I would, if i had that car. It's not available for sale right now. Same as the Lancia.Check this out
It's the slammed front ride height on the Tomo that's the main culprit in causing the instability down the straight at speed.At first I thought the standing water set off the high speed wobble but if you just kinda let the car float around on the straight the standing water doesnt affect it at all, try to turn the wheel just the slightest though and there will be a massive wreck with your name on it.
Keep at it m8, faster lap times are possible, you just have to learn what speeds it's capable of doing on certain sections with this tune. On my first few attempts, my times were in the 20-21mins but as I pushed the cornering speeds my times have dropped to 19's and low 18's now.I have been 20:00 flat a bunch of times with a 1:27 best lap but that 19:00 mark still eludes me, dam AI.
If you are learning tomahawk now, for start, TC5 FM6, ASM on, countersteering strong, and switch to manual gearbox put in 7 and run whole race in 7th gear. Very gently on first lap, and watch your maximum speed and try not to go over 450 km/h for more, if you are driving faster, car is becoming unstable in higher speed.I would, if i had that car. It's not available for sale right now. Same as the Lancia.
I tried some more cars, but can't catch up. I used one of the cars, the subaru Rallye road car in the other Tokyo 600pp Race (5 rounds) and won it, but the same car on the 12 round track won't get me near the first few cars.
I tried this one too:
PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7
Honda NSX '17- 600PP - Sport Medium tires - WTC 600 Tokyo Rain Waiting the next update and almost sure they are going to erase the Tomohawk from the money maker. I did this request that also for me an urgent tune. I have the R33 but this 4WD that drive like MR is a lot more fun to use. It's...www.gtplanet.net
and the speed is quite ok, but i lose much time in the corners, because the car seems to turn really bad and i need to slow down a lot. maybe its and older tune.
i guess i just can't beat it with normal cars, because they are all too slow to catch up on the straight if they handle well.
will try the tomahawk now again then.
I totally forgot about that,its not fast enough to keep up on the long straight with auto trans.The pikes peak one? I remember it from GT2, i think, where you could "fly" it with abnormal high speed. But i don't have it, and i guess it's only in used cars? By the way, is there a way to check used cars from outside the game? Some companion App maybe?
and
is right, but unfortunately:
this is true. i tested it with automatic, and it simply stays in 5th gear around 240 km/h, which is way to slow to get the AI, even on easy. Thats why the DP100 is no option for me.
I bought the GTR Nissan and will try that later, and then try the Tomahawk again with Settings from the video in the first post here.
What do you mean by this? Ford Focus?Depending if you have any of the engine swaps,the focus with the gt-lm engine swap,i can do this on a non stopper,if i remember its on SH tyres but i found it quite forgiving to drive.
Yep, the Ford Focus with the GT-LM engine swapped in.What do you mean by this? Ford Focus?
Yes,sorry mate.`18 Ford Focus RS,NOT the ST.I do like fords so i may be a bit biased.lolWhat do you mean by this? Ford Focus?
Ford Focus with the GT-LM
Ok, will try to find a video for this and try. I trid the focus race car myself but couldn't get enoough speed out of it.18 Ford Focus RS,NOT the ST.I
Exactly! I noticed for this to be <600PP, the RotG for the first measurement speed needs to be low, like <0.5. I'm assuming there are thousands of variants that'll work, but it's finding the exact combination of settings that's, statistically, very improbable. Think of alllll the combinations possible with front ride height at say, 71 - you have (i think) 30-combinations of just rear ride height (70 - 100?). And for each rear height you have every combination of anything you can adjust - AR-Bars F/R, expansion F/R, compression F/R, Freq F/R, Toe F/R, all the Diff settings F/R, ECU, Ballast, Ballast positioning, other power thingy, Stock/Manual/Racing transmission lolNeedle in a haystack. Click, measure, click, measure, click, measure

