Ah well, I'm probably just being a typical Canadian... "Wouldn't it suck to have copious amounts of power to the rear wheels in snow?"

12' Toyota 86 GT

Comfort Softs (Michelin Primacy HP's are *kind of* a high performance all season,performing more like a summer tire, so softs seemed more accurate from *my* knowledge)
G27 H-Pattern w/Clutch
ABS - 1 w/ no other assists

- 0:32.940
Nurburgring:

I had read, time and time again, that the 86GTs and brothers were running with "Comfort Softs" as the tires of choice for the realistic touch. I'm really not trying to be a jerk, but just letting you know that the cars are most realistic on the comfort softs, and ensuring that the @akyp vs @iTranz times weren't based entirely on the tires.

This looks fun! I'll have to try it next time I get on.
My car is a 2011 Dodge Challenger with the 3.6 pentastar rated at 305 hp with the 5 speed. It really has no performance mods to speak of, but it has a pretty nice set of Michelins. I'll just have to limit the v8 Challenger later.

So I was looking forward to this before I even had the game, and after getting it for Christmas from my very kind wife I finally got a chance to try this today. I have a 97 civic with some basic mods. It has gc coils, adjustable shocks, some cheaper but softer sports tires, few smaller things and bolt ons. I used the 97 civic type r, got the adjustable suspension, put it to approximately the same specs, detuned the power (a lot) down to 135 hp, used sport hard tires and gave it a shot. (G25 with shifter and using the clutch)
First five laps at gt arena ended with a best of 32.58. I then did a few more and got a best time of 31.81. First lap at the ring got a 9:05.03, for an initial combined total of 9:37.61.
I also tried a couple more laps at the ring with a 8:54 being my fastest so far. So that would put the additional tries at 9:25.81
I will probably try a bit more if I can. I saw a few cars at the 8:48ish area I would like to try and beat. (I'm just going to go out on a limb and guess you won't absolutely need proof of an old civic)

Was so awful and cumbersome round the GT Arena and on the ring the engine doesn't have the same pull as my six with the in game being a four-pot.
Hopefully somebody learns hacking on gt6 soon and I can put the 330i engine and drivetrain in the 120i.

That's without skid recovery force? I'm surprised my time at the ring is that far off...Ok, I'll join the list.
Real life car #1:
'13 BRZ, 6MT
Mods:
18" BBS RE + Michelin PSS tires.
Camber Bolts, TRD Intake and some pads/fluid.
In game:
BRZ S '12 stock
BBS RE +1 rims
SH tires.
The adapter to connect my shifter to PS3 died, so gonna have to run with paddles, which probably boosts my time by about 8-10 seconds on the Ring.

That's the first thing I disable, along with setting grip to 'real'. You're probably driving it like your real car, try loading the front and throwing it into corners, while doing quite a bit of trail-braking.
I'm sure someone *really* fast in GT6 could break into 7s with that car on SH tires, heck, even I could probably shave a hadful of seconds, if I try hard and nail 80% of corners.
Also, it seems that there is some camber bug going, so by setting your front camber to your RL setting you made yourself slower in GT6

@Slalom, I like that Civic, same with @Clark, I love that 1 series.
@dsgerbc, the amount of grip available from the Sports Hards is much, much better than comfort tires. Everyone here is going to have slightly different talent, but 7 minutes anything is going to be pretty challenging for the 86. Even R32 Skyline GT-R had trouble getting a sub 8-minute lap.
It's a very challenging track with a tricky car to drive fast. The 86 is actually slower than my Impreza through corners - in the game, and at Mosport in real life. Then, because I don't have the turbo, it's faster at the end of the straights, meaning that it's surprisingly easy to overshoot corners.

First off this looks fun! I just got the game and been meaning to do this anyway. I am not in front of the game right now and won't be for a few more hours so I have a few questions. My baby is a 72 Corvette StingRay. Lots of mods meant for autocross and sport driving use but not meant to be a full on race car. I have lots of data as far as HP and TQ numbers, spring rates, and gear ratios. I have several questions about setting up my virtual car as I have never really played this game seriously and have zero tuning experience.
I have replaced my stock 4 speed with a 5 speed. Being that I know my gear ratios I'd like to set them up to match but can I fully adjust a five speed in the game? Maybe set up a six speed and never use sixth gear?
What are the HP and TQ numbers that the game uses? I have numbers from the flywheel and numbers at the wheels. Obviously if the game uses flywheel numbers then those are the ones I want!
I have upgraded many parts above stock like the brakes. I have a performance upgrade but NOT big huge racing brakes. I had been contemplating doing this with my Vette in the game but when I was browsing the upgrades I only saw a racing kit. I do have upgraded brakes but not racing brakes. Can you detune brakes? My goal is to make this car as close to mine as I can so that I can wreck this one on the track and mine stays safe! What should I do?
I am looking forward to this. I've never worked on the ring outside license tests. I think it's gonna be a long time before I can keep my car on the track for an entire lap to post a number!

As far as horsepower and torque figures, I actually have no idea.
As far as the racing brakes go, the racing brakes are not that much different from stock. Tires are most important, really.
As far as driving at the 'Ring goes, it takes about 3 or 4 months of driving it like once a day to really know the ins-and-outs. I've driven the track probably over 2000-3000-5000 laps since GT4. That's GT4, Forza, Forza 2, PGR3, Forza 3, PGR4, Forza 4, GT5 and now GT6. I still learn little tricks to going a bit faster. Buut, with that said, there are simple tips...
In the first few sections, between the start/finish line and the steep uphill right hander (flugplatz) you can normally use curbs. Outside of that little section, you can't really.
Then, around the 3:30 minutes mark in the lap, you'll see a grey concrete patch on the inside of the circuit - use it. Same thing at the 6:30-7:15 minute mark (depends how fast the car is).
So, first few(10) corners, use curbs. After that, don't use the curbs... Then use the various concrete patches that you'll see along your way.
You will have a gear indicator number flashing in your heads-up display. Steady on means "corner coming," and flashing means "brake for the upcoming corner." Then it's the chance to see where the corners are by slowing down according to the gear indicator. Just try to look in to the corners on the way in.

It should be fairly easy to get it on SM tires though

SM tires would be equivalent to Hankook Ventus RS3 tires, for example. If you're running with a pretty good summer-only tire like that, then it's not a stock 86 in my opinion... It would still be D-stock (I think...?) In SCCA competition, but not in the eyes of anyone you're going to talk to. No one says "my car is a D-stock Toyota 86GT..." because not everyone is into autocross. Everyone knows what "stock with Hankook tires" means.
So, in a stock 86GT to the full extent of the meaning of "stock," a 7 minute time wouldn't be easy.

This sounds like a lot of fun. Unfortunately my car - 08 Chevy Impala - isn't in the game. Since GT5 I have tried to replicate it using a Mazda 6 to match the FF configuration, but even with max ballast the Mazda is too light. Are there any heavier FF cars in the game? Everything else I've thought of has been FR or AWD.

Who said stock? I never did. I said on SH, and I also said it's gonna have to be someone very quick in GT6.

Meh, I ran per your rules with what I have on my car. I'm not saying that on CS the car could make it to 7s, I'm saying that the guy who ran it on SM tires should be comfortably in the 7s, instead of suggesting I'm using SRF.
