*Edit* OK I see it's any podium in any race. Does this mean each bet amount counts for each race? If so, I could thus lose more than I have in the bank if everyone I bet on loses. What happens then? Vinnie & Frankie turn up to breaka ma face? :nervous:

You've made a single bet on each chosen driver, and will win if that driver stands on any podium.

Using the bet on myself, you win if I somehow get 5 golds.
You still win (the same amount) if I get a bronze and 4 wooden spoons.
You only lose if I fail to stand on the podium at all.

Worst case, you will lose 305cr.
Best case, you will take home 467cr (171cr winnings plus your 305cr stake refunded).
 
Cool. You can tell I've never been a gambling man!!!

Given that my Mazda is currently about 100 - 150HP down on everyone else, I'd hardly make anything with a bet on myself!!!

So what if you have less power the front-runners? I thought that you prefered to have less power...

:idea:Less is more! Less HP = More FUN!💡

Just for accuracy's sake, my Fuji Speedway '05 GT time is mis-reported. You entered : GrumpEone 4'09.840 ; My actual time was : 4'00.635

It has no impact on points, only one less race that I finished last on. I only ran once on each race this week.



Also I am looking for loans/sponsorships totaling close to 10,000 CR, so I can get my car so that may be able to come close to competing, for these final two weeks, please help!!

Ninja Betting shop took 805cr and payed out 1,676cr, so is down 871cr.


Round 8 Odds:

Code:
Car-less	Lancer Evo VI RS 	'99	 1:5
Anderson	Chevrolet Camaro Z28 	'97	 1:4
Driftking	Nissan Skyline GT-R 	'91	 1:3#

SVX		Chevrolet Camaro Z28 	'97	10:1

# 1:3 will be rounded to 7:20 should I have to payout.

As always this is odds on gaining any podium position in any race this week.

You may place up to 5 bets - with a limit of 200cr per bet, and a total limit of 500cr. Please consider the odds before placing a bet or you might end up winning half-credits
 
So what if you have less power the front-runners? I thought that you prefered to have less power...

Maybe it's not that he doesn't have enough, it's that everyone else has too much. It's only fun if it's challenging, not a guaranteed loss. You know what he means.


Everyone seems to think R5's and 800 HP are the keys to fun in GT__. Boooorrrrinnggg.

Sorry, copy and paste wasn't my friend there. So much for no errors this week. :grumpy:

A shakedown run at Fuji 90's shows my car to be slightly faster than before, but much easier to handle. Maybe I should have gone for the suspension a bit sooner.

As for this weeks expectations after spending over 10,000cr - I'll be lucky not to slip further down the leaderboard.
 
I'd like to bet 4cr on Car-less and 200cr on myself, please.

Weekly purchase:

full LSD - 6600cr
sports suspension - 3200cr
carbon driveshaft - 3000cr

And I know it ain't much, Grump, but I figure every little bit helps.

*tosses Grump 1200cr*

Pay me back whatever you wish in a week's time. :)

Hmmm. Not many people left to take my begging bowl to this week.
Could really use 2506Cr for a Stage 2 Turbo. Honestly. I won't spend it on beer. Really.

Borrows 354 Cr from AndersonG22. Goes to the speed shop for Nissan and buys:
Code:
Turbine Kit: Stage 2                  12,500
Oil Change                                50

We have basically three tiers of racing going on to finish the 3rd Circuit.

Front Runners
Middle Roaders
Tail End Charlies

As a plug for a fellow racer, please loan GrumpEone some dough so he can go, go.

Grump will be getting the remainder of my dough after next week's final purchases...I won't be getting much, so he should have a sizable amount coming to him. :)
 
I've just paid €17,000 for a Racing Suspension kit for my R32.
 
Purchases for this week:

Stage 2 Turbo-13,500 Cr.
Donation to Smallhorses-2,600 Cr.
Donation to GrumpEone-4,000 Cr.

BHP up to 540 BHP.

Consider it a donation.

*tosses Smallhorses 2600 Cr*

No need to pay me back.

Thanks korza493.

always settles his debts, and as a latecomer to the party I'll make sure you're paid in full by the end of this round.
I don't expect to be competitive at the Sarthes in the final week, but it should give me enough for a good run at Nurb'. :drool:
 
Keep it, I'd rather give away some money and have some competition for the last round than buy a sports brake kit.
 
Thanks to korza493's donation I have installed:
Turbine Kit: Stage 2 for 13,500Cr on my RX-7.
Oil Change 50Cr.
Now have 426 Horses to play with.

As I have a 44Cr balance remaining, I'll bet 44Cr on myself! :D

Times sent.

The AI is so hard to work with!

My Report of Suzuka:

Had to do this one four times, and even then, it was very dirty. I accidentally went off track a bit (four wheels I think, because of me going too fast) I come back on, and I get punted by a Corvette and got taken off track again. 1st to 5th :grumpy:. So I get up to this corner (3 corners from Casio IIRC) and the Corvette falls off track does a complete U turn in front of everyone! Ended up finishing 4th :grumpy:.
 
I bought:

Oil Change - 50Cr

This is hopeless. How many BHP more your cars have. I thought that this competition was for less powerful cars like the Sunday Cup itself. :indiff:
