Mercedes-Benz CLK-LM Race Car '98 - Spa Endurance Edition

[wildheart90]

OK so here is a tune I made for an endurance race on the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit. Naturally, there were a few rules for this race which are as follows:

- GT class
- 670pp
- Racing Medium Tyres
- No aids (except ABS)
- 90 minute races (in this case, 42 laps)

I tuned my car with a controller, whereas most of my opponents were far more experienced and using wheels, so I am quite pleased to post times close to what they were doing.

I managed to Qualify 3rd on the grid, and in the race I scored my first ever podium position with 3rd place. Although there weren't many players for this race, I was able to keep much better pace with the usual front runners which is why I am so pleased with this tune.

Tyre wear wasn't the best, I was only able to do 7 lap stints, while everyone else could get to 10 laps.

My qualifying style lap on a "full tank" was 2:05.274, which only ended up being about half a second on the best lap set by anyone else, if you try this tune out let me know what time you get .

Toe and Camber should be close to zero to reduce tire wear.

Ok thanks, I'll keep that in mind for the next race.
