My heart is in it, but I really need to turn some laps and make sure I can keep it on track and competitive. What kind of specs are you planning?

To be honest I haven't so much as driven a single mile in the FGT. But I was thinking full power, tire choice open and TC allowed.

Okay, so I'll get some laps in this weekend. If you're around this weekend lets try for some online practice.

Thanks Dude, that's definitely helpful!

Afraid I won't be around this weekend though.  Going to the beach for 3 days  :jimi:

I'm sure we can find another time soon though.

I ran a few laps at Monza, managed a 1'24.0xx. I should have been in the mid 23's, but I choked @ Parabolica. I ran in Arcade TT mode, not online with tire wear so I do not know what that will be like.

Thanks for the tuner links Dude!

I ran online (practice) for about an hour last night.  Tinkered mainly with the downforce and gearing.  My best times were high 1:24's.  I had difficulty getting the best line at Parabolica as well - plus I felt like you have to be extra careful getting back on the throttle on the exit of that complex.  More than once I oversteered off to the left wall.
