Thank you very much Penelope for share your setup, you are very very fast, you've done an amazing lap with 2j .... My congrats you are so fast for me, but i'll try to beat you :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:
I've made my time with rigidity bar 1.22.201 ... I'll try without it.
I don't see you on leaderboard on the other tt in grandvalley, im trying that and i like more coz the cars are some more difficult to drive.


@ cargorat323 - hi cargo, i'm mixi (alias Mixi125 or GTD_Mixi) im new in this forum and my friend viper ufo says your 2j is a bomb.... I share cars too and i like to help, for this i have send a friend request to you, for try your 2j and for share my cars with you too... Thats all :D...


Thanks again Penelope, have a good day, a great grazie from Italy.... And sorry for my english :)

Hi Mixi, nice to meet you. Sorry I was giving you a hard time about your friend request, I just like to save spots for people I know or meet on here. Don't like filling up my friends list with people I don't know that just want to fill up their friends list so they can say they have 100 friends. So, go ahead and send another request and I'll gladly accept it. Its always nice to have another good clean competitive driver on my list. Again, nice to meet you and sorry for the misunderstanding.

EDIT: Just improved to a 2:08.830. Taking a break to grab something to eat then back at it. Might be a late night early morning type of session for me as its pretty lonely around my house this weekend. Roomate is gone, girlfriend is doing a photo shoot in NY, and everyone else is out doing their thing. Just me and the open track, lol. So, back at it in a bit, hopefully to report back with more inprovement. Peace everyone.

Can someone please repost Yinato's tune? I can't seem to see the pics posted earlier, might be a problem with the image host. Desperate to get in on the action for this TT and can't seem to get a decent time with my own tune.

Thanks!
 
Nothing wrong with the image host as I can see them just fine. Its gotta be your comp, phone, or whatever you are viewing the site with.
 
Thanks for the great tune Yinato. 👍

Can't get the trans gears same as yanitos

Have you changed your wheels? Changing your wheels change your gear ratios.

Nope still ons stock rims
I normally set trans to default then set finale driven then top speed then 1-6th?
 
You'll do it 👍

Thanks for the confidence. But stuck on P46 last night. Was .2xx up a couple of laps later but screwed up in the last chicane :grumpy:


Yeah I was finding it tricky to nail all the sectors.. In this lap I lost a chunk of time in T3. :ouch:

Don't count on us not improving :mischievous:

That T2 is killing me. You've got to be so patience there and a bit unstable car means end of good lap.
 
@Cargorat... GTD_Mixi is a friend, sorry I assumed as they are top 20 material you had them on your friends list. Clean and fast so if you have room would be a benefit to add them :) ... Thanks for the car again cargorat, it's doing wonders as usual.[/QUOTE]

Thanks penelope, you are a friend, a very gentlewoman.... Never seen in my life a woman with your skills :) my congrats and if i can help you i'm very happy to make it.

@ cargo. It's a pleasure for me to be here with the best driver in the world, but in my forum Gtd there are some very very good driver too... Feel free to come in our italian forum GT Drivers, you are welcome.

I hope you have a good sunday, a great ciao from italy :) .

P.s. If i can i'll always help all my friends..... Ciao :)

Went to put my 2J on share and thought I would have a play with cargorats one first, the time difference was bugging me! put my settings on it as usual but had a little play with the front end and gearing, the result was 1:21.657 and 3 places up to 10th.

Very very thanks my friend... 22.065 in 4 laps with cargorat's car with this setup i can do better... In the afternoon.... Ciao :) and sorry for my english.
 
Managed to improve a little with a '07.103.. Puts me in 24th place. If I can break into the 06's I will be happy :D

Thanks Mixi for the invite. I have alot of GTD drivers on my friends list and they are all fast, friendly, and clean drivers. I'll be sure to check out your Italian forums. Thanks again Mixi.

Good one Dan 👍

Haven't had chance for another run so that's it for me as I'm away now until Friday.
 
I don't think I can put anymore time into the TTs due to Hurricane Sandy that's gonna blast through. I might not be online until Thursday at the earliest :(

Good luck doodle and stay safe. We'll see ya on the other side.
 
Had another quick go at Grand Valley.

Was running 08s and the occasional 07s then realised I still had the standard rims on the car 💡

Changed them and was running consistent 07s and got a 07.281s within a few laps. :)

Hopefully my goal of a 06s is within reach............just 👍

Stay safe doodle. You are always caught up in these hurricanes :nervous:

REALLY?

:sly:

I have to try it tomorrow
 
Here is my 2J setup, just shaved a fraction of my time with it though still not back in the top ten, looking at those times I don't think I will be :grumpy: Looks like the guys at the top are keeping their setups to themselves so thought I would do the decent thing and share :)

Ride Hight +7 -7
Spring Rate 13.7 15.8
Damper Extension 6 7
Damper Compression 7 6
ARB 5 6
Camber 1.8 1.2
Toe Angle 0.15 -0.36

Weight 932 @ 40

Gearing reset to standard then set to 199 with slider, then set to 204 with final gear.

Hope it's of use to someone

Ps... It would appear the geometry fault on the suspension has NOT been fixed !

Just wanted to say thanks for the tune. Not as fast as some of you guys but managed a 1:22.338 for a respectable 62nd after about 10 laps.
 
Well, after today's session, managed another small improvement. Down to a 2:08.550. Not that great but hey, I'll take it. Off to chill with some Forza for a bit and back at it tomorrow. Goodnight everyone.

Again thanks for tune and thanks to cargorat for his car... Is a very bomb...
1.21.728 with 2j .... Im very happy, thanks again Penelope :)
 
Well, another small but modest improvement for me again today. Down to 2:08.255. On another positive note, I noticed that I was 7th fastest in the US.

@ Mixi: You're welcome and glad I could be of assistance.

Goodnight everyone.

No problem, glad it helped and congratulations on breaking the .21 barrier, keep at it though as in the right hands I think this is capable of much more...

Hi Penelope, I also tried your setup but I wasn't able to improve my time with it, unfortunately. I saw you got in the top 10 again, congrats, I will download your lap and see what lines you take.

I noticed that you did not post your brake balance, would you mind sharing?

Thanks for posting your top 10 setup, much appreciated! 👍

Oops, I totally forgot about the brake balance, must have had a blonde moment...

Have fun and hope it helps
