Deficit. Okay. I have ADHD. That right there should explain why I talk too much. :lol:

My son is ADHD, and I'm reasonably certain I was as a kid too (I grew up just as "ADHD" was first becoming a thing that my parents considered just an excuse they gave undisciplined kids) but fortunately, I've found that the "H" part tends to drop off with age.

Racing is good for him too... it's literally the only thing in the house that will hold his attention and let him sit still for more than like... 20 minutes at a time.
 
Same here. I find games a lot of fun. Plus, joining TRL has helped me with my attention span. Only thing is now I play too much. I'll stay up till 6 in the morning playing something. :lol:

Great race :)
Sorry for the bump at lap 10, lots of understeer there :embarrassed:

As I've said before, I don't see how 3 guys can race so close for so many laps and not have any contact issues. A few bumps along the way are inevitable and I noticed one that you received also from spyagent .... just close racing. The only reason I highlight stuff like that in the video is simply to add interest for the viewer .... nothing personal I assure you :dopey: People probably don't realize that I had to leave about 30 additional minutes of that close combat footage on the cutting room floor. It was obvious that we were all trying our best to leave each other room where we needed to. I've never seen such close racing like that spread out over so many laps. It was totally awesome :cheers:

"No racing until you clean up that cutting room floor! You've got so many minutes of close combat footage in there that it's a fire hazard!"

Challenge Accepted!

No abs, srf, tcs, etc.

It might be the race version of the car, but it still has street brakes. It won't lock up unless you press them too hard in a corner.

Phish, the challenge wasn't for you. I already know you're going to get a 2 minutes flat. lol

If you guys want to really train your focus, beat 2:02 on the new Vision GT seasonal. Also, do it without aids. Even abs. I'm up in 716th for now. :)

In all seriousness... do you (as in you specifically, not you universal) get better times without ABS? Because that's the one aid I never turn off... at this point I turn off all other aids just because I always want to feel like I'm practicing... but ABS I always have on 1. I turned it off once and my Avatar picture was the result.
 
Turtle Racing League - Enduro Racing Series

Please Everyone take a minute to read our new Rule that will help all of us


Gentleman Rule


In 2 Situations the Gentleman Rule Can apply, first off, when racing with a group of racers around you, and hitting someone off track, you are at fault, you must give their position back and wait up for them, even if it requires loosing positions. Second off, When going off track, and cars are around you, the on track cars have the right of way, and when it's the correct time, please cautiously return to track when it is safe too, even if it requires to brake or let off the gas pedal to allow on track racers past you. Failing to follow the Gentleman Rule, and getting a race complaint against you will lead to Stewards Penalizing you for not following the rule. The Basic Saying is, when you make a mistake, you are at fault and be a Gentleman about it. We do not want to be saying to everyone week by week that you cant go off track or push someone off track. We all make mistakes on track sometimes weather hitting someone off track, or going off track, but when happening, be a Gentleman about it. Please Know that Turtle Racing League Does NOT take penalty's very serious, we are all here to have a blast racing together. For the most part the first couple of times we will talk to you about what happened and make sure it does Not happen again. We all make mistakes off and on track, and we want to turn your mistakes into successful Racing by knowing not to do that again.



The Gentleman Rule is now under Policies in The O.P


Thanks!

I turn it off because it's more immersive. Irl, a skilled foot will stop a car faster without abs than someone mashing the pedal with abs. In game, it lets you brake while cornering more safely, where abs will train you to always be slowed down before the corner, allowing you to accelerate through/out of it, rather than braking through it. Basically, it depends on your driving style, what brakes you're using, and what your brake balance (pressures) are. Too much pressure = easy lock up but less motion to get the most stopping power, too little pressure and you'll never reach the potential stopping force. Has to be right in the middle to combine finesse and stopping power. THe new MB VGT uses street brakes, so it's actually a good place to start to see how the car reacts under high speed.

Something else to experiment with, then. Thanks.

EDIT: Although, it may not be ideal for my DFGT "If you breath on them they're full pressed" pedals.

This new VGT is something else. I can't spin this car out. It's too easy to drive. :P But please bring some interior to the car.
Click to expand...

I really wish I could get used to driving from interior view... but I'm pretty sure the only way I could do that would be to mount the screen so close to my face that my wheel ends up actually behind the screen...

Hmmm....
/me runs off to grab some design paper...
 
:lol: Eyes are going to be focused on the SCREEN the whole time. :lol: I actually did really good driving this car. It surprised me with how easy it was. There is no wheel spin, despite the amount of horsepower it has.
