Is the regular Ford GT allowed?

 

[Wolfsatz]

The Zonda is also a race car!

We should keep it at the Pony and Bull level .. Never seen a Zonda on the street!

 

[Dragonwhisky]

The pictures in the line up post are an awesome idea! 👍

Might be a good idea to make them smaller or consider deleting them once that week is over. Just to save on load times.

Yea that's what I'm in.

Schmiggz if you are gonna drive a zonda just make sure it's not the zonda R

 

[Wolfsatz]

You better practice pratice practice.... The Zonda at Top Gear would be a B**ch to race...
The Aston already requires a lot of throttle comtrol.... Kudos to ya of you can make good lap times!

I'm gonna drop the Iroc and Cammer for now. The two are ridiculously off pace.

Definitely using the:

04 Corvette - 585pp this was my initial choice

Now to find a suitable 525pp car. 10 Camaro most likely but I want to use an old muscle car. Trying the Shelby GT500

-------------------------------------------------
Ok after several laps and several cars I've Madeira final choices:

2010 Camaro SS - 525pp

2009 Corvette ZR1 - 585pp

Bring it on Ricer Boys!!!

Owens will you be on later tonight? I definitely need to practice some and need comparable lap times.

Is it set in stone that we are running Top Gear Test Track? I sure hope not.

 

[DriftinAssassin]

Btw guys, im changing my cars for RUFTARN

525- RUF BTR
585- Nissan GT-R SpecV

 

[Wolfsatz]

Does new PS3 have a CATV connection available? Or did Sony make the same mistake aa the WiiU in forcing to run wireless?

 

[TMoMoney]

I would love to join RUFTARN if there's room for one more in the imports team

525 - BMW M3 '07
585 - RX-7 FD '02

 

[martin20az]

RUFTARN: I would like to drop my current cars and go to
SVT Cobra R 525pp
Viper ACR 08 585pp

This is my final line up

Yes sir and I honestly agree about the TGTT. Not feeling it. Hard to track to "race" on. It's a time trial track but ill go with it if so.

Yes it has hardwire hook up. Only way to go IMHO.

 

[DriftinAssassin]

Bring it on Ricer Boys!!!

Ricer Boys? Sir, I would kindly like to point out the rice has nothing to do with racing. Of course, I would expect "rednecks" to understand "racing" since they only know how to go in a straight line.

 

[Schmiggz]

Is the regular Ford GT allowed?

Obviously

Wolf... its gonna be very hard for u to see a zonda on the road unless you go to europe cuz no one exporting it to north america

TMoMONEY, welcome in. Dangerzone had to quit and exosphere never answered the invitation so, you're in.

LoL do you know what kind of car I own in real life?

My slow ricer junk:

 

[LondonDTM]

pfff. it's not even an FQ520.

 

[OwensRacing]

pfff. it's not even an FQ520.

??? FQ320 and FQ400 never heard of a FQ520.

Those rating are bhp and not whp too.

I'll be looking to make around 500 AWHP when it hit the road. 98% complete. Lacking time to finish it. (Need to cleanup garage and build a few things) I'm just not in a hurry. Project stretched out and now it's just gonna wait.

So in the end I'd have like a FQ650+ bring it!!


I'd love to make an attempt at that show if it was ever recorded in reasonable distance from me.

 

[DJones]

Hey car connoisseurs and Team mates, someone recently said that they were good at tuning. Any help with tuning the Top Gear Force is appreciated.

Lotus Esprit GT '00
Aston Martin DB9

You're in luck! I've already got a pretty wicked db9 in my stable! It fits the 585 class nicely.

 

[Schmiggz]

Well not strictly true. Check out this garage in Socal

Does life get better than this

 

[DJones]

I'd like to add that I also like spa for the neck v tuner shenanigans. To gear is cool, but I see a lot of troubles coming from the first corner. It may only be 1 v 1 but it only takes two to tumble.

I was just kidding. I love it. I'm always watching EVO's on instagram.

Yes, I know how projects go trust me. Once I get a new DD I'm just gonna quit with the 1.8t stuff and S4 swap her. It won't be til I find a new job though

 

[OwensRacing]

If race is Friday night EST. I'll have to withdraw. My Friday and Saturday nights are spoken for. I've got every day during the week and all day Sunday.


As for modern car picks. I think the PP matching has led to folks not being able to swallow using a car 3-4 secs slower. :/ I tried many and they all blew except for the 69 Camaro. Didn't try any Dodges. I'm not a fan.

Thanks! Thought about doing it a while ago, but dropped the ball.. I definitely do plan on removing the large font and the pictures as each lineup goes "red", which indicates it's an old lineup. Anyone think we should include a picture of the track for each round next to the picture of each car? I'm thinking that might be a bit much though..

Another idea is just to have the picture of each car taken at the track it's going to be raced on. Better yet, have the car positioned at the most recognizable or iconic part of the track. For example, if the combo was at Laguna Seca, the car would be in the foreground and the corkscrew would be in the background. Also, a lot of tracks have the name of the track on a huge sign either over the track or alongside the track. Lots of possibilities there.

For sure. When does the race start? And I don't really have all the tracks. I might have to seat out some races.

 

[albteman015]

Anybody wanna hop in D1 and run some laps?

Let's do it

 

[Dragonwhisky]

Something along these lines?

Just have to size both car and track pictures. Not sure if you can do that in the board code. Or maybe someone with leet photoshop skeelz could overlay one on the other?
