Okay here is my times:
Otaliema:
1:24.784
The issue I had with this car was understeer - it tended to be off-throttle and under braking - a few laps in I got comfortable with the braking points and found some more time, but it just felt unresponsive in the corners.
DC - 6
Bowtie-Muscle:
1:24.565
Very much what I was expecting a Viper to be like, not too loose, very nice in the corners but was not able to be as smooth as with Brian Wolf's which was pretty similar.
DC - 8
Ridox:
1:26.173
Main issue again was understeer - this time it was on-throttle understeer and under braking. The brakes didn't feel powerful enough and I couldn't get comfortable over 15 laps, the best time was on lap 4 strangely. LSD felt like it was causing a lot of the understeer and it was harder out of the corners because of the high Accel. But to just drive it felt okay, trying to find the limit was pretty much impossible.
I tried with ABS 0 and found the brakes locked up all the time, switched to Standard brakes and found it better, but it locked up occasionally and it was still no faster. If I was to use this tune myself in the future it would need to be adjusted to my own driving style.
DC - 5
Brian Wolf:
1:24.342
Much like Bowtie's but better - more responsive, better under braking and less oversteer meant it got through the corners that bit faster.
DC - 9 (if something better doesn't come along)
Lionheart:
1:23.968
It was a hard fought 23, but it felt good when I finally got it after so many restarts - initial fastest lap was 24.525, but I felt it could go much faster (irregardless of MrGrado's video, lol) so I persevered and despite all it's other problems in the right hands it's probably the fastest one here, but just not for me.
I kept bouncing off the rev limiter on the straight which although minor the sound was rather annoying, the brakes didn't feel comfortable for me, and getting back on the gas was difficult and had to be done just right. It also pushed in the high speed corners a little and was wild over the bumps, more than the others it seemed.
This was a beast I couldn't tame, but despite being so unruly it was fast.

Three issues with the tune which prevented a good time -
DC - 4
DolHaus

Wow, I 🤬 love it - this car just feels AWESOME, I feel this is a Jeremy Clarkson car and a car I can really enjoy sliding round the corners like they're not even there. I wish I could've gone faster because it just felt really good to drive on the edge. Not really a grip car, but I didn't spin it out much at all. Even if the brakes did lock up on downhill bits I didn't care because it held a slide really nicely as if it was made for that kind of shenanigans.
Probably not a car for everyone - but I loved it.
DC - 10 (Because it's the most fun one yet)
Gino
1:24.827
A really nice tune, very good to drive - lovely coming out of corners, and lovely entering corners in 2nd there is a nice slide but most corners are fine in 3rd - the gearing is a bit odd though, and that's the only thing I'm not keen on.
DC - 8

I like it, but I don't really love it - it's not that it's slow, it's no slouch, but it DOES NOT LIKE BUMPS. It can get air pretty easily, plus wheelspin out of corners means a hard time battling the car throughout the lap rather than just enjoying chucking it into the corners. It's quite snappy let's say, but not much fun, I'm sorry.
DC - 7
787b
1:25.113
Throttle input had to be so delicate so the car wouldn't just do a 180 on exit of a 2nd gear corner which in turn meant a more tentative laptime. Though every other part of the tune felt great.
DC - 7
MrGrado
1:26.527
See above re throttle input only far worse. I don't know how you could've gotten a 24 on DS3 with this tune.
And again, good tune otherwise - more oversteer on entry for this one though which wasn't a bad thing.
DC - 6
Xande
1:23.925
A fantastic tune - different from DolHaus's because this is a grip tune, but no less fun and effortless to drive.
Very well done.
DC - 10
oppositelock
1:24.164
An extremely well-balanced tune - outstanding.
Some minor oversteer on exit, but not worth quibbling over really.
DC - 10
Motor City Hami
1:24.792
Another great tune, well-balanced but a little bit skittish on some of the bumps and a little bit of oversteer on the exit, but other than that a very nice tune.
DC - 9
DaBomm
1:26.634
It's not a car - it's a Zeppelin! The slightest bump and it will fly. Though granted it does have a bit more agility than a Zeppelin - it'll oversteer under braking into most corners, quite severely at times, but then in others it will refuse to turn - so again quite Zeppelin-like.
And it goes without saying - slow too . . . like a Zeppelin!

Three issues with the tune which prevented a good time -
- Wheelspin - even in 3rd gear going round a mid-speed corner
- Understeer - on entry meant braking earlier, but then mid-corner
- Brake lockup - high brake balance was a hindrance here

Thanks for the review/feedback. Understeer will more likely comes from not only the LSD, the car was tuned for smooth tracks. I will drive the car again and make adjustments on suspension, will post the changes on my garage later on, Iainoflo85 version 
Rookies!
...also no reinforcement
