Hey I'm new here:D

I just wanted to ask a quick question, is 8.563 a good time for the Gallardo on lvl 8? I usually end up around late 8.560's I also win just about every race I play, both in the Pro League and F2F, but I know they are recorded, that's why I ask :)

Awesome game, keep up the good work! BTW my name is also Skau in-game if anyone has raced against me!

PHixation speaking of humbling experiences... i have been racing my ferrari on level five between 14.301-.310 and hadnt lost a single time all the way up to a 4100 ranking... and you just beat me twice running an m6 around 14.275. how did you set your m6 up for that??

Ya thats my newest toy. To be honest, I just kind of threw it together and seem to have gotten real lucky with the settings. I have to believe that there are faster cars in level 5, but I just havent run into them yet.

The settings arent anything special...

Motor - 4
Turbo - 5
intake - 4
N2O - 4 - 3 sec@100%
Weight - 5
Tires - 5

I messed with the gearing a little to keep the car in the powerband and 6th gear is at .89. I hit the N2O when I enter 3rd gear.

I suspect there are better settings than these since I only spent about 10-15 minutes setting the car up, but so far it hasnt lost. There still HAS to be way faster level 5 cars than this one, and I expect to be beaten by one soon. When I do get beaten i'll probably mess with the car some more and try to get more out of it.

Best time so far is a 14.25 something. If someone really wanted to mess with the M6 I think it should run at least in the 14.19s if not faster.

See ya on the track Lubond!!

Ha, I've raced you a few times. I hate your new PB. Makes my 13.186 looks like crap. I'm S197.

Hey S197.....I actually do remember racing you. I have an older 1989 Saleen Mustang so your S197 name caught my attention, and I was thinking maybe you owned a S197 Saleen.

Either way 13.186 is really good for a Level 6 599....to be honest I dont see many people running that fast.

Hope to see you out on the track again!!
 
I have the same car and mine runs mid 12's consistently i have everything maxxed out and i tuned the final drive you gonna have to play with it i can't/wont give u exact gear ratios lmaooo u might be head up with me one day ..........."mellowmadness" 12.51 is possible with this car scratch that i just ran a 12.49 and got beat by a 12.42 player name "dargie" same car back to the drawing board loll me and u both

Phixation,

I am currently seeing you on my phone at spot #5. I swear you were not there earlier this morning. Maybe the leaderboard is buggy. As stated in an earlier post, I once raced someone with enough points to be on the leaderboard, but their name wasn't there.

I'm hoping DragRacer comes back. It would be interesting to hear if he was actually racing a Ferrari 599 on Tuesday @ 5pm Eastern. My guess is that since the Face-to-Face is based on recorded runs, that they are doing the same for Pro-League.

Still trying to get my Ferrari 599 to run faster than a 12.421 on Level 7. I'm tempted to totally trash my existing tune and start again from scratch with a different final drive ratio.

Is there a better launch technique than starting off in 2nd? I can't seem to find one.

Edit: It appears I can shave some time off my 0-60 by launching in 1st.

I can vouch that the pro league is legit. me and my bro was racing against eachother and everything came up same on both of our phones

The tuning is great. Trying to tune it yourself to get all you can out of the car is why its so fun. I don't know why anyone would want to just use the settings someone else figured out. I was going to at first until I learned how to do the tuning now, now I don't even read the stuff people post about what gears they have cuz I don't want it to be given away.

Yeah, I drive an 05 GT. Finally down to running 13.16X consistently. Best so far is a 13.159. How you can get down to 13.059 is still a mystery. I'm sure launch technique is a big part of it.
 
It's funny how this game has bullies in it, though its not on purpose. You can be the fastest car in the game, then a faster car comes. You start coming in 2nd, loosing rank and leave.

I've been on both sides. Been bullied a few times, but most of the time I am the bully. It was the funniest when I first started lvl 6. I had my 599 in pretty good tune in lvl 5, so when I went up to 6, I was beating 3-4000 ranked people almost every race. That had to suck for them, loosing rank to a lvl 6 noob.

What are you running in the 1/4 with your 559? I haven't lost to a 559 in the 1/4 with my Lambo for weeks. Now that they added tuning the 559 has no chance in the 1/4.

I average 8.544 in the 1/4 with the green lambo. Others are now getting as low as 8.527, I can't figure out how the hell they are going that fast!

I also got the green lambo and i've buyed a tning package, but i have no idea what to do with it could you give me some help?
 
Level 9 zonda r running consistent 7.86s in quarter..any body have a tune that gets that a bit lower..my mind can no longer tweak this thing on it's own..I have seen someone in the high 760s
 
I don't get how to tune the cars, I have the M3 fully built (so a lvl 4 car). I seem to be stuck at 9.8 1/4 mile speed, I see people at 9.7. I tried tuning the car and seem to make things worse (10.1). How can I get the car to not spin off the line and not peg the tach in the final gear?
 
Hello everyone! I just found this forum and I love the game. I have a Venom GT that runs consistant 7.44's and I just bought a Bugatti Veyron. I'm in the process of upgrading the Veyron and would appreciate any tuning help. Thanks in advance for the help!
