Tango Tuners Present: The OUTLAW

This RWD NO Aero Ford GT drives like  a dream – with handling more akin to an AWD car, this tune is a great one to pull out in the Online Lobbies.

Competitive in the Standard open drivetrain online and a beast in the new RWD hoppers.

I have run many top 1% times in online testing – the best of which is a 1.30.322 on Sunset Full – beating any time I can lay down in the PORSCHE Animal and placing me at ~800 on the LB with over 85,000 times posted.

Road America is getting a 2.10.512 time – I have a .200 faster time – but that is in an AWD Nissan GT-R!

Sebring Full is a top 1% 02:08.90, placing top 1,500 out of 506,000+ times posted

Silverstone GP is 01:54.85, although I never seem to get a REALLY fast time on that track – still top 1%

If you liked the Animal Porsche, you will Love The Outlaw!

A cracking paint by Liquid Design gives this car a menacing character too – the knowing eyes of the Outlaw stare down the opponent, putting fear in their bellies.

Just 10 k for the paint and 10k for the tune, this is a must have addition to your collection.

Merry Christmas From Tango Tuners!

UPS Have kindly offered to help deliver our gift, so here it is!

AWD, A600 997 Turbo, this car is tearing it up on the longer tracks. Tuned for sped with enough grip to hold the track, this car was specifically tuned to compete in a series of Endurance Races I have been entering with a group of friends, with all of us tuning 997 T’s and running a race series.

So far I have completed 25 laps of OLD LE MANS and won by over 15,000 ft.

Last night was Road America, 40 laps – I was leading the race and with the fastest laptime of 2.10.389, 15 laps in my ADSL disconnected – The Laptime held out ….

Even so, this car has proved her worth so I give her to the TM as a Christmas Gift!

I spent last night creating the custom Paint ( with Liquid out of RROD action ) and based on the UPS Porsche, I am happy with the results!

SO, Paint and TUNE free on my SF until the New Year!

LapTimes, most posted in race with no hotlapping!:

Tango Tuners Present: Porsche 997 GT2 ‘Animal Edition’

With the Online Domination of AWD, we have been determined to break the trend and deliver an RWD tune that can compete at the highest level.

This Porsche 997 GT2 has the ability to do that, even matching and in most cases BEATING the AWD competition off the line.

Hold the car at just over 4000 RPM and on the green, hit the gas – a quick switch up into 2nd and you are away, seeing the likes of the AWD Audi S5’s and Lambo’s appearing in your Rear View Mirror.

The start is literally only the beginning, with a smooth grip tune allowing you to flow around the corners and enough top end to cope with the longest of straights.

Evo Tunings  TUR8O SNAIL had this to say about the car “mighty fine car this one Kappa…..i enjoyed going toe to toe with it the other evening. This car took me totally by surprise! sitting at the start line on the front row next to DOA Liquid, me sitting in The Ripper and Liquid sitting in this Porsche…..lights went to green…..I got a pretty decent get-away in the AWD…..but to my pure astonishment, Liquid slowly but surely pulled away from me……..PURE INSANITY from a RWD car! This is a MUST have for anyone looking to break the mould of AWD!!!!”

As always, I post laptimes – but this is slightly different. I know liquid wont mind me saying he was not a fan of RWD – certainly struggled to deliver his times – but this car has changed that. Liquid has also posted top 1% times across multiple tracks – something I know he never though possible in a RWD tune.

So, onto the stats:
TOP 1%

Le Mans La Sarthe #338/248,000+ 04:13.965
Le Mants Old Circuit #340/ 23,000+ 03:51.545
Mugello #1165/171,000+ 01:54.547
Road America ~#600/100,000+ 02:10.549
Road Atlanta Full ~#1600 / 176,000+ 01:24.859
Sebring Full #1586/370,000+ 02:09.782
Sedona Full #1746 / 307,000+ 02:18.345

Tango Tuners – delivering Competitve RWD to the TM.

Tango Tuners DOA KappaTango won the 1st FM3 Tuners Shootout. The challenge was to tune an E class car specifically for Catalunya National Circuit, with Dougyt40 to run 5 laps in each car, best posted posted counted. 35 tuners enteredthe competition on th Forza Motorsport.net forums – the results were posted on the 5th December over at www.forzacarreviews.com

To celebrate winning Dougyt40’s 1st FM shootout, I have provided the winning tune, with its paint FREE on my SF.

I went for FWD, a decision I did not take lightly as I knew the AWD cars would probably have the edge – but she held out and did me proud.

I worked hard on the springs, to ensure that the car was easy to drive and allow the driver to get straight into setting laptimes, without needing to “learn” the car too much. FWD mainly suffer off the line, but as this was essentially a hotlap challenge, Lap 1 was not an issue for me in terms of a slow laptime.

Congratulations to all who entered – the competition was REALLY tough, with a virtual handkerchief covering the top times.

Hope you enjoy the car!

Tango Tuners Present: <Mechanoid>

When the car left the paintshop, she was pristine – then something awoke from within. The first run around Suzuka for photo’s was going well and then it happened.

A deep growl from somewhere under the hood, suddenly the power transformed and the burst of speed threw The Driver back into his seat. The approach to the first corner was terrifying – surely there was no way that this Transformed Beast would stick.

The machine was taking control, but The Driver was not going to let this beast run wild. With confidence and leadership, The Driver took over and the results were incredible. Pure Power in perfect harmony with Raw Machine creating a dream partnership.

The lap was finished. Mentally worn, but full of adrenaline, The Driver emerged from the cockpit to analyse the Damage – the Mechanoid had burst from within, tearing the paint from its shell.

The Beast had become one with the Machine, the Mutant was born. With the release so close, there was no time to repair – The Mechanoid was born.

This B500 Alfa Brera is a beautiful Grip tune from Tango Tuners.

A debut Build from DOA CobyDog, this car was then fine tuned by DOA KappaTango.  I am running primarily wins online in Muliplayer B class Hoppers, and posting top 1% leaderboard times along the way:

1.00.641 Mugello Club

Tango Tuners Present: Soul Of the Samurai

Tango Tuners are proud to Present Soul Of the Samurai. An A Class Nissan 370Z.

This stunning car has been beautifully painted by DOA Liquid, truely complimenting the Tune which lies within.

Beauty. Power. Balance and Control, all blended together to create a smooth grip tune to cut through the opposition.

Designed to compete at the highest level and with Audi domination in mind, the Samurai sports a AWD swap, but retains its smooth lines by being free of a Rear wing. Grip tuned, but with enough “feel” in the car to really push it to the limits, the Samurai will make you the envy of the lobby for both Tune and Paint.

The lb times are also testament to its control, with all posted during ONLINE Multiplayer games and all below are Top 1%, posted by DOA KappaTango:
