Tuner Wars by Harvey Wallbanger (First 2 battles joined 12/6/11)

I should have some time to run dee and onboys trucks to wrap this challenge up. Also I fixed the f-150 for online if you're still interested Da Dog.

Did I take the Lamb and Midget off share, or did you run them already?

 

[ACSR421]

I tested the lamb already. The midget I'm sure is a great drive but I'm looking for the fastest time at Deep Forest.

I know, I was only kidding about the Midget

 

[ACSR421]

My results for the 550pp RS Deep Forest Sport truck battle. All trucks tested with tire/fuel consumption on and grip set to real.

Xdesperado: SSR 1:14.391 easiest to drive and the fastest with best sound
Krenkme: Ram 1:14.496 fairly easy to drive, very good acceleration and speed
Acsr421: F-150 1:15.087 second most difficult to drive, good acceleration
Onboy: Toyota 1:15.581 Most difficult to drive.

Congrats to Dee and his very fast SSR on the win.

Glad you liked my upgraded "Spooky" and that it worked for you.

Still need to fix it for online as DaDog says its rather to loose there.

One tenth of a second . Great battle! Thanks for testing. Now I need to go find that ONE TENTH!!!!

I'm sure a couple of others will be along shortly, but in the meantime, here's my submission. I have it up on share for anyone that wants a drive. If you build it yourself, don't oil it, let it break-in naturally. You'll start at around 397PP.

Thank you Cy for moving this here 👍 (it's not that I didn't love the exposure at Clueless, but that's why Harvey made this). Bad weather is keeping me from home, but my "Mini-Merc" should be up on share soon (thanks to my daughter ) and mine as well was a natural 400pp tune

Lets hope this work with my "new" phone... a link to the "mini-Merc"...

[krenkme]

Well hopefully I'll finally be able to spend a little time with my kei cars tomorrow.

Will try to post tunes for both of them in a couple days.

Holidays coming, so I hope to find out why the A-Z is alot slower then the Beat. I'm not sure this is a "War" or just trying to find out the best "sleeper tunes" out there 👍

EDIT: Double post

 

[sheephead99]

I'll tune and test I'll put my entry on share tomorrow

[XDesperado67]

Still breaking in my Lancia Delta HF but I've gotten a best time of 10:28.431 for full race at Fuji, MoV +16.215 vs. BMW 120i '04. My car is running 400PP and really needs someone that drives MT instead of an automatic transmission due to the power curve.

I've had to add 106kg ballast to the car so far with no engine upgrades or weight reduction to it. Car is at 133.6 miles currently.

 

[CyKosis1973]

Thank you Cy for moving this here 👍

Nay bother Sir, I was conscious of spamming up your garage.

It's a great car, isn't it?? I've run it stock on SS tyres online many times, racing mates. My build was originally meant for SH tyres and if I'm honest, it's a bit twitchy on SS tyres.

Have you got any times for the Eifel track..?? I've updated my OP in this thread and will add times as they come in. Feel free to drive any of the other cars and submit some times 👍

EURO HOT HATCH TIMES

[XDesperado67]

The Cooper in London is killing me.

Running a mid 1:04 first lap then high 1:02 - low 1:03 laps and still losing by about 4 car lengths.

Harsh. I've not encountered the Cooper at London, the lead car is always the old skool Golf GTi, who on these tyres, I catch during the 4th lap. A 1:04 kick off followed by 1:02/03s has always been enough to see me through by a comfortable margin. The minimum times I've found against the Golf are a 1:06 start followed by low 1:04s, but you can't touch a wall or another car ... AT ALL..!! Perhaps I need to load that race up a few more times and see if I can spawn the Mini

For me the cooper is starting in first and tries to run off and hide.

 

[Onboy123]

I've ditched the Mini Marcos, I can't get it over 400PP without getting past 100hp.

I'm trying the Lupo GTI…but I think I'm suffering from amnesia, because I can't seem to remeber how to tune a FF in my style…

 

[CyKosis1973]

The '05 in particular is a cast-iron 🤬 I regularly encounter it at Fuji, Rome and Eifel. However, at the Eifel track, it's usually being held up by the 207 (ironically).

I'm having little problems tonking him on SS tyres though. SHs were a challenge sometimes and on CS it's veritably impossible at 400PP. 415PP(ish) is about my limits with this car on CS tyres...

I'm trying the Lupo GTI…but I think I'm suffering from amnesia, because I can't seem to remeber how to tune a FF in my style…

A tidy car that Lupo. Not sure how well it'll fair at 400PP. If you look at the 'typical opponents' for each race, you should see what PP the AI are running. Before I chipped the Pug, it would consistently get out-dragged by the 1.4 Lupo ... oh, the shame..!! Pop in an ECU and it's a different story

{Cy}

 

[XDesperado67]

I'm guessing that someone driving MT wouldn't have near the problems as I am with it at 400PP. The power curve doesn't make it a good choice for driving automatic. Add in the fact that with the current ballast it weighs in around 1475kg with only 219hp and it doesn't exactly have drag race level acceleration.

 

[krenkme]

Okay, I'm either too tired, I can't drive (<-- this), or my "Mini-Merc" does not belong in this Compitition.
5:21 @ London
10:58 @ Fuji
I won but still

 

[XDesperado67]

My Lancia should be on share if anyone wants to test it.

I gave up on London as I was to tired and making to many mistakes.

Hey CyKosis can you lay down a few times with my Lancia?

It's on share now that I have it fully broken in.

Ok&#8230;&#8230;now I'm stuck. I don't know what to tune&#8230;&#8230;I've got a Fiat Punto, but I don't really want to tune yet another FF&#8230;&#8230;

&#8230;ah sod it. I'll tune that as that's about the only drivetrain I am even remotely good at tuning for.

And can I get this straight, Despy is tuning a Delta right? Not the Pug? Or both?

 

[DaDog]

finally the weekends has started , saturday 12.30 , not good . yet stillo finally i can get ready to do some testing its about time lol

 

[XDesperado67]

I've only got one copy of the 205 T16 road car and I really don't want to risk messing it up currently. Got 3 or 4 of the rally ones its just the road car I don't have any extras of.
