Any tune that allows for both racing hard and intermediate tires with the Dodge Tomahawk X. There are a lot of tunes here https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...eat-srt-tomahawk-x-3-300-000-per-hour.407464/

For the best fuel management use a detuned GR. 1 car. Don't worry if you are not in first place after 30min he will pit. They will pit at least 3 times and gr. 1 car only needs to fuel one's.
I have used the Mazda 787B and also the Mclaren VGT.

To be honest i didn't even make special tunes. Won it 2 times one in Honda NSX GT500 with race hard tires (everything stock) and 2nd time in McLaren 650S GT3 with "medium rpm turbo" and that's it. Good pit-strategy is the key.

The new Subaru is excellent in stock settings. Add the mid range turbo and restrict to under 800.
if you can’t win with a group 3 the McLaren F1 GTR legendary can lap all cars easily with @praiano63 tune.
The GR3 Mazda vision with @praiano63 tune is OP imo so use that if you want to use a gr3.

I only run in this race with Gr.3 cars as I feel anything over that will be just 1h of funless steamrolling. Unless I were only looking for credits, then it's all game.
I wouldn't bother much with setup other than setting a tad stiffer anti roll bars to make it quicker through the snaky sections like Les Combes-Malmedy (T5-T7) and the Bus Stop chicane at the end. I've been running with 7-7 there but 7-6 would also work well if you feel you're losing the rear too easily mid corner.
Do not recommend stiffening up the springs too much. Some kerbs in Spa will disrupt your ride in the dry already, when it rains it's practically a death sentence. If I'm not mistaken mine are set somewhere between 3.80-3.95 favoring the end I feel struggling the most - i.e. the front if I understeer too much on the low speed corners or the rear if I feel I'm too unstable when coming off of a trail braking section.

I like that one too but prefer the Honda concept GT500. The downforce makes spa like a rollercoaster. The two litre turbo versions are better on fuel too. I’ve managed a load of these races on dry hard tyres the whole way. Just slight showers on certain areas of the track. Pressed for no change off tyres and no refuelling A few times too🤦♂️

Anyone can share full settings for this race? Other than Tomahawk.
F40, F50, 330P4, Alpine A220, Radical SR3, 930 Turbo, take your pick...

I can get 2 laps on every car using my tune for the Porsche 962 C which I've posted at the link below.

Hello GTPlanet, I've been a member on here since GT6 and I've played Gran Turismo games since GT1 on the Playstation 1. I started tuning my own vehicles on Gran Turismo 7 and I did a good job tuning with several vehicles thus far so I'm wanting to start posting and sharing my garage on here for...

Just use the mclaren f1 gtr 97. Have heavy wet tyres ready for about lap 11 and you good to go. Also any Le Mans car drives it easy. Hard and heavy wet tyres

Are wets needed for this race, or are intermediates fine (along with rh's).
Read in a few posts that wets aren't really needed so far in this game.

I used intermediate tires and I managed to win several times doing this race with the Porsche 962C, heavy wet tires don't last as long as intermediate tires so I avoid using them unless 100% necessary / required.

Anyone have a tune for the Porsche 919? Great car but lacks speed on the straights when detuned to 800pp

Since it's 1h and not by laps, it depends on whether you want to win or test yourself.
Gr.3 cars can win. This race is comparable to Human Comedy #7. I think it rains at the 43 min mark, and it's a damn downpour. As soon as you see the clouds, head into the pits, because you lose a lot of time there and, by the time you exit, the track is wet already.
I don't know if the weather always changes but, when I did the race, there was heavy rain for a while, then the track began to dry. I pitted for RMs, which I thought was a mistake, but it ended up being a blessing in disguise when it started raining again, as everyone headed into the pits and I switched to Inters. Then I just stayed on the road until the end.
I think that, when the rain stops, the AI will stay a long time on the track with their Inters, expecting more rain, but they'll be slow since there's a very clear drying line you can benefit from if you're on slicks.
Personally I found the track undrivable without Wets. Inters can work if you're really careful and know the places with less water, but they're risky.

A ton of good answers above, but I have found the new C8 Corvette to be very fun, if not OP. Even with fuel set to its most conservative, you are still several seconds faster than the leaders.

Love the Group C cars here. There's tunes listed for them. Just mind the pit entrance. Also the exit penalty line.
