I've got a killer tune for the z/28, ill message you share code to try out. Next car you should do is the Nissan HR31 GTS-R, I've had some pretty good results with it.
If you don't already, it may be good to keep the power/torque band in mind when manual shifting. It seems like you are pushing to just shy of the rev limiter, and it looks like the power band is lower in the rev range. This is also one of the ways to "cheat" PI, by getting a drivetrain that doesn't perform as well when shifted at redline like an automatic and manually shifting the power band. The hemi dart is a great example of this. It peaks power at 5k-5.5k rpm, but redlines in the 7-8k range in stock form. Diesels are another beastly example, especially if you can keep them spooled or pre-spool them before exiting the corner, they can exit like a rocket ship when handled right.
Thank you for this! I guess I never really thought about it like that honestly, I wish there was a way to adjust the rev limiter in the tune settings. And I can see how all that time at redline can add up to lost time during a lap so I’m definitely gonna keep that in mind for the next time, thanks again for the tip!
@jordyboegsgaming772 You're welcome! I run Horizon most of the time so I just pop open telemetry and can get shift points figured out pretty quick, and this can also come in to play with gearing tuning too (online tune generators are AWESOME for gear tuning BTW) especially if you are looking to create a general lobby car to run on multiple tracks. Honestly I have never wished I could change the rev limiter though because once you get shift discipline dialed in, you never even use the limiter, but there are situations where you can still use that rev range despite being less than ideal in the power band, like cases where 2 corners are chained together and grabbing a gear turns in to a waste of time. I end up shifting by sound more often then not once I get it figured out. Just remember, each engine is different. There's some that running them in the red to the limiter actually is the faster way to go. Another fun note too, I use gear tuning on unruly 2wd high power cars (the TVR speed 12 is super bad about it) to get rid of those instances where the first few gears are useless, making 1st gear tall enough where you COULD spin if you tried, but 2nd gear bogs and hooks (the gear tuning apps have a 1st gear speed override for this exact reason). It makes it so that with some modulation you have a chance to keep traction in first, and it throws those extra gears in the back, giving you the option of some super close ratios if you want.
If you have a car you'd like to see me try out next let me know below!

@@kilroywashere9678 HELL YEAH I'm so down to try the tune, and noted on the Nissan
@@jordyboegsgaming772 tunes up under “All around C”
Integra Type-R PLZ :))
Love the videos Jordy. You should try the IROC Camaro, decent speed and excellent handling.😊
Rip pit crew

@@rjolly87 This is actually insane I had no idea you could get this precise in Forza
I tend to use the Boss 302 on most tracks in open class racing. Love my American muscle cars lol
I gotta give muscle cars some more drive time they’re so much fun to use lol
How did you make it weigh 4000lbs, usually you take weight out not add it
All that V8 powaaaaa lol
