select "speed test' then select your connection type, mine is "cable", you are looking for A+ connection

I dont know who did it, but is really cool (you can only see this clicking in the link bellow. For rights reason I did not list in my page)

Ohh HAELL YEAH BRUTHA! That was too cool! It took alot of effort on whomever put it togethers part BUT look at the cool result. One day perhaps GT7 fans will learn who did it and we can properly thank them 👍 👍

A+ it is. I also tried on the PS5. It did not give a result because browser not 'capable of upload' but it ran the test and the bufferbloat dial did as well as my PC so its in the same ballpark.

Hi Al - Great to see another Geezer hosting - I know you'll do a great job Al. Are you going to allow tuning or will tuning be prohibited?

 

[viper al]

Yes Pete sorry I didn’t mention that turning is allowed

 

[Daduce1947]

Gents, 'IF' you can be sure to log in a bit early,, there's an update that takes awhile. I'm letting it go thru the process as I type so don't know how long it takes but it's more than 10 minutes. 10 minutes in and I'm at 30% copy,,,,

Now gotta do all the swaps & see where all the special parts go. They should of made those parts generic rather than vehicle specific.

 

[SteveBeech12]

My Dark Plates have arrived

 

[Daduce1947]

If you don’t say holy poop at least once…

They said 'EXQUISITE' when defining this amazing car,, I cannot think of a more appropriate statement that that. Wow!

 

[MasterGT]

Thank you Geezers for giving me an opportunity to host, I hope you guys like the races I set up .

Well done, Al. I learn from these events, too, ya know.

 

[coryclifford]

I stopped watching this guy because it’s unobtainable stuff. But this one, just even the cars in the lot are crazy.

 

[USNSCPO]

Thanks, Steve.

Tks, fixed

 

[nordschleife51]

Here’s my setup for the ‘13 Viper GTS. Front splitter and custom rear wing installed, plus other parts as shown. Wider wheels also installed.

 

[MasterGT]

So, after all of the complaints about using the MAZDA Roadster Touring Car (550PP), I did a little experiment, on Tsukuba, 10 laps on each tire.

Sport Hard: 1'03.70
Sport Medium: 1'02.50
Sport Soft: 1'01.275

Sport H/M: 1'02.90
Sport M/S: 1'01.57

The handling difference using a step down on the front tamed the car quite a bit, so that is the solution for controlling stock cars and, probably, tuned cars, too. While the times are similar, there was nothing difficult with using the H/M combination. Both split combinations should be acceptable to all Geezers.

 

[SteveBeech12]

From what I understand if a car understeers you put grippier tyres on the front and for oversteer you put them on the rear. We will just have to have tyre wear off where we use cars like that as on a pit stop you cannot select different tyres at each axle.

As a matter of interest Mastr did you notice what tyre/axle the HUD displayed when you were using 2 compounds?

PS Just had a look and it shows both.

 

[SteveBeech12]

Here’s my setup for the ‘13 Viper GTS.

Did not work for me, PP 714.64. What are the exact body parts you used Eric? A/B? Side? Rear? Custom, Low/Med/High? I am tring to match your numbers on Acceleration, Stability and Rotational G

I also notice that, and I have seen this with Praiano's tunes as well, that the description of some items is different. For instance 'Racing Air Filter' shows for me as only 'Racing'?

PS. Having looked a bit closer at this I reckon there is more than 1 version of the software. For instance, I have a racing 'Silencer' whereas you have a racing 'Muffler' So the software for US and the EU is not the same.

Which brings into question, what else is different?

 

[nordschleife51]

Wheels: Enkei RA036, +1 diameter, wide width, wide offset.
Front: type B
Side: standard
Rear: standard
Wing: custom, medium height, type 07 end plate.
