Its been a busy week this week. I had my final Anatomy and Physiology test, lectures which have given me a lot of information for my assignments and I had to do a assessment for clinical skills yesterday. All of it went well and I only have one lecture next week. The tunes which are half finished already should be finalised in the near future. Apologies for being a little slow on the tune front recently but I am sure that you will like the tunes which are half way done. :)
 
I managed a 1:15.993 with the TS030. Didn't notice the total time but i did save the replay so that can be easily checked out once the missus surrenders the tv.

Nice to see you bring out cars that i wouldn't have thought of using. How does the Gillet Vertigo handle on this event?
I did not try the TS030 so far and the Gillet Vertigo has good grip and run smooth :) I'm sure if i play around with the fine setting she comes under 1:18

Great adventure! 👍
 
Do you have a Cietza V16T '94? I have a 550pp tuned down, but it has understeer on corner exit, then snaps into oversteer even with TC1. It's a very fast and responsive ride, I think it's right up your alley. Sorry if you did a tune for it already, I didn't see it. :)

This is a tune which is half way done in my hands.. It needs some work to stop oversteer on certain corners but it is getting there. I will have 2 version of this car when they are both perfected. :)

Just won the A-Spec Intermediate level race using your most excellent tune for the BMW M3 (Chrome Line). it was awesome. the al cars did their usual bashing/banging into me. the lead ai car was a Ferrari 430 Scuderia '07 caught & had passed it half way through lap 3. the rest was easy. thanks for a great setup.

Again, like the Clio R.S. '11 tuned. this car can easily achieve silver and has the potential to achieve gold with a clean lap. I was 0.4 seconds of gold with TCS 1 and ABS 1 only. I turned on SRF as i was getting stressed with the wet conditions. That gained me a second straight away.

Its official, my record of achieving gold without SRF on every seasonal is now ruined. :( oh well.

Great machine, still very competitive. Extreme agility and easy to drive. Stable even in low gears. :)

👍
 
My 2D tune is not so good and old. I don´t remember for what track but it was a very special tack tune... perhaps the ring , i don´t know.
I'm gonna try it anyway. It handles a bit squirly stock. I'm gonna try your tune for the 250 GTO as well. Still hinking about buying that Ford MK IV too...say is the old Alfa Romeo race car the TZ2? Is it a good car? Oh, and i didn't mean to hijack your thread Shaun. ;)

Just a word of warning about your prospective purchases.
The Ford MK.IV is only a 4-speed gearbox so I would go with the GT40 if you don't have that already.
The Alfa Romeo TZ2 is a beautiful looking car but for some reason, centre of gravity or roll centres perhaps, it likes doing the two-wheel act through corners. Beware the kerbs. It also has less than 200bhp in standard form making it hard to find a competitive race in offline mode.
Hope this helps.
