I am happy with a 1.44. That isn't bad at all considering the gold time was a 1.49 or something around that?

The gold time limit is set at 1:54.000

I decided to give your version another go.. pulled off a 1:43.599. Almost on par with @Soren Jacquet 's 1:43.569.


It's got some speed this thing. A bit more turn in on certain key points would be nice. But other than that a solid tune. Not that i was surprised. I've grown accustomed to that.

So as it sits now your tune stacks up quite well against @Otaliema 's tune considering they're separated by a few tenths around that track.

Great job Shaun.

@shaunm80 well looks like you have covered your weakness in tuning 👍.
I need to work on mine more. MR.

If dirt tuning has been Shaun's downfall in the past, it sure doesn't show with this tune.

Whatever he did to this one, he did it right.


Concerning your tune @Otaliema .


I altered the Torque split just a hair in order to get around that pesky handbrake bug. At 50:50 the handbrake affects the front wheels as well as the rear. It's funny as i thought that bug/glitch had been sorted out a while back.

I now run with 48:52 distrubution.

I believe a pic is worth more the a thousand words... (well... from the Live Data at least... :P)

Understeer only appears if you apply reckless driving, other then that... 👍
Just noticed the 2nd gear ratio needs to be higher, on the MP hills the Mini died a bit... :)

I tuned it at 45:55 so it should have no problems up to that split. I just it had better exit at 50:50.

Interesting..

It sure exits better with 50:50, but the entries becomes the issue when the handbrake bug sends the car straight forward instead of bringing out the tail.

So i landed somewhere in the middle with 48:52. Still exits well and the tail swings out just like i want it to do.

Great time and great win. I have noted the advice about 2nd gear on hilly tracks and will figure out a gearing for that sort of track at some point :)

It took a little bit of experimenting but this tune finally came right. Still some learning to do with dirt tunes but its getting there slowly.

Nice time set. I can't remember what I finally settled on but I'm positive that you are faster than me.. not that I am surprised by that. :)

Hi @shaunm80 I tried your Mini tune and it works so well 👍 I did a 1:11.5.. on a free run at the new Mid-Field Track. I think it's one of the best VGT

not that fast considering the top aliens are running sub 1:40's.

Those guys keep their tunes very close to their chests.. I doubt they will give too much away. I would happy where you guys are. 1.43s are really good.

Thanks mate...it's been so hard trying to keep up with you, Chris and fordlaser777..how fast are you guys going...:cheers:

Don't get me wrong. I'm more than happy with the time i got. I remember doubting myself if i could breach into the 1:43's, now i sit close to breaching into the 1:42's.


Didn't think i had it in me.


@Badger66

It all comes down to entries and exits and clean lines. I know i could go faster if i could shake the habit of sliding/drifting as much as i do. Sure, it looks nicer going sideways through a corner with gravel and dirt flying out from the back, but it's not the fastest way around a corner.


Wish i could post a video of my latest replay, but i wouldn't want to give away too much info. If you catch my drift?

:cheers:

I agree...I find myself drifting much to much also on the corners...but the ones i have been taking my time on i get around it much quicker.

I do catch your drift..lol...i can see it in front of me all the way around the track....ha ha

I so mad at myself ... was infront of JCS at Toscana and Then in the last left turn before the finish line at hit the barrier so a Tine under 1:43 was gone
So 1:42.xxx is just rund the corner .
But that's how it goes so I give it another go later.

Good Sunday to all you fuel heads
