Third times a charm
Back to the topic... Was going through Japan Hall before I got sidetracked by the Rallies but I figured it's time to dump what I came up with.
New Entries:
Japan Championship - Stock Toyota RSC for 200p across the board
vs. NSX Type R (starting 5th), WRX STi '02, RX-7 Spirit R, Skyline Vspec 2, and Legacy B4 Blitzen.
Japan 70s - Honda Life Step Van @59hp (dt/su ups, NA3, nitrous@75, 5kg ballast + had to vary auto tranny between 8 and 12 depending on track) for 200p in all
vs. 280Z, Galant '70, Lancer 1600GSR, Civic 1500, Mirage 1400GLX
Japan 80s - Stock Toyota MR-2 G-Lim SC w/S1s for 200p in all but Apricot (dropped the S1s to get 193p)
vs. Silvia Ks, Sprinter Trueno, Honda City, Honda Civic, Skyline GTS-R
Japan 90s - Stock MR2 Spyder '99 managed 200p at Grand Valley, Motegi and SS5 vs. Infiniti G20, Integra Type R, Mazda 323F, Silvia Qs Aero and CR-X SiR '90
Japan 90s (pt 2) - Miata S-Special '95 (w/dt/su ups, chip and racing muffler) for 200p in all vs. the same lineup as before. (Note: The S-Special is the one. Handling is fantastic vs. the 1.8RS which was terrible
)
SPECIAL CONDITION:
Forget that cheatin' RAM
These are all 200p entries except for the spec C which I'll mention later.
EASY- Honda Element (dt/su ups, NA1, racing muffler and
sometimes the chip depending on the competition). vs. the Lancer Rally car at the Canyon and Whistler, the Lancia at Costa and George V and the Audi quattro for the rest.
Fully loaded vs. a Skyline VS 2 Nur at Tsukuba
NOTE: Must lose chip for ice races... snow tires drop points for some reason
NORMAL - Honda Element fully loaded (dt/su ups, NA3, racing muffler and chip).
Capri, George V and Umbria Rev - + R3s vs. Lancer Evo 8 MR GSR
Umbria Fwd - + R3s vs. Impreza spec C
Canyon, Yosemite I & II and Alps F - Lancer 4 GSR
Tahiti - Lancer Evo 6 RS TME
Whistler - Lancer 2 GSR (had to drop muffler and chip!)
Chamonix - Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 (had to scale back to NA1, muffler and chip)
No, it's not good enough for Tsukuba but there are plenty of other cars for that.
HARD - The Element is no more... Long live the Element!
Umbria and George V - Lotus Elise 111R w/dt/su ups, NA1, sports muffler, chip and R3s vs. Renault 5 Maxi RC
Capri - 111R w/dt/su ups, chip and R3s vs. Impreza RC '03
Alps Fwd - RS200 stock vs. I*mpreza RC '03
And... that's that for 200p so far. I seem to be stuck (or just suck). The RS200 just doesn't seem like enough car for the rest. But, in the hands of a better driver...?
However,
Alps Rev and Yosemite I - 149p w/stock Impreza spec C vs. Impreza RC '03. You can easily add 200kg to make it 176p and it'll still win handily. Blew the computer out by 27s at the Alps Fwd while I was testing! But then I... uhh.. practiced that track quite a bit. Will see if I can get through the Canyon? And the ice races
EDIT: Almost forgot
NA Sports - Stock Toyota RSC w/S1s for 200p at Infineon,Trial and SS5
vs. Nissan 350Z, Camaro SS, Callaway, M3 CSL and Vette Z06. The 350Z broke free too early at Apricot and Motegi for me to catch up
Technically, I went against a harder lineup at Trial with a Zonda in the Pole just because chasing down the Zonda was FUN!
