Revert the transmission back to stock and then reinstall fully custom. Right now that's the only way to reset a gearbox until a reset to default button returns.
Problem: It's a race car.
Why didn't PD put a reset button like in GT5?

Move the top speed slider up and down, it will put back the stock ratios.Praiano, I have a trouble with the gears and I want to reset them. How do you do that?
Of course i'll do it, but it have some huge concurence...... like KTM ?!! I'll ,just don't know when.some awesome tunes already my man praiano but still no Catherham! can you be the first to do a GT6 tune?
Yes, it's 44KG back, pos +50. 40%-60% repartition. This is the way i like to driv it, it's not so radical but you need smooth input and you can go very fast like this when you begin to understand how it work. No late braking, slow in fast out, place the car.... But if you feel good the other way and if it works, why not.Hello Mr Praiano,
Thank you for sharing your tunes. I was happy to see you tuned a Lambo GT as I love this car.
I have a question though, about the ballast position. Is it really at 50? Because I tried to put it at -50 and the car feels perfectly balanced, at 50 it oversteers a lot more. So I'm just wondering if it's a little mistake. And it would explain why some people have issues with this car.
Anyway, thanks to you I'm really enjoying the car now.
How to set your gearbox in GT6
I’ll try to stay as clear as possible.
This method fit to most of the cars in GT6.
The goal is to spread the gears at the best place ,where the max power is.
I’ll consider also that the car need to perform a good standing start, classic situation in an online race.
I’m going to take the Nurb Nordschleife for example with my:
BMW M3 CSL // 550PP // SPORT MEDIUM 499 HP at 8700 RPM
Nordschleife is the place where a good launch is very important.
So ,you have a car with a given power ,with a certain kind of tires.
The first thing to do is go back at the beginning of the straight , 4 km back, to check the top speed you need.
To this speed you’ll have to add 10 kmh in case of draft but in this case you'll see that there is some room till red zone.
How to set the max speed if the GT6 setting panel don’t show this top speed ??
Go on track to check it.
After the test you saw that you reach 320 kmh.
Back to our “ring” gearbox.
We will talk about % on the setting bar.1- Move your final gear to the right , around 75% of the setting bar in this case 4.000.
Do like this:
2- Set the top speed slider to the minimum value, lower top speed available ,here 200 KMH.
3-Set the last gear ratio full right on the setting bar = 100%
4-Move again your final gear to an aproximative low value, between 0% and 20% is ok. Here we need 2.050 to reach the 320 KMH at 8700 RPM +-
Now check your top speed on the straight or enter the value on the excel sheet to see if your top speed is OK. Here just after the bridge end of straight.
OK, now you have set the last gear we have a 6th gear ratio at 100%, full right on the panel, and your final gear to reach the speed you need on this track.
For the other gears it’s very simple.
You need to perform a good standing start to jump in front of the race.
Go on track again, check your start.
-Wheels must not spin too much , you loose grip like this and stay behind.
-The car must not squat too ,falling engine RPM loosing power and staying planted on the starting line.
To set the perfect launch after test it, you set your 1st gear to 40% of the setting bar (39% exactly in this case 4.550).
The only thing you need to do now is to spread visually the 2,3,4,5th gears between the 1st and last 6th.
It will give:
1st = 40%
2d = 55%
3rd = 70%
4th = 85%
5th = 90%
6th = 100%To do this visually is not easy because PD take out the graduations on the setting bar that we had in GT5.
So,to be exact in your ratios calculation, you can use our excel sheet to calculate it. My friend Sam did a good job ,just play with it together with your setting panel to enter the datas and you’ll understand it in a few minutes of practice.Here is the link to google doc sheet
GT6 gearbox calculation sheet
Just follow the tips, enter the red value only.
To calculate by approximation the tires perimeter ,go on route 10 and check your exact speed in any gear at a given RPM.
Just have to enter a perimeter value in red till you match with the speed you’ve seen on track.
295 KMH in 5th gear at stabilized 9000 RPM in this case.
After a few times ,you'll be able to build a custom gearbox for any car any track in a few minutes. Easy.
Have a good drive.

Muchos gracias amigo!! 👍Method updated
Quick question Mr P. I liked this car lots in your first tune, is this new version any better or just an easier drive?New tune updated with a brand new tune sheet GT6. Made by my good friend Daisey👍
100% better in my opinion, i did it again because i wasn't totally happy with the first one. For my taste now , i spot on the right balance this time. I love it, a M3 CSL need a solid great tune always.Quick question Mr P. I liked this car lots in your first tune, is this new version any better or just an easier drive?
Thanks Praiano, I will give the new weapon a run now! Can I please make a gentle suggestion that would help me a great deal? I do not have the money for an iPad - like you, I have mouths to feed! So, after saving them, I print out your tunes, keep them in a folder and use them like that. So my printer does not run out of ink colour overnight with your blue background - I use black and white printing. I greatly admire the beautiful effort Daissey has put into the new sheet - but when I print it out in black and white the white writing is almost impossible to read - you see the problem? If you could just adjust the writing to black, it would be perfect. Thank you once more.100% better in my opinion, i did it again because i wasn't totally happy with the first one.

Thank you very much, will give it a shot.in regards to printing. i am using windows. here is how to change the background.
right click on the form and choose format picture. then recolor. then choose a lite shade which will aid you .
hope this helps.
I'll check with my friend Daisey who did the sheet, what he can do for you.Thanks Praiano, I will give the new weapon a run now! Can I please make a gentle suggestion that would help me a great deal?

Thanks for the info, corrected.Just wanted to say it's not a Ferrari GTO from '04 that is in the tune list, should be '84 am I correct?
Anyway here she is, just bought it.

I fully agree with you there, the F50 is an insane icon that is missing in the game. Same as the Testarossa and F355. And Porsche of course like the Panamera and the Cayenne. And BMW misses an X6,X5,M6 and 7 series. And a 2000CS and 635i and more..

Hello.Hey Praiano this is a great thread, thanks for sharing this information with the forum! But I'm a little confused on the gear tuning.
What I understood is this:
1. Figure out top speed for given track
2. Figure out peak HP at whatever RPM it is from the settings graph.
3. Go back on the track and figure out the speed at that RPM in 1st and your last gear.
But now I'm confused on how you get the % and numbers for the gear ratios. How did you know what to put for the final gear? How come you used 75%? Same for 1st and 6th gear, how did you know what % to use? Did you take Speed/RPM and use that as a percentage? It'd be great if you or somebody else could clarify this for me because I'd love to know how to properly tune my transmission! Thanks in advance
This is the best i can do, i've raised the position of the ballast in front till the car OK, together with others exteme settings. Before this, it was not good at all. This tune is just a band aid for a broken car not well builded by PD. Because i can't believe a car like this drive so bad in the real life.Hey Praiano I really enjoyed your Z4 GT3, but something's a bit off with the Huayra. It's very stable now, which is good, but it seems to suffer horrible understeer? I'm not sure if I'm driving it wrong or I've messed up somewhere. I just can't get around any of the corners at Grand Valley.
Thank you for being so considerate. 👍Hi Mercury,
Definately appreciate the feedback and although I believe it is better to not print at all, I also believe we can save expensive ink where we can. Price of ink in Australia is crazy thats for sure!!! I will be updating the theme hopefully by friday and getting the new sheet out by the weekend.
Cheers and thanks again
Daisey

NFS2 is where i fell in love with the F50 and F355.... but for some reason they never were the idolised models :S
Hello , yes Sam, because there was no triple on the old tune sheet, when pass the first tunes back to the new one, it will be corrected before publishing.
