Pirelli 458 Challenge @ Suzuka - Race Complete

[CodeRedR51]

Haven't tested. Probably pretty scary. Racing Hards are pushing it as-is. Car just doesn't have a lot of grip for some reason.

I'm interested in this, currently testing the car, it handles almost like a stock 458, a bit slower, but nice balance with power/weight ratio.

I am a relatively slow driver, only managed 2:09 at Suzuka with the official race settings spec RH tires - offline. I hope I'm not too slow to compete.

Tried CM tires at Monza rain, it clocked quite similar times with a stock 458 with CM, surprising.

I think I was hitting 1:58's in my lounge.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

That was quick time .... I'd just joined online lobby at Suzuka, with tire wear, managed only high 2:09.xxx at 2nd lap. I had stock transmission, max rear downforce, 1232kg, 549pp, 427hp. 1st sector in 56.xxx - 57.xxx sec, 256km/h at main straight before 1st corner. I did not apply any engine tuning or upgrades, just simple power limiter from stock, also stock exhaust.

Just did a test with stock suspension, stock LSD and full DF. I managed a high 2:06 (offline) and i don't understand how it'll be possible for me to go under 2:00 even with LSD/susp tuned...

 

[CodeRedR51]

Maybe it was 2:08.

I have very little short term memory, as you can see.

 

[Litchi]

This is what i thought yeah. But i know your skills and you can easily hit a 2:05 low

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

So 2:06 or low 2:05 with a stock engine, stock transmission, no upgrades, no exhaust ? I could barely hit 260km/h on the main straight
Doing 2:09 run online eats away the tires quickly, need to tune it again ...

 

[CodeRedR51]

No power mods at all.

If it's not on the list in the OP, forget it.

Yup, i'm totally in the specs listed in the OP. so no engine upgrade, no exhaust, no custom tranny, 430hp, etc...
I'm forced to test offline since my move in a new apartment, but i activate tyre/fuel wear and all stuff.
The car is really cool to drive whit these specs. Thanks Jason 👍
I really hope my connection will be back before the deadline btw. Fingers crossed.

I'll spec out a car tonight. 👍

That's what I'm finding out. 2:05's but I have no idea how to set up MR cars.

pretty much the same as FR cept the mass is out back so you worry more about getting weight on the fronts. so basically most of the suspension is the other way round.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Mine is set up stiffer in the rear.

I pretty much put the Camaro tune, eased up on camber/toe, and went backwards on the springs. Got into high 2:04's which is probably still too slow.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Honestly with my "this is a fun speed, don't really need to push it fast than this" testing, I was running high 2:06's. Give or take.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

My best time is mid 2:07's, I certainly hope I could keep up at the race. I want to know with 2:06/ 2:05 time, what is the 1st sector time ? Best I could get was high 55 seconds. I need to know which area of the track I could improve on as I'm going to keep on tuning/practicing.

 

[Litchi]

I hit a low 2:06 yesterday night, just before go to bed.
my tune is closed to stock, only changed this atm (DS3, still offline ):
LSD 10/50/20
RH -15 / -20
ARB: 7 / 4
camber: 3.0 / 3.0
Toe: 0.00 / 0.00
need my internet back to improve my time and this tune

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

My tune is really different Litchi
Downforce : 25
Spring Rate 11/13
LSD 7/9/9
RH -20 / -15
ARB: 3/ 5
camber: 0.5 / 0.5
Toe: -0.05 / -0.05

I am pretty slow at the latter half of the track

 

[Litchi]

Yea i see. I often try to start with stock and then i tune the car step by step. Just wanted to see how goes the car with high camber. Seems strangely good for the tyre wear.
I still have too much understeer in turns exit. maybe neg rear toe will fix it.

 

[m8h3r]

I'm definitely in 👍 👍 👍

Are Matte's allowed?
Scratch that

m8h3r / m8h3r / Purple / Grey

Also the weights "1232KG" If you want to add to the OP 👍

Well that's not good. Surely I've done something wrong. I'm struggling down at the 2.28's

Sectors are:

1st 40.469
2nd 1.10.333
3rd 39.023

 

[CodeRedR51]

Make sure you have the right tires.

 

[m8h3r]

Racing hards X2!!

 

[Litchi]

These split times looks like to come from Spa, right?

 

[CodeRedR51]

I don't usually pay attention to splits, so no idea. But yea, make sure you're on Suzuka.

🤬

That's what happens when you look at the thread on an ipod

 

[Mac K]

Going to work on my car now.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Oh, before I forget...

outlaw4rc/outlaw4rc/Blue/White

Splits:

54.922/45.344/24.488 = 2:04.754


Feels like there's another second to gain.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Before anyone qualifies, I may through a twist into this.
