It's times like this that I hate working permanant evening shifts. Would love to have joined this one.



ps I have uploaded the numberboard (less the 6) on my SF if you want to use it.
Maybe we can work something out on a Sunday if people are okay with it. Anyway, we need to get more people before we can sort that sort of stuff out.

The plan was that if we had enough people, I'd give everyone an assigned number, put your number on a bit of paper, put them all in a hat or something and then randomly pull them out - kinda like a lucky dip so it's completely fair! smile

Hairy muff, I was thinking that realistically that could end up with a team such as you and chuck, which whilst "fair" because it was randomly drawn from a hat, ruins the series when one team walks the whole series (no offence to you an chuck btw you are both just tooo bloody fast hehe)
Chuck is a hell of a lot quicker than me! Anyway, if something like that happened then I would change that around because obviously two fast people in a team, as you said, would walk away with it. I'm just off to do some testing to see what would be a good upgrade set up - hopefully Fatty will join me after his race because I need his tuning excellence!

Sorry mate, I didn't see this until it was too late last night although I think you're thinking of the wrong club leader hehe I'll be around tonight at somepoint to get some tuning in if anyone else is interested.
You did an awesome job of tuning those BMW's for Alex's BTCC championship so I have no doubt you can tune anything else!

I realised that the Scirocco R is a DLC car so we need a tune for a Scirocco GT as well if you're up to that? Get a bit of a mixed grid going on.

Due to random working hours i won't be able to take part but i'm more than happy to collaborate on a tune or do something for you as a non participating neutral kinda thing.

Bit of advice though, don't go too far above B500 with this as it'll be more fun for anyone who maybe isn't as talented as the rest of you!
Well we need a tune for a Scirocco R and a tune for the Scirocco GT so they're evenly matched. Fatty has done one for the R, but as I'm banned, I can't accept the tune so I have no idea what PI and lap times it can do.

Liam said he will test them out some time this week to see if they're okay and we'll go from there smile

We need to keep them as even as possible so it's not unfair on people who don't have the DLC.

I've had a little play around and I've got them within .1 of a second of each other.

I shouldn't worry Andy, it'll take that long to sort the finer details out.

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?
Sounds like a good set of tracks to me! biggrin

I think given the same PI they should be similar, i just had a quick go with A585 and both were 1:35.5 to 1:36 on laguna. Were you going for any mandatory upgrades or just a PI cap?
I was learning towards mandatory upgrades so only the tuning was different (to make it more fair for everyone).

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
I will, but you'll have to go through them manually with me boxedin

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..
Sounds like we've got our Volkswagen R tune then!

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

Liam kept refusing to tell me frown That would be brilliant if you could go through it with me tonight, though! smile
