I've just checked both Tune Directories and was shocked to find this car hasn't been tuned by anyone yet. Well, if they have, it hasn't been posted :irked:
If you know of a tune for this quick cat, please let me know.
 
I had this just sitting in my garage collecting dust. I had the intent to tune it at one point. I think I'll do a 650 tune to race A-spec. Thanks for bringing it back to my attention, Pete.:cheers:
 
It is a tune from before the 1.09 "physics" update, so it should be in the archives section of the tune directory. The consensus was that there was a significant enough change in the physics that those older tunes might not perform similarly to how they were originally tuned, that is how I understand it. I pulled out an old tune from before that update and drove it on 1.16 and it was exactly the way I originally tuned it, feel and everything. ;)

Edit: It appears I'm wrong?

Is the XJR-9 worth buying? Been looking to get a new LMP car but don't know which one to get :confused:

I've only just bought the car a few days ago so I can't compare between the two physics models.
All I know is, I tried the car at LeMans in the Int.A Dream Car and it's default setup wasn't that impressive compared to the Sauber C9 or the Mazda 787B. It felt like it had very minimal downforce and as a result, didn't feel that glued to the track as the others. Nothing wrong with it in a straightline though :eek:
 
There were 2 topics in my post, sorry for that, first I was saying that the XKR-9 would most likely be in the old section of the tune directory because of "new physics". The second thing I was saying is I tested one of my tunes and I believe that you should be fine using the tune, it should still feel fine. I should have been more clear the first time.
