The Kaz GT3 TT @ Nordschleife [Time to Beat - 8:16.990]Finished

[JockeP22]

Kazunori's participated in several endurance races through the years
but this TT focuses on 2013 and his #123 GT-R NISMO GT3 N24 Schulze Motorsport team
and their performance during the 41st Nürburgring 24 hour race.

8:27.467 was the fastest lap time from the team (by Tobias) and it was set on Saturday in the Top 40
Qualifying session at 6:31 PM with a dry track and mostly blue skies.

2. http://www.gran-turismo.com/us/news/00_5537785.html

The TT is set up with the same car specs and weather as it was when the team set their 8:27.467.
Tuning is OK. Can you improve on the lap time? Only times set with the #123 GT-R NISMO GT3 N24 Schulze Motorsport car will be counted.

Just set a 9:21.214 and I only crashed once! It was just after Ex-Muhle at the top of the hill, just a bit to much throttle.

Your lap time isn't showing in the TT event page in the game, Rob.
You need to let the timer run it's course and let the game take you back to
the room/lobby screen.

Cheers mate I have just done a faster lap, which was a 9:18.025 despite crashing at Hatzenbach, Adenauer-Forst, the tight right hander between Klostertal and the Karussell and finally, Eiskurve. All whilst listening to a melodic death metal band from Azerbaijan called Silence Lies Fear and their album, Future: The Return

can't wait to go home from work now...

I will definitely give it a try! 👍
By the way, if anyone is interested, here's the qualifying lap from Tobias Schulze



My lap time: 8:22.581

 

[jammy21]

Just tested and it's little tricky car. Suspension is strange. 8.26

Edit: little more tuning and did 8.23. That's all time I had for this.

 

[gkgamer]

I had to buy the car since I had none of the Schulze, GT Academy, or Base Model GT3 Gt-Rs...
And I remembered why: this car doesn't rotate...
gave it a quick try yesterday but wasn't able to even register a time.
This will require some tweaking. I 'll try to give a go again this weekend.
I may ask some of my Nurb-addicted friends to join if it's ok @JockeP22

 

[jammy21]

Yes this car is one of those weird cars of GT6. I don't like it and I don't have time to tuned it up for this.

This will require some tweaking.

When I was setting my laps I noticed that the car can rotate better with a soft suspension and a mid-front/low-rear downforce combination. That gives more momentum at the technical sections of the Nordschleife, and higher top speed as well. 👍

Edit: Improved my lap time to 8:20.905. I almost nailed the track. I think that's it for me now.

 

[jammy21]

@roamer2629 Interested?

@roamer2629 Interested?

Thanks for the call Joel. Will give it a try 👍

 

[roamer2629]

Just to clear it out, we are running the car stock (Tuning allowed) with an oil change?

Just a 550 HP limit and Hard compound of racing tyres. The rest are up to you 👍

 

[gkgamer]

unfortunately, this combo seems to give a substantial advantage to wheel users over ds3 users...

It depends on the person who uses the wheel or the DS3. I'm using the DS3 and again I managed to take almost everything from that GT-R. Besides that, a very good lap at the Nurburgring requires a bit of luck as well

 

[JockeP22]

Post #2 updated.

I may ask some of my Nurb-addicted friends to join

@roamer2629 Interested?

Thanks gk for inviting some of the daily Japanese Nordschleife drivers and
thanks jammy for inviting your WRS friend. The Kaz TT is slowly growing
and the RR club have passed 100 members (106 now).

Spoiler: 199

Even though the member total says 199 the actual number is 106.
Apparently Polyphony suffered a glitch throughout the community at
the last update and the statistics got wonky as a result.

I have a few PSN friends to invite as well and I'm eager to put a few laps on the
board myself. Haven't found much PS3 time this past week though.

I have just done a faster lap .. All whilst listening to a melodic death metal band from Azerbaijan

I might have to listen to Candlemass then for my attempt at a lap time.

By the way, if anyone is interested, here's the qualifying lap from Tobias Schulze

He had a moment at 3:23 but it was a good recovery and I wonder if that's
barbeque smoke coming over the track at 7:20. : )
Nice video and a solid lap by Tobias, a perfect camera angle too.
I remember watching it before but forgot to include it in this thread.

that's impressive!
and there goes another fancy display of my superior "I sould have kept my mouth shut" skills...

@thehobnob97 @cjr3559 @Sutsagrd @jammy21 @jontikis
Thanks guys for making it interesting.

A new driver has taken over the top two spots in the list and there's
been 17 laps in total set since the TT opened.

Post -> #2 <- at the top of the thread is now up to date.

Anyone reading this is welcome to try the TT and have his time added
to the list.

 

[BenMillard]

A couple of quick goes with a random guess tune. The car hates to rotate, for sure. Using 10% brake and gas was helping me through the central 80% of the corner. Just like the courtesy cars in Quick Match.

Any of my DS3 colleagues care to share their tune? @Baron Blitz Red @Autope10

 

[Baron Blitz Red]

@BenMillard ... I started off with a @GhostRider65 tune but made my own changes to suit me for this TT.

RH: 72/75
SR: 28.25/11.70
DC: 5/4
DE: 4/5
AB: 4/4
CA: 0.0/0.0
TA: 0.00/0.00
BB: 6/6

Diff: 9/6/8

Power: 55.3% with High RPM Turbo

DF: 350/725

I've tried other DF settings but this is most stable for my style of driving.

Here's the original tune... https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/resources/nissan-gt-r-nismo-gt3-n24-schulze-motorsport-13.1729/

@Baron Blitz Red

If the setting gave you a starting base, i say Bravo and congratulations if you are satisfied with the result achieved 👍 !! Good job my friend 👍 !!

You are my go to tuner for ANY given car @GhostRider65 ... I have enjoyed your tunes for quite some time, and they have given me numerous victories to be honest. If I do make any changes, it's to suit my driving style a bit better. I've tried many other tuner's offerings, but always go back to you as your tunes suit me best. Thank you very much!

Cheers

 

[GhostRider65]

Thanks a lot @Baron Blitz Red for this sympathy testimony and i thank you...I'm happy to know and unpretentiously that some of my tunes can help you and it is a pleasure for me to bring and share settings.
Thanks again my friend 👍

Cheers 👍

 

[JockeP22]

I started off with a @GhostRider65 tune but made my own changes to suit me

I borrowed some settings from a @GhostRider65 tune as well.
But that particular one had no turbo so I thought that was the way to go. My own laps
were done without any added turbo but I don't know which strategy is best to be honest,
with or without it.

The standings in post 2 have been updated once again. 29 laps are on the board
now and I'm happy to see that kind of activity, thanks for taking part everyone.

@hiro9341 holds 1st and 2nd place with new driver @tobias_pez in 3rd.

@JockeP22 ... My first attempts were without turbo as well, but after trying several setup configurations, my best times were with the High RPM turbo added. It has that extra ooomph for the 3 high speed sections but with less torque than the the mid-range to keep stability in corner exits.

Try it out, as you and I are fairly close in times.

Cheers

 

[pretend racer]

I had a go using the ghost-rider/baronblitzred tune. On my first attempt I made a few mistakes. I managed an 8:42.xxx.

On my second attempt I made a few minor mistakes but no major ones like the first attempt. In the end I got an 8:35.229.

 

[Zolon32]

Greetings chaps, just had a few spins in the car more or less as it comes from the dealership, just taken camber off and dropped power per the restriction. What an awful bloody motor!

Anyway, did 8:53.025... 8:52.711... and finished with 8:47.813. Hey ho.

Cheers, Zo.
