Seems I might have messed up the post. Going to try and get fetchy to find my splits.

First full session and really enjoying it using my own tune but gearbox needs some slight adjustment to keep it in power band and rear a bit twitchy mid corner will post up tomorrow

T1 15.867
T2 41.369
T3 1:02.004

The only thing we can add is the LSD and tune whatever is tunable on the car, right?

 

[WillRacer31]

Hmm, that's pretty damn fast for a D2 driver, faster than a D1 Gold. Sure you are using the right settings?

Here are mine, seems I have some catching up to do.

Here's my tune -



My first real tuning effort on GT6. This car responds well to tuning. It only takes very small adjustments to bring it from nervous/twitchy to undriveable.

I've focused on balancing to lift off transition, while allowing the car to rotate. It seems my approach is different from many tunes here. I'm working to only brush the rumbles, if you hit them hard, you are done.

Let me know what you guys think. 👍

I have checked and double checked the settings. It probably looks weird because I didn't put 100% into my registry qual.
I am also trying really hard and that lap time did not come easy you will have to believe me on that one

So, how much time did you spend on the quali?

 

[ItsAllAboutWins]

i got a ps3 and gt6 recently so I'm a noob at the moment :/

Something isn't right o.O

 

[WillRacer31]

So, how much time did you spend on the quali?

honestly can't remember, probably less than an hour on each one.

 

[Jump_Ace]

@WillRacer31 did you check to see if SRF is turned on? I know in the short time I spent on the BMW quali before my wheel imploded I kept forgetting to change the off track grip to real, over and over

So, tell me about your Sim racing or real racing background. There has to be something to this, people don't just step in here and outpace D1G drivers.

Maybe, for S&G, you can just submit your current lap, to see if it passes muster?

 

[WillRacer31]

i see why you are suspicious. My whole gaming childhood was pretty much GT2/GT3/GT4 then i got an xbox and not a ps3 so i missed out on GT5. I have played racing games all my life and i just finished playing iRacing for about 2 years. My inspiration for getting a ps3 and GT6 came from GT academy because being a racing driver has always been what i wanted to do. so I'm gonna try really hard and give this a shot

SRF is off and grip reduction is set to real

So, tell me about your Sim racing or real racing background. There has to be something to this, people don't just step in here and outpace D1G drivers.

Maybe, for S&G, you can just submit your current lap, to see if it passes muster?

I'll send it in
Replay sent and accepted

Re posting my splits because a mistake with T3 dam iPhone and chubby fingers made me look like driving god !!!

T1 15.867
T2 41.369
T3 1:03.004

Now that's corrected I can take my normal D2 position

 

[Doodle]

Fantastic splits so far @WillRacer31 👍

 

[billyjoebobx]

Well, in the spirit of the WRS, you should probably stop working on each combo after less than an hour.

 

[Vagabond]

I've lost the plot I think... as well as any good pace I had in GT5. Already put about 2 hours into this one and just about managed this:

15.662
40.895
1'02.395

Another couple of tenths in sector 2 but it may well take another 2 - 4 hours to find that.




My setup:

Suspension:
90/90
10.00/15.00
3/4
4/5

I'm working to only brush the rumbles, if you hit them hard, you are done.

Nice tune, felt good - but this is the only issue. I used your tune and mine back to back and I was faster with my own - don't know why, because I used the same approach for each.

Will try Chris's tune next and report back.

 

[WillRacer31]

Fantastic splits so far @WillRacer31 👍

cheers, we still have a bunch of time to find I reckon.

Well, in the spirit of the WRS, you should probably stop working on each combo after less than an hour.

haha :L

Chris's is the best tune I've used so far better than mine. Thanks @Vagabond suits me to a tee.

But now I see Will's tune, will need to try that one out as well but Chris your tune has already improved my splits (not the ones on the board) so it won't be long before I improve my LB time.

Still plenty of time to be found. Particularly in T1 and T3. Also I'm finalizing the setup now, and will report back when done. 👍

Some new splits for a .3 gain at the line:

Thanks for all the tunes guys. Got plenty to choose from this week

 

[Doodle]

Fetchy must've gotten confused with my tune. Lemme try again.

15.587
40.487
1'01.771

 

[iainoflo85]

No matter what tune I use I still get stuck behind me ghost - even when I get a 15.8 T1

But I know what tune I like best, it's just me that needs to go faster though

 

[jimipitbull]

16.140
41.324
1'02.690

Lotus Eloose, very fun combo

 

[mcsqueegy]

15.647
40.855
1'02.190

About a tenth at the line. Threw away a .461 T1 by being so surprised, that I forgot to change gears

Seems I'm the only one not using full downforce though...

 

[mistersafeway]

Screwed up T3 after improving T1 and T2, gained some back at the line for 0.159 improvement. Thanks for the tune, Andrew.

15.734
40.950
1'02.567

 

[RacingOtaku86]

I want to participate in this one, but I can't tune anything to save my life. I'm afraid of trying out these setups as they might not match my driving style. Maybe I should sit this one out and leave it to you guys.

 

[mcsqueegy]

Changed a couple more things, not sure how much they helped:

15.563
40.580
1'01.933

About 0.35 at the line, at least I'm getting decent first sectors
