Put me in for the 2nd race as well!!! (888) Thanks!

Do know what time of day it will be for you? I think it's something along the lines of 02:00 or something. 888 Tuning is in division 2.

 

[J-PaP]

going to try get my tune finished tonight.

Before nd4holdenspd forces others to use my tune, anybody from TLD and 888 wish to volunteer?

btw nd4holden speed. because div1 and div2 are not racing each other why would we limit the total to 12 drivers? Shouldn't it be 6 drivers per tune as only 2 teams race at a time.

That's what I'm doing, just not many people have signed up yet/will sign up.

Mine is already finished. Will post the settings as soon as I have some spare time to get to my PS3.

 

[888 Tuning]

Ah don't sweat it. If push comes to shove I'll be re-allocating drivers myself before the event starts. kosketi81 said he didn't mind where he was at first, so if you don't get any drivers (apart from yourself )then I will probably move him first to your team.

This is one of my Factory sponsored drivers.. cant have him !

Ok guys,

The 888 Tune is all sorted and ready for racing. Those who are racing for 888, (who dont already have the tune) here is the link:

Hey, kosketi was one of the first to say he'd change if it was necessary, and change he might need to do. (Hopefully not though, perhaps I can chase down some drivers?)
Read through your settings, don't think I'm worried. Has anyone realised that 3 of the 4 garages are Australian? Let's go TLD, let's GO! It's the title on the side of the car that makes it go fast- "TLD".

I'd really like to know what lap times other people are getting in these cars and who's tune it is.

Edit: Nearly forgot the point of quoting you, thanks, I put the link in the opening post.

Here is my tune for this event.

 

[J-PaP]

mine will be coming in the morning. tuning a car with 2 hours sleep is a little too hard for me sorry.

Cool, thanks. Link is in the first post now. You might wanna track down your drivers and tell them you have it out and to start getting familiar with it.

No worries mate, and guess what? I found you at least one driver. Dragonistic has happily agreed to drive for you, and judging by his time trials is pretty fast. I'm off to try and entice more drivers into this thing.

Just a reminder to all those reading. You don't have to be fast to enter, and the Tuners won't be upset with you if you're driving slowly on their team. This is all some fun, so please sign up for a garage today and get ready for some of the best racing of your life.

 

[Dragonistic]

Well I'm running 1:55.5 on my third lap round on my own 30 second tune. I don't know what that means really but it seem's ok.

Perhaps they already are.

Cool. I can get a low 1'55 in my tune, but one perfect lap in a race that I was leading, meaning rubber banding was hurting me, I had a low 1'55 which leads me to believe that high 1'54s are possible at least.

Perhaps they already are.

Perhaps they are, what would I know?

 

[Dragonistic]

Short answer: Yes, 1:54.774.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

Short answer: Yes, 1:54.774.

You did that with your tune? See, I told you you were fast, and probably a decent tuner too.

Yea I slapped on a simple kinda of guide set up I stick by and predicted the cars normal handling based on what it is, a big V10 pile of fun I think another 0.3 or so is possible to get out the same tune, but I'm done for now.

Edit: 1:54.365 from the lead of a race. Boost seemed to only effect me by 5 or so mph on the straight (measured from when i hit the line) cornering felt no different. I was so ecstatic at my lap 1) I hit pause and let go of the control forgetting I was in a race (luckily had a big lead). 2) I drifted the remaining lap knowing a good time was now impossible.
That tune I slapped on seems to be very very good for a 30 second mock up.

Also got an Aston into the 1:54s at 1:54.632

Changed set up slightly on my Viper, 1:53.876 3rd lap out.

@ Mindwise, nice to see somebody else practicing at the moment

regards,
galgospeed

So, where are all the Vipers online then? Or is everybody practicing offline? Or not at all?

well at the moment I'm watching Lethal Weapon III, again

Tomorrow evening I'm online again. I'll race according to the schedule made by GTP_Ardius in the other thread

[GTP_JASE72]

I've been online. Got tired of getting smashed around by Evo'S

 

[888 Tuning]

Should be good racing..although the times I have had fed back to me from my test drivers seem to indicate that 888 has the quickest car yet again, you other boys certainly have your work cut out for you.

Figures, if im running high 1:53s on a real mock up tune that i won't be racing, you should be running faster. I'm using my mock up as the bench mark for whatever L-Tune throws my way

[Timppaq]

So what laptimes you are getting out of the official tunes? (online free run)

 

[NLxAROSA]

Yes, would be nice to have a quad-review of the Viper tunes.

 

[Vaxen]

L-Tune Dodge Viper SRT10

Tires have to be S2, I think.

 

[Hyper-Dan]

I have done a 1'56.295 in free run using the 888 tune, I will give the other tunes a go a bit later and report back. Looking foward to this event.

 

[Dragonistic]

I don't know seeing as the tune only just came! But everywhere else i hear 1:55s-1:56s, So either someones hiding fast laps, im a much better driver then i thought (unlikely) im a much better tuner then i thought (also unlikely). Someone out there must be running similar times.

I will post up some better times later, Hey Dragonistic, Ive just spent an hour chasing your ghost round Suzuka east in the Tuned SRT10. managed a very untidy 9TH. You are very fast. 👍

 

[Dragonistic]

L-Tune Dodge Viper SRT10

1) S2 tires are mandatory
2) Aerodynamics can't be tuned on the Viper, how do you have downforce figures?
3) With the tires you have you're above 600PP anyway. But as soon as you enter the event it will force you onto S2s and get you in at 600PP, but all your practice will be wasted as the car will feel completely different if you tuned it on R3/R1 as stated. That could mean your entire car is set up wrong, you need to set up for S2 tires or I as one of your drivers could have a very hard time!

That was my forth lap in the car on that track I got the time and figured I should be very content with rank 4.

 

[Timppaq]

^^ J-pap most probably have forgotten those from the swift tune... I thinks?

Or we just suck.