To be extra debbie-downer, take Ballast (0-200), Ballast position (-50-50) and ECU (70-100). For ballast you have 201-weights (0 counts as 1) & 101 positions (0 counts). That alone gives you 20,301 combinations. ECU has 30 levels * 20,301 = 609,030 different combinations. For math sake, assume 1-second per combination: 609,030 / 60 = 10,150.5-Minutes / 60 = 169.2-Hours / 24 = ~7.1-days if going 24-hours a day for 7-days lol. Factor in the 30-levels for the other power setting and you're looking at ~211.5-days straight (18,270,900 combinations). And those 18.3-Million combinations are just the 4-variables ECU/Bal/BalPos/Power. 900-combinations of ride height x 18.3M = 16,443,810,000 (16.4B combinations = 521.4-Years at 1 per second....)
The math is easy to figure out if you have the game in front of you: VarA# * VarB# * VarC# * ....VarN# (N being the final variable). You'll probably end up with a number with 40+ 0's that would take Hundreds of thousands to millions of years to check at 1-per second.
That being said, I'll keep looking for one lol!
Reading through the replies, sure there are lots of different cars to cater to your driving style - both glitch and non-glitch. It sounds like you've at least done some research there. So a few things about this race you need to understand in order to conquer it was many different cars.Ok, will try to find a video for this and try. I trid the focus race car myself but couldn't get enoough speed out of it.
is there no car thats strong enough to use intermediates and still stay under 600pp? those tires would make it a lot better, but they cost so much pp. I tested some setups, but they were always too slow.
I could win Sardegna 15 laps race with GT500 Supra quite easily, though it also has those very strict rules about crashing. Too bad there is no Supra GT500 like car for 600pp, lol. I love it.
Edit: I cheked that engine swap thing, so it's pure luck with roulette tickets. I don't think i have it yet. Too bad. I get 1 Ticket every day for driving a bit, is that the only way of getting them? I got all menus cleared except one extra menu.
Thanks for your time and in depth explanation.So a few things about this race you need to understand
I've put on close to 4.5k miles with the A220 on this race. I can assure you, the reason you're spinning out (assuming you're using TC5) is you're driving on the wet portion of the track. Even with TC5, if you mash the throttle/brake on a wet portion of the track, good chance you'll have instability and unless you know how to counter/correct, you'll get penalty and/or damage. Unless you're using A220 or Tomahawk, you can only afford maybe 1-2 penalties.For example the A220 was so hard to controll, i couldn't stop twisting in corners.
So, i managed to win with A220, but since this is also a glitch, i can use tomahawk too, which is a bit faster i think.

Still no way, to beat it with a legit car. No idea, how people do it, since all non-glitch cars i used are too slow, to catch up. Need to drive perfectly to get close to them, and don't bumo into walls for penalties. And since this track is without any space next to the street, almost every brake or turning mistake leads to a wall, sometimes, AI behaviour leads to a wall as well.
Not gonna try any more cars, spend so much money on this already. Just gonna use glitch cars to win and get money.
Well of course the car itself is faster, but also like on ice, so what i meant was, that "my" race time with A220 is not that much less than "my" race time with tomahawk. I think its 25, to 23 minutes or something right now.Ya think????
It is beyond easy to win this race with the Aston DP100 and no glitches. If you short shift this car it is far faster than the AI. When I use this car I am leading before the end of the first lap, I usually pass Gallo in the braking area to the hairpin. I lap up every car 2 times competing this race frequently and lap everyone twice except 2nd and 3rd every time I run this race with the DP100.So, i managed to win with A220, but since this is also a glitch, i can use tomahawk too, which is a bit faster i think.

Yes they do cheatThey cheat, they use Soft tires on a wet track, when you get penalized they straight up run over you and never bother to avoid you and keep the same pace they had and that’s also because they also ignore any blue flags making your life impossible.
I get even every time I see gallo in the hairpin I legit run into the back of him going 180mph with no success, (he glides to the barriers and spins hard lolol) the dude will spin out wait like 5 seconds get last place and by the end of that lap get back in first place when I pass him up again 🤣🤷🤷🤷
They cheat
AI bumps you in the back to make you spin, or bumps in the side during a turn, they don't get penalties by raming the wall, but often enough make you toch the wall and laugh at you. Really annoying in such a race, where you get so many handicaps.Yes they do cheat
Spa is freaking hilarious to me, one time I know C Mcewen had to pit in because he was running out of gas since everyone was going in with 3-4 percentage left, so it started to rain of course and as I was making the turn, like you mentioned that train of AI(him) literally t boned me trying to pit in, but doing so missed his pit entrance because the track was slippery, tell me why I decided to follow him since I was two laps ahead anyways.Yes they do cheat
I overtook one by mistake under yellow that just appeared as I was side by side and they slammed the brakes and before I could give the place back, 3s penalty.
When they pass me under yellow, no penalty.
I predict the rain on spa
Enter just as it starting to sprinkle, exit when it is starting to be classed as rain.
By the time i get 1/4 through the lap, track is 1/3 wet, yet I can not even gain 1s on the AI infront even though I am on inters and they're on softs kicking up rooster tails
If I tried the same I would be sliding into the walls, like lando did in russia 2021
The Bolted down physics of the AI is annoying.
They just have to feather touch you to spin you off the racing line.
You ram them at 200km/h when they're doing 100km/h, they go slightly wide while you are off into the barriers.
The AI has the programming of a train
Wilk on far right, was out of fuel.
The rest of the AI would not overtake because that means getting off the racing line.
Hi,Well, i could achieve a 3rd place with an NSX. I got Gallo right after he left his 2nd pit, but the white car driven by japanese AI was still ahead of me and doesn't pit a second time, and then, the black Supra got me in the last turn. I don't think there is a more difficult race on easy than this one. Also, you can't say if a car is good up until lap 6 or 7 and if i get only one penalty, race is over, with a non-glitch car, because:

@Rotherbach K
Well, yes, maybe, but the corvette is a glitch car too, so if use those, i can just use Tomahawk an make it quicker. I found it helping to set acceleration both to 60 and it seems it does corners better on higher speed, so the only real slowdown is the hairpin. Besides, there is no need to be over 500 km/h, because you win anyway, so i just stay at 450 on the straight.
By now, i can win the race with glitch cars, but still not with regular ones. Sad, but acceptable, i guess.
