The Pescarolo C60 is a Peugeot engined car, is this the same one that is on this thread? The all green with blue? If so that thing oversteers with racing hards, I'll try racing mediums, but at least in stock trim the thing is so loose, it spins out on turn in.
 
Got the Gt-one tune done yet? I really am wondering what you have for that one. Post it up soon please!! I really like your tunes (especially the Bently Speed 8 and R8 tune).
 
Decided to bump this thread- I can not for the love of me figure out how to keep the BMW V12 LMR stable at lower speeds and corner exit. Maybe I should bump up the TC, I'm running it at 1, sometimes 2 but it doesn't fix it.
 
On your minolta tune, you forgot a high rpm turbo, it should have in excess of 1000 hp, mine currently has 1035hp

Being stable at lower speeds is mostly due to LSD. Initial torque and acceleration, try lowering these with 3 degrees camber front and 2 rear. More downforce helps given the track. Also 5 front and 6 rear brake balance (for better turn in) and ABS set to 1. Traction set to 5 and no stm. Also manual, takes practice buts cuts seconds off lap times.
 
Hey man loved your tune for audi r8, i see that you missing some of the cars which i happen to have, lemme know which ones you still don't have and i could probably let ya use it for couple days :D

Edit:
tbh, for audi r8 you don't really need tcs, throttle control > tcs lololol. fyi i'm playing with the ps3 controller, so i don't see how tcs is needed :S
 
Just used your Minolta tune to hit Le Sarthe, cheers.

I'm not sure on the MPH so I set mine at 400km/h which had me just hitting 370km/h before braking into the second chicane.

Using ABS 1, no TCS or any other aid on Race Hards I got a time of 3:27.416
No mods 930bhp.
 
Did you ever get this tune finished for the Audi R8 Race Car '01. Been watching and waiting

Have you got a Chaparral 2j yet*?

Pete

*I was going to give you one, along with a Toyota GT-ONE and a Lexus IS F Racing Concept to see what your Tune would look like, but I understand if you don't want them. I'll try somebody else. np
