the event with that Replica Dino 246GT, but I am still all smiles since I pulled it off.
The car is pretty amazing! Ok, it doesn't have much power...I know. What it lacks in power it more than makes up in being a nimble, quick steering, responsive little bullet. I find myself carrying just as much speed through a lot of corners and in some cases even more speed than the heavier, more powerful Ferrari's. Of course, once you hit the straightaways you'll find yourself at a slight disadvantage, but that's why you need to make the most out of the twisty's. Don't get me wrong...This car is no slouch! Just compared to cars like the F430 Scuderia and the F40, it seems rather lacking in the HP department.
I highly recommend this tune for anyone wishing to try a lower powered Ferrari for this event. Ridox gives you a few suspension setups to try and I recommend the 1.09 Update (Track Pack). It has stiffer springs and 1.0/1.0 camber. If you are not comfortable running that much camber, just follow his instructions for running default Ferrari Factory Camber Settings. They're something like 0.2/1.0, I think - double check.
Put it this way, what do ya got to lose trying this tune for the Ferrari Challenge? Even if you don't come in first, you've now got a PERFECT 450PP car tuned for the next 450PP Racing Event that PD gives us. You might just surprise yourself too. I honestly didn't think I would win at 456PP. I thought second place all day long. I guess the sun really does shine on a dog's ... err... you know, every now and then!
