4WD - STI Sedan '10 (472pp)

RWD - Amuse R1 (475pp)
MR - NSX RM (499pp)

All Japan +1 pp

1901 total pp


Excited about this line up. Hopefully it doesn't let me down. LoL it's fairly well balanced. With a strong MR and weak FF. I do not like FF, so I always run it on the low end. MR is usually my best drive so I favor them with PP. That Amuse R1 is a beast hopefully it doesn't disappoint. Haven't drive the Scooby in a bit, from memory it doesn't push like a pig.

Nice looking lineup. With you driving it I imagine it will be hard to beat.

One thing. We have not had enough buy in on the Bonus points to actually use them. I also wanted to make sure that you and others understand that would be a bonus to your total score not to the PP that you are allowed to run.

So with that being said you are 1 PP over which means you will have 1 pt removed from your total at the end of the night.

Star is also currently over at 1902.
 
I can switch it up just a bit. I had two different cars that were one or two PP under.

I'd rather be under then over. ;)


The VW Scirocco is 441 PP NBI with oil change. Can I use that at that PP?

I'm 99% sure that 441pp for the Scirocco will go up to 445 once it is broken in. 4pp is usually all you will gain in that performance range for putting the miles on. The higher value cars may go up a little more, like 5-7pp if the car is starting at 600pp.

Just do the B-spec endurance at Grand Valley, change oil and done.

On the NBI note, I broke in the NSX Type R '02 and it is 475pp. I had to change that in my line up to the NSX-R Concept '01.

Thanks for all the updates. I feel we are making good headway on the missing data.

I have a bunch of cars like these TVRs with 0 miles but I can not remember if they were OCD or prize. I need to run them in some races to find out.

Maybe it is worth revisiting the Bonus points. I thought it added a fun addition to selecting cars. Do people want to give it a try?

Is say its worth the effort. We go through a lot selecting the cars and having some bonus features to entice us will allow people to select with that in mind. Rather then just use the usually suspects. Aka cars that perform well for their perspective PP. ;)

There is problem of Ford and GM. AWD and MR isn't something they have much of and GM having none that I know of.
 
If we're going to attempt the bonus thing, maybe start it from next week since, I presume, the majority of us have already picked their lineup for tonight :)

Is your Evo IX RM actually at 511? Mine is 507 and swear I used a broken in car to RM it with.

Hmmmm
 
507 with 0 miles. My bobs are doing the grand valley endurance now so it should end up at 511

Game so screwy. Mine was 300+ when RM'd. So it does need broken in again after the RM. :/ stupid game.
