PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

[Habla2k]

You’re selling yourself short if your running a GR3 for 800pp races

Winning with Gr3 or Streetcars is so much more fun than Gr1/2 grinding.

I really like both of it. I like to race stock cars on tokyo to see how well they perform against the AI tuned road cars. But i started to also like using all of the 800pp limit on sardegna to use a nice tunes GT3 or detuned GT2/1. They handle so well and are fast, but the road cars feel more like winning by driving. It's great that you have both options to grind, since only one track the whole time can be really boring.

@malcolm20006
I think the NSX GT500 can be run stock tune with no problem.

Bravo on the 1:41 flats and consistent 1:41s. You've got me covered by almost a second a lap. I can get a similar 1:39.5 on the initial [partial] lap being very aggressive with traffic but usually starting doing 1:42s in clean air and once in a while I see a 1:41 but not consistent like you...

maestro, would you be able to tune the following cars: the honda beat with swapped engine, Lancer evo V, impreza 22b and Lancer evo VI t.m.? thanks

 

[Badfish 2]

Not the point. I have all the old Gr1 and Gr2 cars. Easy win but at least a little challenge from time to time is a good thing. Winning with Gr3 or Streetcars is so much more fun than Gr1/2 grinding. You are selling yorself short on the fun of the game. Just proving a point. ;-)

I can win way easier on Le Mans 700 with street cars than a GR3 or GR4 car

Ferrari 365 GTB4 '71 - 600PP - Sport medium /Hard tires - All Track

New update is a pilot car. Not an very easy car to drive fast , but very performant anywhere. Don't overdrive it and try to find the speed line.
The car is also performant on Tokyo rain with sport hard tires.

Hello mate @praiano63 ,can you pls tune the Nissan GTR Nismo GT3(2018 one), Honda NSX GT500(2016 ver.) and Nissan GTR GT500(2016 ver.), pls? I hope I can do more money grinding by Gr.2 car in Sardegna and I hope I can use the above 2 Gr.2 cars. For the GTR Nismo GT3, I still find a nice setup for me. Thx a lot for your help if you do me a favour, really appreciate that. Thx

Sorry but i only tune news cars or any preference older cars update , for donators actually. Too much cars to update in my garage after 1.23

I just tried the Porsche RSR GR3 can on Sardegna. I got third place because I had a couple mishaps on lap eight on my shot out tires. Granted, I could have won if I raced perfectly, but It’s such a sharp drop off from maxed out Gr3 car to a de-tuned Gr1 car. I finish with those with having lapped most of the pack. If almost lapped the entire pack before and I’m sure better drivers easily have.

What was your pit strategy? Maybe a discussion for another thread, but the Porsche is easily capable of winning, just need to short shift and fuel save and it'll pull 1:40-1:42 laps all race long and win by 8-10 seconds.

Well not with me driving on my PS5 controller. I still would have won without a few spins on the second half of lap 8. The rear tires were almost full red.

One pit stop after lap 8. I was running consistent. 1:44-1:45. Take ten seconds a lap off of that for the Sauber Merc.

Try adjusting your brake balance to the front a notch or two and reduce your rear downforce a little. Should help the rear wear and you'll get a 1-stop out of it with less drama.

I’m runnning -2 brake balance.

So you’re saying that lowering rear downforce helps with rear tire wear? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but I’ve never heard that before. It sounds counter intuitive.

I’m so glad I chose to run Exeter’s version first, saved me a retest of yours! Might be a bit though, weekend coming and then I’m off on vacation next week.

That has been my experience. I don’t find it counter-intuitive, a higher downforce is akin to adding weight on the rear tires, thus increasing wear.

Do you have any advice what 'FM to use on tokyo?

In my mind, I thought of it as more grip = less slippage and therefore less loss of traction/more tire wear.

Nothing special. 1 stop FM1

@praiano63
In your Aventador 15 800pp tune you said, too much gas consumption for sardegna. Same for Aventador 11?

 

[Kleeer78]

I could have the platinium long time ago but I just wanted to have fun with all Praiano’s tunes ( and still have a lot to tune and enjoy ). Just a post to share my joy to play this game and thanks the boss !!!
Thank you again for all your work !!!
Your the real boss here !
Without your tunes, I just have left this game long time ago…
PD should deliver to you a special price for the wonderful energy you deliver to us with your tunes !!!
Love and care to all the players !
A little love for the guy that give us those tunes !!!

Lamborghini Diablo GT '00 -700PP - Racing Hard Tires - All around -1.25
Mythic car . Can lap the same second as any top 700PP , 6:28 on Nordschleife 4:04 Le Mans FM6 . Can be detuned at 600PP sport medium tires , with Sport Hard on Tokyo Rain (I even race there with comfort soft with a best 2:08 lap). Bolid on the road. Keep tight your Hair net on !!!

They also seriously consider to ask to you to tame their cars before the release of their next game

Any update plans for this one boss? Settings didn't really line up for 1.25, I was doing 1:01s lap times and was lapped by Kokubun on lap13/14.

LOL

In my mind, I thought of it as more grip = less slippage and therefore less loss of traction/more tire wear.

Try it out. Only wants a reduction of 20-30kg at the rear (you don't want to lose too much, just enough to pull some aero-induced weight off the rear tyres). The trick is reducing the downforce while retaining traction, so you want to reduce it enough that you're not losing the rear end (destroying tyres) but reducing the effective aero weight (saving tyres).

A quote below regarding aero on F1 cars:

"Increasing the downforce corresponds to increased contact patch surface between the tires and the track. As the contact patch increases the tire wear also increases.

But this in-turn might be equal to the wear in tires of a car running at 5 to 10 kmph faster than the car with high downforce.Hence all the teams try to find the sweetspot for tire degradation,downforce and speed."

Sorry but i only tune news cars or any preference older cars update , for donators actually. Too much cars to update in my garage after 1.23

I'll check soon.

Thx pal, looking forward for an other nice setup! You'd help me a lot to save some cars that I don't like or even I won't drive!

 

[Habla2k]

Can be detuned at 600PP sport medium tires , with Sport Hard on Tokyo Rain (I even race there with comfort softwith a best 2:08 lap)

So cool you updated this. What else you do for 600pp? i guess changing to SH is not enough.

Edit: So i changed to SH, didn't do any weight reduction and did some ECU and Power adjustments for 600pp. Could win by 18s with one stop. Pretty awesome, as always.

Hi Praiano, tested this morning at Le Mans, it is incredibly fast! Last lap in FM1, dispatched in 3:54.xxx, a real monster!😍

 

[Habla2k]

Lamborghini Veneno '14 - 700PP - Racing Hard Tires - Nordschleife

Tried this at 800pp fully tuned, a real beast. But like Aventador, too much gas consumption for Sardegna. Guess aside from Huracan, no Lambo for endurance races.

I did it basing me on the Lambo Diablo livery. It's on share on my profile.
I did a performant tune yesterday but it's hard to drive , more than 500HP on 1000kg car , on a weird suspension and very weaks brakes. A top of this a very peaky engine with the power coming all together. 😲 Not so easy to manage.
I'll try to find a way till tonight , if i'll not be able to find a cure , i'll publish the car the way it is now.

Honda Beat '91 - 537PP - Sport Soft - All Track - Swap - 1.39
​

Set for Tokyo Rain event but you can use with Racing tires anywhere else . Don't overdrive the car , it's a bit technical to lead , if you go over the grip you'll lose it.
