I made a quick run for Gold on these last night when they were posted.
The 493hp race I used a Lotus Evora and then improved my time with a R390. I need to tweak my R390 to get better times, but I only worry about competing with my friend's list, not the world list.
I did the Wet Race in the Chap 2J, but it took a bit getting used to those rain tires and accelerating slowly out of turns. I need to tweak my 2J more, but again, only to compete with my friend's list.
I can't remember exact hps or weights of my cars used, because I'm not in front of my PS3 at the moment, but there is nothing exotic in the tunes and they are pretty much stockish suspension settings with most/all Tuning upgrades.
Is it possible to see how you do among your friends somehow?
I wonder does the ground rain % just go from 80 to 100 and stay there, or does it dry up a bit?
Just had 10 laps of wet spa in the 2J
Mostly playing with extreme toe angles to give me an idea of how im gonna try set it up.
Im not sure if thats rain or oil spilling onto the track.

Nice Lap Saidur
P8 when I saw.
I might leave this TT, until the next GT5 update as it could change things regarding the 2J fan settings.
I expect they will close this TT and open another when the update arrives.
I don't have the 2J for the wet...
In 495BHP I can do 2'21 with no active steering (why not 2'20 with ^^)
If anyone wants a good challenge for this, go with the BMW M3. 👍Time Trial
493HP Spa-Francorchamps Time Trial
This is a Time Trial on the Spa-Francorchamps course, using non-racecars with 493HP or less. Cars can be tuned to 493HP and 1000kg, and tires are limited to Sports/Hard or less.
As anyone can suggest some setup suspension on R390 for SPA 500 cv TT? I've some problem of understeer. I've done few attempts yesterday night and my time is 2.28.4. So far!!!Mine's setup:
+05/-08
14.8/12.3
5/3
5/3
5/6
0.25-0.10
-0.06/0.20
brake 7/8
Yes, I've noted that: higher front than rear as mine but I suppose best is more high in the front than mineI ran it stock with maximum d/f and top speed adjustments of the gearing, did a 2.27.7XX with that (#207 at the moment). Haven't burned my hands on tuning this monster yet. I guess adjusting the ride height with a high front end will reduce mid-corner understeer, á la the Schulze GTR. I used extreme ride height adjustments on the latter, so drop the rear end really low and jack up the front end very high, which cured the problem. I noticed in R_a_c_l's Spa replay that he did something of that kind.
I managed my first qualifying time around Spa-Francorchamps Wet. My time was good for 21290th place. My time was a 2:44.664 in my Team Peugeot Total 908 HDi FAP. A PSN friend in another 908 HDi FAP clocked a time ten seconds faster than mine. Okay... honestly, I feel like crap. I'm the only one among my circle of PSN friends in the 2:40 range while everyone else is in the 2:30 range. This is Gold for me since I am not good at wet tracks in almost any game.
Top time at present for the wet race is 2:18.744. However, if you check some of the cars in the Top 10, one had an Audi R8 LMP while another used the Toyota 88C-V. Most everybody else used the classic 2J Race Car from Texas' own Chaparral.
