9.8 is good but not quite as amazing as three 10s. Going to be close this one

I know, three 10's is Awesome...you're very close to that though mate, plus there are still other testers scores to come in....so good luck Buddy...👍

There are quite a few more reviews to come but I think it will be close if I do manage to break into a podium spot this time around. The level of competition is really good for this event.

No worries at all. These tunes were designed to achieve gold and thats what they do.



I have amended this car to sort this out. Thanks for letting me know.




What Otaliema says is right. Make the springs stiffer and adjust toe settings so they are closer to 0.00 and that should help alleviate some of the issues. Once you have that, adjust dampers if you need to. That is where I would start.

Hey I've tried adjust the springs to be stiffer and etc but I still manage to get on 2 wheels like this after hitting the rumble strips:

I've also noticed that using RS tyres wears out more easily compare to non tune.

If I were to use FR/MR cars with RS tyres installed with your tune, I easily spin out/get tyres overheat when I accelerate with one or more tyres on the rumble strip

Its not the fastest way round a corner but it sure looks good Soften the springs a little so they can absorb the bumps better. That should help a little bit. As for RS tyres, they will wear out faster as PD design them that way. RH tyres are the best racing tyres to use as they last 2, maybe three laps more than RS but you lose a second or two a lap compared to the RS tyres. Its a compromise.

I don't set my tunes for RS unless they have been tuned for those tyres specifically. (Ferrari FXX for example) It will take tinkering to make them perfect as you can put more LSD through them to improve cornering speed/stability. Hope that helps.

Well well. Getting close.

So about the LSD, are you implying that I should increase the values?

Yes, acceleration by 2-4points and initial as high as you can manage it.
