I'm hoping to start first thing tomorrow and post it in the afternoon. Cards are all assigned and the review sheet has all the tunes ready to go. Just waiting for the green flag to wave...ie I get control of the TV! So that's atleast 2 reviews in the same day!👍
Inspired by this, I decided to give it a go with my own tune. But leaving it at 450PP and CS tyres. I managed it, just, on the second attempt, outbraking the Shelby Series One into the last right hander and doing the Gran Turismo weave to stop him powering back past! Anyone else give this a go?

You just helped me de-stress after a test I just took.
I got on to tinker with my Mustang, returned the tune to one of my ok setups, and slapped on Comfort Softs. What a great experience and it really showed that the tune is almost good as is. My bad driving skills and grip of the tires put me about 10 seconds slower on Willow with all of that rear wheel spin.
Less grip would have to mean more skill required to post a competitive tune & time.You just helped me de-stress after a test I just took.
That makes me think a tuning challenge with high pp cars on Comfort tires might be fun.
A racetrack is defined by the white lines and what lies in between. Putting all four wheels the wrong side in search of time is like playing cricket or baseball with a bigger bat.
I've never been against hiking two wheels over the kerbs. After all, that saves on tyre wear
This might just be a dumb question, but...... I tested a couple of cars last weekend and got a few fast lap times, but when going through and officially testing them today, my times are slower than before, even in my own tune. Just seems like the tires are lacking some grip.
The only thing I can think of that is different from last weekend to this weekend is update 1.13. Has anyone else noticed the same thing or am I just having a terrible day at the track?

i don't know i just ran 1:16.5 at big willow with my final mustang setup, which is a hair better than I have been during testing.Funny you should say that... i tried last my first mustang tune i did last week and my times are slightly slower than when i first tuned it...by about 1 sec....i just thought it might of been me....Weird...
Its a little scarier seeing that many 1.15s in front of me. There are a lot of fast testers in the FITT competitions so I don't doubt that they will get very close to what you are achieving.I didn't notice any lap time differences myself between the updates, infact my 2nd and 3rd fastest laps were just 0.001 apart and both were on different patches, and 5th and 6th fastest laps 0.002 apart on a slightly different tune.
..i've done so much driving around this circuit in the last week i must of got a touch of Big Willow Fever....
Tunas are fast and agile predatory swimmers. Better wise up on those timesJust feels like there is a weird push at mid corner and the rear seems to catapult itself off the strips no matter what the springs are set at. Must be me having a bad day. The grass isn't green and the birds aren't chirping...sorry in advance tuners.
This happened to me when I tested the Vipers. Everyone has off days! What I did was just test all cars that day, so all the times were equally slow. Was sir out on the town last night?This might just be a dumb question, but......

Not out on the town, but in...maybe a bottle or two. I have seemed to grab my ears and pull my head out of my 🤬 and retested the first group and gotten better times on most. Like @biffa3 so far there is only 0.7 between all of the '13's.
This group really is going to be close..
Did you mean to put SS on the front and SH on the back?The early bird gets the worm
hopefully
dont be afraid to use 4th in turns 3,4, and 5. it needs slight throttle feathering through these sections if you use third. shift just before the redline for best results.

Two questions.....Grabber Blue? Sports Hard in the rear? - @brian wolf noticed this as well. You know something I don't?........Ok that was three questions.The early bird gets the worm
