PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

[DaeWon73]

It happen again for the 2d time , a weird bug on my Fanatec DD pro. On le Mans Nations race today , just out the pit stop end lap 5 , i've had a partial lost of grip , like i was driving on a wet track . Losing around 4 seconds / lap during 3 laps. Everything coming back to normal for lap 9 and 10. Weird. I hope they will do something to correct this soon.

EDIT: I've connected my wheel to my PC with the wheel in PC mode and my wheel wasn't updated ... I'll check tomorrow if there is some changes.

if all else fails just hit it with a hammer 🤣

Don't do me like that man I'm auto only

It's not Praiano that do you like that, it's the game. I held out for way too long. It only takes 1-2 days of training yourself to switch. You will be happy you made the switch as it opens up many more options for cars and a much more fuel-saving strategy that is impossible with Auto Trans. You just need to figure out the controller setup that works for you. For me, it was X to upshift and [] to downshift. I use motion steering and keep the Gas and Brake on the triggers.

It's my number 1 car 550PP for the moment. I didn't use racing brakes or pads. Just chek your braking point , brake just a few earlier. Standard brakes are still very good and you low the PP this way. You add some more power instead for a better top speed.

Hi Maestro, it seems this car might have been changed since your post as I'm getting 562.48PP at the lowest following your settings (wide body, rim and offset wide) all numbers match except PP and rotational G (1.06, 1.13 and 1.21 for me)

I prefer this car at 700PP than 600PP , for this the original engine version is ok for Tokyo.
On Le Mans of course it's excelent due to low consumption. Also a top car on technicals tracks like Nordschleife or SPA...
You can induce oversteer or drift on corner entry , just stay late on brakes , giving some wheel angle. Not too much because you can lose the rear end easily . It's very reactive.

This is such a fun, true rally style sidewaysing machine! Makes me smile! Thanks Praiano.

I've always had a soft soft for Lancers, since my first car was a '74 LA Lancer.

Some pics of it attached.

Updated both steering wheel and wheel base. I hope it'll never hapen again. Anyway , i love the next circuit is Watkins Glen. I hate Le Mans with all those stupid penalties.

I've had this happen recently too. It was a lot worse for me before the last patch (which was supposed to fix it). There is a trick Tigdney mentioned in a video/stream that seems to work: pause the game, even for a split second, and as soon as you unpause the wheel works like normal. It's sucks when it happens still, but better to waste a split second to pause/unpause than most of a race. I wish PD would get a better fix in.

For this do you use a roll cage or no?

I have 2 NSX '92 , with or without weight reductions. For this car , roll cage is 100% decorative. It don't change any 0.00PP .

I didn't have this car in my collection so I bought it, tuned it and raced it. It's a great drive and (again) a great tune Praiano !

I made a livery for it inspired by a great Lanza Motorsport Giulia, it was the first GIULIA QUADRIFOGLIO racing at the NÜRBURGRING 24H 2020.

It lap 1:30 regular , need to use to it some few laps , the last fast left turn , need to control with a very light deceleration releasing 1 cm your right foot . Or full gas if you're able and safe. I use TC1 for safety. You can this special setting.

I Know while racing lobby's someone has gotten the RX7 90' without the engine swap going as fast as the Boss and there was another car but I can't remember. I think it was the 02' Silvia

@danrdz6

Finally i did a maxed setting because the car is very fun like this. Of course the grip is fantastic , can fight with the best 700PP if the track is not so fast. Top speed is not very good due to bad CD "drag coefficient".
I'll do another specific 600PP Sport medium tires soon.

Hi Maestro.

In this post you mentioned you would do a sports medium 600pp version, have you ended up making it and is it worth sharing? Thank you!

 

[DaeWon73]

I have a burning question for you Mr @praiano63 ... What cars do you suggest for the last two new weekly challenge races? 😁

[KipDog]

Are you going to update this? I can't get 1st gear that low

It’s a bug introduced in 1.44. Many of the cars won’t set first gear as high as before the update. Shouldn’t be a problem really, as the other gears can be set properly and first will still go fast enough. Hopefully 1.46 will restore the full gear ratio range.

 

[GTvsForza]

It still worked, anyway. I used the Carrera GT for the Porsche Cup (just swapped to the appropriate tires and it was well in the PP limit)

 

[Kentali92]

Hey ,any tunes for Toyota ts030 or 050?

No i don't. They are not performant in GT7.

you mean not good enough?

 

[praiano63]

Slow. They work well during Kers moment and the rest of the time you're looking the others passing you. Porsche have a better balance between kers and power. At least when i tested both.

oh okey,thanks..Haven´t tried them ,i quite liked Audi R18 in sardegna circuit experience, top speed is slower than those old gr1 cars ,but so much better braking and downforce.

Have you got a good tune for the lightweight k-cup

Have you got a good tune for the lightweight k-cup

I use this tune of Praiano for the S660. Great tune has won me all the Kei races:

PRAIANO'S TUNES : SETTINGS FOR GT7

No roll cage, roll cage gives a huge amount of PP at 700pp for this car for some reason That was it, thanks! This game for real....

Very good choice for the Gr1 race at Fuji. The Bugatti VGT (Gr1) with your tuning settings absolutely dominates the field, even on "hard mode". Thank you Praiano!

 

[DafftyDude]

Hey dude, since the RA272 is on sale, I bought it and wanted to ask if you could do some magic on it for the WTC-700 series! An all track setup ofc

(I'm going to attempt all of the races with it lol)

Thanks beforehand!

Have you got a good tune for the lightweight k-cup

My experience with Gran Turismo was miniscule before 2023 and GT7. The Lightweight K-Cup was the first class of races that baffled and frustrated me on how I could not even crack the top 5 on most occasions despite trying all the different Kei cars and upgrade combinations to stay under 400pp. Now I have a go-to Kei car that crushes the competition on hard difficulty. It is the Honda Beat '91. The catch is that it requires the K20C1-Civic-'20 engine swap. You must be level 50 to buy the engine or it is possible to obtain it by chance through the roulette wheel.


You can use all the same settings from the first 2 columns of settings on Praino's Honda Beat '91 - 537PP - Sport Soft - All Track - Swap - 1.39 tuning but use Comfort Soft tires. I also used all the same upgrade parts/settings he has listed for Supercharger, Intake/Exhaust, Brakes, and Drivetrain. However, for non-removable upgrades, you only add Bore Up, Stroke Up, Polish Parts, weight reduction 1-3, and Increase Body Rigidity. Since the <400pp version doesn't have as much Max Power as the 537pp version, I also reduced each gear in the gearbox by 10km/h. I also did not get the wide body. It is so overpowered you need to be careful when turning and braking. But once you navigate through a turn, it can catch and pass any vehicle that K Cup will throw at you.

I used to despise any K-Cup race, but now I look forward to them.

The only problem with this is it makes it way too easy..I used a Cappuccino with stock engine that had been upgraded a lot . It has all kinds of pp glitches.I swear it seems like if you already have anti lag set to strong from a previous build it has a lower pp than if you add it.. I took it off and the pp went up two points.I’m going to build another and see..My final specs were stock springs and brakes(sport pads) 108 hp-1475 lbs-close ratio trans.Not a wide car.
