Ruf Yellowbird tune - Test and Comment - Post Results

[GTP_Vice]

Yellow "Death" Bird tune
- 487 bhp(stock turbo)
- Sport Hard tires (no driving aids used | ABS on 1)
- 7.56.482 (slow lap, the car is always trying to get me killed)- nordschleife (just trying to stay on the track)
- 6 speed manual G25 using the clutch (I can be faster with sequential shifting, you lose some time on the up shifts, downshifts, and it's more complicated since you have to do a lot of things)

- This car makes me scared of the nordschleife!!!!!

Setup:
Height: -20 / -20
Spring: 9.4 / 8.2
Rebound: 9 / 6
compression: 8 / 4
Swaybar: 7 / 2
Camber: 1.7 / 1.9
Toe: + 0.04 / +0.40
(positive toe on the front to reduce steering reaction, the car gets really unstable with abrupt steering inputs)

LSD : 37 / 55 / 40
Gearbox: 340 km/h (211mph)
Brakes: 10 / 7

Even with the steering wheel its almost impossible to keep on the track.
I could make it better with custom gear ratios(make them longer to avoid low speed wheelspin on 1/2/3/4 gear)

Hi just letting you know that i can do a 7:57 on Nordschleife with a bone stock yellowbird with only a oil change(and stock sport hard tires). This i achieved with a g25 and manual shifting with clutch. I have the replay saved and ill make a youtube of it when i figure out the best way too do this.
Soo ill try your setup and see what time i can drive.
But i didnt say this too show off or anything i'm just sharing.
Ill test this setup when i have my second yellowbird.

Hi just letting you know that i can do a 7:17 on Nordschleife with a VW Golf IV with only 315 hp. This i achieved with a ds3 and automatic shifting. I don't have the replay saved, but i can drive another lap and make a youtube of it when i figure out the best way too do this.
Soo your not really that fast but the yellowbird is an untameable beast.
But i didnt say this too show off or anything i'm just sharing.
Ill try making a setup on my own with my one and only yellowbird.


It really is a monster, but I have managed to get rid of most of the oversteer already

Your not showing off by being faster in a easier car to drive, so don't worry...

but it does sound like your trying to mock him.

I don't like it when others act though haha.. If that happens, there is nothing I would like more to do than letting him know :$

I guess a HAHA is in order ??
I didnt meant to show off or act "though".
Just saying that with a tuned yellowbird a 7:56 isnt a record.
If even i can achive a 7:57 with stock yellowbird, there are alot of people who can go much faster then me with stock yellowbird.
That's all im trying too say.
I'm going too try this setup out and let you know what i can achive.
And if even the topic starter doesnt react like this why would you ??
Ill post my replay soon. And will try out this setup soon.
If im faster then my original time ill make a youtube of this also

I just started the game and when I saw the yellow bird in the used car section, i quickly pulled out my wallet and bought one!

I dont' really like this car and don't have that much money since I just started the game. oh well...maybe if i try this set up i'll like it?

 

[desmosabie]

Did you look for an try other tunes and not like them ?

 

[Dr.Boss.]

Forget the yellow bird, i turn sub 7 minute laps in the RUF BTR with 599hp.

I think that's the fun part of the yellow bird, it's always trying to kill me!

Exactly what i feel.
Makes every other car seem broken and numb!!!!

Lol true. Another hard car on the order of the Yellow Bird is the Viper GTS with no aids on, bone stock or with around 600hp. On the same tires on the Ring. Its almost impossible to get back on the throttle and keep straight but when you get it right it feels great. These cars are widow makers lol.

 

[JayHiram]

I think the yellow bird is growing on me. I'm still driving it bone stock.

Mines in the GT5 Garage being fed on a Diet of Small Children and Fresh Raw Meat to keep it happy , till I fugure out how to drive it .
