Exeter GT Tuning (Updated with new seasonal setups)

[shaunm80]

I prefer this one over the Z06. At least this sounds like a V8. The Z06 has no right sounding the way it does. As a result: No sale

I can't disagree as your 100% right. The engine sound is a lot less harsh, It does seem to have slightly better handling in the corners which gives it a better overall speed round the track. Its easier to handle as well considering its got more power under the bonnet. Surprising car really.

 

[Pete05]

Confusion reigns. I somehow read the Audi Coupe as Audi A3!

I had both Corvettes in GT5. Got the ZR1 first and thought I'd get the Z06 to keep it company. Gutted about the awful noise it made & not impressed with the Silver back half either.
Was hoping they'd improved the sound of the Z06 this time around but drove past one in a race & wanted to cover my ears

I will do my best to make it a dream to drive. I will definitely make it the best drive I can. This particular Alfa has very good looks. Nice smooth lines and a big 3.2 litre engine.

I will do my best to make it a dream to drive. I will definitely make it the best drive I can. This particular Alfa has very good looks. Nice smooth lines and a big 3.2 litre engine.

The looks are GORGEOUS! Just look at this:

DAT ASS!

And the legendary Busso V6, is even better! (Sadly, this was the last Alfa Romeo to feature the brilliant engine )



I`m so annoyed by the fact that the GT isn`t a premium. (IMO, all Alfa`s should be premium.) Also, the GT is a great and reliable car, that still has the Alfa Romeo soul and passion.

Your tune will be excellent, and I`m looking forward to it

Are the last three gears of the megane right?

 

[shaunm80]

Are the last three gears of the megane right?

As far as i know. I haven't changed them from the higher PP tune I created for this car. I will have to check the tune when I log on later to make sure. Actually, thinking about it. they may be slightly off as the tune I based this on had more engine parts which increased the engine power. The gears were set up at 0% 20% 40% 60% etc with the last gear all the way to the right (100%) it should make a nice neat increasing line on the gear box settings graph.

No worries at all. This is the reason I tune seasonal cars myself and then publish them. If I can help at least one other person in the game, then I've done something good. One day karma will thank for me it

[ClydeYellow]

Baaaah, look at it, it's so cute!

Thanks for sharing the tune, Shaunm. I managed to get gold (DS3, ABS 1) at the first try on the Seasonal, and I am now driving this little monster everywhere. It's so fun! Not too fast, doesn't understeer, likes to kick a little bit when coming out of corners, but it may have to do with my love for hammering the throttle. The only change I did to the tune was to swap the carbon bonnet for the lightweight windows (and 2kg ballast)... It doesn't seem to affect the handling, but whatcanIsay? I didn't like the look of the hood pins.

Yellow seems to suit the car, looks very sporty in that colour! Good choice of wheels as well. Yes, the carbon bonnet isn't for everyone, I don't mind the pins on the bonnet as I never see them when I drive, I don't use a view where I see the front of the car much so they don't bother me too much.

The car will kick out with too much power but the tune was designed for that to help with rotation anyway. It is very easy to control on willow springs and any other circuit this car goes to. I don't take this tuning game too seriously, I like to make tunes which are fun and handle well. The speed is in the car when you get into a rhythm and all the elements of the tune are working together. Well done on getting gold on the first try! It took me two laps to get gold but I normally find that other people are faster with my tunes than I am myself. Strange how that happens.

This car started out as a wild child which would not listen to reason. It had tantrums and threw itself into walls whenever you wanted it to go fast in a particular direction. Its angry looks made it start life as a green angry machine but once it was more civilised, it developed a smart, outgoing appearing in the form of a blue racing machine designed to beat cars with more power. The other cars did not like this civilised machine and decided to bash it into walls. Japanese cars were most definitely the worst at this anti-social behaviour.

This little red japanese car is the reason my nice looking car has been vandalised. As i was going up the inside, it just turned in with no regard to any other vehicle.
