I have just tuned one car with three different tunes on it. I have another 4 cars left in my garage to tune but the only problem is time, or lack off, right now. I will spend an hour or two when possible and hopefully get tunes out ASAP.

If you are looking for cars to buy in anticipation, i would suggest buying the following.

Toyota FT-86II concept '11 (Already tuned)
Minolta Toyota 88C-V '89
Bentley Speed 8 '03
Nissan R390 GT1 '98

As you can see, a mixed bag of tunes to come. I want to make the three racing cars as good as I can before I publish though as they should be unbeatable in races once tuned right.
I have all of them that you have mention and waiting to put a tune to them.
 
Wow that looks AMAZING! Do you think this going to be a teaser game before the full GT7 is released?
Truth is, none of us know. What we do know is that it is a beta game so we will get a game that might be buggy but by having loads of people playing, testing and reporting back, they should create a better game straight of the bat. Whether or not this is going to be the full blown GT7 game, well have to wait and see but regardless, I am excited and looking forward to getting my paws on it. :)
 
A couple of more cars confirmed as winners on the 10lap Eifel event.


Honda HSV base model. (Delicate throttle control is adviced)

GTR-R35 Touring car.

GT500 NSX Base model. ( same as with the HSV)

GT500 GT-R. (This is the odd ball of the bunch being at 578pp and dominating the race)

RX-7 Touring car. ( Be careful with this one as it WILL try to bite your head off)



Have a great day my fellow gear heads.

Thank you for letting me know. Some odd choices in there but great choices none the less. I will add those to the list ASAP :) Hope you are well and the Mrs Lord is doing well too.
 
Looks good but it probably won't support my G27 wheel (I can't stand regular controllers for driving) and I don't want to fork over the money for a PS4 and a new wheel.

You hit the nail on the head! An easy $750-$900 on all the new hardware just to be able to play on a new PS4 with a wheel? That's just too much right now... Hopefully by the time GT7 actually comes out I can afford to upgrade ALL my hardware! :cheers:

No worries mate. I just wanted to inform you of my findings. The 578pp GT500 GT-R base model is a car that i suspect is running a praiano tune. The others are your creations.


I also ended up with a completely nerfed down Mazda 787b stealth model. Not as fun to drive as the others because of the simple fact that it has monstrous ammounts of grip which makes the car quite boring to drive. Sure, it sounds good, but too stable and grippy at that level of performance.


Me and the missus are doing just fine.
 
I know my garage has been devoid of new tunes lately but you will be pleased to know that I currently have 5 tunes created and I am just finishing off two more. Hopefully by this weekend, I will have something uploaded for you all to drive.


can we get more details (which cars we might expect),or will it be a surprise ?
I'm looking forward to them ;).

Chris, I'm the last bloke that would
hold that against you. I only wish I could do that myself wether it be in rFactor or GT6. Let's hope PD remember the correct length of an endurance race for GT7. 24 minutes is a cop out & wasn't going to impress anyone with half a brain :irked:

You are very brave trying the GT40 Mark 1 with CS tyres. I applaud your sense of adventure for sure :)
 
I just achieved gold on Eifel using a Tommykaira ZZII '00 tune. Only problem is, I have no idea whose tune it is. All I know is that it isn't my own creation and it came from a older seasonal thread when this car was in fashion. If I get chance, I will publish it later with my other tunes and give the credit to whoever can prove it is theirs. :) It is a mighty good tune though I must say, I only wish I designed a 600PP SH tune to work so well on CS tyres.

A powerful mummy wagon designed to scared any kids, that may reside in the back seats, to death. Drive it smooth or with that inconsiderate anger that all mummy wagons seem to be driven with. Either way, this car is a hoot.
