Hi man, im just a beginner player with 919, my best lap is under 1:35 but still almost 35, but my best record is 24:48, how did you do no stop? fuel map 6? much appreciated

Really? So if I accidentally hit someone I won't loose it?

sardegna never punishes, i dont know why, probably i paly easy mode

Hi, that's quite an old time. My pb with that car is 23:46.628 and 1:32.052. If I remember correctly, I drove with one stop without changing tires using racing hard compound.

hi, some cars' info shows ''- '', usually happens on displacement, what does it mean? unknown?

Fictional/prototype cars with no (public) specification.
The game doesnt need to knwo the displacement, all that is necessary is the power curve and transmission, displacement is just a means to create that power curve among other factors.

Hello all the fast guys ,
here it's not really fast but i'm happy with it for chill grinding.
As i bought thr 787b this morning, i decide to have a go with it on sardegna tc800 .
As i wanted chill run both at , TC 1 no other assit .
First did 25'13 and second Time 25'03.
Tuning was from Praiano for geometry , and Random adjust for power and ballast , running hard tyre .
I'm happy with that for grinding , thank for this post that make me do that race as grinding one.

Lesson learned, much appreciated, i thought displacement is about fuel consumption🙏🙏🙏

Here!

Really really appreciated.🙏🙏🙏

Guys,this is my limit i guess, can't do any better, very probably because i play with all abs and turning assist.......

Why not give it a shot and lowering the amount of assist systems step by step?

i tried, felt like a totally different game hit and understeered every single corner, guess i'm just a lame player🥹🥹🥹

This could be the tune you're using that's giving you constant understeer

I don't think so man to be honest, i use lazi's tune, the worst situation happens to xjr-9, even i can't make it in 25mins, i still drive automatically.

New record!!!!!! i dropped TCS down to 2, obviously faster than before. thanks guys.

When i started the game , i also had aids on ,after few months i realise that without them i was faster .
I also realise that i could feel way better the behaviour of the car and his nature.
ASM and Countersteering can easily " cover " problems in the behaviour of the car , problems that you can solve with proper tuning .
Don't be afraid to run at least without ASM & Countersteering especially if you have particular races that you use to grid .
TC i use it too , mostly at 1 or 2 under raining conditions at powerful cars .
Unfortunately i van cut it out on lower power cars and that's because i use buttons for throttle and brake.
Start eliminate them with cars you feel comfortable with , its a different ride and feeling, with and without them.

Just wondering guys, any tips you can give me to get faster on the dualshock?

I'm simply miles away from everyone else despite using recomended tunes and cars.

 

[AlexWilmot]

@Gilgameshzxy I gave the car 2 runs with and got this, Didn't seem that understeery, I use Manual gears though, TC 0 and no assists and a gamepad

Spoiler: Results

Spoiler: Tune

Part of it is practice, part of it is talent.
You can always do practice, and depending on how much capacity is left for talent, you can grow.

I dont have any talent for high downforce cars, so my limit is reached pretty soon.

I don't think so man to be honest, i use lazi's tune, the worst situation happens to xjr-9, even i can't make it in 25mins, i still drive automatically.

Maybe it is first lap cold tyres understeet.
Otherwise you are late on the brakes / not releasing for the turn in point.

All fast tunes for group C on Sardegna will feel understeery - this track benefits from power more than cornering, hence the downforce levels are optimized for as little PP taken from power as possible - lowest front and max rear. This makes them understeery in the corners but is worth it in the lap times.

Play with steering sensitivity - in my case higher values make it easier to tame the aforementioned understeery cars. In fact I exclusively use maximum sensitivity per today.

could be why I’m missing 1-2sec a lap then… but I’d rather side with me not being as fast as you guys

 

[Gilgameshzxy]

guys, could you please teach me how to read and adjust ''gear box diagram/manual adjustmet'', i don't get it at all, what do those numbers mean?

Interesting drive this, played around with the ballast and BB for better turn in

 

[Wilsonson]

What did you find helpful for ballast and especially BB?

 

[AlexWilmot]

What did you find helpful for ballast and especially BB?

Since the car doesn't have tuning options you have to force the weight around to a more neutral position when the car is braking and coasting,
BB - 3 to the rear
150kg of Ballast at 40 to the rear
ECU to 80 to balance the torque

Never used 1st gear, mostly 2nd just before apex and up shift to 3rd before getting on throttle.
Used RH for a 1 stop race and short shifting to get 8 laps

 

[Gilgameshzxy]

guys, is mclaren f1 gtr bmw worth buying? it's available now, thank you!

 

[Larzi-]

It is a gr3 variant. Not that much more useful for this race than other gr3 cars. As far as I remember, the driveability is not the best either. An expensive collector's item. Other McLaren racecar, gr2 variant, is again a great grinder for many races and comfortable to drive.

Thank you Lazi!!!
however, is it better than other gr3 crs for gr3 races since it's so expensive?
