I have this. I'll not publish it in my garage . If you have a magic LSD setting , you can share it here .

Thanks a lot for your help. Enjoy your drive.

Is the braking behavior that you don’t like is how it’s prone to sliding and how you have to drift it sometimes? I haven’t been able to get all of that out of it.

braking behavior

A very exaggerated behaviors. I don't think a real rally car react like this. This is why rally car pilots use mostly the hand brake for this finality. But i'm not a real life specialist at all , If a real pilot can say something about it , i would be grateful.

Later today.

I wait for the setup of the f50 made by praiano like a child waiting for Christmas morning

 

[praiano63]

I'm not sure about the dampers.

Right , but the effect of the dampers on the balance is very poor.
Brake balance don't do anything , waste of my rear tires after on tokyo show it. One race balance -5 , another +5. Same waste.

I saw your race yesterday , congratulation for the 1st place.
I'm going to publish the F50 in a hour after i'll be back from the beach with the dog. Don't wait for a transcendant car , i did my best for the car give pleasure to drive with racing hard tires at 700PP and i think it's ok . I would love the car been performant with sport soft but it don't the way i was expecting.

You don't need the weight reduction like i did , i've tested it at 800PP but not so performant. Top road car on SPA at this level .
For Le Mans you'll need a longer gearbox using final gear.

I’m going to try messing with the Focus Rally car and see how it behaves for street use. A lot of people say it’s one of the best cars in the game. I just like the GrB cars because they are light, fast, low PP/power and AWD.

Semi related, I need to mess with my Focus RS too. I completely ruined it trying to max out the top speed and I need to try to start over. Those cars have a lot of potential.

 

[VTiRoj]

I remember GT5 when there was legitimately 10-12 full time, massive tuning garages.

Now there’s Laurent and…… a couple of others with 5% of the tunes and 1% of the replies and views.

Being able to help others tunes get used will be better for everyone in the long run.

The tuning comps from GT5 created better tunes and tuners, and were held in really good terms. Everyone was so supportive of each other and was happy to share their findings……

If Laurent has an issue, then he should stop, but if Laurent has no problem then visitors also shouldn’t have a problem.

I miss the GT5 scene, the tuner comps kept the game alive for me 😢

 

[Msoldano]

Wow that F50 tune is a dream! Makes the car so much better.

 

[Ando787]

Praiano63 what is your aim with this tunes? Driveability or outright pace and lap times? You are dropping power in nearly all of them, to bring the PP back within your nominated limits. Do you realise that a tune with slightly inferior settings for suspension, lsd, aero etc will drop the PP way down…. You can then lift the power way back up! This will yield a much faster car, with lap times whole seconds better, at the (small) expense of being a bit harder to drive?

Tested on all kind of tracks , the car is very fast and safe , if you drive it to the limit just don't lose your concentration , if the car go ..... it really goooo away ! Last track i've tested , Nordschleife , it show me all his potential. It's wild and very fast.

1st : Bring the top speed to minimum full left 200 kmh
2d: set every individual gears from 6th to 1st at the ratios writen on the sheet
3rd: Set the final gear ratio to 2.380 at Nordschleife for example

This tune is perfect, Praiano. I cannot find a single flaw in it. It's like the car is part of yourself. Not even the NSX is like it, not the 997 GT3, not the M3 E46, and yes, I've driven them all with your tunes too.

From what I know, he tests mainly at Suzuka and Nordschleife. Those are tracks where you can use a fair bit of power, but it's not so important as grip in the end, especially Suzuka with its many winding corners.

If you want more power you can do many things: lift the car, drop aero, increase weight... I ran his tune at LM with hefty ballast and the car still did well. Not the best car for the track, but it can get the job done.

I noticed Praiano likes to have a lot of rear downforce, which doesn't suit my driving style very much, but adding rear downforce usually drops PP.

My goal is grip , driveability , pleasure with a easy car for racing , to be able to do fast lap after fast lap without losing control . I'm a fast driver but i'm no alien at all. A lot of people like my cars because they are fast and easy.
When i'm smiling when i drive any car i'm working on , it's seems that the job is done and i publish it for other player have a smile too. As simple as this.

" likes to have a lot of rear downforce"
You can see that when i use a lot of rear downforce and low front downforce , i also low the front rear height a lot , giving a big rake.
This way , the PP is the same ,there is almost no PP gain , the front grip is the same as normal equal downforce front and rear with no rake.
I use this trick for cars that have directional problems , a bit wild and a messy . You don't need to use a lot of LSD slow down the longitudinal problems . To much LSD can kill any good car.

