FITT Old Vs. New Hatchback Challenge

👍

Ah yeah, the foot angle. I put it up on the base board molding or whatever for that. If the spring was as tight as the G27 one is, it'd be a problem, but there's almost no spring tension in these so it's okay.

I know that lol I got the same wheel.
I'm finally settled so I can start on my custom stand. I need to make it adjustable so I can use it and my kids.

I got it on simulation and 0/10/10. My arms are tired after one day. Most of which was spent in the Toyota TS030. Love that car. Race car has no power steering and those huge tires, so that's how I'm doing it. So far, I'm faster with the sticks, but getting very close to my times already.

Here's my new set up. Passenger seat from the Honda.

Is that a DFGT? Have you thought about the sponge ball brake mod?

Not looking for an extension, just give an excuse

April 29th 15 years of marriage. May 7th wife's 39th birthday (she is really 25 with 14 years of experience ). May 11th closing on our house.

That being said, tunes will be posted by deadline. Just may not be my best (not like they're all that good anyway).

Great shootout thus far MCH 👍 and good luck

 

[coryclifford]

Yes DFGT, no clue what sponge bob mod is.

Yes DFGT, no clue what sponge bob mod is.

I hadn't heard of it my self so googled it and found this not a ball mod but a foam mod, simple cheap and customizable.

Congratulations on all of the above.

Funny how close our lives are right now. Wife's birthday April 21. 11th year Anniversary May 1. Put offer in on a house on Saturday.

I have not even chosen my car pairing yet.

Yes, it's simply a sponge ball (or Bob) or piece of foam stuffed underneath the brake pedal. It really gives progressive resistance and improves the feel massively - I would say it is essential if you ever drive with no ABS 👍.

Busy, busy, congratulations! I thought you might have been teaching your young apprentice, @Little_krenk, the ways of the Clueless .

I've got a pair Honda vans in a reasonable state, I was prepared to inflict on the testers if you couldn't make it. Not as though they would be as good as yours, but I'd hate for them not to be represented (can't imagine anyone else would take them on) .

 

[OdeFinn]

No more work to do, only testing by racing online with it. Easy enough, but still giving challenge.

Lap with several late brakings, early enters, other mistakes, not bad laptime overall.

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

My tunes are a mess right now. Not sure if it's the tunes, the track or car choice. Will not have time to start a new pair so mine should be picking up the rear of the field. FF on a track I do not like is going worse than I thought it would. 45 minutes last night and I lost time instead of gaining.

 

[DolHaus]

I've barely started, not really picked which cars I want to tune or how I want to tune them, either way I don't think I'm going to be competitive in this one as I just don't have the time

Thanks for giving the rest of us false hope.

 

[OdeFinn]

This event is truly helpful for several things, it has now started totally new thing to explore on GT6 physics and I'm not speaking camber or LSD stuff now.
I'll post findings on new thread later, gotta write down first full specs and waiting also confirmation from game data/code/specDB. Writing this without any hardcore proof from actual code, but having data for proofing.

Thanks for giving the rest of us false hope.

Not false hope a glimmer of hope

Sorry for the double post and slightly off topic but after hearing about the sponge mod and bungee mod I decided to give it a shot settled on a 14 inch bungee.
Man what a difference it made it actually feels like the breaks in my WRX now progressive pressure on and off.

Edit; @OdeFinn post didn't show up till after I posted. bloody delayed notification on my phone.

In the words of Bjork, its oh so quiet.

Playing catch up after a week of not playing

Just had to share as I've never had this happen in a FF.
Snap exit oversteer has been achieved

Were you in reverse?

 

[Motor City Hami]

Were you in reverse?

Or driving the '65 Fiat and not realizing that it is RR.

 

[Joel]

Fiat 500 AINEC.

 

[Otaliema]

Were you in reverse?

nope doing about 80 km/h on exit of the right hander after the down hill hairpin. Thought I caught a curb, did it on every hard turn after that.

Or driving the '65 Fiat and not realizing that it is RR.

Cooper S 👍

I'd be more surprised if that one made it as far as corner exit still facing the right direction

 

[brian wolf]

Both complete - ok to test
Volkswagon Golf I GTI `76

Volkswagon Golf V GTI `05

 

[Otaliema]

OK Cooper S done, letting em em sit for a few days. make sure i'm happy with them.
Running 1:54.x in the Cooper S and 1:57.X in the 1.3i near the 3:51 mark total time 👍 and they can go faster, I tapped the wall in a couple places on each lap, I know it didn't help lap time cause I lost speed on each tap, missed a braking point or throttle point once or twice.

I have a feeling that your mini is going to be as quick as mine is. Perhaps even quicker in some testers hands. Good job

Thats the plan 👍 I just ran both cars through the data logger and the suspension is acting the same on both cars for me which is good means no major relearn for the second car.

 

[fordracer]

Be intresting tp see if somebody gets a pair into the 3:49 bracket. Sounds like a coupe of tunes may be capable.
