Thanks for creating the threads for the Seasonal Events @nowcontrol. I was worried we might not have any this week.

Well, I don't drive oval tracks ever, so I took out my Lamborghini Miura to see how well I would do with a nice, lightweight car. 1st place. Too easy. Will go back and try the event again with something heavier.

 

[GT5 Level 41]

Nissan 2020 makes an easy run out of it. I came in second on my first run because I left it in drift settings. A "no tune" will win this one. @180k, it'll make a decent no think credit grind.

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

@nowcontrol thanks for keeping these threads going and stepping up to do them:tup:
Also thanks for mentioning my garage

 

[Jaywalker]

Well done & thanks for doing these threads, @nowcontrol. 👍

The paint chip doesn't work, i looked in the garage before I did the race and noticed I already had a GT CHROME 005-C that shows a completely dark blue colour with no shading, so went and checked the race and the chip shown has light blue at bottom dark blue up top, did the race got the win went and checked garage for two 005-C. And only the solid dark blue one is there. Not the new one.

 

[testorz]

I used a Ferrari Italia 458 and won rather easily by about 3 seconds or so.

 

[Fuzzi0n]

Used a tuned Evora, easy win as the AI is really slow through T3/T4. Just watch for them braking really hard into T3 as they sweep straight down to the inside of the track too.

 

[FSportIS]

Did they mix it up? Beginner at 550PP and intermediate at 500pp?? I thought PD ALMOST always rate beginner/intermediate/expert based on PP level in the past.

 

[tankuroded]

The NSX LM Proto driver is named S.Honda.

 

[2cam16]

Too easy with the Nissan 2020.

 

[BMWcrazy]

I like to use my Ruf RGT.

The tail keeps sliding around. Kind of reminds me of doing oval racing in Need For Speed Shift.

 

[Thematic]

BTR does not like banked corners. Tried with comfort tyres for a while, but it was too hard to even carry speed. With cs/sh I eventually won against S7, Viper GTS Launch Edition and the NSX prototype that was fortunately still asleep in sixth position.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

This is my new grinding event...great change of pace from the RedBull and NASCAR grinds. 👍

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

The LCC Rocket gets the job done, and thanks to it's near-nonexistent weight, it's like a slot car around the the track.

 

[shaunm80]

This event is a "Pick a car, any car" event. Ford GT40 Mark 1 '66, Ferrari California have been wins for me but I imagine I could find a lot more cars that are more than capable of winning.

This is my new grinding event...great change of pace from the RedBull and NASCAR grinds. 👍

Only a temporary one. It will be gone in two weeks.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Only a temporary one. It will be gone in two weeks.

Yea, I know this.....I'm no noob here.

 

[Sick Cylinder]

I enjoyed this event in a completely stock Chromeline Cobra - took me about 6 goes to win. I found it a lot harder than the intermediate and expert events.

 

[Dr Fourtrack]

Thank You @nowcontrol for looking after the Seasonal Events threads.

 

[BAP_Shockz]

Used the Cizeta V16T '94 and beat the Beginner Supercar challenge on my first try. Only things I modded were the suspension, LSD and clutch. Holy crap, even stiffening up the front suspension to increase understeer slightly, this car still slides around corners without a care in the world. Overtook the S7 in front at the last turn of the last lap.

 

[tankuroded]

Oh, by the way, I did it with a stock C7 Vette.

 

[Akvarius]

OK this was easy.
Used the NSX R '02.
Even with my bad driving I won without a sweat.
Even sent sideways three times

 

[killerjimbag]

Yea, I know this.....I'm no noob here.

Your not a noob here

 

[Johnny1996]

I completed the event in an untuned Cizeta V16T. In a close battle between a Viper Launch Edition and SLS AMG, I was dirt-tracking the V16T around the turns. The back end kept sliding and sliding out, but it was fun. I'm actually going to complete this even multiple times, not for grinding purposes, but because its so much fun for me.

Best of luck to the rest of you fellow racers out there with this event.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Your not a noob here

Isn't that what I said? Have another beer there killer.

 

[N0t_L3fty]

Yep, if you just run it repeatedly for a hour it's 2M that ain't to shabby for a grinder race...
That's with the log in bonus...

 

[Ninners]

I did it in the Europa. Took me 4 attempts to actually win

Had the race in the bag coming out of the last corner and just brushed the wall when catching a slide and that spun me out just metres from the finish The next time the A.I smashed me so I lost a few places but I managed to pass him into the final turn, but I got massive oversteer and lost the win Third time I was spun out and the 4th I finally made it stick.

 

[kjb]

I used the GSX-R/4 twice. I won both times the first was at 5 11 pp with Viper GT6 '13 as the rabbit and the second was at 500 pp with Ford GT 06 as the rabbit. In both races I took the lead on the 4th lap. I enjoyed for what it was worth never hit the brakes in the curves. I want to try a detuned DP-100 next time out

 

[crowhop]

Running with the Light Rocket tuned to 550 pp I can run 36.5 laps finishing the race under 3:30. What are the fastest wins you are getting?
