Hi, I am new to the forum. I've got a lot of help from this forum and now hopefully i can return the favor. This car handles great and no understeer as some of the guys have mentioned, as a matter of fact, it tends to oversteer a little. Feel free to comment on my tune.

I just tested my variation of your tune on the Monza B-Spec Ferrari race. I set the top speed to 217mph and good 'ole Bob is in his Sports: Soft tires due to regulations.

Pre-tune top lap was 1'58"-2'00" range and now he's clocking in the solid 1'52" and 1'53" range.

Some details to include are that I've got all the weight reductions in and I tweaked the camber/toe more than you. I don't have my numbers with me because I'm on my way out the door. Suffice it to say that mine's a little more aggressive than yours 👍

All in all, it's a decent tune. Good work. I'll play with all these on Sunday when I finally get a day off and Mrs. ViLLaiN will be out so I can put in some GT5 work.

:cheers:
 
I did a little variation of your tune, I ran Racing: Hard tyres and the first (smaller) spoiler. Did a 1:48.xx On Daytona Road course with a rolling start.
 
Awesome, looking forwards to the tunes. I've made some updates to the tune and i think its quite fun to drive. Its updated in first post.

i have a Vitz(136 hp) and a Sleighty for trade

would you mind trading your SLS AMG10' for it?:)

Both of those cars are prize cars. Everyone who is decently through the game has those cars. The SLS AMG has to be bought, or won by golding an SLS AMG event (IIRC).

Not a good trade...
 
I just drove your settings on Deepforest Raceway and I didn't like them at all.
Normally the italia feels like a sharp razor to drive, but with those settings it felt like a red tank...

really? do you have all assistance off? e.g traction and stability to 0? and r3 tyres?

i personally haven't tried it with differnt tyres, but i can test it out.

whats a fast time for deep forest with the 458? i think my best was 1 min 19 something and i think i can probably go a little faster
 
I tried both the standard and your tune around deep forest raceway. With the standard tune of the car i managed a 1.14.076 and with your tune I got a 1.15.378. I'm not saying i don't like your tune, far from it, just for me i felt it as if when you were half way through a corner the nose would start to drift wide but the entry into the corner is awsome with your tune
 
Dont get me wrong, i just what to know what sort of issue you have so i can help you with your settings :)

i had that issue earlier on, but once i crank up the lsd acc and dec to 50 it seems to be good after. Hope this helps. Also try to play around with th rear wheels toe to maybe -0.2

also once you get the turn in, try to punch thou the corner.

I personally think that this car is a lot of fun to drive, even compare to the 430.

I did your tune and it's amazing!
Took 3 seconds off my best on Daytona road course and that was 1:47:68 and yours was 1:44:72.
Thanks :)
 
Just took this tune for a few laps of Deep Forest. 1.12,3, 1.11,8 and 1.10,9 were my first 3 laps (ABS=1, all else off). There is probably more, I'm neither really used to the car nor the track. The power oversteer feels very nice and controllable, but subjectively I would say it comes a little too early. I'm not used to this kind of LSD settings.
 
Ok this is my review....YOU ARE A FERRARI GOD this car is AMAZING on nurb and i also can down tune and BAM i got first place thank you very much

3rd: 1.586
4th: 1.192
5th: 0.934
6th: 0.762
7th: 0.648
Final: 5.143
