Steven just open up a spot for me on your friends list and I'll send it your way! It's a devil, though. And I run about half as much decel diff as accel, but the downforce is for sheer speed. GT cars have enough mechanical grip to where the speed benefits of downforce adjustment outweigh the handling benefits. For example, the 458 runs better with no aero even on Mugello! Sounds crazy I know. Is it harder? Yes. Is it less consistent? Yes. But is it ultimately faster? Yes.

Anyone have a solid Porsche tune because I'm beyond frustrated with this thing

Been testing at Suzuka with the Z4, completed 16 laps with a best time of 2:02:498 with the majority of the lap times being around the 2:03 bracket. Had a few issues including locking up into the hairpin, running wide a 140R and locking up into the chicane. Unfortunately I had a spin at 140R and hit the barrier side on with put an end to my testing. Hopefully the car will be sorted as I have Motegi, Silverstone, Hockenheim and Infineon lined up for testing.

130R

Incase you didn't know, Silverstone and Hockenheim are not in the schedule.

I know but it gets me used to the car and racing manual gears plus I can work on straight line speed there due to the long straights

Its possible for a 1.30.8 lap around sunset with a stock tune, and im not the greatest driver in the world by any means. My Audi R8 is marginally better than the McLaren around there.

by DonatedSatyr227 Wed 7 May 2014 - 23:02

Is a 1.23.9 ok around Indianapolis in a Viper ?

by LMR Deftone MX Thu 8 May 2014 - 0:57

by Eycd Thu 8 May 2014 - 15:59

I can't seem to get into 26s at all

by djlandrover Thu 8 May 2014 - 16:27

by JRob6698 Fri 9 May 2014 - 10:57

my quickest lap so far is a 1.29.281 with minimal tuning

by Aero180 Fri 9 May 2014 - 15:05

The Lambo will struggle here but it will be a great car in pretty much every other track, can only manage a high 27 right now

by **Koenigsegg R** Sat 10 May 2014 - 19:55

Finally found a setup that works for the Abruzzi on this track. I can do 26's now. Hopefully it's good enough for Lobby A.

Really struggling as well, on top of that I suck at tuning fast cars... Hope the Lambos advantages will show in the next tracks.

by Eycd Sat 10 May 2014 - 22:22

Going into the race I doubt I'll get into 26. 27.2 Is my absolute limit.

by LMR Deftone MX Sat 10 May 2014 - 22:43

If you guys want a setup for it I think I have one ony storefront. I got a 26.4 in mine, so see how you like it and if you want it, ill send it.
