[sn00pie]

-=Unofficial Time Attack Competition=-

The Course: Grand Valley Speedway
The Car: Lotus Esprit Sport 350
Description: Buy a Lotus Esprit 350, tune it as much as you like [buy everything if you want to win!] then cut it loose in arcade mode on Grand Valley...find the weakspots and start working on that perfect set-up (please don't use tuningguides - for the sake of the funfactor).
Run a few and if you think you ran a great laptime post it here. Troughout the comp. you can exchange set-up tips etc. should be loads a fun!

Goodluck everyone!

ok ruf i had about an hour on this and its a mission impossible mate that was possibly the most devious choice of car and course i have seen posted as a challenge i was at it for easy 40 mins just trying a few set ups and it was still all over the place , your nasty man lol

anyway heres my best time so far with a clean run my time was a medi-ocre 1.45.874 and my settings are as follows

brake balance = 18 21
lsd initial = / 10
lsd accel = / 30
lsd decrease = / 10

auto setting 34

asm 20
tcs 10

and my main setting screen is captured i know lazy or wot ?

 

[sn00pie]

I'm dissapointed in you man Are you sure you've got it fully tuned (1070hp)? My best so far: 1'39.291.

 

[sn00pie]

New best time: 1'37.512

Thought I'd try your little challenge, got down to 1'40.2xx after about 15 minutes of tuning. Think I'll try some more later, let you know what I come up with.

I got her down to 1'37.842
It would take alot of work to get it much lower.
Might be able to go 1'36, don't think she'll go down to 1'35

I've been running the same compo at a dutch forum and people are hitting 36's and 37's... In the meanwhile I already hit two 35's, the fastest a 1.35'616 and the other one was high '8xx but I'll have to check. Great time though!!
