That would really be cool. Do you have a PS4 and/or PCars yet? It feels real nice with the shifter.

I do .. got ps4 couple weeks ago .. ordered all my stuff to make that gimx adapter same day wheel died .. go figure , pcars with ds4 not so friendly lol

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Nah controller is really tough there. I read the general discussion thread often and there's always someone posting how the game is completely different once they got their wheel.

I've spent quite a while slagging off PCars, mainly for its godawful controller default, but I've just recently set up my T-150 and god dayum it's so much fun now. Absolute night and day. There should be a warning on the box - NOT FOR PAD.

Well, anyway, been doing quick race weekends at Laguna Seca in the BMW '78 320 Turbo Gr. 5, gradually increasing the AI level. God damn, it's so addictive. (And weird being able to keep the car on the road)

So yeah, thanks PCars, you were awesome after all

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Sorry for the double post but different topic.


I think this is what James May was doing after old new Top Gear ended.

It's called The Reassembler and he takes complex pieces of equipment and as it says on the tin, reassembles them. So far there are only three episodes but they are so fascinating to watch. First is a 1950s lawnmower, then a telephone, and an electric guitar. They're about 30 minutes long and it's essentially Bob Ross but for equipment. I love James May and the way he explains things.

"There's no other real way of checking it apart from assembling the whole thing and seeing if it works. So let's do that. *goes to put on crank shaft cover* It will be a satisfying clunking noise as this goes home. *clunking noise follows*"

He's adorable

2 double post in less than 5 hrs with no fish slaps ???!


Where is @STEAMER62 when you need him!

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Is it a double post if it's split between pages? It's not like you see two in a row as you're scrolling hehe

Made it with three minutes to spare. Good thing I've become a SNAIL junkie that logs in first thing getting home from work. Actually second thing, after pouring a cold one.

Voting for prize C has closed. We have 3 votes to freeze the car and 2 to freeze the track.

The car is frozen.

Prize B now gets to choose a track for the Puegot. @Ness has already won prize B this month so this prize is open to suggestion from his division.

If you raced in D1 this week you may make one suggestion for a track. The rules are the same as suggesting any other prize. Don't make multiple suggestions. Use the full name of the track. Don't edit your post. All suggestions must be made in the main thread.

The suggestion period will remain open until 11:59PM ET on Wednesday night. At that time, Ness will be on the clock to make a pick so please pay attention and be ready to go as soon as possible.

@JLBowler @Rednose58

That might be the combo that gets me to turn on the game and run some laps. Then again, I might take a look at the rest of the night and decide that golf is still more enjoyable.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

What kinds of combos do you like?

 

[turnupdaheat]

Ok folks! I have thick skin, let me have it. Lol. All the choices were very fun. Good luck this week.

Whatever about the car at least your decision was speedy. 👍

 

[Rednose58]

How long is a lap?

3.338 Km or 2.080 Miles

 

[Rednose58]

D1. Please send the Peugot to Autodromo Nazionale Monza

@JLBowler

 

[DesertPenguin09]

3.338 Km or 2.080 Miles

You know I meant the lap time, and I figured @WIDEeyedDRIVR would know since they tested it.

 

[Rednose58]

You know I meant the lap time, and I figured @WIDEeyedDRIVR would know since they tested it.

Haha... I know. Let's see if we can make a guess? I say she will go at an average of about 74 km/h around the track for a time of approx. 2:42.389

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I'm gonna go a bit less specific and say 1:47.xxx

 

[Ricky_Blayz]

Suggestion: Fuji Speedway F

 

[GTLehman]

I think it sounds incredibly fun!
How do I get the game to put a Union Jack on top of my refrigerator green mini?

It may or may not be even better if we could do original Minis...

[Raw10_2u]

I believe we were putting down laps of about 2:19- 2:20 range last night!

 

[turnupdaheat]

My track suggestion for the Peugeot is biased towards good track which is also a controller friendly option. There's quite a small number of tracks which will allow us to stretch the legs of this beast without running into the ds3 turning problem in high speed constant radius turns. From those that are suitable I think Monza would be the best option and, as @Rednose58 has already suggested it, my suggestion as an alternative is:

Autodromo Nazionale Monza '80s

 

[pakicote]

Track suggestion Circuit De Spa-Francorchamps

@JLBowler @Ness

 

[DesertPenguin09]

The choices so far for the Poo-Joe are really nice.

-Fuji F
-Monza
-Monza 80s
-Spa
-Suzuka 2014
So far any one of those would be amazing.

 

[singlepaddy]

I ain't got a vote but maybe Indy road course would be a good fit also.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

We were there recently but Red Bull Ring or Silverstone would be great too. Even Grand Valley

 

[src_ej6]

D1 track suggestion - Suzuka circuit 2014

 

[singlepaddy]

I may wrong but I think all 3 tracks you just mentioned have been used more recently than Indy.
