Quiet right :nervous:
I'll give it one last shot at 53 then it's movie/bed time...still recovering from celebrating the 4-0 (!!!four to nil!!! sorry to rub it in CT)
 
Just in case the other replay isn't working 👍 Someone's informed me there's a corruption of data issue.

All the best

I was in last night for a couple of races but found myself going backwards at times while a stray Clio would would not be so forgiving. Had Fun with Twistybits and Synwraith but I'm just having trouble keeping the 512 on track. I tailord a nice tune for my driving style but more practice would help and less fustration.

I'll see you guys later on this week if I have the motivation for it.
 
I've never done any of the race events on here, but the 512 is what I've used in the 550 Suzuka races. Judging by the times you guys have been able to set, I don't stand a chance of winning. I usually run around 2:20.
 
sorry ren for intruding on the race with the wrong freaking car.....lol Trying to hunt down a tune now so i can join in on the fun.

No worries, as per PS message: WE where on the wrong schedule so you where not intruding anywhere 👍 And thanks for all the waiting, you don't see sportsmen driving Clios all that often ;)

Had a couple of fails but also a lot of good races tonight with the usual suspects! Thanks! :cheers: More this week 👍

It's not about winning :D It's about having fun 👍

Thanks to all the guys for the great racing today and tonight. Way to many to mention but you know who you are. Great to see this event going again 👍

Thanks for that race Crazy, Rutter, Twisty, iPlume and Eriba. A bit close and personal at times, and is everyone I guess cool with the practice of slipstreaming and then pulling back in front of the driver you just passed, immediately before a braking zone?

The slipstream in this car is mental :scared:

I did that slipstream maneuver in an earlier race with the 512BB going into First Turn and I went all the way through just using the brakes and a bit of countersteer on the exit of the corner. I thought I was going to end up off the track with all the speed I carried down into the turn.

Just thumb back one page and pick up Synwraith's tune. Quite awesome, in the right hands. 👍👍 And, my thanks as well to everyone for a fun day of racing!! :)

I think that's directed towards me.:lol: my bad

It isn't just you, I noticed it from a few different guys and not just in this event. Like you saw yesterday at 130R, it's not always the smoothest way of making a pass 👍

All the best

Sending out some friends requests now ;) need to know who's hooked again and around. Got some stuff to sort but will def be in for a few a bit later :)

Hope to see you out there :cheers:

Edit: good grief! Last time I'm changing my PSN id for a while. Amazing and wonderfull to see how big the community is, but a pain if you start off on noob level again :lol:

WOW! OMG, I'm three second off pace. I guess I need a lot of practice with this thing.:scared:

LOL, I hear you. I'm 1.5+ secs off pace, but I've already had plenty of practice so there no more hope for me. I've accepted that it's down to lack of talent. :lol:

Awesome lap Eclipsi :bowdown:
 
I tested out the tune that Synwraith posted and I'm closer to 2:18 now. I'm not very fast through the S curves though.
 
Hey Maz, those toe settings on page 36 look a little wacky! You sure they are in the right order or the right sign? Got down to 16.2 a few days ago but I've ruined my tune since :( Will give this a try. With brakes at 4 though I'll definately have a stab up the inside for casio next time I see you ;)

You're not the first person to ask about that, so I will check again in a sec and then edit this post accordingly 👍

Yep, + front, - rear

Aw you're just sore about last night :D

Ha Ha, this is going to sound like the worst excuse ever but the second half of last nights race my washing machine went on high spin so I effectively had no sound. I really need to hear the engine note to go full tilt! Gonna spend an hour or so getting my ride right, then I'll join for a few.

No, you're absolutely right about the engine note. It is the worst excuse ever :lol:

I had some fantastic races tonight with Rutter and i-Plume, especially in the last one me and i-Plume were exchanging places about 3 times per lap! :dopey:

Also, thanks for the tune Maz 👍 My best is a 16.5, with a few tenths left I think, but you and Ramon are just on another level!

By the way, I'm using my alter ego JetPack01 because I can't sign in on my other account :grumpy: I'll be on again tomorrow night, see you then :)
