It is quite a car. I tried Kevin's tune last night for 30min with the DS3, surpassing 200mi, seeing the power drop to 380hp, and now after an oil change, am up to 399hp, ready for some jumps up the leaderboard. /fingerscrossed
Will be trying Carlos' tune too, unless I see him abandon it and move to Kevin's.

I want some of that stuff that Philip is smoking for the past weeks 
Is that the reason you´ve spent so much time in your garden?

For those that have been using my set-up, here's v1.1 with the changes highlighted. More positive front end and reduce the rotation from the brakes to compensate. Faster through Coca-Cola and more positive through the last section of the track. 2nd or 3rd can be used for turn 1 - 3rd has been a shade faster, but 2nd is more consistent.

I may be in the minority, because I LOVE Fuji
Probably due to tons of GT5P time.
I also love the JGTC series cars.
Have a feeling I'll be putting a lot of time into this one....
First splits, only transmission tuned, bhp is still off by 10 or so.
T1: 21.403
T2: 31.977

Prety sure i will lose the plot with 100R and Coca Cola before the week is out!
I can get 1 right then the other turns to the proverbial!
Hence the reason I havent updated my splits since the first post . . . . 'cause they are BAD!!

Only got 20 minutes in last night so I suspect that there may be a V1.2 in the near future... Between playing around with the suspension, missing my braking point for turn 1 and running wide a few times I didn't get a whole lap together, but when I was on it a couple of times I was two car lengths ahead in the middle of 100R, so I know I'm going in the right direction.Contrary to everyone else it seems, I'm also quite comfortable with the Tilke-sector at the end of the lap...which probably means I'm way off the pace there

OK, just warming the car up this week. Have 396HP ATM, so will need a little more practise laps

120 more miles tonight, 90% of which were using auto-trans (due to needing to keep the sound down), and that was pretty frustrating; wasn't making any forward progress.
The 10% using manual and still using Kevin's tune got me tenth after tenth, and I stopped with these:
20.882
31.620
Would rather use manual, so I'm glad I'm doing better in that mode. 👍
Great combo, Kev, thanks!
EDIT: Oh yeah, I also bumped ABS from 1 to 3, in hopes of getting better turn-in on some of the tight turns after long straights...

Get a good pair of headphones. I got a pair for night when the kids are asleep, but they sound so much better then the crappy speakers on my tv I use them whenever I need to do "serious" driving. Good speakers probably even better except I don't live alone. LOL.
The worst is actually when you are in a race with loud cars. I couldn't use manual until I got the headphones because I couldn't make out the sound of my own gear box. Truth is even with headphones sometimes it's hard in traffic with certain cars.
With all the great reviews for this combo I may toy around with it tomorrow night, but doubt I'll have time for an official submission.

Quick question: are the small green strips on the outside of the rumble strips considered run-offs?
Coming out of turn 12 as shown above, I am over the rumble strip with two on the grass and two on the green strip. Just looking for a clear answer to make sure I have a clean lap.
From the first post:
Race Specifics:
The event MUST be run using your GTP_Tag Account
The use of the clutch that is found on the G25, G27, and other high end racing wheels is strictly prohibited.
Tarmac and Red and White Rumbles are Track
Nothing Else is Track.
Green or Tarmac Run off Areas are NOT Part of the Track

I just wish Sony, in their infinite wisdom and mercy, would allow me to put the main audio through the bluetooth headphones I've already got. The setup I have to use to get bad sound through them is daft and annoying.
If I could afford decent headphones, I could probably get a DFGT (even if I had nowhere to put it) - what a choice.
First 5 laps or so (after grinding and tuning for some break-in):
T1: 21.434
T2: 31.968
Using milross' suspension/EDK gears/ zeroed toe + 15/55/20 LSD so far (DS3 sensitivity 7).
I actually like all the premium JGTC 300s - they've all got personality. This is my favourite, though I might be biased. I really want an FB turbo in the game ;-)

Another short session this morning.......but from the replay I see more time to be dropped....doing it might be my problem forthcoming.
If you can allocate the $$$, these are great. Bought plenty of other sets in the past, but none come close to Turtle Beach. Only thing is no wireless for the PS3, but the quality far makes up for it.

I recently boughed the PX21 they are pretty nice, its confusing because this foto show the PX21 and the price of the DPX21 I asume
. While the PX21 is half the price .Havent took the time to come up with any splits yet
, might give it a shot later.Welcome back Brandon

yeah i have the px21 to play cod with, but they are great for driving.
They do do a wireless one its the px5, thinking about upgrading at some point or maybe get these http://www.astrogaming.co.uk/wireless-systems/a40-wireless-systems/a40-wireless-system-bxr-edition bit pricey though
