I like the car and thought about running it .... But I'm not haha
Abarth 500 '09
Indy Road Course 💡 you should run the tuner at one of the new RB Ring tracks (IMO).
...okay well this looks pretty boring except for 80's Monza I'm a fosho. I'm going to practice the tiny Abarth @ Madrid (looks like a pregnant roller skate) I'm a maybe for that. I'll pass on
@USERID_77a23 LOL all the people? That's rich har har. Am I missing something? Thank you for your combo it's refreshing. The Abarth isn't half bad and I like Madrid solely on the fact that we've never raced there. @Whitey093 I'm just tired of the wide open full throttle flat tracks we race week in and week out when there's at least a half dozen others we've never even touched. Your probably right about RB Ring but considering usually none but the four of us show up it wouldn't bother me in the least if we got into each other because I know w/o a doubt it wouldn't be intentional. But again who knows who will show up to race so point taken. As for Eiger last week? Please, I could tell that only Coach took it seriously. How do you think that made me feel? Other leagues are flourishing, creating new series and picking up new members and we're dying on the vine without even giving it a go. I truly believe there's so much more we could be doing with the STaR especially now since it's just us 4. Its not Gospel its just my opinion fellas.
I was ready to race eiger, my problem was I didn't read all the info and tuned an 80s car. So my apologies for not having the right car and fudging the combo
Whew! I went to bed worried and woke up stressed that my comments would not be well received. Thanks @Whitey093 With all of us on the same page hopefully we can get some activity going. 👍 We all just need to start thinking outside the box and consider what the average GT6 racer might find interesting. There's literally tons of possibilities. ie: exotic cars, new tracks, real life race series we could emulate etc. no idea is too crazy it's better than none at all with just the four of us trudging on in the same old rut. Besides I know I've gotten faster and there's no reason why I have to be last every time we race.
Hopefully a change of sorts will attract some beginner & novice racers. Which brings me to another idea I wanted to propose to Coach. I was thinking maybe we could take the STaR in a different direction streamlining ourselves in an effort to be more appealing to the new GT racers & first time leaguers. Maybe nixing heavy damage and increasing grip for Div 3 racers etc. There's probably more than one but I'm sure there's also a major reason why we've lost so many members and we're not attracting any new one's and it's up to us to figure it out.No worries bro you seem to be having a tough time lately and I can understand how that is. "A controller was stuck in the couch" was a good one but when I heard you say "I started the race in 4th gear" I laughed so hard soda came out my nose. I hope DESTINYKEYS didn't get too annoyed with us LOL. Since when are tuners considered whiners or did he say weiners?
I always used to just run automatic but now in a lot of races I run manual, slower cars even try the clutch. Makes for a lot more mistakes lately lol. I race with Destin for years. He knew something was going on those two races, talk about not being prepared
I've been messin with the clutch/H-shifter for a few months and I've found it's more about the track than anything else. Some tracks like Laguna you just can't use it and others (Brands Hatch) seem to be made for it but overall I lose a little time wherever I use it.I always used to just run automatic but now in a lot of races I run manual, slower cars even try the clutch.

Oh it's definitely fun, a pity that we have to give up speed to use it but the clutch is almost to much fun to leave alone. I guess it can only get better with time eventually they'll improve on it with better programming as its not very realistic lacking the true aspects of a mechanical clutch. Using a clutch should give you more control as it forces the car into the desired gear while the revs are still high. Not so in GT6 there's a lag and the revs drop by the time it disengages and the wheels lock and you spin out but it's still a lot of fun to play with LOL. I've never played Forza 4 but I hear theirs works much better
Lol. This is first day I've had a minute to look in on gtp. Yes it is... Not by choice either.I'm optimistic about this Sunday. Practice not so sure. But car then race. Lol. Miss you guys. I'm not gone entirely.Snail racing to coach, ... Are you out there ?
Don't tell me real life is taking over ....
