Of course the standard rules apply here.
No AIDS other than ABS 1, non handling aids, driving line blind spot are allowed.
Refresh yourself on the FITT Standardized Rules of conduct
Pay particular attention to rule #13

13) Driver feedback, both positive and negative, is strongly encouraged and should be done in a constructive manner. Not all tunes work well for every driver. Personal attacks WILL NOT be tolerated and may result in penalties or disqualification at the discretion of the organizer(s) and also may be subject to sanction by GTPlanet Moderating Staff. Treat all participants and spectators in a respectful manner so that everyone may enjoy the event.


If you have a complaint of any type PM ME! DO NOT AIR IT IN THE THREAD


If you supply a custom transmission please cross your set up PRIOR to posting.
Once a tune is posted it is FINAL.
Exception, correcting building instructions for the transmission to get it right. If you miss type a setting and don't catch it prior. Sorry you can fix it later. 👍

If you notice a problem with a tune before me please tag me and quote the tune Thank you.

I do not have the time to do a blind challenge this time around Sorry.

[Otaliema]

sorry didn't need this spot. Maybe I'll load pictures here later. ​

 

[xande1959]

I am recovering well, being can not but I can contribute my tune
👍

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Can't pass this up, will try and put something together.

 

[shaunm80]

I will make some time to put a tune together for this. I have an assignment to finish but I will get something thrown together.

 

[coryclifford]

In as a tuner.

 

[CBH]

Tuner please.

 

[Otaliema]

👍

Great to hear your doing well sir.
If you have a prebuilt car for this you're welcome to send it in if it needs adjusting to fit regs I can make the changes if you want.

Tuner please.

Ya'll have been added.
Anyone game for testing?

Maybe, not sure.

 

[Otaliema]

Maybe, not sure.

Should i mark you down as tenitive?

Edit fixed typo

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Should j mark you down as tenitive?

Yeah, ok.

 

[Otaliema]

Yeah, ok.

Done sir.

Also corrected tuners post and testers post had the backwards -_-

 

[shaunm80]

Put me down as a tentative tester and i will see what time I have available after my assignment deadline.

 

[CBH]

In Track Settings, what Time do we have to be on ?.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Nice choice of car Will check my garage, had C7R made long time ago and see how it goes at Indy Road ( it has body rigidity ) so may have to build another car, will decide to be a tuner if my lap time is not so bad Guessing 1:34s at least, based on my experience running similar power/weight cars on SS there.

 

[OdeFinn]

@Otaliema power 565hp, does it need to be exact that or can it be under?
Earlier events allowed that so I'm assuming at it's ok and I'm registering as tuner, possible tester too, depends bit on next few weeks on work.

 

[Otaliema]

Put me down as a tentative tester and i will see what time I have available after my assignment deadline.

Sounds good sir.

In Track Settings, what Time do we have to be on ?.

Use the non variable track option.

OP updated with track, scoring.

@Ridox2JZGTE ill mark you down as tenitive.
@OdeFinn yes you can go under power and over weight if you really want too.
Should I bark you down as a tuner?
Tires can't be changed though. This will at least keep the car some what competitive.

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

Not to be a pain but......is +1 inch mandatory?
Will stick to the rules either way, have several versions of this car, but none at this spec. Love this car though, fantastic choice 👍

Edit: @Ridox2JZGTE
I would assume 1.34 would be slow, 1.32 Easy.

 

[OdeFinn]

@Otaliema yes for tuner, probably as tester. Will confirm tester part later.
@Bowtie-muscle so my 1:33, is slow.. Needs something more then

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

@Otaliema yes for tuner, probably as tester. Well confirm tester part later.
@Bowtie-muscle so my 1:33, is slow.. Needs something more then

I will never call you slow
But, quick setup and two fast runs at Tour of America, ran a 1:32.8xx......but that WAS NOT in Arcade Mode.

 

[Otaliema]

Thank you @Bowtie-muscle it was my first car in the game. Love it, hate it gotta drive it
Yes the wheels must be +1 it changes the way the car takes the flat turns makes it a bit more challenging to get it right.

@OdeFinn added to the lists sir.

Yes it does, which is why I prefer the standard size. Reread banned parts and edited with the strike through. The weight is also tricky (maybe), I usually go minimum of 1230kg. Makes this very interesting indeed

Tour of America ? 1:32s I only ran a few laps with replica setup with body rigidity, less power, 1290kg, 51/49 and 1:34.3xs, 6 gear arrangement ( Xtrac C7R gear ratio ), only topping 180mph on the straight. A clean run would do 1:33s, but I need a clean build anyway I had standard size wheels.

1230 is max reduction
1290 is Stage 2 weight Windows and a hood.
The power level was picked to allow free use of any combo of parts with in reason.

 

[fordracer]

Sign me up. I would like to tune one of these beasts!

 

[Otaliema]

Done sir. Can I pencil you in for testing?

 

[fordracer]

Ya, go ahead. I think I can dig up the time.
