^ the first sector of The Ring would be a good Downhill/Uphill depending on the direction you run it or maybe (dont laugh I dont drive the ring much) the sector with the two banked hairpins. It'd make for a good touge track given the width of the track. That or Eiger Nordwand Short course with the 4 hairpins in rapid succession with no major Uphill section(at least no steep hills to climb unless you run it backwards).

Eiger has been used in Season 1.
 
We already did Eiger, and the Nurb a section at a time is not in my interest. If you guys are interested, I could volunteer a track.

The main challenge of the ring is the banked corner sometimes comes package with bumps. That way, a whole new tuning is needed not to tame the corner, but the bumps. I would go with the ring..

P/s: Thanks slender for the great review..
 
I don't plan on switching tracks anytime soon. Though if we were to move to the Nurb, I'd say 1-2 sections max. (I'm thinking the one after the Karussel.)

I'm not saying it's gonna happen though. Depends on the viewers thoughts.
 
I personally like Akina dont get me wrong. I just dont think any of the other tracks would be suited to our needs. In all honesty Akina(as its name implies) was tailor mad for Touge. Now, If we had say a rural road from my area that would be cool. Yeah, Mountain roads have corners and cliffs but our rural roads have Diesels and not just the Big rig ones either, the goofy idiots that think their 6000lbs truck with a 1000lbs engine can handle turns just because it has it's "hybrid repelant" powers. Lmao sometimes those guys are a bigger threat to the road than guys like me out carving the roads(real life) surgically with my little 175hp Nissan D21. Man I wish I had more access to those roads by my Mom's in Cuba, Mo.
 
A full lap at cape ring south :D The track is addicting for hot lapping, 2 hairpins, a bit of of a climb, a variety of medium/high speed corners and the big esses, the 1st and last corner are also good to test the brakes.

No. No. No. That track is just so crap by every measure. :lol:

@Slender, yea, and for the understeer…I just couldn't be bothered to find a way around it so I just slapped on the T300 diff and called it a day. :lol:
 
I've missed all discussions since my last post, but my results might be delayed because my internet is not functioning properly on my laptop .
 
I'm excited to see the results too. Took the ACR for a Spin at Akina and literally took a spin lmao. I got so used to my t200 car that I can just mash out of the corners I forgot I'm not working with 198hp, I have more like 980hp on only slightly better tires.

Also, made a break through in my driving got my T200 car to 3:20.xxx on Akina or nearly 12 total seconds faster than my initial runs with a prelim tune.

May I request you to put the Viper on share, again? I haven't finalized the testings on it yet. :/

I've had a couple of sub 3:05 times at Akina with T300 car I will enter as well a couple of sub 58 sec total times for sectors 1 and 2.

I think I messed up on that part. The sectors 1-2 were actually just sector 3 times. :crazy:
 
Hei
You don't even know which track :lol:

I have a few tunes currently in the works. I also create mountain pass like courses on Toscana. I'm interested in trying out anyone else's custom courses.

Right now, we are currently running SolidSnake's Akina. Try FR him to download it.
 
Or FR big_noobowski924 or ask mat123 if you can FR him, We both have it on share aswell(I got it from Mat and subsequently SVX got it from me)

I was talking to Onboy lol. He didn't know which of my tracks I was volunteering. I'll add you on PSN.
 
Hey Mat if you need another reviewer for T200 I can help out, but I have a weird driving style so my reviews are gonna be literally opposite of everyone else.(note my tunings lol)
