1.27.9 is over half a second up on me and I think that I'm hitting the imaginary wall of my tuning ability for this particular car. I keep bouncing between a test setup and a base tune trying to decide which is better.. I am still on 1.28.709 or something around there.
 
A suggestion was made to do this as a blind test. I'm indifferent on that matter so I'll leave that upto the group of people that participating in this one.
Blind testing pros
No tester bias
Some fun with guessing
Blind cons
No early testing
Delay in tuning to testing period.

- 1: ** 27.9 or 1: 28.6 *** these times confirms that a good tune. below that 1:26, *** a fantastic lap. .:odd:

I voted for I don't care either way. Because that's honestly how I feel about it, I have no problems either way :)

I like the blind challenges, it seems like a great way to do them all personally. And they usually generate better interest which is all good :) The choice of car and tyre combo for this one doesn't seem too popular, so if adding blind testing can add a bit more interest I say go for it 👍
 
I think its more the track. Not many tracks can handle this car, make you pick speed or turning and force you to build your transmission to suit the very high speeds the car will reach.

But based on the votes in so far with 5 yes 0 No and 3 indifferent I can assume it would be good to make this blind. I'll give it one more day but chances are it's going to become blind.

Fair point 👍 I hadn't considered the track was that much of a factor. To me it's one of the few places I'd consider taking this beast :scared: :lol:

Yeah, it's one of the few real race tracks that you can really open it up and still have the slow and mid speed turns to go with it, and is short enough anyone can learn it in 50 or so laps.

There could be early testing with blind testing. Just need Event Master to release the tunes as they receive them and tuners to stay discrete about their tunes.

After running a poll the consensus is run thus as a blind testing challenge. So this is now blind I'm retaging so everyone is aware of the change in case this changes your mind.
Tuners I will start a PM with you soon that has your tuner number. Please use the template posted in the OP for sending your tune to me.
I will post tunes once I confirm there are no set up problems so that early testing can start for any submitted tune.

what does blind tuning mean ?
 
what does blind tuning mean ?

It means blind testing. All tunes are submitted by PM and will be posts by the host. Testing will be the same as the last m power where all reviews are done on tuner number. Testers will not know whose tune belongs to who. :)
What Shaumn said. I was not quite awake and half distracted when I posted this morning so phrasing was a bit off Post has been correxted
 
This will be a blind testing challenge, all tunes will be submitted to myself via PM using the template below. I will send each tuner a PM with your tuner number on July 22nd if you haven't sent your tune before then.
Tuning rules updated.
Basically tuner numbers will be assigned in order of submission until the 22nd at which point all tuners will be given a remaking number. Sign ups will close on the 22nd as well. Late sign ups may be permitted on a case by case.
 
So anyone willing to post a 5 lap combined time?
7:42.235 with a fast of 1:31.896
Not bad for only my third tuning session on the car..I think :odd:
 
1:28.2xx and it was a really scrappy lap, not sure if I'm going to enter though so put me down as a tentative tuner 👍
