Brilliant, thanks. Just need to figure out clutch shifting now.. Previously I've just used manual with no clutch but a stint on the PH cycled production lobby the other night made it quite clear I need to raise my game.
If you want some practice using clutch, some of us will be on tonight testing probably. You're more than welcome to join.

Managed a 1:36.271 in an A575 Scirocco R (Fattys tune)
But I was pushing everything I could out of it, and I had engine damage.

ETA: 1:36.015
Cheers mate, I was doing the same thing by over revving on the entry, adjusting the gearing slightly should sort that out. I thought it was just me.

Badger, if you set the controller up with button A as the clutch you can carry on as you are, just press the two buttons together and use the roll technique with your thumb for changing up.

ETA: Liam, what track were you doing?

hehe I thought it was just me as well!


As for clutch, I use LB.. I can't use it when it's set to A.

Out of interest, who has the Scirocco R and who doesn't?

I was thinking of tracks to run last night and came up with a 'World Tour' idea, starting in Germany on the Nurburgring GP, through Europe, into America and then Japan and back to Germany to finish on the Nordschleife.

We could do 9 races, The 'Ring GP, Hockenheim, Catalunya, Silverstone, Sebring, Laguna Seca, Suzuka, Twin Ring Motegi and back to the 'Ring. Or would that be too many?

Any thoughts?
I have the "R"

Also I think Inifineon should be on the list, absolutely cracking circuit IMO but definitely agree with keeping the others, a nice even 10 sounds good hehe

We need more of these!

I was chucking a couple of tunes around Laguna Seca last night, I managed to get a GT and an R around there within .1 of a second of each other doing consistent 1:36.0s. I'll gift out the pair later to anyone who would like to try them.

I completely forgot about Infineon. banghead

You don’t happen to know what the upgrades were on that do you? I had a build for each at A575 and both were consistently low 1:36s, managed to get into the high 1:35s but couldn’t replicate it after one lucky lap!

I can't quite believe I have done this.. but I have just done a clean 1:34.585 in my tweaked version of fatty's tune on the R on Laguna Seca.

I just zoned out and got the track perfect..

Are you going to tell me the tune or do I still have to be kept in the dark?

What did you tweak on it Liam?

BevR, the upgrades were everything race but only a sport exhaust, intercooler and flywheel on the engine. Wheels are Wedsport SA70 in 19" and 255 tyres all round. PI is A585.

Bit more toe out and a bit softer suspension.
