This tune is based on Dragonthing's GT5 tune, below.
My absolute favourite drive in GT5 was the Honda S2000 LM Race Car, once it had this absolutely incredible tune by forum member Dragonthing

I tried my best to transpose his settings for GT6 and - so far - I have managed 6.51.375

Transmission MT
Wheel/Pedals: G27 ( no gear stick shift for this car ) Paddles only.
ABS: 1
TC: 1 ( working on it! lol )
Everything else off, tho steering sensitivity set to : -2
Tho i assume this has no effect on wheels, joypads only ?

(buy engine tune 3 first, then high end turbo. I did leave turbo off for a long time, but the acceleration becomes a chore in 6th gear otherwise )

I'm happy i could get a 6.51 lap out of this on the Nordschleife, but it's my first ever try AND it was with my limited driving skills, so i imagine a proper GT'er could get a much nicer time out of this tune.
Important Note: If anyone finds this tune worthwhile of taking on and improving, i defer all credit to the forum user Dragonthing, as it is based off of his previous tuning for GT5 ( linked in this post for reference, above ). I've merely tried to transpose it for GT6, because i could not find a GT6 tune of this car anywhere.
I find it a really fun drive and the 6.51 was me pushing it. Some real seat-of-the-pants moments, which were exciting and fun, rather than me struggling to keep the car under control. It is an S2000 after all, so is pretty damn stable from the off
I'd love for someone, with enough credits to throw away, to take what i have done and improve it, as it clearly does need it. The transmission and the downforce in particular.
Hope it's passable for a first try !

Tuner Comments:
I decided to get out my happy pink and black S2000 LM racer, and stick a big turbo on it today. The result? An S2000 LM Turbo.
With a few tweaks here and there, and a new gearbox to try and use some of this car's (lack of) torque, this is going to be my new favorite 525-540pp car. It is surprisingly smooth and extremely stable, and the brakes are more than a little insane. I just hope everyone enjoys this car as much as I do.
