I wonder which Skyline will be best for this one; maybe one of the V Specs?

 

[Doodle]

Oh yeah!!!! Autumn Ring!!!

 

[JogoAsobi]

Typing up the list of eligible cars now.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Oh yeah!!!! Autumn Ring!!!

I knew you'd be all over this one Andrew, you little A.R. maniac.

Also, even though I am pretty intensely involved in doing the Academy events, I still will post tunes for these Seasonal events in order to hopefully help whoever may need a tune to try. Good luck everyone.....and @Dalone , your quest continues.

 

[Doodle]

It gets even better, SRF forced off!

I wonder which Skyline will be best for this one; maybe one of the V Specs?

Back in GT5, there was a Skyline TT at Deep Forest and the M-Spec Nür '02 came up on top. Not sure if it will be the top dog this time round.

 

[JogoAsobi]

For some reason, No Nitrous is not mentioned in this Seasonal's Entry Requirements.
If someone can verify that for me, I will update the OP, no access to my PS3 now.

Got a 1:28.652 with this setup, what needs fixing?

Used a midnight purple 3 r34

 

[Nish]

I'd 0 out the camber, raise the front end to about 110, stiffen the rear to maybe 5.00, try damper around 2 for compression / 3 for extension, rear brake balance, 45 / 55 split or 50 / 50 torque. My LSD is set at 5/8, 10/11, and 7/8. I'm currently 4th with a 1:20.9xx and this isn't my tune as I'm signed out. Hope it helps a bit.

Edit : Remember to short shift with this car as you can use that torque down low without losing out on much power.

I put dampers ext and comp at 2 same with the anti roll bars at 2 and put front toe at -.13, and shortened the gears to 155mph. Got a 1:26.582.

 

[Nish]

I know there will be a few better tuners that will help you out and I'm happy to see your 2 second leap. I'm headed off, early morning ahead of me. Good luck .

Weight reduction stage 3 first @Gotbeefboy564, then add the power till PP limit.
Got it on the 2nd lap.

 

[shaunm80]

Currently on a 1.25.004 with a V-Spec (R34) '99. Fine tuning now to get a guaranteed gold tune for anyone using DS3. This course is fun with a Skyline.

Nitro is allowed!

Nitro is allowed!

Then we have yeat another parameter to play with: where is the nitro best used?

 

[Johnnypenso]

In another game.

 

[et_]

In another game.

but nitro was allowed?

 

[German_V8 Fan]

I dont like the fact nitro is available. I wonder how big its influence on lap times really is. Autumn Ring has not that many straights for high speed...

 

[Johnnypenso]

but nitro was allowed?

Joke. Where is nitro best used?..in another game.

 

[Nish]

The difference is huge with nitro. I ran with the controller after finding out 20 mins ago. Improved my time by .9 within 10 minutes.

With a flat floor on my R33 I beat my original 25th position time easily with nitro, then I switched back to my R34.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

I have to agree about the nitro thing. In my opinion and from my experience, it is best used in drag racing and really has no place in circuit racing. I've always seen nitro being used on the drag strip and not so much, if at all, in circuit racing. I think Kaz only put it in the game for those that partake in drag racing activities....just my thoughts and opinion on the matter.

@Nish I really didn't think nitro would have been so advantageous on circuits, especially on a twisty track like Autumn Ring...guess I was wrong. Who knew?....not me.

 

[Downhill Dino]

I finally get to use my R32 in a seasonal! I'm so excited.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Got my Wangan Midnight Tomoya ACE32R replica down tuned to PP limit, easy 1:23s on 1st lap No nitro of course

 

[Doodle]

I loved nitro in GT4. That was a big part of my childhood. It will definitely bring a different element to the event.

 

[Monatsende]

OMG, when I`m positioned #74 right now this event must be easy like...

 

[et_]

I agree nitro has nothing to do on a TT, but if it is allowed, it is of outermost importance you use it on the right part of the track.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

I loved nitro in GT4. That was a big part of my childhood. It will definitely bring a different element to the event.

Yea, this whole nitro thing is really going to throw me off on this one as I have no experience using it and really don't even know how to go about using it on a circuit course. In all honesty, I'm not real happy about it even being an option and really don't think it should be. I could be wrong, but I have never watched a circuit race where the participants were using nitro. About as silly of an option as SRF if you really want my opinion.....just another arcadey type option. (in regards to circuit racing)

 

[Nish]

Maybe it's allowed here to be used like scramble boost is used on a lot of boost controllers that are often put in many GTR's?



I've only used nitrous on the single player Route X race before now and it does add a little extra fun for me. Still won't use it online but I think it will add a new variable to this TT.

If anything I'm happy PD is mixing up the TT's a bit. The last few weeks have been the best since they started IMO.

Ok, I think I have it at stage one now.
