So much more respect for you guys now, this car is impossible for me to drive fast with Betty Blue's tune, 1:24.091 is the best I could do, when I could finish the race. Not sure how you guys do it!
I feel you, I'm a DS3 user and controlling an MR car that takes some effort but I used Exeter GT tune for the 111R Race car and in my third lap was able to gold it at 1.28 and change.

It was so easy to drive and predictable that I never had a red lap Only took me three laps cause I was babying it to get used to it and I'm pretty sure I can run a 1.27. if I wanted too. Thanks Exeter

Where can this tune be found?
 
Tried to create a tune myself again for this TT and managed to get a 1:22.478 with a DS3, TC and ABS on 1. But this car is so unpredictable to me sometimes, looks like I loose it without any reason.:banghead: I feel I can do better so I'll just keep on trying :cheers:

This is what I have now;

Suspension;
Ride Height 70 / 85 65 / 80
Spring Rate 6.45 / 9.64 10.61
Dampers Comp 5 / 4 5 / 7
Dampers Ext 4 /5 6 / 8
Roll Bars 3 / 3 4 / 4
Camber 0.0 / 0.0
Toe Angle -0.05 / 0.10 -0.12 / -0.10
Brakes 6 / 8 5 / 6

Transmission;
Final gear to the right, speed to the left and then set the gears
1 2.976
2 2.161
3 1.645
4 1.344
5 1.108
FG 3.828

LSD 20 / 25 / 10 9 /20 / 10

Power;
Power 97.4% 100%
Engine Tuning Stage 3
High RPM Turbo Kit

Body;
Downforce 200 / 500
Ballast 145kg @ 10 157kg @ 10

If anybody has more advise or tips to make this car more predictable with what I have until now, please let me know :cheers:

I would take a look at the WRS lotus setups they are very well suited to this track . Mines there too just add weight to 800kg and add turbo and stage 3
My lap looking at my ghost I had a very scrappy first half of the lap and didn't have the best run to the finish line either so there still time for me to find

Before i take your advise -which involves buying the other Lotus, i thought it'd be fair to spend a Little more time with CRANK U 1's setup, seeing its potential, but just not being able to drive it properly with my DS3. But now i'm getting there slowly: 1.21.088 and there's at least half a second more for me in it -so perhaps you should dust off your Wheel to stay ahead...:sly:

I will eventually try your car though cos the way your taking turn 4 (The one where you leave the old/small track) is beyond me. I'm not sure this car can do that...(with me anyway;))

Yeah turn 4 is where get my turn of speed I've been 0.8 up on my ghost loads of times but throw it away on last corner when I get a few hours free il give the TT the attention it deserves but I'm busy with wrs stuff and that takes priority

I'm assuming this is for the '96, right? There are a couple of tunes here w/o the model so maybe the guys postings tunes could put the model year at the start. On the other hand, I used Praiano's tune for the newer Diablo and got a nice time so maybe the tunes are switch-able.
I'll give your tune a shot tomorrow, probably on both cars. For me, the '04 just feels faster and, though my times suck, I got better with it than the '96. The '04 is also tuned by GT so it doesn't need much of anything. I ran better times stock than with the low or high turbo. This is a fun one, though. I hated the Lotuses in GT5 but love them in GT6.
 
Another new day, another new time...1'19.776. At the request of a few members here via pm, I will post my tune a bit later tonight....I just hope I don't get harassed again for doing so otherwise that will be it for me, I just don't need the drama that a certain person feels the need to bestow upon me. :indiff: Anyways, going to get back at it for a little while longer then I'll post up the tune. Peace, and as always, stay fast my friends.

Mitch, PLEASE just delete him, block all communication from him and FORGET ABOUT HIM..... HE IS AN IDIOT!!!!!! 👍

I don't care who he is, if he has a problem why doesn't he come on here and mouth it off, BECAUSE HE IS A GUTLESS 🤬!!!!.

I keep blocking him, but he just keeps making new PSN accounts for the sole reason of harassing me. Sad I know, but he is pretty ruthless in his efforts. At any rate, guess I'll just keep blocking him. Appreciate your concern my friend. Tune will be posted after I get done watching Amish Mafia.
 
Well, persistent internet bullying is just plain pathetic anyway and I am sure he will get his comeuppance sooner or later.
 
Thanks for posting your tune, i'll try it. For now i'm stuck with 1.24 ( no SRF ) i'm hoping reaching a 1.23.9 or even better so i'll beat nowcontrol that is at the top of my friendslist ahahha :dopey:
 
Great event this one, 1:19.360, back in the top 50, for now anyway. used part of cargoratt tune, nice suspension set-up 👍👍
 
Many thanks for the tune shaunm80, I was really struggling with the handling on this one!
Thats quite alright. Im glad that the tune(s) helped you on your way. just out of interest, did you go with the '96 race car or the 111R Race Car '04?

Haha.....I think you will need to start trying a bit harder now as I have just extended that gap by another .5 this afternoon, 1:23.156 and it was bit ooh-errr in places.

:P

hate you , tonight i'll avoid drinking just for beating your time :mad::mad::mad::mad: ( never gonna happen :ouch: )
 
Thanks for posting tunes guys, first attempt with no SRF on my DS3 is a 23:001, should easy be able to do a 22 maybe a 21.

Cheers again.
 
this 1:19.7 lap was a rush :boggled:
after the first 2 splits I was only 0.3 off the leader but managed to completely screw it up in Hawthom and Westfield (5 and 6). Stirling and Clark were ok but the high speed corners 5 and 6 really make a difference....
 
Have just put in another short run and with a little tuning adjustment, I have managed to drop my time a few tenths more.....1:22.878, now i'm off to bed. ;)

Yea, didn't think a 1:21 would be possible but after a few tweaks to cranks tune I've gotten down to a 1:22:351 so with a perfect lap high 21's maybe achievable.

Great cockpit cam in the lotus so really enjoying this TT 👍
