Oh it is a given, just trying to build excitement. So I couldn’t sleep and went back on the game. I have a few tunes ready now. One of them is the BMW Z4 gt3 swap. Oh boy, a 700pp track destroyer. Any European league event is made seriously easy now.
The only cars I don’t have ready is the 787b engine swap as I don’t have a spare rx7 yet. Also need a new mr2 car but I have that engine for it. Gonna be a fun day tomorrow tuning all these cars up. I also have a amg merc gtr version 2 ultimate lightweight car to publish. You can all expect a massive tune drop at some point in the next day or two.

An easy to drive 700PP monster that will crush any road event at this level. Safe, fast and massive acceleration from the GT3 engine swap. A must to have in your garage for sure!

BMW McLaren F1 GTR Race Car '97 800PP
This car is epic. BUY THIS CAR NOW!
To be honest, that is all that needs to be said about this thing. It drives like the Stig on heat, handles awesomely through any corner and will win any 800PP WTC race effortlessly.
Strategy for Sardegna Road.
FM6 until lap 8-9.
Change tyres if you wish but it isn't necessary. Refuel completely
FM5 until the last lap and then go to FM1 and blast to the finish line.
Effortless win.

Ford Roadster 550PP
Sports Hard Tyres
A fun (old... ancient) car that is actually pretty good to drive. Think of those old F1 cars where the drivers would drift them round fast flowing bends before slamming the power down and sliding out gracefully. Well, this car does that! It is a lot of fun and safe to drive at the limit. Tuned at Watkins Glen and a fun way to beat the first race indeed.

A really nice to drive american supersports car. Not sure what bracket it actually is but in europe I would call it a sports car, americans probably call it a american supercar. I am not going to argue which is right and which is wrong as it is just awesome anyway you look at it.
This car is safe, fast and fun to drive.

Mercedes-AMG GT R '17 700PP (Ultra Lightweight Edition)
Widebody Kit
Sports Soft Tyres
(same as the original parts list but with addition enhanced mechanical parts)
I have received some level 5 parts for this car and thought I would enhance and make this tune a little better for the new version I have. The original one is still good if you don't have Weight Reduction stage 5 but if you do, use this tune instead as it makes it more reactive and fun.

Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE Package '18 700PP
Sports Soft Tyres
An easy to drive and safe 700PP American race car wannabe. Will dominate all races in its class. Drive it a few laps to learn its tendencies and you'll hopefully understand the way in which this is tuned. This car is a torque monster so needs to be driven with a specific set of skills that only Liam Neeson has. Good luck!

Nissan Fairlady Z 300ZX TT 2seater '89 700PP (Engine Swap Tune)
Sports Soft Tyres
Engine: GTR Nismo
Widebody Car
Sized up wheels (wide)
This car is super stable in the short tight corners for acceleration out, once you hit the mid-high rev range, this thing comes alive and will get a tad squirrelly on you but that is part of its charm, it won't kill you, it will just warn you what is to come so you can prepare. Give is a drive and see for yourself. A very nice engine for this car is the Nismo one.

Right then you lovely people. That is the first lot of tunes sorted out. I hope you enjoy them. I have also updated the Ford GT '06 tune as the original tune was slightly off for the Watkins Glen race.
Lots more to come. I have a very long list of cars in my garage and all being well, I will have another load of tunes ready to publish tomorrow. Back to the land of tuning for me now. Let me know what you make of the tunes as always. Many thanks for those who have been posting feedback lately. It is great to see.

I have to admit, I struggled to tame her at Sarthe on RH’s (72 on the Restrictor). The brakes feel underpowered and the back-end gets loose very easily under any throttle application. Any surface water on the track really highlights these tendencies. Some adjustments to the LSD may be in order, or it could just be me. Fuel economy is excellent, FM1 is worth 3 laps, nearly ideal for LM. The times are not the best and better results are certainly attainable.

This doesn't surprise me. It isn't really a tune for this race. I do plan on making another m3 engine swap car purely with RH tyres as I know the fuel consumption will be nice. Gonna be a full blown area package. Not as much HP but the tyres will more than make up for it. You still won by a good time though which is amazing.
It is an awesome and extremely powerful car. It will burn extra fuel but it feels sort of similar to the Silvia tune in how it will drive.
Thanks for testing these cars out.

I have found a gem of a car in the engine swap ones. The Yaris GR RZ with the 2JZ at 650PP is an absolute beast of a car. I have nearly ironed out all the niggles and it is right up in terms of lap times of the 700PP cars. Not bad for a hot hatch with SS tyres. I think you will like this one when its done.

Thanks, Glad it worked for you. As I mentioned in a previous post, I will be working on a dedicated tune for this event and it will be even easier then all being well.
This car definitely makes all these 800PP events easy to win. Very nice time and your pace is the same as mine. Good work! This race is a really nice money maker and not too boring either. If you had fun in this car, give the CLK-LM merc a go, that car is awesome on this track.

My first on-the-record completion at Spa, starting to get a feel for the course. The car definitely did the heavy lifting though, lol. I failed to get lap times because the car started fishtailing wildly out of the last chicane.
I was feeling pretty good after that, so gave the Chili’s a try…not so good. Man, the AI is on PCP or something, I can’t even get close in ANY of these races.

Great win. For the Chili races use the following tune
McLaren F1 GTR - BMW '95 800PP
If you don't have this car, use the M6 GT3.
