Not a huge fan of this car with this much power. Too frustrating.

Platos tune works well with the DS3. cheers for sharing mate! :-)

 

[Carlos Fandango]

MOO!!!

Nothing fancy, just a constant pace.

T1: 22.879
T2: 28.904

Nice Chuk, very nice. Way to make a comeback 👍

490km's and that's pretty much it...with this setup I think I maxed out 2nd and 3rd sector, maybe lost a tiny bit in last corner. Lost a tenth in 1st sector as my best was 22.562 but that sector is more luck then skill so....I'll see as the week goes and maybe someone finds a better setup or comes close to my time so I'll try again then!

See you!

 

[chukabilly]

Chris, you must stay and race! The week is still young, and your efforts are appreciated!!

Thank you, Carlos. I hoped to find the time to drive this week, and was glad to see this combo. I am quite excited with this latest effort, although I left a t1 of .711 on the table. But then again, like I said to Chris, the week is still young! Now I just have to make sure to "MOO" much louder than Red!!!

T1: 22.843
T2: 28.778

MOO!! MOOO!!! MMMOOOO!!!!

Not happy with T2

Zoky any ideas for the middle sector or are your gears great through there

 

[Tesla]

I tried GTP_Plato's tune in automatic for whatever reason, and I was already 4 seconds quicker without any practice with it Thanks for that :tup:

[Jump_Ace]

I found myself finding a ton of time on the back end of the lap (post T2) and trimmed another .2 there. I have no idea how you guys are doing T1 so fast, but I can't wait to get off work and try

Chuck, well played man

[sidplayos2]

Lol how on earth did you find it over at gtsurgeons??!....usualy, rasta, knegas and me are sharing setup for SE TT so we get a good setup real fast but this time for TT13 all credit goes to them as I didn't have time to run both Nurb TT and develop a setup for that Cappuchino!👍

translate.google.com is your friend Although something about a 'teaspoon of vegetables' didn't make sense
Nice splits, at least now we have something to chase. My target will try to be 1sec behind, then I know I'm at my limit.

@Chuck, You shouldn't me mooooing dude, not a good look for an alien
Those are some awesome splits already, going to have a proper go at this, got tied up chasing Zoky and Rasta last night in the TT.

 

[Mr_ANDERSON]

Im finding it really tough to do the double right hander... That corner just eats tenths... can do 22.7 - 8's till the cows come home but very rarely can I do that corner properly, its got some mid corner speed thats just very hard to maintain with the power understeer you get with this car. Sadly oversteer doesnt fix the understeer as the front wheels just understeer and slide off the track with the rear as soon as you power on anyway , loosing you all your momentum and thus time with it.

I can never maintain a constant speed through this area , BUT, I am always consistent with the tyres smoking while trying to get through it asap

 

[GTP_Plato]

Anybody have any recommended gears they can help me with, struggling with mine through T2. Be grateful for any help

 

[the_wilco]

First try. Minimal tuning. Most of T2 is still a mystery.

24.174
30.051

 

[DDiamond]

Changed the tran gear ratios for this run....162=155 top speed, and still using Chris' base settings.

T1 better, T2 slower, T3 big gain.

T1: 24.598
T2: 30.604


ABS now 4.

278HP
491PP

New times:

T1: 24.126
T2: 30.861

Chris' suspension
ABS 4
BB 6/7

I improved in T1 and T3 and overall, but I keep losing in T2. You gear afficianados got any ideas?

I set the tran @ 162, crank back the final to a top speed of 155. Any gear gurus with any suggestions that might retain T1 and T3 and get back my time in T2 that I lost?

TOP SPEED 155
1st 3454
2nd 2399
3rd 1784
4th 1388
5th 1130
6th 0.963
Final 4566 ADJUSTED TO GET 155
TRANS 162 SET

I'm the same Dan.
I'm struggling with the end of T2 and the first corners of T3.
Feels like I'm in the wrong gear, like it is bogged down??
BUT if i shift i redline . . . have played with the gearing a little but only the final drive, not brave enough to play with the other ratios, no idea what i'm doin as far as that goes.

Exactly. Try those gear settings and see what you think. I will give it another try tomorrow. Thinking maybe I might look at Plato's, Carlos and Stotty notations.


Resubmitting for Fetchy:

[Carlos Fandango]

No idea where I'm losing 0.4 in T1, but I'll keep looking

 

[Seken]

Chugging along....

22.725
29.177

Not happy with T2, I think it's my gearing.

 

[Mr_ANDERSON]

Ok, with a mixer of both Plato & Vaga's tune, on my first lap I managed to improve overall by .250

T1: 23.200
T2: 29.053

Jon, I don't think you need to look too far! You rolling as usual! 👍

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Peekaboo... Found a little bit.

23.018
29.203

Had a good last sector as well so was .4 up for the lap.

This time was done with these settings for those that are interested. I did build another car with Plato's set-up just to try it out, but it's too unstable for my liking. Untimately, that might limit my progress but there you go. ABS is 2, BB is 3/9, gearing is stock other than final drive to 4.340. LSD is 5/22/8. DF is 15/8.

After last week, don´t you feel the track is really short?

 

[jbrinkley0826]

T1: 23.135
T2: 29.473

spent about two hours on it this afternoon, tweaking on Plato's setup.... thanks Plato, good place to start from.

 

[Mr_ANDERSON]

WOW, for the first time ever, I cracked the magic 22.xxx in T1. Now all I have to do is work on the double apex section to crack the 28.xxx

New Splits:

T1: 22.965
T2: 29.072

Talk about taking it to the limit, this was WAY to close for comfort

New splits:

22.923

If everything goes well 22.7s are in range for T1. T2 I have no clue. Overall managed to improve by 1.1 seconds, last sector alone was about .5 and I can see another .2 there.

 

[Lyvan]

T1: 22.874
T2: 29.418

Having serious issues for nailing T2...but well, still on it!

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Are you sub-23 second crew for T1 using 5th for turn 1 or 6th?
