Cone Killer Racing(CKR) 10/20/11 2 New tunes in the OP

[bigberry]

I'm confused, how exactly does this work?

Your question isnt very clear. How does what work ? the tunes do you mean?

All the tunes are on page 1 simply copy the settings on to your car and your set.

 

[woodey04]

Oh, I thought it was something like you send somebody a car, they tune it and then you get it back. Now it makes sense.

MINI Cooper S' 05 Review (Did a 3 lap race against other MINI's on Indy and Top Gear to get a idea of how it works)

Indy: It accelerated good of the line and I got her up to 100 in Turn 1. I got her up to 150 on the stretches and held around 130 in the turns. My top lap time was 1:06.981. All in all a good car for a MINI race at Indy.

Top Gear: A true test for a cars ability due to the mix of long wide straights and sharp turns. I couldn't get her to 100 until Hammerhead, but I accidentally broke early at Wilson. She pulls away from the stock MINI's in Follow-Through. She handles amazingly well. My top lap time was 1:27.308. It was a fun race to do.

Final Verdict: This tune is great for somebody trying to find a great car for the MINI Challenge and the Seasonal event. My only complaint with her is that the 6th gear comes in too late and that you can't get her full performance out at Indy. I give you guys a 4.75/5, not perfect, but an A+ overall.

Now for my tune request: I would like a 600PP Racing Hard Tires Ferrari California. If it can't go that high, then 550PP.

 

[Indy Racerfan]

Basically our TOSS is you do a review of one of the tunes, That tuner will in return makes you a tune if it's in our limit range. of the car of your choice

Offline usually, Online if I am trying to change the UCD

 

[bigberry]

Cool ill get started on the California shortly.

If you go into the licence test go to test 1 once it loads skip until you get to test 5 and the used dealer is fully refreshed. It takes 5 cycles (races) to fully renew.

 

[Indy Racerfan]

Hey All Just got a real neat PM from Hypersphere, looks as he is interested in joining the team as a tester reviewer for the Garage. I PM'd him to make sure it goes to Zero and SFB too.

Glad I am not the only one, I was expecting a bigger "wow" factor.

I am starting to wonder if we will EVER get the features that we already paid for...

 

[Indy Racerfan]

While I'm excited about new tracks and the ability to sit in cockpit of standards, but am still not happy about leaderboards and no standing starts, and as Zero and I talked about why no match making....anyway will have review of Stars Viper in a little while just cleaning up some structure issues....

Hi Guys. It was great to get online with you last night, even the very brief hello from Indy.
Had a brilliant little race with BB round the Touge track. shame that the last lap i just couldn't get close to keeping up as the 4 laps beforehand had killed my front tyres, I hand to pull the hand break up at every corner to stop me sliding forward into the bushes.

I think I got a just under 4 minutes round that mammoth track in the Skyline. and I was pretty happy with that.
sounds like the better drivers are getting around 5 to 10 seconds quicker than me from the shoot out post.
Really looking forward to testing now.

Sorry I had to drop out early BB, i had an alpha test lined up and needed to do the testing and writing up.

Look forward to hooking up again some time. Maybe Indy will be able to stay a little longer next time

 

[bigberry]

Its a blast going round with another car, unless its Praiano dude is quick

I need to finish the M5 build im doing but that tracks addictive.

 

[cactusOnR]

Yep I really like the track. I know people are moaning about it a little. But it really is what touge is about. lots of tight corners and no high speed sections really. I have tried so many times to make a good touge and they always end up so long. I'd really like a good touge that took about 2 minutes start to finish. The only down side to this track is it's 4 minutes long and you get through a set of tyres every 3 to 4 laps with tyre ware on. other than it's length it's great.

I do find having another car to think about a little distracting. when you got passed me I focused too much on trying to go faster that the track would allow so started to hit the walls more.

hot lap on my own I did basically 4 minutes. in the race with you the lap took me 4:18.xxx

18 seconds worth of mistakes. But it was fun sitting on your bumper when I was going well. Sorry for the couple of late breaking rear end shunts

 

[bigberry]

If you try to race youre done , right about that . Slow in fast out is the motto . I dont remember any taps from you although we both slid off at the same time more than once.

 

[Starfirebird]

Just wanted to give you guy a heads up on something.

I've been thinking about it and i'm going to wait til after the Spec 2.0 update before i release my Skyline some of you have tried.So i won't be doing any tuning until after the update just to be on the safe side.

 

[bigberry]

I havent tried it is it on share ?

 

[Starfirebird]

I havent tried it is it on share ?

Yes it is.👍

You can run it almost anywhere,but i tuned the car on Suzuka and did a run on The Ring and ran a 7:07.xxx time with it.In better hands this car will run sub 7's easy.

This car was a pain to tune.If you have one of these in your garage you should try the non tuned version so you'll see what i mean.It's a nightmare

 

[cactusOnR]

I'm a big fan of skylines. They are heavy beasts with a tendency to understeer.
But if you can tune out the understeer, then they are really good cars. I was in a Touge tuned R32 with BB last night and held my own fairly well while my tyres were still good.
Don't want to say what BB was driving as I'm not sure if it was a touge Shootout car or not. But it went well.
