It's been quite a while since I've uploaded any pictures, but I have been able to get some pictures from last Sunday's race. Enjoy!

Also later today I'll be making an announcement regarding the M3 GTR Challenge Saturday night.

I had just one thought going through my mind at that time; please be not on the driving line when I reach that point of the track

Took the F10 '10 out, did some minor tweaks, brake balance and anti rollbar and turned a 1:15.9XX. If I could put a full lap together might get down to mid 1:14's. Always seem to mess something up.

Let's dredge this up from a couple of days back... I just ran a 1:15.727 with the F2007. Like you, I'm pretty sure I can get into the 1:14's...

 

[Rallywagon]

Not sure who's around and down. But. Monday Mayhem begins in 15!

 

[Nexcalibur]

...so cat mouse in 75!

 

[zer05ive]

I'll be on in a few. I upgraded my PS3 and have completed the data transfer, but now I have to rewire everything in order to move the old one to its new location.

 

[dylansan]

Well, there wasn't much of a turn out, so everyone left. I'll stay and maybe we can find something to do. If you guys want to come on now you could.

 

[Rallywagon]

Hey guys. Just wanted to put it out. We had only 4 in the room as I write this. I'm stepping out. If someone wants to still run c&m. Give it a shot. But I think everyone's laid out from the holiday weekend. And this vet is now gonna be among them. Happy memorial day to all the snail vets and servicemen. Ans to all who have and still are serving. May whomever you believe in bless you.

 

[zer05ive]

Well, I guess we should've expected tonight to be slow for the same reason we decided to cancel last night's official league races. Make no mistake though, the holiday weekend is over after tonight so that means Tuesday Night Parity Racing will be in full effect tomorrow night! In fact, you should check out the discussion going on over there as it may may the parity racing even closer than it already is???

 

[dylansan]

Well, it's officially eleven and no one else has shown up. Time to hit the hay like everyone else.

A little off topic humor here, I am level 39 in my B ranking, and I want to be 40, so I set my guy up to run the Indianapolis 500, figuring it would get me good skill points, so I'm working around the house, and glance over to see its on lap 199 of 200, my Bob was in first place, I thought cool, I'll get some good cash out of this too, nice bonus. Well, as I'm looking from across the room, my Bob pitted, on lap 199 with gas in the tank, I ran over to the controller, but it was too late. He was 7th then, and had one lap to go, clipped a car and spun out on the last turn, now he's tenth, and I'm screaming cuss words at the tv, I guess he heard me, because he then proceeded to do a slow roll up to the finish line crossing it at 35 miles per hour in last place, lol. Thanks Bob

 

[dabneyd]

Thanks Bob

 

[Chiochan]

b spec= buffoon spec. my driver's are hilarious to watch. They drive into other cars when i say overtake, they cut corners, and apparently they are Genius because they never run out of mental strength.

I took GT5 out of my PS3 for the first time in a while and noticed the inside cover art to GT5. I would like to recreate the race pictured. It appears to be Tokyo 246, with 5 cars pictured. the first 3 are Impreza WRC 2008, Blitz Dunlop ER34 Skyline '07, HKS CT 230R '08. There are 2 more cars in the background that i can't make out. If anyone knows what cars they are and or would like to participate in this race please let me know.

Is your Bob's name Michael Andretti?

Wait, that's not funny.. He was my favorite driver back in the day..

It seems that no one has scanned this picture onto the internet. I guess I'll look at it when I get home.

 

[Chiochan]

I tried to find it online but can't find it anywhere. Zoom would be helpful. Unfortunatly i don't have a scanner.

 

[GlennGolfer1]

Sorry Chio, I have the XL version, and it just has a RedBull on the cover art inside, I guess you could take a pic and download it if you don't have a scanner. No?


Edit: if you have time to take a pic and post it I would gladly help you figure out what cars they are.

 

[tezgm99]

If it's the photo I'm thinking it is, I will be no help since it's less than a square inch in size on the back cover of my game and I can only see 3 cars (it's the one of the far left of this)

 

[Chiochan]

nope not that pic it's the other side. the inside cover (open case).

as you can see the black car center, rear, looks like a tuned S2000 mabye, as for the car behind the Blitz you can just make out the roof and it is distinct but i can't place it.

 

[Rallywagon]

This! Which is that!

 

[Rallywagon]

S2000. Not sure what's behind the skyline.

 

[Chiochan]

What car has black yellow and red looking at it from the front?

 

[Nicktune]

Look like the focus rally car to me.

 

[GlennGolfer1]

Nice find, that little yellow thing has to be a scoop of some sort, I'm online now looking at the pics in the game?

I think you're right Nick, if you look at his picture from the previous page there is a white speck where that thing to the right of the hood scoop is, and the yellow on the scoop looks like its curved like the rally car you suggested.

Amuse S2000 GT1

 

[Rallywagon]

well, now with all the cars figured out, how about this race? I believe I have all of them. But I would like to put dibs on the subie.

 

[GlennGolfer1]

Im not so sure that black car in the back is an amuse, when I blow it up on my iPad the front of the car where the emblem is looks like its in a cutout, not flat like the Amuse, I'm not really sure, the headlights look different too, I'm not sure why this car would be in that pic with the others but right now that car is looking like the Alfa Romeo 8c competizone 08. But I'd like to do more research to make sure

 

[Chiochan]

That's them for sure, makes sense too since 1 wrc car is already there. Good sleuthing! CSI would be proud. So now that that's all figured out anyone interested in this race.
TRACK:Tokyo 246
CARS: Subaru Impreza WRC 2008, Ford Focus RS WRC 07 2008, Blitz Dunlop ER34 skyline' 07, HKS CT 230R' 08, Amuse S2000 GT1
Tires:????
Laps: 20????

 

[Rallywagon]

its definitely the amuse. Heres a more front on picture.

The only reason it looks different is because the motion blur is distorting it. Look at the wing, as well as the in the grill, same license plate situation, and look at the canards on the right side of the car in the cover pic, very dark and hard to see, but these three are the biggest tale tell signs. And the cover picture is a bit squished/stretched.

 

[Rallywagon]

You know I am, I pick the the Scoob, however, if someone only has this or what not, I'll take the skyline as a back up.

 

[dabneyd]

I'll take the S2000!
