Tuner Comments:
Art Morrison created a stunning C1 Corvette. They combined modern performance with classic looks, arguably the best combination a car can have. However the Art Morrison has one slight problem. Its a tyre-shredding monster, regardless how good you are with the loud pedal.
So when metalcue gave us an Art Morrison Corvette to play with, the first thing we did was drift it around Tsukuba, as that was all it could do. After some wizardry with the suspension, its now possible to lap any track without spinning the rear tyres, provided you control your feet. Hammering the throttle simply reawakens the drift beast within.
do you know the transmission setup?? or do i just need to set a final gear?

Unfortuately I'm going to have to say the same thing I said to Barrett, the review is too short for a request to be honest.
The car was tuned on the stock gearbox, so there's no transmission settings. Also that setup was made pre-Spec 2 and never updated, so it'll probably be terrible now.

Redbull em. seriously and don't set pit straghty eather. my bobs tend to pit when they need gas or tires. hell i think i ran 24h Nurburgring on one bob alone and he won by i think 35 lap lead. or something.
@Dragon
any chance of a Bora 4motion tune? im itching for another AWD VW to run.
Hope I get this right...
So I noticed Dragonthing has been having a tad bit of troubles with the Viper(s) so I set BoBs out using her Python tune to tackle 4 Hour Nurburgerking.
Gotta tell ya up front it was good to great action racing throughout the race! BoBs won by a 5 min margin and only had issues it seemed with the first couple of laps, like they were learning the course or something. Strange behaviour from the lot. And then ZOOM! They had it down and nary a slide or a slip to be seen. Pit Strategy left a bit to be desired (GDI why are they filling the tank on near end of race pits?!? Spoon actually caught them due to this!).
And as you can see I styled the snakey bugger to match her Avatar here. Was really coincidental cus most of my cars are umm purple. Sorry, it is my favorite color. One more for style:
So the car runs great and is very capable of taming this endurance race and make it exciting as well! OH! I almost forgot: she did it on Racing HARDS not Softs.

Right, so I'm just past the 2 hour mark now, on lap 14 with a good 3 1/2 minute lead. I'm pitting every other lap with front tyres at about 40% just to keep things easy, and the car is (I think) starting to lose a little bit of power now.

AchyllisMid-race soopa-kwik oil change?
There needs to be a button for this!
Im running Sapphire's GTS '02 now on the 90 lap Laguna race with 4 lvl 26 BoBs. 2 min lead with 71 laps remaining (GDI I thought this would only take like 90 mins not 3 HOURS!). You using the Python for your run now? Curious, as BoBs were pitting a lot as well but not sure it was that frequently (maybe every 4 laps instead) using the Python for Nurenburgertime.
AHH you are using R3s arent you? maybe? Perchance?? I wish ya luck and know you wont need it.

korza493I can just imagine your response....
I'm gonna stay away from GT5 today at least...not worth the effort right now, the new seasonals are p*ss poor and I really don't want to spend half a day on each of the endurances I have left to do. Gonna stick to shooting things, and I really want to watch Silent Hill again, since I'm the only person in existence who absolutely loves that film...

Amen.👍👍
While I don't usually complain about the seasonals these are particularly unattractive.

So Roj, done with the Enduro yet? And unless I'm mistaken, when you pause the enduros, you can save it at a point and do other things before you go back to doing the race, right? Or is it 'save, leave to race menu, carry on in the morning'?
If it isn't the latter and you can still do other things while doing the enduro, could I use my second paint chip payment as a special service request? I want you to tell me the 1/4 drag time of my R34. Without peeking at the settings.
Also, @Nascar, that guy's face freaks me out. Real bad.
