To my fellow testers (notes):
This car, with its Lift Off Rotation, is driven with the throttle as much as the Dpads. Designed to mash the gas and hold the turn. Thanks @Otaliema for this car choice. I had fun tuning this one and learned a few things about flat floors and 7speed gearboxes. Enjoy!👍

Does not compete on power parts.. Lacks lot of power, only 544hp with parts mentioned.
Sports exhaust possibly missing on list?
Edit: tested with sports exhaust.

You are correct, it needs the Sports Exhaust to meet specs. Good catch and thank you.👍

@Otaliema I may be cutting close to the time limit, but sign me up as a tuner. It's been a while since I've done one of those and I think I can whip up a tune based from what I have right now.

EDIT: Here's the tune

Gearbox doesn't compete, need working initial.. Trying to achieve ratios on other way.

User error, re-read power parts, installed wrong.

Welcome aboard sir.

@OdeFinn thank you for checking the cars b

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Will get mine posted later. Revisit was not as good as I thought, and tried a few things but no better. Was less than a tenth from my best so it is what it is. Mid pack.

 

[shaunm80]

@Otaliema - I am not sure if I will get the time to finish mine off.. Assignment work is taking longer than I would like.. I will let you know by end of today if I am able to submit or not.

You do have about 24 hours from now to put one up if that helps, if your close I can give you a day extra.

Thanks, that might be useful. I will PM you if I need the extra time.

Could you do quick revisit on garage and fix +1" wheels, thanks.

 

[Otaliema]

@xande1959 thank you sir, as @OdeFinn said you need to put +1 wheels/rims on the car otherwise looks good. Note to testers just run it with +1 even if the tune says otherwise thanks.

 

[Lionheart2113]

After testing a few, I'm starting to get flashbacks of the RE Amemiya RX-7 challenge...

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

After testing a few, I'm starting to get flashbacks of the RE Amemiya RX-7 challenge...

RE Amemiya FD3S, reminds me of my last play session Really good car for drifting I had a 50% finished replica of the real car, using real specs. Got the Quantum super hard suspension, still tweaking aero balance, then LSD and power/weight/distribution. Good for 1:19s at Midfield on CS tire. Now I only wish I can paint it like in GT5

What does that mean?

sinof1337's car should weigh 1290 not 1260 right? I think it's a typo.

 

[Lionheart2113]

What does that mean?

I concentrated so much on lap times when tuning in that challenge, that I screwed up a decent car for a few extra tenths.

 

[coryclifford]

Ah, gotcha.

 

[lBt_33]

I will post my tune further, need some little improvements now.

Planned for tomorrow, it's ok for you @Otaliema ?

NOTE: This is a momentum tune, early easy braking followed by coasting in with light throttle through corners make the difference. Only way I can explain it. Harsh braking can cause momentum to cease and increase lap time. I was close to getting under 1:31 several times but never made it. It is possible though if you can find what it likes.
Good luck, all I ask is for one fast lap

Yes it's a typo he has the correct ballast listed if 60kg

Wheels +1" RAYS TE37SL Black (2nd) - original Black paint


NOTES: Car can tackle 1st corner combo with 3rd gear if braking hits even close, 1st gear suggested for last tight S-curve.
Testing, please make sure at you have installed right wheels, car become really slippery if not used those RAYS TE37SL Black wheels, don't bother to give test report if not using them. THANKS. I'm testing also your car as is you state on tune sheet.
Brake balance, do not alter, keep as is on sheet, 4/5 Racing Brakes, I'm testing yours too with your balance.
It handle precision driving with smooth lines, but also heavy duty smashing isn't excluded.
It's tuned for G27 wheel, 6/6/10 Sensi/FFB, simulation/power steering, quick tests on pad and I'll think at sensitivity 5 on DS3 goes close to good handling.

Overall tune feel is close to real car driving, bit stiffened suspension for track racing, but definitely daily driver still, replay lovers will like how body and suspension lives controlled under car. If driving this on Nordschleife you might want to stretch 6th and 7th gears i.e. 0.855/0.740.

This is tuned under FITT Compo regulations, ABS 1 is used - updating later on my garage noABS brake balance and other possible changes for noABS driving.

@shaunm80 has a 48 hour extension due to school work.

Tuning is now closed. All tunes will be linked up shortly.
a google scoring sheet will be soon made. If you want to test but are not sure if you can finish the task let me know in PM so I can hold a spot on the sheet for you.

Due to the large number of tunes submitted do the testers think an extra week would be good to allow you get all the cars done?

Not sure about a week, but an extension would help testing.
