Just kidding, here it is:

F - 3.250 (altered by me for Monza, his was on Silverstone)

10/40/5

DF 1500/1900 (this also needs adjusting for Monza)
 
Out with the new, in with the old.

Setup as above except downforce 1500/1600.

Was as aggressive as I had time for now.

23.800
49.650
 
At least it isn't at Brands Hatch '80s :nervous:

Me @ Monza: This car is insane(ly awesome)!

Me @ Brands Hatch: This car is the DEVIL! :lol:

Our Nursery is just about all put together now, so I'm hoing to have some race time this week.

Not a big fan of these high downforce monsters but willing to give it a try.
Oh wait 3.000.000 credits? I can win this car by completing the Senna challenge, right?

Yeah, you win all 3 cars and racing suits through the challenges. The cars (aside from the kart) are on racing softs though so expect your laps to be faster there than WRS.

yes. You have to do all 3 to win the car. You'll also get some nice pocket change
 
I didn't read anything and bought all the cars first >_< But I essentially broke even with the winnings and selling the cars back 👍

Fun combo, Lucas! First few laps, with Mr Safeway's tune (which feels pretty good, but I'll be trying other ones also).

23,784
48,884
 
Right, after letting myself down recently, the week just gone included, I'm going to put my all into this one.
Looking forward to testing out the tunes, will start with @mistersafeways as mainly just want to get the gearing sorted.
Will try the others and probably end up tinkering myself aswell, so thanks to all those that have posted tunes so far.
Good luck all, I'm going to really go for promo to div 2 now, last week hurt at Silverstone.
:gtpflag:

Bart's tune now. And I keep messing up T3...
 
Had a look at Tidgney's video for some inspiration...

22,900
48,066

Done for the night.

Why pray tell do you need to resort to hoing just to race.:scared:

Sorry, times must be tough, but I won't judge. :dopey:

Life has been busy lately, I've been away from the WRS for too long, and this combo is Mega awesome. Too bad it's the same week as the GTA final round, I would really love to have a go at this one. :crazy:
I plan to rejoin Y'all in July for some good old WRS fun, until then keep on keepin' on. :gtpflag:
 
Well, I managed to beat my lap by 5 tenths, and I somehow managed to get a dirty lap 1.2 sec faster than that... Fastest clean S1 was a 22.1, but I messed the lap up on the next corner. I'll be staying here since I suck at Spa and can't control the GT-R. :c

22.550
46.650
 
Has anyone noticed any off-throttle weirdness with this car? I just tried it at Motegi and Indy, and whenever I let off the throttle, it would keep the turbo hammering away and prevent the car from actually turning with no throttle applied. Seems to only happen at high speeds, so maybe it hasn't been noticed at Monza. It's almost like GT5's open wheel cars having an off-throttle boost, but this time it's just the turbos kicking in.

It's the same with the X2014 Standard and Fan cars, as well as the Formula Gran Turismo.

Typos ftw. This is the only hoing I've been doing lately and it ain't for money.

I can understand having it for the Red Bull cars, but the FGT didn't originally have that feature, and the 97T definitely didn't have it.

Replicating an off-throttle blown diffuser on cars that don't have them is silly. Hurts the drive-ability as well.
 
My ratio will stink come the end of the week but this is really fun so I'm going to try my best. The car & new layout take a lot of getting used to! Thanks @PASM for the tune and @Gravitron for sharing ;)

22.600
47.400

Nice round numbers :P
