Turn 10 Community Bounty - Voodoo That You Do

A little late posting this, but there is a new T10 CBH Event.

The bounty is, according to phRED, the fastest driver at T10 and he ain't lyin'.

Christian(VoodooUomo) has posted a 1:54.113 to date and is looking to get into the 1:53's.

While beating him outright might be all but impossible for us non-aliens, there may be another way to score a unicorn.

But beating me won’t be your only way to receive a unicorn. I also have a side question for you. I will read all the answers (pinky promise) and send out unicorns for the best answers. The question is:
What kinds of things do you shop for the most on the storefront and how do you usually find your purchases?

But wait, there are more ways to win unicorns. Since this event allows tuning, and I’m very pressed on play time as I work my butt off to ship Forza Horizon to you in less than 2 months. I would appreciate a little help with finding the most effective tune for the job. If you make one, stick it up on the storefront with the words ‘voodoo bounty’ anywhere in the description and a little description of how it drives or what kind of lap time it achieves. If I find and like your tune I’ll be more than happy to send you a unicorn for your efforts.

This one caught my eye.

One more way to win the bounty:
If by the end you're anywhere in the top 500 *and* are the fastest person in that specific car you'll get the bounty.
The tuner of that car, if different than the driver, will also get the bounty; so share those tunes.
So more reason for everybody to try out something a little different other than the F40.

I've run a 1:55.352 in the DirtT tuned F40.  Question is, can I beat that time in a different car, be the fastest in that car and stay in the top 500?

That's an interesting challenge.

IIRC the restrictions were S class and weight >= 2400 lbs, but was the year <= 1992?
If it qualifies and the ungodly amount of push can be dialed out, I wonder of the Squire can run a 1:55.2?

I might run a few more laps in the F40 to see if I can break into the 1:54's but I'll have the entire month to do that since I'm nowhere near VoodooUomo to earn the bounty.
 
For kicks and giggles I did try tuning a couple of oddball cars to see if any had the potential to get into the top 500.
 
Tried the Squire, Fiero, De Luxe Coupe and the 82' 911 T.
The Porsche's got potential, but I can't get the balance right on the handling and the gearing needs tweaking.  Things I just don't have time to fiddle with this weekend.

Voodoo in the 1:53's now.

Our Alien driver just got into the 1:53's with the DirtT F40 (he's been running th GTO), so the tune is capable.

phRED had said all along that this was going to be to regain some "honor" for T10, and they were putting up their best driver. Well, I'm not so sure what it did other than for people to say, "Heck yeah--the game creators have a Top 50 driver!"

Anyway, there will be another T10 Bounty Hunter next week--another chance for a Unicorn. By all accounts, that's going to be a lot easier--Voodoo says this other guy is Top 5000 rather than Top 100 like him.
