@shaunm80
Lap Time; 1:38.467 DC; 9,2
Impressions of the tune; Much the same as Xande's tune with the juddering under hard braking but a bit more predictable. Brake gently and early and it's not quite so bad. It is a shame however, I felt this car was pretty good everywhere else, hung in well on the faster corners and had good turn-in and agility to deal with the chicanes well. Not as smooth a ride as others but still capable of quick times (I feel I owe you a few tenths for deciding to "keep it together" in the last bend on the best lap, as just about every time I pushed it more I had to stop for a bit to make some sandcastles :D :guilty:).
Thanks for the review. Hope you didn't make too many sandcastles.. that would take a lot of time up :) Glad you enjoyed the tune and you got a great time out of it too. Well done!
 
@Thorin Cain : Thank you for the kind words and the score :) Never expected that high on heaviest entry :P How was braking for the 1s turn ? I bet it was scary at first to find the braking point to enter the high speed right curve without going wide to the sand dune. 1:40s is a good time, really good for such heavy beast :) I did 1:40.353s on 1st lap with the bigger wheel ( after @Otaliema told me about +1 inch wheel ) the car tops out at 205mph before braking for 1st turn.
 
I want a retest, too! :D

Or a rest test, whatever that is.
:lol: cheeky...

Thanks Shaun :). Over a normal 10 lap session for me at least 4 maybe 5 of them :lol:.

I took it carefully on lap 1 and was shocked at how well it slowed :), then took about 4or5 laps to get comfortable with it. I think it was about 8-10mph slower through there than the lighter cars on average but entered more stable than most which helped. Made up for it a little with more power and a good launch....sadly not enough to lug the heavy beast around in a competitive time :(.

Thanks for the test! I've been out of the loop a while, is high weight and stiff springs something of a recipe for disaster?

@Thorin Cain, the scared face is actually the best description of the driving experience, both when it's stock and as it is now. As a proper Lamborghini should be! :lol: Forget hot-lapping, let's look good and scare the crap out of the driver. The Diablo would be proud! You've pretty much nailed it, it's a bit of a pig a lot of the time, saved only by the gearbox.

@sinof1337, summed it up pretty well. I went with the low ride height simply because of how flat the track was. Not too sure if lower ride height still has the same effects as in GT5. But at least it looks cool when it's sitting in the garage! :dopey: Just as well, since that's where it's staying from now on.

Lap Time; 1:38.054 DC; 9.0
Impressions of the tune; Overall a very good tune, has great flow through the bends, and maintains good traction on the way out 👍. Sadly :(, the drive was spoiled in the braking phase on all hard braking zones on this track. For me (Button user) braking had to be applied very, very carefully :scared:. Otherwise the front end had a bad judder. I initially thought this may just be a braking issue, but I tweaked them a bit and the judder was still there. Being able to help solve this problem a bit by keeping the throttle open a little, suggests that the issue may be LSD related.
Also I felt the weight shifted off the front end a little too quickly for my liking. But otherwise a great fun drive. Thanks Xande

thanks thorin, great performance, all you wrote happens, I consiencia it but I say if you like to create a good time in the range of 1:35 *** have to attack on corner entry. I congratulate:bowdown::cheers:
 
Did my average lap really was 1:14.296?
Prolly not.
I musta typed one lap in with an extra number on it. I'll look and correct.sorry was very tired when I posted that so I didn't notice the out of normal lap.

Edit: I found the error. I entered @sinof1337 lap for your car as 98 not 68 easy typo on a 10 key pad. I'll patch that up and post corrected standings
 
Sorry for the several day delay on closing this down. Been rough couple of days.

Congratulations to the winners for both cars.

All in all this was a tight pair of races this far in to the game. And Sadly it appears will be my last time to host an event or tune a car for GT6. My disk died, our PS3 is starting to act up, so we are just gonna save up for a PS4 and switch platforms.

@Ridox2JZGTE, @xande1959, @shaunm80, @fordracer, @Onboy123, @DaBomm4, @sinof1337, @coryclifford ,@OdeFinn, @Lionheart2113, @787bcgr, @fordlaser777, @ugabugaz.

Thank you all for a great send off from the game. I'll lurk around. :cheers: :gtpflag:
 
Congratulations @Lionheart2113, @sinof1337 and @fordlaser777 for your respective victories :bowdown:. And to @xande1959, @ugabugaz and @DaBomm4 for your well fought podium finishes :cheers:.

Big thanks to @Otaliema for another fun challenge :cheers:. Sad to hear it'll be your last on GT6 :(. I look forward to participating in some more in GT Sports 👍. In the meantime enjoy all that extra time you get to spend with the wife, your kids.....and their lego :sly:

Legos.....*twitch*
They have gotten smaller so now they hide in the carpet.
Thank you sir. It has been odd not playing but now my console time is directed at Kingdom Hearts 1.5 remix Proud mode. That is proving a useful time sink at night waiting on the kids to sleep.
 
A big thank you to the tuners and testers... Not to mention a congrats to the podiums and @Otaliema for running it. Sorry to hear this would be your last until GT Sport.:indiff:
A special note to @shaunm80 & @xande1959 for making very good tunes for both cars in my opinion; 1 is difficult enough.👍
:cheers:

Good to see you're keeping the standard going for the button mashers! Feeling ticked off i've missed some great comps since the old fatty packed up!

Yeah, this is where I fell, I kinda rushed the SP1 tune and thought it was good. But it's good to see another podium finish. Congrats and thanks to everyone who participated for making an interesting challenge to watch progress.

Oh the craziness of my summer, get married in May, been busy almost every weekend since, and moved 125 miles south for an interesting change and new challenges. This challenge made all of it more fun for me. :)
 
I would like to say thank you to all the tuners for putting together a good selection of varied tunes. I was glad I took the plunge to test them and I hope my reviews weren't too bad.

As I said @Ridox2JZGTE I'd retest your SP1 with ABS set to 0. I adjusted the BB to 4/6 and found this to be a good setting for my heavy [] thumb. I couldn't replicate my lap time with her but got very close with a 1.08.411. Overall impressions haven't changed she is a very pointy car and she'll go wherever you put her, back end cab be loose if pushed too hard. She's a real drivers car. 👍 Well done.
