Got the gold with the lotus on brands. I can confirm that having active steering on "mild" is helpful. I used TCS 1 ABS 1. It was not as traumatic as the Time spent trying with the F3. I can't remember my settings for monza. Good luck.

Edit: I stuck to the racing line all through this time

I'm in the same than shaun,but for me is only the lotus brands hatch LAP.I only got a 1:07.553
I haven't got close to 1.07 yet. I am busily finishing off college work for handing in this week so tuning and Senna are on the back burner at the moment. Hopefully I will be able to do a lot more work on fun stuff at the end of the week.

I achieved a score of 6106 with this tune. It is capable of more given practice and a bit of luck with the sharp corners.

I found that I scored better if I held the normal brake down whilst entering a corner and then hard on the power sliding towards the following corner and repeat this and the points build up fast.

Oh yes, The BMW is a little bit of a challenge but that Renault one is about 40% luck and 60% technique. I had to get gold using the brake as much as I did the accelerator. If you are finding it difficult, my tip is to Use braking into the sharp 90 degree corners, let the car slide through hitting the apex before you use the accelerator. For the long sweeping bend, Harsh braking once, get the rear end about 45 degrees out and then full power for the corner keeping the car on the racing line. Slide out towards the outta track area near the end of the corner before you come back in before the final flag. I found that gave me the most points in the Renault.

Awesome and thank you. I had forgot that I had the 15th Anniversary-car :) I'm not a very big fan of these TT's, but I think I'll get back to this one. After a first testlaps, a wall jumped out onto the track during my second lap (I swear its true ;) A friend said I braked too late, but I doubt it ;) ) On the third lap I got to 0.01 second from gold, fourth was 1:19.xxx and the fifth is 1:18.xxx. The only difference between our setups is that I use the 5-gear transmission. I just don't want to use the floppy-paddle gear-shift since it wasn't in a Ford from 1966 :)
These TT's are a great opportunity to get used to the wheel though :)

Thank's Shaun for the detailed Tipps. Silver with 4306 Points are pretty ok cause Drifting feels crampy not funny to me(hopeless case). I prefer race against other Cars so i wait for A-spec Seasonals to come

I can understand you completely. I don't mind these single hot lap and drift challenges as my tuning garage is expanding through these quite substantially but I would like to have some proper A-Spec seasonals, one make races against a field of cars etc. It would certainly help with my credits if they brought those out!

Cheers for the tunes Shaun. Got gold easily with your Lambo 4wd drift tune. Same with the BMW Z4, just managed 5923 with more to spare.
The Lambo drift tune is really nice. I like the balance that the car has with drift and controllability (I think thats a word) You did well to score 5923 on the BMW drift event. I found that event fairly difficult compared to previous drift events.

Awesome!! I was just about to ask you if you had any plans of doing the F40. It is a beauty of a car but could do with a bit of stabilisation.

This car is certainly in need of stabilisation and i am scratching my head trying to figure out how to do that... Its a nightmare. I mean, I get the corner entry handling perfect and the rear end will slide around with no LSD acceleration at all. I tighten up the rear end and the front end doesn't want to do corners. It literally has no interest in them. I am just going to have to find a good balance in between and be happy with that.

Edit: It is done... well my head is with the car as I was going crazy trying to perfect something that was not playing the same ball game as me.
