That was quite an extensive review.. I really enjoyed reading it.. Now i need to get my hands on that car.
I was pleasantly surprised by the review it got. like the review says, its a car for all drivers, for any driving style. It wasn't meant to be that loose but I couldn't make it grip any more than it does and in the end I went with what it was. As it turned out, it wasn't a bad effort at all. :)
 
Hey Shaun,

So I'm guessing Nico is off your Xmas card list huh? No need to answer that, I know your thoughts on the subject :mad:
That move around the outside was never going to work. Apparently in the post race debrief, Nico admitted he did it to prove a point. That's what Lewis is saying anyway.
These two are the new Webber/Vettel or Senna/Prost rivalry & if they keep it up for the rest of the year, my man Dan might just sneak away with the silverware :P
It's obvious Lewis has the speed to get the job done, it's just that Nico is winning the war between the ears with tactics, dirty or otherwise :odd:
I'm glad Red Bull have finally discovered it's easier to pass in a straightline than with downforce & corner grip. I don't think I've ever seen a Red Bull pass another car in a straightline previously :eek:

Bring on Monza :mischievous:
Yes.. Nico is certainly off my xmas card list.. The team pretty much backed up what Lewis said in the media.. What they should do is rat him out to the FIA. Have his race points deducted for Spa and have him suspended for a season for blatant cheating. Couple this instance with his parking incident at Monaco which cost lewis the pole, along with his dummy thrown out the pram mentality, it is the least that should happen to him.

Vettel.. Vettel who? Its like he's a ghost this year in this new RB car. You'd of thought he be one of the main ones to adjust to it like a duck to water. Instead, drivers like Ricciardo and Kyvet are really impressing among the drivers this year.
 
Just tuned: Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C5) '04 at 500PP SH. Times set on the new seasonal were 1.41s and low 1.40s. Should work on other track. Going to tune up this same car to 550PP SM and 600PP SS. Will be included in the next batch of tunes to be uploaded. Not sure when this will be but I think you will like this car.

Edit: 550PP SM version an easy win in the new seasonal. Best time set was a 1.33.1xx and it has so much grip and speed through the bends. Very nice car.

I'm Ferrari Fan from the beginning and there is not much to celebrate this year. The whole F1 seems like a B-Spec race to me. I miss the old school with screaming V10 engines and motor oil in Drivers faces. And i don't think Nico's stupid act was intention :)

Sadly, I can't upload the great replays because of the file size. :irked:
Just to prove a point?
This is my style for giving feed-back. They'll understand. ;)

Yep. You got it. Zero camber for this tune (and many others around that time)
Clear. ;) Anyway I drove with the default camber and it was good. When you'll find the time you maybe will correct the tune sheet. 👍
 
I move next Monday so I have a few days left to enjoy in home comforts :) Won't take too long to get everything homely in the next flat though.

That's cool...i bet you can't wait mate:tup:

Impressive... I bought **** tons of cars today that will all be equipped with Shaun's tunes ranging from 350-450pp.
I have way too many in the higher
ranges.

Good for you mate...he does have alot of wicked tunes in that range:cheers:

JCS have you tried Shaun's VW Scirocco R '10...i know its slightly above the range you wanted but it can be driven at 500pp or 529pp...this is such a Beautiful car and tune...its one of my favourites for Seasonals around that mark or more...this is only a thought:cheers:

Thinking back i think it did a 1.19 on the Willow Springs 550pp seasonal a couple of months ago

4 and a half tunes ready. the half tune is the RUF CTR2 '96 at 550PP SM. This car works brilliantly on 550PP SS but needs some refining for the same car to work as well on SM tyres. I am slowly working my way through the current development list. Some nice cars are heading this way. The Shelby GT350 '65 looks awesome and is really good on 500PP SH tyres.

I have fond memories of the Scirocco R.. I used a 500pp tune from another tuner to win that 600pp seasonal at Mt Panorama. I even brought the car down to 480pp and still won. That car,with the right tune is an absolute beast.

I'll make sure to try out Shaun's tune on that car.

Edit: If my memory serves me well i believe it was Banditkarter's tune that was made for the Scirocco R superlap at deep forrest seasonal. It all started when Whoosiergirl put up a pic of her result from the Mt Panorama seasonal with that car.

Major 🤬 storm ensued and someone called her out to provide proof. She did.. and she even took it one step further by tuning a Honda Oddessy to 470pp and won that seasonal....again..

Here's Whoosiergirl's Scirocco R replay from Mt Panorama.





And here's her Odyssey Replay.

I assume you mean that the tunes are good enough to beat those of a higher class around them :) I am not surprised if I'm honest, I used 350PP CS cars in a previous A-Spec race to beat 450PP SH cars. Its a matter of driving them smoothly.
i won the 550 PP a-spec with mix lap time 1:40 within 2 sec and i won with mix lap time 1:35 within 2 sec also. That makes me thinking

edit : same rabbit

Nice one...good for her:)

After us mentioning the VW R '10 i thought i better take her for a spin on Trial Mountain seasonal and i took her up to 550pp just to see what time she could do and WoW she handled Awesome and got a 1.35.195...first race...so she can def get a quicker time..seeing this was the first try...Love this car and tune cheers Shaun 👍
