I have been meaning to do a tune for this for a while. It’s been a bit of a challenge to balance Performance and Fuel use. I tried it with a rear wing to give a bit more stability but it turned out that it made the front too light and steering a waste of time,even with it at a low setting it became more of an air brake than a downforce wing. I did make a bit of a problem by adding body stability which meant it was over 700pp.With that I had to add 62 kgs of weight to bring it to less than 700pp.It’s still competitive but it has slowed it down a bit. It can get 4 laps of fuel and weather permitting a set of RH will last the full 30 mins.At the start set brake balance to zero until you warm the tyres as it can snap. I did try the anti roll to 9 but it made the front too stiff and that made it lose traction on the front on cambered corners making it almost undrivable.

There was an inherent issue with this tune. I went back with just stage 1 weight reduction and adjusted the ride height and tweaked the gears,it now performs as intended.

thanks again; I found this setting really effective, I have some riding drools, but it's my style. from difficult car to fun car, I ride in Le Mans without getting bored. this time your lsd setting is very good for me too

I love the Le Mans circuit and it’s great for doing tuning as it has all the track conditions,long straights,tight and easy corners and Chicanes not forgetting elevation changes. I just wish they would add a full 24 hour race with a save function like they had in previous versions of GT. I was also tinkering with the Lambo Mura last night and it seems that it’s going to be another amazing car for the Track, I think I will have done it by tonight.
