Tuned for Drivng Force Pro at Laguna Seca on R3 tires.

Includes; an "oil change" to get the Hp to 401.
Gears by way of "Tranny Trick".

Ran 1' 22.512 on R3 tires with 401 Hp from a stock tune.

This car drives much like my Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5 - 16 Evolution II, the all Black "AMG Hammer", as it should. They are road and touring versions of the same car.
This car lays down better lap times as it stands now............ I'll go back and rework the "Hammer" after a while to bring it up to speed.

Considering this car for Nurburgring 24 hr Endurance.

Nurburgring Nordschleife

Post #1 - Updated 04/16/2007 6:14 PM

Nurburgring Nordschleife

Changes to setup for the 'Ring compared to Laguna Seca include:
....................Front / Rear
Ride Height, ...... 63 / 65
Final Ratio, ........ 3.750

Taking a look at this car for the Nurburgring 24hr Endurance,......... I'm impressed!
Extra ride height gives the suspension some room to move and keep the bottom of the car from scraping on the rough surface at The Nurburgring.

Ran 6' 40.649 on R3 tires with 401 Hp, 04/01/07.

VK1968, I am pleased you like the setup. I love sniping races from higher hp cars with a lower hp better handling car like this Merc. Seems you do to! Have fun racing, Brian

Great setup.

Just won Nurburgring Nordschleife 24 hrs. I drove it 90% A-spec.. took 2 weeks with work and other things.

I added Stage 3 turbo

Set the Ride Height to 68 / 65

Set final final gear ratios to 3.500

Set the downforce to 30 / 37

Easily won against the Audi Abt TT-R turing car by 1 1/2 laps. Best lap was 6:51.694.

OK, not a world record, but the way I drive, that was really good.

ekmon1582, This car would be great for the DTM. You just need to adjust the gear ratios for each track.

If you find that this car wins too easily, you may want to give the road version of this car a try.
