Use this for the premium sports lounge and the supercar challenge. It gets loose under heavy braking and loses traction if you mash the throttle before you pass the apex. The stock gearing is ridiculously tall so the acceleration feels sluggish, but it isn't. You don't need lightweight stage 1 or the racing chip to win the two series I mentioned above, but I didn't know that when I set the car up. Just get an oil change. I recommend buying the racing transmission and increase the rigidity, because the car will be easier to control and you'll be able to use your sixth gear(top speed is reached in fifth 500rpm shy of redline). I don't understand why all of the American cars have such tall gearing. If you buy a $150,000 supercar I'm pretty sure you don't care to much about gas milelage. I set the car up at Opera Paris and did the rest of the fine tuning during the supercar challenge. I won all of the races in the above series by at least 10 seconds. This car works really good in B-spec to.

Power to Weight Ratio: 2.280
400m: 10.616@136mph
1000m: 19.053@177mph
Top Speed: 215mph

Opera Paris: 1'26.041
The 'ring: 7'07.008(I went off the track three times)

I'll try to update this later, please you have any comments or criticisms tell me, I'll be happy to try out what you changed.

Hey, I monkey'd around a little with this set at el capitan and liked it enough. Thumbs Up

I must be a retard Confused

but I can't enter the lounge races with it, is it an 05 gt? or the concept. Don't know why I'm having this problem.

Hye kissmyexhaust,

I'm afraid this setup does not solve the problems experienced on the GT '05.
I used racing tires instead of sports tires. For more grip and consistency is comparisons.
The rear end still spins out uncontrollably during braking turns.
The TCS keeps coming on and off during high speeds.

It's not your fault, just something weird about this car.

Aspen- The is for an '05 Gt. You have to use sports tires for the Premium Sports Lounge. I don't know if this works for the concept. Is that thumbs up a vote?

Fumes- Thanks for checking this out. Polyphony really screwed this car up, the real car is amazing. I couldn't find a way to fix the rear end, but its fun to drive though. I use the DS2 though so I'm wondering if that's why the car doesn't seem as bad as everyone says it is.

When driven properly a 911 can do magical things...

I use the DS2 as well as a wheel. I use the wheel on days when I'm not too lazy to drag it out of storage. Smile

My setup for the 05 GT has minimised the rear spin and throttle bouncing. Not eliminated completely but minimised. Check it out.

Alright, I had to buy one because the one I own (won at the sport lounge) could not inter the race wtf? pd butchered this car in many ways, however I still like it. The rear end is not too loose for me, however the car comes with a full custom lsd as fumes suggests on his post thread,just raise the decel value. I ran without a wing or racing breaks, I softened the rear springs a little and raised the rear hight by 5 tics.

So now Thumbs Up
