Yes but tyres are in perfect shape for another4- 5 laps stintHere are settings and pics from the Mazda LM55
(will post YT here when it processes)
Also uploaded same replay to the GT7 server.

I did have significant rain though....
Here is video...
Yes it's slow but not slow that you cannot win without any pit stops if you have it set like in posts above, it literally is a grab n go grinder car that you can jump in and go without having to worry about weather or fuel, it will do 7 laps on IMs and a full tank at FM6.That LM55 sure is slow when it's detuned.
Totally agree with you on this, in heavy rains on IMs it is very stable, not a problem.So we both agree that LM55gr1 is the safest and coolest car for La Sarthe this period @jrbabbitt ?
@OldandSlow isn't as slow as you think , at FM6 in my average hands can lap close and under 4.15 which means can win hard level hands down.
Also there's always the alternative to go FM1 and change tyres when you wish and kill the competition.
Yeah I am with you on that. If I can 2 laps I can race it. I have used the Veyron and Maverick there getting 2 laps 😁I no longer worrying about winning the race. It's a gimme'. I just like to go as fast as I can in a given car. If I can get 2 laps on fuel, I'm happy.
Am on the same boat with you with the difference that i hate 2 lap cars 🤣 .I no longer worrying about winning the race. It's a gimme'. I just like to go as fast as I can in a given car. If I can get 2 laps on fuel, I'm happy.
I have taken this even one more step, I did a no pit at SPA with this car!LM55 was one project to help new comers to run easy and 100% safe this race and @jrbabbitt took it to another level.
Wow 😱 you son of a gun , congratulations mate ,that was really " something " .I have taken this even one more step, I did a no pit at SPA with this car!

The Natural Frequency also has a big effect on tyre wear.I have found that the three settings in suspension that affect the tyre wear are:
Negative Camber Angle (low numbers are better)
Toe Angle (low numbers are better)
Anti-roll Bar (too high will cause wear)
I admit that you put me in temptation after your great achievement.I have taken this even one more step, I did a no pit at SPA with this car!

QUESTION: Is "taking the scenic route" at the Mulsanne Corner to bypass the traffic too much cheating?
There are NO penalties for driving this line and there are no real discernible time/speed advantage except passing the slower traffic...
I understand that it is 700pp because it was tuned for Le Mans. Do you think it could still pull off the no pit Spa with increased power? Or do you believe any increase in power will have you run out of fuel?I have taken this even one more step, I did a no pit at SPA with this car!

Oh Wow! Even though I am someone who prefers an artistic original livery over all the historically accurate ones, I do love learning of all the history. I love Easter Eggs and I'm always open to hearing or reading about any conspiracy theories.Hello to all who lurk about, I had recently won a Nissan GT-LM Nismo on a 5star ticket, knowing this car is not a great one i still was very curious to see what it can do.
I also have a question about GranTurismo and this car, mainly are they embarrased to have it in the game at all? In 2015 Nissan fielded three of these in the running of the 24 hours of Le Mans, car numbers 21, 22, 23. No. 23 was the one thatJann Mardenborough had started the race with, No. 21 had another GT alumni
Lucas Ordóñez driving in the race also.
If you look close to the livery you get from the dealership you will notice the the drivers names are missing! this is the only real historical car in game that does not have drivers names on it. in pictures below I resorted to getting a correct livery for this car and the other two (I like history in auto racing)

The increase in power not only would cost in fuel but it would also increase in tyre wear, therefore a no pit race could not happen, but if you want to try my settings for this car are a few posts above...I understand that it is 700pp because it was tuned for Le Mans.

Since I didn't see any replies to this it may have gone over some heads.
What he is implying is that Polyphony Digital not putting the names on this car is because maybe it helps someone to connect the dots that it's the vehicle that Jann Mardenborough was driving when he suffered a freak accident that killed a fan. Which I guess one could argue that if it wasn't for GT Academy, maybe Jann Mardenborough never is driving that car that day. So this would be reason for them to be embarrassed about the car being in the game. If they are not embarrassed, then what is the explanation for it being the only real historical car without the names on it?
I'm glad they were not able to keep it out of the movie, even though the timeline of that crash and the whole historical timeline of the movie is all out of whack.
I personally don't fault PD or Jann for that death. Sometimes freak accidents just happen. But very interesting Easter Egg you discovered that I have not heard about anywhere else.
Already have the sheet created identical to how you posted it and was just waiting for your reply to see if I was going to leave it as is. Thx!The increase in power not only would cost in fuel but it would also increase in tyre wear, therefore a no pit race could not happen, but if you want to try my settings for this car are a few posts above...
Thx for the clarification and the plot thickens on why they would not include the names. I love that you found an easter egg that is not about what you see but more importantly what is not there. And I think it's pretty obvious why the car itself is not included. Technically it is talked about in the description of the GT-R Nismo GT3 '18. I'm guessing that incident also contributed to the incorporation of the dry sump oil system which helped with some engine bay placement changes to improve the overall center of gravity and optimization of front and rear weight distribution.It was NOT the vehicle that Jann was driving when he had his accident, what he was driving was a Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3, the car I was talking about was the one he drove in Le Mans which was Nissan GT-LM Nismo. As i had mentioned it was the one year only that Nissan Had these three cars in Le Mans but on further review i find that Team Nissan had run these cars in the FIA WEC season that year only and with their poor performance they withdrew them after the season.
I had made the comment that the drivers names were omitted on the livery probably because they did not even finish Le Mans that year, two of the cars retired due to mechanical failures and the third was NC (not classisfied) because it did not complete enough laps during the race.
From the article : https://www.driving.co.uk/news/interview/jann-mardenborough-nurburgring-crash-gran-turismo-movie/
Mardenborough, 31, was racing a Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 on the Nordschleife section of the 12.9-mile circuit in 2015 when his car became airborne at the notorious Flugplatz, which translates as “airfield” or, more literally, “flying place”, due to the undulation of the track that can result in cars leaving the asphalt. When Mardenborough’s car did so it flipped in the air then crashed through the fencing and into the spectators, one of whom was killed. Several others needed to be hospitalised as a result of their injuries.
