600cc Spring Challenge *UPDATE*

[corn13]

random thought - im bored of using practice for the race and i hate doing the math. so would you guys like to try something different for the last round? i looked for trial mountain, but, it wasnt available for racing 600s and im not even gong to try for Citta di Aria. however, if you guys are interested valenica is the tt world series and the ai often use bikes like the xjr1300rm so our bikes should be able to handle them.

interested?

So are your saying we won't race Trail Mountain and Citta di Aria and skip straight to Valenica using faster bikes instead?

 

[[empty space]]

no, well still have the races at trial mountain and citta as normal, but, instead of using practice for the race at valencia. use the race in tt world championship (challenge?) since the 600 rms can enter that race. that way the game will give us the final time as well as tyre wear. having ai (though they are annouying) will also give a better feeling of racing instead of just hotlapping.

 

[corn13]

ok i'm game sounds great

heres my trial mountian times. the cbr600rr rm provided to be much more fun here than the 999r rm did.

bold is my warm up lap 👍

saspo - if i was flirting with getting a 1'32, im guessing you were around the 30s?

 

[saspo]

empty- No 1'30s for me on this track, my best single lap is a high 1'32, gonna try another set sometime today and see what I can come up with.

Running the final race at TT world series is fine with me, I try to pass the AI clean but man, they lay on the brakes at such odd places, it's hard to avoid their rear tire sometimes

👍 i finaly managed a 32.7, but, i ran out of curb exiting the second to last corner then entered the final chicane too late and cut accross the grass.

as long as you arent at fault with the ai, then, it wont be a problemn 👍

[[empty space]]

haha ... citta is the smaller one without all the jumps, yes? if so, it wont be so bad, but, the longer one with stupid placed jumps is just ... silly.

 

[corn13]

Sorry guy for not turning in my times we had a bad storm here on the east coast that knock the power out so if you will don't except my time I understand.

heh. if you guys kept any fastest lap runs saved, ill gladly make this a 1 lap sprint race

 

[[empty space]]

had a clean race going, execpt for a crash (or two) on the first lap and starting going faster with each lap and i was clean up until lap 6 when i crashed at the first chicane

i was in the 1'41-43 range

 

[[empty space]]

im starting to think i need to dnf myself because i cant get more than 3 clean laps strung together

 

[[empty space]]

yeah, no time from me this round. even backed off from my 1'39 pace its too easy to make a mistake here and any mistake means kissing a wall.

dnf for me then

 

[saspo]

If you want to make this a one lap time trial, thats fine with me, this track is brutal with the more powerful bikes. Who is the dummy who suggested this track first in week one?? OH YEAH it was me!

 

[[empty space]]

well, my fastest lap is a 1'39.419 iirc. if corn agrees as well, then 1 lap it is or else wed have no clean runs :|

 

[saspo]

my best is a 1'40.614, if Corn wants to submit 5 laps then I'll take a DNF as well, just ran out of time to get 5 clean ones in.

 

[[empty space]]

heres my replay if your interested:

click me!

 

[corn13]

I have to agree I can do about 2 clean lap then I either hit a wall or the bike bounce because of the curbs/sidewalks. So heard is my time for

Citta di Aria in the Ninja zx-6r #55

Lap: 1'42:419

Better luck in next weeks final race.

 

[[empty space]]

👍 close race this week.

the next round should be fun, just remember that this race will be in tt mode > tt world series > valencia. no qualifing

Watched your replay [empty space], smooth like butter:tup:

If you have any of your 5 lap sets still saved I would definatly check them out, I like to watch replays from pro/mt FC off riders, especially consecutive laps.

Good luck banging with the AI on Valencia guys.

 

[[empty space]]

ive all of them execpt infineon iirc. when i get around to it ill pm you a link to a zip file with them

 

[[empty space]]

yup, the ai wasnt a problem. with the fastest ai being on a mv f4 rm and on pole, i still won by 12 seconds on hard tyres. you might want to try mediums because the hards were just starting to go yellow at the end of lap 6 and lap 7.

 

[[empty space]]

12'03.477 on mediums with a best lap either a high 1'41 or a low 1'42

Its been great racing with u guys for the last 10 weeks. We have some great races and so bad ones, but it’s been at least a learning experience. I hope that the next TT or GT for PS3 will have some kind of “gamecard” and we will be able race together again. Or at least bump each other off the track. It’s be fun doing this and I wish more people would have suck it out. But, three was great nobody was never off the podium.

And for the final time in this Championship my time for Valenica in the Ninja ZX-6R #55

Total Time: 12’07:094


And if you guys have an Xbox or planning to get a PS3. My Xbox gamertag card whatever is the same Corn13 and I will use it for PS3 as well so just seen me in invite I’ll be happy to race.

 

[[empty space]]

👍

woohoo, we knocked you off the top podium saspo

are you guys doing the TT WRS as well?

 

[saspo]

It was fun racing with both of you guys, way to stick it out for the whole 10 weeks and big thanks to [empty] for taking over the race organizer duties when it looked like the series was abandoned 👍

are you guys doing the TT WRS as well?

I did the qualifying, but I really liked the format for this series, with the consecutive clean laps and everyone using similiar controls. Only thing I would have liked was a choice of bikes each week, or maybe have all riders use a tz125 one week, then next week you could chose from a class of similiar bikes, mix it up , get some variety in there, throw a street bike in here and there.

The arcade mode single hotlap just doesn't interest me , and I think you really need to have separate divisions based on controller options. There is just too big a difference between whats possible with semi-pro/AT/FC on and pro/MT/FC off.

Good riding guys:tup: 👍 👍