I'm on the Lambo Aventador LP750-4 SV 2015.
At 800PP racinh Hard , it's as fast as the Zonda R , my best and faster 800PP "road"car. Just need a difficult fine tune.

If ultimate lap times are the goal, I will take an extra 10-15hP over improved handling every day of the week, regardless of track! As long as the car is not completely undriveable, I recommend sacrificing a bit of driveability, and take the horsepower baby!

There are numerous “Easter eggs” in the tuning menu that will yield awesome PP drops (that then allow you to add back the horsepower, or shed weight!). One click of down force, roll bar, damper, diff etc can sometimes give you back 10PP or more! I challenge anyone to notice the handling difference that makes. It’s free horsepower/lap time, every day of the week!

Tuning in GT7 is more an accounting excercise than tuning for pure handling. Spend your PP wisely folks!

Personally, for me the biggest smile i have on my face is when I’m in the lead! Hence my search for maximum power/weight ratio. I will learn to drive a car that is a bit of a dog to drive, if it’s fast!

Keep up the good hard work mate. You have a lot of fans here!

This is another one I’ve been waiting on. It really surprised me with the stock tune. The murcielago also has tons of potential. Looking forward to it!

 

[RidersBrohan]

how was the gearing set..when i put top speed to 200 i dont get the ratios

Start with the Final Drive gearing and work back from 6th to 1st. As you change the higher gears it opens more possibilities for the lower gears that you couldn’t do before.

I'm ok with you about “Easter eggs PP” , "Tuning in GT7 is more an accounting excercise than tuning" it's a deal with the game PP politic. You're right.

But concerning about "As long as the car is not completely undriveable, I recommend sacrificing a bit of driveability, and take the horsepower baby!" kind of 70% speed 30% grip settings. It's ok for some tokyo races ok , but on suzuka , even nordschleife , SPA or your national Barthurst / Mount Panorama Circuit ..... you'll stay around 2 or 3 seconds back of the 50% grip 50% speed setting . Not at the lead for sure.

Alien drivers almost don't need settings. Only front grip , lose rear and the driver do the rest.... but it's not for the average citizen like me.

Have a good day.

This is another one I’ve been waiting on. It really surprised me with the stock tune. The murcielago also has tons of potential. Looking forward to it!

Also at 700PP on the ring. Fantastic , even better than 800PP . Tomorrow.

 

[slotcarrod]

Very nice tune on the Ferrari F50. Makes you push it harder and harder each lap, very fun! Thank you for the tune!

On another note, It is sad to see so much attitude and criticism from a few people here that think they have a clue! I say to them "Post a better tune than praiano63, or shut the hell up!" I don't think anyone will post a better tune!

 

[kratosgow342]

Tune update

thanks you for this tune the car feel so much better to drive now pretty planted and stable when breaking

 

[optical10]

Guys can someone check this tune hasn't changed with the 1.13 update please as I'm having to set the restrictor to 87 to get 599.96pp?

praiano63 can you test this Mazda Roadster Touring Car tune please to see if it needs an update as I down on BHP compared to yours following settings for Tsukuba Mission 600pp?​

 

[mustangxr]

Hi gang, I just posted my tune for the Ford Mark IV on Mad Tunes. It's a beast for sure so be gentle. It took a lot of work to manage the torque and wheelspin, so please let me know how I did. All other LSD settings seemed to be worse.

Also included with this update is the Amuse 380RS at 700pp which was not so difficult. It's pretty much a perfect sports car, so probably not enough of a challenge for Mr. Praiano.

Hey Mike, I tried your tune on the 67 Ford, and I put the car in the 800PP SPA WTC 1 hour race. (first drive!) The car won handily, although the gearbox was a bit scary with only 4 gears?!?! The race turned out to be one of those tricky ones where after the rain cleared out, we pitted for Race hards, and then the rain started up again? Pitted again for heavy wets and finished on those even tho they were about done!

The car behaved beautifully with nary a hiccup and it was fast too. At fuel map 6 it had pretty good milage also.
Thanks for that Mike, you done good!
Cheers, Pete

Quick question @praiano63 . Sometimes in your tunes you say for gear box "1st : Bring the top speed to minimum full left 200 kmh" but actually full left is 150kmh. For example this Porsche tune I can only get the numbers to match yours if I set the slider full left to 150kmh.
I guess you are using a template and sometimes you forget to adjust the number at the end of the sentence?
