I agree 100% with you. But, to each their own I guess as there are probably some people not interested in improving their skills or otherwise being a purist as some say. Even tho I agree with your statement, if the aids are available to use, its fair game.

đź‘Ť

Btw, great seasonal. Challenging yet doable. See some major AI shenanigans (spinning, sliding and banging walls) as well. Will trying without srf once nurburgring is outta way.

:sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly::sly:

I'm trying your set up but can't get the gear ratios to match the ones that you've listed! Any ideas? Thanks
 
^^I had same prob even though I hit reset default. I messed about with the max speed until all the gears had the range to adjust to. It was 'Max 124' that threw me. It made gear 1 impossible to reach 3.975.

That said, great tune Fruitycakes!!đź‘Ť Thanks a lot! :)

I am left wondering if PD messed up on their own calculations as there's not much room for bringing the pp down - Toscana is a good one to try as I was leading by lap 3, but the other races were nip and tuck until the last lap.


Good seasonal - if it was meant to be difficult:tup:

did u reset to default at the beginning??

I had the same problem. I changed the Max Speed up a couple of clicks to get the same settings. I'm not at the game right now so I can't tell you where the Max Speed setting was.
Great tune!

Fantastic tune there my friend, was beginning to get frustrated...It didn't make it easy, but made the challenge more enjoyable. Thanks again.
 
It's quite funny that only a few weeks after introducing the PDA, PD upgrades the AI drivers so that winning with low PP cars becomes very difficult indeed.

Also, all these latest seasonal events are the same ones that PD removed a while back, just with some minor differences.
FF, FR, 4WD, Japanese 80's, Pickup, Lambos, Classics. We've seen them before!
Expect Kei car, or Ferrari road cars next time.

Yes mate but couldn't get a few of the gears to match. As it is I've got the ratios as close as I can and it's proving to be a big help. Cheers
 
I'm not usually a purist, but I am a little disappointed to see everyone resorting to SRF so quickly. Surely it would be better to attempt to beat the seasonal more genuinely, gain a lot of experience, learn more, enhance your skills and feel extra proud of your achievement. SRF basically turns those Sports Softs into Racing Softs which reduces lap times and effort required significantly.

It seems like PD spent quite some time calculating this seasonal, it's a shame to see most people take the easier option before really trying to do it the intended way first. It is an expert level event in a simulation game after all, and that was PD's intention all along, it's not meant to be easy :(

I think how it went is that most of us tried to do it without the use of assists, myself included. Eventually we all got really annoyed and thought "🤬 it" and turned on some aids. For me, the Gallardo had too much understeer and the Murcielago had too much oversteer. I don't know much about suspension tuning so aids were my only option.

You do not need (unless you feel like) to explain to anyone how you choose to play your racing game. You can choose to use all, some or no assist if that's how you want to play.

When I get frustrated, I just take a break, come back and try harder. There is no way I'm going to use aids. I'm currently getting away from using ABS 1, also. But thats just me and how I like to play the game.
 
Here's a tune for the Gallardo that can gold all events with the pad and without assists other than ABS.

I won all except Nurb without any power upgrades, so Rome should be easy enough with the extra ponies (the other events are pretty easy anyway)... Nurb is still a good challenge with the pad though will probably be easier with a wheel as you'd be able to trail brake much more effectively than with the pad, which would help kill the understeer.

Gearbox is standard. No chassis strengthening.

Trick with the Gallardo is not to try and carry too much entry speed or it will understeer, even with neg front and rear toe... get it turned in off the throttle, coast to the apex and then it will take full gas on the way out. Try not to slide the car too much as SS tyres takes ages to regain grip once you lose it.
 
Update: I've been driving these seasonals with a LP560-4.
All modifications except any power/aero mods and not Ridgity Improvement.
PP: 525 (Power limiter around 80-81%, can't remember exactly.

Still have'nt won all races. Only first 3. Nurburgring best at the moment is 7:05.XXX and 0,9 from 1st, so it's defenetly doable. đź‘Ť

No aids
ABS: 1

It's a really fun seasonal.
 
Whats with the ridiculous glare at Toscana !
I cant see more than 20 feet , Ive never seen anything like it before.
At -.6 EV

I won but only because the whole grid went off at the first corner :lol:

I do recall some glare at Toscana but nothing as bad as what you are getting. It's definitely not the way it's supposed to be as everyone would be complaining about it. Might be your PS playing up, or your TV.

Regarding the discussion re 'no aids', SRF specifically. Some games on the Seasonals do not allow aids while others do. Therefore obviously the makers approve of those who take advantage of them to win. So who are we to then say it's not fair or sporting to use them?
As I said before, many see using the 2J Race car unsporting on the Time Trials but they are allowed so it's tough t...y for those of us without one.

The only way everyone will be satisfied is if PS supplied the car in the races, as they do in Licence tests etc, and have it set up the way THEY want it driven.
Until that time comes I can't see any problem with people using legal aids, or any legal cars to get onto the leader board.
We all know that those who can win without aids are superior drivers, nothing changes that.
 
How do I beat the ringgggg... This is becoming very frustrating... Bought a Miura to no avail.. Still 10 secs off at the end
 
Gold with Aventador on all the races except for Nurburgring
5th go at it and still only can get to 6th place
i need a better set up/ i cant drive to save my life or this seasonal event is impossible!
 
What does it mean move the final gear up??

Another great seasonal, got first place except Nurb.. Nurb is quite challenging for me, 5th is the best i can get.

need more practice :D

The answer, buy a GALLARDO LP 560-4 '08 and use Fruity's tune.
Add Skid Recovery Force and you should kill 'em. I did. Actually my tune is a tad different to Fruity's as I added 3rd Stage Engune Tune before I saw his tune, however it works very well for me.
Now I'm going to try without SRF and see how I go.
 
@ Endless-Wilso

Try setting your EV at +0.4, I know that that lightens the screen and that it seems counter productive but it does take the glare away. I had never darkened the screen as much as you had so when I tried it at your settings the glare was immediately there.

So give that a go,try ~+0.4...:)
 
Sigh. Tried with murcielago and now 3rd at the ring. Pass the 3rd miura before the straights only to be almost overtaken. Needs 4 seconds somewhere. Any tune for murcielago? Tried gallardo tune posted and I spin out before I count to 50.
 
Well I have just completed a winning lap at Toscana in my Gallardo without any SRF, but tuned back up to 550PP. Not a problem. Tad more skill required but not that much. It's faster though without the SRF.

Best lap..1:38.7.......Total time 8:24.6.

Second place was another Gallardo, 19.213 sec's behind, and I took the lead on lap 3 @ 45 sec's into it. With SRF on, 2nd place yesterday was 16 sec's behind.

At 550PP it's $566,800 and exp..62000.

Toscana is my favourite track here and I did plenty of laps yesterday when lowering my PP so I now know it pretty well, I'll try Nurburgring next without SRF which I expect to be more of a challenge.

Are you using Skid Recovery Force? If not definitely do so.

Failing that I'd suggest slowing down a little more before the corners. I presume you use the handbrake for them.

Two tunes for the two different Murcielagos, both Praiano's.

Yes well! Turned off SRF for Nurburgring and haven't won it as yet. After 5 tries I went from 15 sec's behind the leader to 14.2, then 10.4, then 8.7, and finally 7.3.
Came 4th the last 3 times.
Will do some more laps later.
