Time Trial #76: 550PP RWD Road Cars @ Spa Francorchamps

[Dalone]

Well done Stewy, I've given up on this TT, I'm miles behind you lot

Well I haven't given up just yet but I too can't seem to improve much. Few tenths down to 2:37.0 but I'm only finding another half a second out there.

Might have to bite the bullet and try Cargo's tune. But that's just between you and me.

 

[super_gt]

There is guys with sports hard tires.

Good luck Dalone, I can not wait until Friday.

Hi guys, been away from time trials for a while, got back in last event just breaking into the top 150.
Finding this tt is really difficult with the directional buttons - does anyone have room on their friends list with a nsx on share, the one I've been using has the 3rd stage engine upgrade.
Is it faster without? Think im at 404bhp (no ballast, full down force)

great lap bandit and thanks to everyone who shares tunes.

Psn - Lou8ball

(should be online in 8 hours or so)
Cheers!

There is guys with sports hard tires.

We call them cheats. Has happened quite often over recent TT's. Eventually they get the bullet though.

And Lou, I have a couple on share, send a FR. There are a number of good tunes posted here too.

PS, the black one has 3rd stage upgrade, the green one doesn't.

Oh, I'll be on the PS within 1/2 hour or so.

The car on share now isusing same tune as Bandit without chasis rigidity i think {silver?}

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Those who feel slow, don't give up, I'm still on 2:39xxx I have 2 cars on share on my main GTP_Orido, NSX and R33 LM, both with chassis reinforcement and max downforce tune.

 

[Hyper-Dan]

I feel like such a noob.. I went into the settings to change to Ridox's tune and thought it was strange that I had so much more HP.. Turns out I had stock DF settings lol.. Best lap with the new setup is 2'33.176 which puts me in 92nd place.. I was aiming for top 100 so that will do nicely..

 

[skyline1683]

Nice to see the cheats and multi account users back still makes me laugh that even with cheating they still can't beat a lot of the honest racers on here

 

[Wolski_Martin]

I will share it next time I'm on, it's heavier than NSX, feels like a boat , used high rpm turbo instead engine tuning to get more HP + less torque increase. It has chassis reinforcement installed, some distance on it Oh, it's also front heavy, unlike the NSX, so it will need extra attention at the track.

I tired yesterday NSX the back is very nervous, Funny I just did few laps in it. And Spa I only know from TV so I endeup in High 1:42, late at night the shared NSX wasn't there so I tried Ford GT '6 its very fun to drive and eventually I improved to a low 1:42. Im still learning the track, I can at leas do I think 1:39 in it. I did noticed that on some corners you really can go of the track and don't get red time. I wonder how the Nissan will be. Do you drive it with Wheel or ds3?

 

[Wolski_Martin]

Made a small improvement this morning went from 2.35.735 to 2.35.157 the 34s are close now. it's smiley disease can be fatal.

Nice time

I am using stick -DS2 with USB adapter, it's pretty old and the steering is loose, so it's hard to be precise when entering corners . The R33 LM is not going to beat the NSX, but feels good and stable.

I've take some pictures but i don't have pen drive to export them here, but you can do the test yourself.
Load the replay of the Italian cheater tony_55_venezia (half cheater because he put his replay online)
Take a picture of the front right tire at la source where you can see it clearly.
Then take a premium car with comfort soft tires and do the same.
Check the 2 pics: THE tony_55_venezia IS WEARING SPORT TIRES.

They can hide the name of the tire but not the picture.... for the moment.

><(((((°>°°°°°°

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Tony's car has been discussed several page back It has SH tire ( not really SH ), front and rear downforce

You're right sorry, didn't saw this. But here they are finally i get my pendrive back.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

The tire glitch is a loophole in PD tire regulation check system

 

[Dalone]

A slight improvement to 2:36.9 using Pitty's tune. I tried Cargo's and it felt pretty good I must say, liked the gears, but hardly troubled my ghost with it.

 

[escama1]

well they return cars patched... Friday night I did my last time, on Saturday after eating turned the ps3 to try again... PUMM does not work (the reader is broken) so I'll have that buy a ps3 and the GT6 i have already prepared 400 euros 👎

PS: good time bandit, without abs I think that could reach a 2 30 6 with this adjustment, but not more

Thank you sir, thank you again
As so many times before your tune made it easy gold for me.
Don't know if you added chassis reinforcement? I used it because it was already installed.

Hey Dalone, I am only 5 seconds behind you and I may have found out why I am not doing so well in this TT is not being a aggressive driver that's why I am way behind.

You're welcome. Chassis reinforcement don't make any difference in my opinion for this car.
You can put it if you want, i didn't feel anything. It's possible also to low the front damper compression 1 or 2 point and or raise the rear ARB 1 point. This tune is just a safe base, you need to adapt it to your need and style.
Have a good day.

 

[Dalone]

Yes mate, aggressive driving is required here. Of course aggression and control go hand in hand but chances need to be taken, you never know what you will get away with unless you give it a go. Good luck.

Ha ha, I'm 10 seconds better than the Gold time but 7 seconds off the front runners times and cannot for the life of me see another 3 or 4 seconds coming up for me, let alone another 7.

 

[BanditKarter22]

I really hope they eradicate those cheating times off the top of the leaderboard before the end of this event, I want the record books to show I got 1st place.

Deus mundial regulagem na casa! 👍
Obrigado senhor- will try it out immediately!

 

[sportacus]

First run is done with clean oil. I'm currently at a 2:31.371 with a possible 30.9xx. I'm gonna see what I can do with dirty oil now.

Down to a 2:31.200 with the dirty oil. I can get within 3 tenths of Bandit entering the last sector, but I can't get a rhythm in those final few turns.

Hi Doodle,

My time with Bandit's setup is of 2:33.819 with clean oil! Do you think that dirty oil will decrease my lap time? I can see that there is not so much difference based on your laps...
