It may not seem very powerful at 308 bhp but it handles great on short, tight circuits and medium twisty circuits. The supercharger really gives it umphf through the first 4 gears without any of that turbo lag.

about the gear ratio, you guys know that power modifications, specially the muffler, changes the gear value, right? so if you set the ratio first, then add a better muffler, then go back to ratio, its all changed and you have to tweak it again.

PD have this since GT5, when your power is increased, they "conveniently" makes your ratio a bit taller so that you wont run out of gear on top end...

PD, look, when the power is increased, we also increase the weight to meet the PP requirement so the top speed will be still the same - we know what we are doing so dont 🤬 around with our settings you dip:censored:!

This is true. It has been an issue since GT5 that if you upgrade parts after setting the gears, it will mess up the gear settings so you have to reset it all. I always install the power parts and make sure I have hit the right PP before setting the gears. This step is always the last step when I tune any car.

Tuned and tested on Tour of America. Wins by 25 - 32 seconds on each track. like an american muscle car, it does not like tight corners at speed so the best technique is slow in, fast out. Brake earlier than normal to ensure you hit the apex at the right speed.

Tested with TCS = 1 ABS = 1 (all other aids turned off)

[shaunm80]

Ive posted a few tunes up and would like to get a feel for how these tunes are working for other people. Could anyone who has used either the seasonal or general tunes let me know which tunes are good and which they feel could use a little adapting to make them better. General feedback would be great so I know which tunes to compare to when tuning up new cars. If the feedback is positive, it would be nice to know what is good about the tune as well.

Currently working on a 450PP SH Alfa Romeo Brera (about 80% done)

Thank you all.

This car was set up to win on the Nascar races. It makes the road races very easy but just watch the rear end doesn't step out when accelerating from sharp corners. Nice and easy is the key to this car.

I used the daytona tune from the GT6 directory to win the other races in this series which is very good too.
