Please note that this tune is built for Cape Ring Inside and similar such tracks.

This car is heaps of fun to drive, and is fairly quick round Cape Ring Inside. I'm quite happy with my lap time of 54:878, especially considering it's only 500PP and quite inexpensive to boot.

Thanks very much for checking out my post, and please give me feedback on how you like/dislike the car and anything I can do to improve! Oh and please request whatever you want me to have a go at, it'll be fun :)

Cool, i have a Bathurst R waiting in my garage. I'll give this a try tomorrow.

awesome! i'm not sure how useful this tune will be to most since it's quite a specific model of RX-7, but props to you for having one and trying it!
