If someone could give me some ballpark lap times to set the laps, that would be very very helpful! :D
(As is well known, my lap times are definitely not always indicative of the norm. lol)

This is such a fun car, I can't believe people are not chomping at the bit to sign up for this. :lol:
It's no slouch! cc570 said it's because essentially it's a race car. Rally car I guess?

Yes, it's quite ugly I suppose. But hey, we like them looking dated. ;)
 
I'm in. Color TBA (to be announced, WTF is TBD lol?)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I guess the difference being...

TBD = To Be Determined or To Be Decided
TBA = To Be Announced ... makes it sound like you're deliberately keeping it a secret for a surprise. :sly: :odd: :mischievous:
 
Could we run a Weeknight event? Monday April 2nd maybe? 930EST is the earliest I can participate. Of course, I'll have to double check to see if I have an unmodded version of the car.

I'd also suggest an unsanctioned romp around the Toscana dirt track after the scheduled races. This is after all a rally car in street car clothing!

I know there ARE others interested in doing this.

I invite you... no... I ENCOURAGE you, chuyler1, to usurp any of the Sunday Tournaments set-ups, and make an alternate schedule.
👍 👍 :D 👍 👍

I may even sign up if it's possible for me!!

And I sanction using the quote button to steal the code/images (links)/format/etc... to replicate the event & change the pertinent details that need to be changed!! :D
All the testing & ad work done for you, and voila... ready-made event. Just add host. :D Salt to taste.
And all I'd have to do is add it to the list of VCRC events on the VCRC thread! :)

I love this car and I love the Mt. Aso track it's great for racing on. Fast, smooth, just a hint of elevation on a couple of the fast corners to keep you on your toes. Perfect for this car and most other vintage rides. I say we add this track into the regular rotation!!
 
I'm in for this, too. Don't have the heart to paint it so it's staying factory white on factory rims.
 
@ dmihaylov: I'll check. 👍
Please send FR to my alternate acct: PSN: amoreenabooboo
(since that's where I have many spare cars)

Tip: Always buy the vintage OCD (Online Car Dealership) cars. We use them lots. :)
 
10x for the tip I bought almost everything connected with this type of cars in the dealerships. But i'm just new in this club it will take me some while to make up with the cars.

:) Luckily, I buy them on 3 accounts. :D For just such occasion of new members without a big vintage garage. 👍

I love all Mt. Aso tracks, really. Even the New Ji-Feurre Pass. :lol: :lol:
But yes, this Wishbone Curve seems to be ideally suited to any number of cars of various powers.
cc570 has a knack for creating a variety of really good custom tracks. 👍
Alas, Mount TopMore is really my one & only 'masterpiece'. :lol:
 
It was in the OCD a few weeks back, so you may have purchased it then.
Otherwise, I KNOW I have one spare, with about 25,000 miles on it, if anyone needs it. But one would need to let me know a.s.a.p. & send a FR to PSN: amoreenabooboo and I would not be able to send it until morning (EDT - afternoon BST)
