PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

[mustangxr]

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 SV '15 - 700 PP - Racing Hard Tires - All Tracks - 1.35

FM6 on Le Mans turn the car a bit slow , still laping 4:04 regular , but on any other track using full power , the car is fantastic.

This is a bit confusing because when you click on the title link, it kicks you into the 2011 version. I tried to apply that tune to the 2015 but it did not balance out, needing power loss or weight added. Which is OK, but there is not a surplus of power to start with so...... I dug out my 2011 version and it tuned up perfectly and drove perfectly. A very good tune for the 2011.

New tune and performant 700PP . Last 1.34 settings were lighter but slower. Can't do 3 laps on Le Mans but excelent on SPA or any speed / technical track.

In this setup, the gear settings , the 7th gear only goes up to 1.127 / 333, I can't get to 1.140 / 330 like yours is, exact same setup with yours Praiano3, the gearbox is @ 7,416 like yours so I don't understand why the 7th gear can't be set like yours. Any thoughts ? All the rest of the gears match yours , only the 7th gear is out of whack.

This a generic gearbox anyway , when you want to match any gearbox the most important is to match the each speed whatever ratios.

big thanks maestro 🙏 your suspension tune is perfect whith some tweeks it could be seriously fast.

Ford Focus RS '18 - 600PP - Sport Tires - All Tracks / Tokyo - 1.34​

This car would need some more power to be a top 3 600PP but the handling is fantastic. Sport Hard for Tokyo and Medium tires for Nordschleife or else.

Same pace as Audi R8 EVO , a bit less fast but a few more grip. Safe car but need few more precision in yours inputs to be very fast . It's a pilot car.

This is an excellent tune for this car. I got my first win at the Daytona Gr3 race. Thank you Praiano!🏁🏁🏁

He is not a swap. He is probably the most perfect drive in GT. Though he’s slightly cheaty being a VGT, the Gr1 bit eases the guilt..

 

[praiano63]

I'm on the RX7 SWAP since a few days , the car is just medium performance as 600PP and 700PP.
At 800PP the car is super fast but it's very hard to find a nice safe fast balance. I've found the right setting yesterday night but the racing soft tires are not enough to 4 laps on Sardegna. I'm on a Racing medium setting right now that lap the same 1:35 for 5 laps . Coming soon.

I think this is the fastest 700PP road car in the game.
Like most SWAP Engine , there is a bug on the PP system. Don't install any engine tuning parts , here is the biggest bug. When you add those parts , you'll never able to low the PP again.
For Le Mans , you can do 2 laps around 3:45 at FM6

Tried this tune on the GT86 '16 Limited, which is the same car basically. Had to change the ballast though, lowered it from 200kg to 120 to get a perfect 50:50 distribution otherwise the car had too much inertia on the rear end through fast corners. With this small tweak it's perfect, also running RM tires since the softs last one lap and then are toast, with some management and short shifting the car can do three laps on FM6.

Again thanks for all your work Master!

I prefer to prioritize speed on this car than grip , adding rear diffuser. Diffuser turn the car grippy but still slower to top 10 fasters 700PP , so no interesting.
Adding power is the best option. Crazing top speed anywhere. 6:36 on Nordschleife safely , under 4:00 on Le Mans , but you'll have to short shifting a lot to make 3 laps.
The car is stable now , i had to play with ballast and harder springs , it's a very good pleasant car.

Ok for any track but not very performant , stay behind tops 700PP on Suzuka from about 1 or 2 seconds / laps. At least the car is very drivable , fun to drive and safe.

1- set auto speed at the minimum 280kmh
2-set the final gear to 3.435
3- set each gear ratio beginning from the last gear to first gear in this order.

I used this tune for the 86 GRMN ‘16. Worked great. I did adjust the gearbox for the lower power,(444 hp). Thanks.

Hi Mr. Praiano! [EDIT: YOU HAVE ENOUGH TO DO, DON'T BOTHER ANSWERING MY FULL TEXT, I will probably have even more questions and will use the Tuning Forum for a new thread sometime soon.]
Would you care to give me one or two tips:
I finally want to learn tuning myself. Though that maybe a standard FR car like a BMW M3 '03, a Honda S2000, Mazda Miata or RX7 would be a good start to mess around, learning the different suspension setting.

How should i start my learning journey?
Some things i wrote down out of tuning guides (which i don't understand completely yet)
Is anything from what i noted wrong?

racing tires = stiffer suspension
understeer on corner entry - get stiffer rear anti roll bar and softer front
oversteer out of corner - do the opposite
dampeners work with roll bars and do equal things
keep numbers for dampeners and natural frequencies in front and rear close to each other
rear anti roll bar stiffer than front = oversteer and vice versa
dampeners stiffer = more agile but bumps unsettle the car
Natural frequency + anti roll bar - start stiff and work from there if it's too much
front toe out = better turning radius, less straight line stability
rear toe in = straight line stability + stability accelerating out of corners at cost of straight line speed and tire degredation

more weight = stiffer springs
more weight in front = understeer + tire degredation
more weight in back = oversteer + tire degredation

Differential:
initial torque - stability in corners but more understeer and decreased cornering (hairpins)
set as low as possible and go from there if instability during cornering
acceleration sensitivity: higher = more power oversteer but faster
braking sensitivity: low = smooth without lockup

front height lower than back = decreased rotation
front dampeners stiff = understeer vice versa
back dampeners stiff = oversteer vice versa
anti roll bar front stiff = understeer vice versa
anti roll bar rear stiff = oversteer vice versa

Thank you if you could get the time and fact-check my notes!

Last question: what is a good track to check tunes if i am not very convinced that i will feel every little setting-change (controller driver with automatic transmission here). Please don't say Nordschleife!

Missing information, what tires, rim size? It is not possible with the settings of praiano63 that the power restrictor is on 100?

I find the braking to be totally fine on this car (R34 Nurb '02 800pp swap tune).

Anyone have a tuning setup for the Corvette C7 Gr3 ? Just come back to gt7 and realized that Gr3 tune are not getting 730 anymore

 

[Flamingo]

@praiano63, I am wondering, whether your F1500 tune for Suzuka is also suited to Spa?

I’ve beaten my mate’s fastest Spa lap in the Fap now (Fap vs Fap), but he still holds a 1:51 in the F1500. And it tops MY ranking board.. Closest I’m getting currently is 1:53. I notice the F1500’s top speed is a good 15mph slower than the Fap, but its brakes are much better.

If you think the F1500 could be improved for Spa, let me know and I’ll arrange the necessaries..

I think this is the faster GR3 maxed ,also still easy to drive. Ford GT LM RCII also is very fast but have a difficult torque to lead.

I am hoping the Maestro is OK. Have not heard from him since last Saturday mid day. I think it's important not to over stress the man. Speaking as an eighty year old that has undergone quadruple bypass heart surgery, I know he has already had aphasia, and runs a Pizza business on his own. We need to keep this all in mind.

I’ve been wondering if he’s okay. I know he sometimes dips out for a few days, quite understandably. I did not know he ran a pizza business!

Hello. Thanks , i'm ok , just a lot of work during the students holliday together whit the windy season for the europeans kitesurfers. The most hot working season for pizza . August will be more quiet .
I'm not playing since a week. Aphasia is almost ok , my main problems are reading (still hard for more than 4 lines.) , speaking and writing are 70% back and a very high 5000 hz noise in my left brain zone , 24h per day since 3 years. that start after my stroke in march 2020.
I have to finish 2 cars soon , Mazda RX7 swap and the F50. Coming soon when time.

I'm really glad and relieved now that I read a word from you mr. @praiano63 . Keep the oven hot for pizzas, we can wait here 😁
