GTP_WRS Week 23 : The Hills Are Alive With the Sound of AMG

[mohitraina91]

What's the deal with PD modelling the dark green patches of lava rocks outside the curbing in T1, T2 and the final turn? I've never seen a car get so out of shape on what appears to be relatively smooth tarmac.

I'm pretty sure it's to do with the fact the Astroturf doesn't have as much grip as the tarmac. Plus when you have rear wheels on different surfaces, and are turning the wheel, the car is going to end up spinning. Especially one with this much power.

I was making a joke about the bumpinesss. It is much bumpier than Mulsanne, and that's saying something.

Perhaps I should some try other tunes in this thread and see what they do.

Still on Matt's-plus-Brandon's tune with Body Rigidity, but Bart told me he liked my original tune, so I may go back and try that some more. But I think Matt's gears are better.

Does rigidity make a difference? Never used it in GT5. Still trying to figure out turn 2 as well... might just try a later turn-in and see if that helps me any.

Body rigidity did for me..

As for turn 2, i brake just after the last white line, down to 2nd then straight line it as much as possible with that annoying bump. Try different techniques and see which is working.

A very deceptive track.
It looks so simple until you try to drive it fast.

Messed up badly in t3

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Had a quick 20 laps this morning before work. Running in the 58.5's at the moment. Still trying to figure out braking points. Will hopefully get some serious laps in tonight

You're not alone there, I lost all my advantage the corner after T2 and had to push the rest of the lap

Always the case when seeing blue sectors

Who's Matt?

Wow, thanks to my joke about not knowing your name I found out how long you've been a member for, I don't know how I never noticed.

Fetchy doesn't read edited posts now, don't worry about multi-posting because of that. We're only advised to wait until the end of a session, but there's leniency.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Thanks, I just figured that out.

[GTPorsche]

Still know I can do better, but another good increase overall today. Tweaked, and still tweaking my setup to get it perfect for my liking. Hoping to get below a 58 at T2 at the end of this.

Had a big lockup going into turn 3 which lost me a good amount of time.

 

[GranTurismo916]

Something to get on the board.

Thanks Brandon, but it won't last. Still early yet and a lot of the aliens have yet to show up. Looks good for now though I guess.

Wanna show us the tune? Might help some people find time

I'm tuning another car right now for a friend of mine on my other account so as soon as I get it done, I'll post the tune. I have like 10 people wanting tunes right now so I'm just a little busy to say the least.

Yea no problem. Just thought it might be helpful for the other members here. I've got my tune, just need to make some small adjustments and it's going live.
