GT Academy Prize Car Seasonal

[Kwicko]

I'm talking about all four tires being off the track/racing surface. That should clearly be penalized. I run according to the WRS rules: At least 2 tires must be kept on the track/racing surface at all times.

That's how I view it as well. As long as 2 tires are on the track, it's all just racing.

That's how I like to run too. Just used to running 2 on track from doing TT competitions. Basically for my own discipline.

D'you wanna run that one by Seb Vettel after yesterday?

Vettel got penalised and ended up 5th for dropping all four wheels off the track, kinda supports KB18's view

I know that. Hence my chirp. His closest wheels were at least a metre outside of the white lines & he put the power down early, thus gaining an advantage. Yet he claimed innocence. Yeah right!

 

[PATRICK STARR]

I wish PD would make tt easier for us begineers the best I can do is 1.45.1 on Toscana. Im running sports manifold and ecu around 247hp. How would weight reduction work with power limiter. Any ideas please.

Vettal should have conseded the place and finished 3rd the numpty

 

[Gejabo]

Finally golded the Time trial completely stock.
In the race I'm second.

But there is still a few days to improve.

Anyone start tuning the R32 GT-R V-spec II yet? I've been racing it in the 4WD seasonal. Doing some suspension tuning and it's quite fun. I'm ready for the next round!

Gift Car: Nissan SKYLINE GT-R V・spec II (GT Academy) '94

 

[Hachiroku Lover]

...my bad. I DID received it. Anyways, I think in this one I will run stock. I haven't been able to beat the challenges with any car stock yet, but this one I think it's possible, great car. Altough I don't believe that the CPU runs with them stock, can someone confirm this?

Anyone got a good tune for the S15 yet? I came third with basic tuning so I just need her a little better.

There is a good Sylvia setup here at RKM. Just omit the permanent mods to qualify for the TT, or not alter the car. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=136731

 

[Rob192005]

I already gave her weight reduction..is there no way back from that?:S

You could decrease power and add weight. I try to never add weight. But, I'm not a "tuner".

 

[Rob192005]

Yeah,I had to downscale to like 208hp. And yeah I only know basic tuning,I'll try and work with that though,thanks.

You're welcome Rob! It's a pity Kaz won't lee us purchase the cars again from a GT Academy dealership

 

[Rob192005]

Amen,I guess it'd take the gloss off the prizes though for those that earned them though.

I used a small turbo. But main thing was a custom transmission and adjusting the gearing for trial mountain. Stock they're too long

 

[Rob192005]

I fully tuned it,just trying to configure it now.

Finally done Toscana TT 1.43.8xx with weight reduction and 209hp. Still struggled.

The race was done 1st time and I got gold in the TT after 4 or 5 laps using the the stock car, I found it pretty easy but still enjoyed it.

 

[elric718]

TT is tricky for me with the Silvia. Any good tunes for the tranny, or what is the most important thing to tune?

I got Silver by adding a mid-turbo and reducing HP, but I would like to gold without having to reduce engine power that much and using good settings.

[elric718]

This was good. Thanks a lot! I added the air filter and only got to run 1 lap before going to work. Very sloppy and was only .2 off the gold, so I'm sure I will run a nice time when I am awake and warmed up.

The cars are coming faster than the seasonals!

I'm thankful to PD for adding these short seasonals for the academy cars. I wanted to win them just to have them. I had no excitement about actually using them,but now they have a purpose!
