Keeping with the Sebring theme, here’s a video on the Porsche 963 power plant.

Now THAT's da HOT (PG rated)'SCHTUFF' rite there SON!

For whoever asked about my M2 Competition tune, it is posted at 550 PP.

It may need a bit more work, but it put up a good fight a couple of times, last night, at 600 PP.

Here’s my tune for the new Laguna Seca TT with the Mustang. Wide body installed, wide 20” centerlocks, front B, side A, custom rear wing High. Other parts installed as shown on the tune sheets. Currently at 1:29.212.

 

[coryclifford]

Ooooh, tuned cars cause I was like WTF?

 

[PapaGnr]

Edit: this car has the Coyote engine swap, but it doesn’t really matter. On my second account I did not have the Coyote engine swap available, and posted a 1:29.374.

Nice times Eric. Well done. I hate to burst a bubble but the Coyote is standard with this Stang.

Burst away, Papa. I guess I just wasted an engine. No big deal, and thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, I wasn't sure so I bought a 2nd Mustang. You have to check @Famine's list to see what goes where. I have a few spare engines kicking around but also looking for the ones that I don't have yet. Blasted "Wheel of Misfortune".

So far I did in 1:28.899 using the Praiano Tune but i think this time will only give me a silver by the end of 2 weeks

 

[coryclifford]

I was in a rented car and saw 1:37 and was like… huh?

Kept going for a few. Pretty good car. Gotta drive it.

 

[nordschleife51]

1:28.880 in primary account and 1:28.679 in second account. It’s a fun and challenging TT.

Well done. I can only manage a 1:32:396. That's on a controller with auto trans. I think that's a huge disadvantage in GT7. Oh well, I'll settle for Bronze.

 

[coryclifford]

Rather make money driving around with the AI cars or you guys.

When watching an older movie (Leave Her to Heaven, a film noir), I saw a wonderful woody wagon!

So much wood! Notice the exhaust pipe extension, too.

This is what my eye sees, not necessarily what the game thinks it produces.

I would have to go through my archives to find a picture I took of Tommy Kendall riding that thing in the Paddock at Watkins Glen during a vintage race weekend in September 2003 (I think). Only problem, I have no idea where I put my archives!

Very nice, Al. Watching the race now, looks like perfect weather. Have fun!

Yes, I saw that. I’m very envious! Have a great time!

Thanks for the Honda. And that’s you, right?

So if I’m up in time, I’ll get the Sunday Buffet rolling. 0830 EST.

I noticed in this image that the camera brightened the shadows. It is lighter than how my eyes perceive them. I am going to have to "look" into this further.

Thanks Master, try the supplement. I’ve been taking them for years. They work great for reading disorganized post online 🤣😂😂

 

[MasterGT]

Interesting. I haven't heard of vitamin D supplements given topically to the eye. I will "look" into that.

They're capsules Master. I take PreserVision AREDS 2. I take 2 capsules twice a day,, have been taking them about a year now. Whether or not they're doing any good,,, the jury is out on that because I know my vision is,, as they used to say at the end of an Elvis show,, "Elvis has left the building".
