Exeter GT Tuning (Updated with new seasonal setups)

[cbarbosa]

I know the FGT car has insane acceleration but that car sounds so different to what it should do and the time it takes from 200kph to 450kph+ is definitely unrealistic.. I would say that car has been hacked to be that fast in a straight line.

Yeah, I believe its a modded drag car... and the hacker is not a good one too... At least he could have disguised the car and tried to leave as stock as possible... with full camber and a weird sound, not the best of choices...

​

It seems like a human isn't controlling this car.....its well jumpy and really bad positioning on the track...but how can you hack on these races though....has it been done before.

 

[Badger66]

Well @chrisspeed281 i give in gracefully...i keep getting blue in the first 3 sectors and ahead of you and then you just fly past me...lol

So well done mate....its been a blast

I'm off to buy the FGT and have a go on Silverstone'''which i haven't done yet.

 

[Badger66]

Any Hints on Silverstone guys i just got a silver with 1,44...what Controller settings have you been using and have you been using Shaun's tune as set,,,


At last Gold on Silverstone with FGT...Awesome tune thanks Shaun...best lap so far...1,40.380.

Cheers Mate 👍

The car has too much torque, so when it reaches a corner, the player has to brake way hard... Its not the first time these cars show up in seasonals, the hybriding was very popular in GT5.

I used Shaun tune,only lowered on the LSD the acc sensitivity by one. I did it with no aids and ABS1. Use the downforce of the FGT, it has tons of it. Do a few laps outside the seasonal to get used to the car. I had the advantage of knowing the track very well, i have +1000kmh on it...

Oh, and i always use CSS on 7...

Hope you get the gold! 👍

WOW, Controller sensitive on 7 and no Aids ? I tried it for fun and only puff a touch of the direction button turns the Car into a 90 degree angle

Yeah, at first I felt weird too, but I got used too and now I cant change... I use analog instead of dbuttons, so its easier for me to feel the car...

What car is this for? and at what PP?

 

[chrisspeed281]

Sounds like the Suzuki GSX-R at 450 PP. Maybe Badger used it with 500 PP for Willow springs that's why the Transmission Numbers not fit

I will be without broadband Internet from the 1st sept to the 15th september. I will check this thread through my mobile for that time but I won't be able to publish any cars during this period unless I have a huge amount of data left on my mobile phone for usage at the end of the month. I have been credit grinding (which I am doing currently) and buying cars from the dealership which look interesting to tune up when I have no internet access for the PS3. When I am back up on the Internet, There will some new toys to take to the track. I think you will like some of them. Going to be some old school american muscle mixed in there somewhere

Im sad, you did not posted the Nissan GT-R N24 GT Academy '12...

just kidding...

It will be posted in some form after my Internet downtime. This car is going to need some serious time to get it working correctly. Its one of the strangest GT-Rs I've come across in this game. I have found that I can have both understeer one second and oversteer the next second on some tracks with some of the settings I've tried out on the suspension. It will be tamed though. Sort off anyway..

One of many PD programming wonders!!

 

[shaunm80]

Two more Japanese 500PP SH cars tuned up and very quick on the 500PP SH seasonals. low 0.40s and possible 0.39s if you can get nail the entry and exits of the first and last corner.

 

[cbarbosa]

@shaunm80 @Badger66 @chrisspeed281

Just managed to improve my time with Shaun FGT:

1:34:319 - clean lap

EDIT: Replay in attach or Dropbox Link. 👍 Hope it helps...

[shaunm80]

The bandit would be proud of my recent attempt. Its not the fastest, smokiest wagon in the west but it handles like a pro and is an easy win on the 500PP seasonal.

 

[Gt amateur]

I know this was done back in April, but that tune for the 86...Thank you for that! She stuck so perfectly on Daytona Road Course. Granted, I had to add a wing to keep the back from kicking out and a few extra bits, but that suspension setup....spot on man.

Thanks. It is another one of the tunes which has lasted through PDs various version updates. I enjoy the GT86 tune. It is very fast and stable. I can see why a wing is useful sometimes to help on open tracks.

Sorry Shaun i thought it said what car it was...Doh. yes it was Chris's Suzuki GSX-R and i set it to 500pp he used it on a seasonal a few weeks ago when you were away..and got a very quick time..So thats 3 wicked tunes for this car on Willow...Yours, Chris's and WoosierGirls..Awesome
