yeah i am…i really only tune in spurts..I drive a few laps then take notes on the cars behavior then come back to it to adjust what I feel could help make the tune better. she gonna be playing games tonight too so we are good until later:tup:Ummm..........shouldn't you be *eh hemm* spending time with your other half
Just a thought regarding testing, might it be worth staggering which car the testers start with?
I know some people randomise their testing order but others are just gong to start at the top of the list and work downwards and this could lead to a car/track learning pattern that might be unfair on those at the top of the list.
Up to you if you think it might be an issue worth considering though 👍
For me and how I tested in the last challenge was to revisit the early tunes giving them a few extra laps against their saved ghost. Most of the times did get better, so maybe it is not the order but giving the early tunes extra time at the end. After several tunes, you may learn to attack a particular corner differently which has an effect on time. Just a thought.
Have the order start with the typically better tuner's tunes so they are used as the learning curve, thus giving the other tuners a better chance.
I like Bowtie come back to the first three-five cars during testing to make sure I didn't leave anything on the track.
That's an interesting method to the testing I'll give it a go with the focus see how it works.
This is pretty much what I do. If I know a tune will go faster I keep going until I nail a better lap. Generally the longer it takes, the lower the DC score will be.
I`ve agreed with every idea so far on this subject! Maybe all we can do is have a "Test Drivers Guidelines" section in the OP of every event, listing not just the usual arcade mode, grip real, abs1. But, various authorised testing methods to ensure that testing is a level playing field?
Its a tricky circuit for sure, very easy to get carried away and fall off.
Because Ford wanted to have a top of the line Mustang that didn't have someone else's name on it. Cough...shelby...cough. The the lead designer built the original 302ci. Engine so the boss could have the best Mustang in house again and the name kinda stuck. The lead designer didn't call the ceo by name, he just called him boss.
Eek out the tenths, the podium as of late is normally less than a 3 tenths apart.
I must have slow friends. 
I'm in the same boat, my Mustang tuning is at about 1:21 right now but that feels pretty good. I have a lot of things I want to fiddle with on that tune before I call it though, some odd settings in my opinion right now.Eek out the tenths, the podium as of late is normally less than a 3 tenths apart.
Side note after 9 months of FITT challenges I realize just how slow of a driver I am, yet on my FR list for my PSN i'm like 3rd most of the time
) and we kinda had two (I guess they're unwritten rules), they were
Your tunes are always fun to drive only one was a pita and not the kind you eat.
No I wasn't I did't get GT5 till it was almost dead GT6 was confired for the PS3 and had a solid rumor launch date.You weren't around for GT5, where you? (Chrysler 300c vs. super cars). Best krenkme shootout ever
. Not sure I can find any more speed, gonna sit on it for a few days.
Hubba hubba
This will be my entry, am down to a 1:17.115, but can the testers get that? I am testing this class and the last time I tested my own tune I lost 4 tenths
She does look absolutely sweet don't she?
And black stripes for @brian wolf

It's not wr blue mica is it ?! If so, I'll be awaiting my royalty check
The reason I bring up the testing order is not about anyone being intentionally unfair, I could never accuse anyone here of that, its just that people naturally get faster as they spend more time focussed on a track. Even the most consistent driver has a peak and a trough in lap times throughout a session, whether it be a tenth or a second there is always a difference. The change to the running order simply balances that small variable which could prove costly these ever tightening competitions. 👍
My guess is Bayside Blue?
It is blasphemy, I painted my Mustang a GM color
. but it is my favorite in GT6.....Laguna Blue Tintcoat from the C7. Changes color according to light/time of day. And I think it looks sexy. Thanks for putting this challenge together Hami, I am loving my time in this car
. Do not tell anyone at Chevy please
