This car is very, very fast. On Apricot hill. will be hitting 190mph before the end of the long straight. Brakes are good but allow time for the extra speed the car has for stopping. This car likes throttle control. It can manage any corner on Apricot Hill without difficulty. Trick is to learn how the car turns and use its momentum rather than forcing the car at round corners at high speed.

Big thanks to all the testers.

[ChrisH]

Hi Chris, As per your feedback to the original tune, I have made a few revisions to this car. The rear end is now looser and have more reaction through the bends, LSD has been adjusted to stop the rear tyres spinning up and causing the car to spin off track and I have played with the downforce to improve rear stability. Let me know what you think to the changes.
Many thanks for the previous feedback!

Been mad busy lately, I should have a chance to give it a try tomorrow. I'll keep you posted!

The Chelsea Tractor. It never goes off-road, only clogs up the streets of London for the daily school run. Good throttle control is needed with this car when cornering, it can hug a line but needs the right speed to do so. Fun car to drive around and is easily controllable when the rear starts to slide.

This car isn't very loud, it isn't very fast, it isn't really that exciting either. Have I sold you on it yet? Thought not..

Note: It does win on the Electric Car Challenge. One plus point to all of the negatives!

This car is electric but it is fun! pretty powerful for a car full of iPod batteries. Looks are stunning (I think they may have spent a lot of time looking at a Maserati) the torque figure is stupendous! 133kgfm!!! Seen as it is a eco car, It was painted green to match its credentials.

Muuuuuuch better on the Z06 tune man! The suspension settings were much improved, and I actually prefer it to my setup now. The only thing I retained from my setup is the diff settings, as I still prefer those. Great job though!

No thanks to you. Wouldn't have known which areas to change unless you had given the feedback. I am happy that the tune was a vast improvement. I am getting better tuning american muscle cars with each car I attempt.

I am giving it a go now. to get it unto 594PP you would have maxed out the car with flat floors and bigger rear wing I'm guessing. I have built a 550PP car which has all the power parts installed and Oil change. The handling issue may be the weight distribution. It is quite heavy in the front due to the car. I have added some ballast to balance it better. On first impressions. This car should fit perfectly into the 550PP category. I am sure that the handling settings once I've got them sorted will transfer (with minor adjustments) into a higher PP version. Will post a tune for this ASAP.

Okay, give this a test, let me know what you think is good so far and what needs adjusting? I am using my driving style which I know isn't the same as other peoples.

To get the best out of this car, throttle control is needed through the corners but once you have past the apex, you can full throttle onto a straight and the car has loads of grip for great acceleration. Tyre wear is okay too (as long as you don't cook the tyres through the corners)

I think I see now why you having handling issues and transmission problems. Try out my tune on your current set up. I didn't install a wing my tune but you should set the downforce to 15 and if i was you. add ballast as indicated on my tune. It will make the cornering ability much smoother. Don't worry about removing the flat floor. It may actually improve the changes I have made to the car already.

Can you elaborate? what is the problem exactly?

 

[SanerDK]

My car is now 591 PP, 562 HP. Its very good on track, can handle turns without drift By the way its 6 gear tune max 1,054. Max speed set to 180 km/h (112 MPH)


Problem was it can drift easily, but so much problem on races. How can you prepare tunes like these? I wanna learn too

Happy to be of service. There is no secret to tuning, just learning the way GT6 physics work with the different cars and spending time to understand what effect changing the suspension settings has. The best cars to start with if you want to learn to tune are sporty FR cars (i.e. Mazda MX-5, Toyota Scion, Subaru BRZ, Honda S2000). They are all small in size and you can get a feel for what the changes are doing a lot easier.
