I must be some kind of special. Using the settings supplied (power and weight) I can't get 450PP with 1030kg and 248bhp. I end up with 473PP
WTF?
Is it just me? I'm not this much of a hack at this game.... usually.
Yeah, my sector 2 was a bit rubbish, don't know when I'll have time for another go, hopefully later this week1:31.117 for 4th place. I'm following Bandit's ghost and I seem to be catching him in sector two on most laps.
Hello everyone,
For a long time I have not posted any message here, I hope you are all well.
I would like to thank for sharing configuration BanditKarter22 because without it, I will be very far behind.
The settings in Gran Turismo 6 are very strange, I can not understand.
There is plenty of room on Trial Mountain, I was slightly ahead BanditKarter22 before the last corner but with the setup I use I can not go back to the car bounces too much and I do not know what change to correct this.
Anyway, thank you for sharing your configuration John.
Good luck to all.
Sincerely,
Anthony.
Ps : Also thank you to Doodle me informed of the availability of the setup on GTP.
I'm not sure whether it's because we're using SRF or not. But it is hard to find improvements when tuning.Nice to see you posting again Anthony,
"The settings in Gran Turismo 6 are very strange, I can not understand."
well it seems you are 100% right ...
Toyota 86 GT '12
450PP, 264hp, 1150kg
Tuned with G27 with Nixim Brake Pedal Mod and ABS 1
Tune built for the Toyota 86 GT Super Lap Seasonal Event @ Trail Mountain - January 29, 2014
I am in love with this tune. If you know anything about real world tuning, this setup will drive your mind crazy. I had to ignore my own real world tenancies and just listen to what the 86 GT wanted in game. This car has massive understeer in stock form. I pulled out all of the tricks to get this to rotate correctly. I simply followed my newly published GT6 tuning guide and it lead me to this wonderfully handling machine. Only three of my friends currently faster than me (@GTP_CargoRatt who is a master at time trials, @praiano63 a tuning phenom who is usually half-a-second faster than me and @Johnnypenso who puts done amazing times without SRF). I am happy with placing a top 500 ranking and being close behind these three friends. I can run this tune on top of my ghost all day long.
One really odd thing about this tune. Look at the picture above. I did not think that this tune was super low or super soft so I was really surprised when I went to photo mode. After this, I did go back, raise ride height and increased spring rates to around the middle. The car was worse. So I returned the springs to slightly higher than I had them and raised ride height around ten numbers. Went a bit faster with a more predictable car <-- win. Feel free to comment on whether it worked for you or not.

I tryed that last night and did 1:34.00x with DS3. (That's good with mine skills and only 150km driven on this TT)For all you non-SRF users this tune may help you get to gold. This is a takeoff of my BRZ tune with added weight reduction for the bumps and elevation changes at Trial Mountain and some shorter gearing. You can drive it as a grippy car or you can throw it around, it'll do either. Gold should be easy for just about everyone after a few laps. Keep the car on the dark tarmac, there isn't a lot of grip at Trial Mountain off the racing line. My best lap was a 1:35.127 with many laps in the low 1:35's using ABS1 only and no other aids. Good luck!!
Spent an hour or so making a tune for this event, feels pretty nice and good enough for 1st place so far, let me know what you think!

Best common sense text I've seen from you since long time ago. 👍More improvement, now down to 1'32.912, good enough for 83rd atm. At this time, I really need to give a shout out to my fellow WRS'er, Vagabond (Chris) for his advice on how to drive this track and how to set up a car for this tracks bumpy surface. It was his help and advice back in a GT5 WRS TT that really helped me improve my times in that event at a point when my progress had stalled. Following his advice from back then is what is allowing me to do so well in this event. Not to mention that I ended up with the best last sector time out of everybody in that event. So to Chris, I thank you very much for your help and advice back then for it is advice I am following to this very day and it is truly paying off in this event. Thank you Chris , I owe my performance in this event to you
SRF is not a cheat, it is an available option/aid for those to use that feel the need to do so. I'm really getting tired of people like you referring to this aid as a cheat and those that use it as cheaters. I despise that aid just as much as the next person, but that doesn't make it a cheat. Yes, its an unreal aid, still does not make it a cheat.
Spent an hour or so making a tune for this event, feels pretty nice and good enough for 1st place so far, let me know what you think!
