Exeter GT Tuning (Updated with new seasonal setups)

[Badger66]

The Pescarolo C60 Hybride-Jud '05 is definetely the fastest and most controllable LMP for La Sarthe Seasonal 10/07/14 out of the 13 cars i got Gold with.
Praiano's tune but added High Turbo. Power 84.5%. Ballast 50kg..you get 700pp...982 bhp and weight 950kg..Downforce 600 850 and Brakes 10 10.
Best Race lap time so far is 3.21.653...but i'm sure in the right hands you can get a quicker time

This one is an absolute gem of a car. When you've mentioned the other Pescarolos, this is the one I thought you were talking about

It really is Pete isn't it...its so fast on the straights...wicked at cornering and brakes very well its the best all rounder for here

I sort of have a love/hate relationship with Pescarolos. I won LeMans 24hr in GT4 with the Peugeot engined example & was just over 20 hours into doing the same solo with the Hybride in GT5 when I accidentally hit restart
A few months of weekly therapy sessions and the occasional nervous twitch were the results & I may get my revenge if we ever get to do proper endurance races again

Oh no Pete that's terrible i would be soooo gutted and still twitching now
Was that before they introduced the race pause in gt5 and you had to keep you PS3 on for the whole race
i was so happy when they brought that in
They really should bring back the 24hr Races they are sooo cool its whats missing from this game even though i still really enjoy this game...do you think they will
Ps thats funny about the therapy and twitching...lol

 

[Badger66]

This will make you laugh..i was looking through the dealership to find another race car for La Sarthe and spent 2mil on the Ferri FXX '07 thinking it was one...set it up with Shauns tune gave it ago on free run (boy shes fast) then went to enter the race and it said race car only not normal car....computer says no lol
Oh well at least i have a wicked car to use on other races
By the way Shaun awesome tune

Yes, it was before the ability to come back to it.
I was starting to see three tracks so decided to have a quick 30 minute nap. Came back half asleep I guess & wow, I just started twitching again.
The two things I want the most, to make a return are, endurance & well trained B-spec drivers. I think the two go together really. Adds to the realism. In GT4, B-spec didn't guarantee you kept the lead so you might return to find you really need to put in a great drive in order to collect the chocolates.
B-spec also came in handy for those grinding dollars & doubled as training.

That was so dangerous to ones health-no pause..no wonder you were seeing 3 tracks and twiching Not good for the PS3 ether.
I agree they were both wicked i use to love sitting back on B spec and watching your driver earn you millions..lol that was fun:tup:

well lets just hope they bring them both back

 

[Pete05]

Funny thing is, I managed to do the Nurburgring 24hr without drama. Sure it took around 26 hours but that track doesn't allow any slack. I'm sure the long straights at Le Mans started to hypnotize me.
I was worried about the PS3 as well so didn't want to leave it on pause for too long. I got told the laser will burn the data in that one spot if left on for too long.

I was leading last Lap at Nürburgring with my BMW M5 before the orange Cerbera Speed rides a Kamikaze Attack. It seems the Cerbera always plays the Part of the Bad One Someone see the Brake Lights glow at the TVR ?

It's pictures like that that tell me it's done on purpose. Hardly looks like a late-braking oversight to me.
Makes me want to send Anthrax to the programmer who's responsible for such stupidity.
I'd like to know how many have GT devotees have jumped off the bandwagon owing to this alone.

Anyone know how you get an online petition up & running and then sent to PD?

I always brake late as possible but the TVR desided to NO Braking

Hey Chris. That's bad when it happens but it happens IRL too. As an advice, if I'm allowed, you must position on the inside line early, and then there is a small chance for that you'll be hit. That's what I did and it worked for me. 👍

I would take my Hat off if you are able to fight versus LMP's with the FXX. Fast at straight but braking and fast Curves always maked me sweat in the Ferrari

Good for you doing that race...i bet that was intense I never got to do the 24hr Nurburgring but always wanted to...but its a long story. When i did the 24hr La Sarthe i did it for about 4hrs a night and i was getting hypnotized and started to see things like looking down a tunnel on the straights...no wonder you had to have break doing it non stop like that...it was good for man and machine when they bought out the pause lets keep our fingers crossed they do patch in the 24hr races

Thank you very much for kind words and drink Cbarbosa

As far as the thread goes...A, i don't know how to and B this was a joint effort... With chrisspeed281 and Pete05 for coming up with the idea of High turbo and added weight and of course the Awesome tuners Shaunm80 and Praiano All i did was change a few settings for this track and raced.

But i do appreciate your post and hope it has helped people with getting gold

This seasonal race has been the most fun and tears i've ever had with this game.....is it a game or is it real...lol

Many thanks

Badger
