A-spec Intermediate Level Muscle Car Battle: Trial Mountain

[breyzipp]

Ok been using your tips @Ridox2JZGTE to get the sense of speed in photo's and it's working great. The picture of the Corvette is what I took earlier this week after finishing this seasonal, but without knowing how to add the sense of speed. The 2 from the Viper GTS are with your tips added but I took the car to Willow Springs @ sun fall since I love the car's colour on that track with that daylight. And that Viper happens to be one of the sexiest modern sports cars IMO.

By this I present you all my first 3 screenshots in GT6 ever. Love it when the colours of the car match the environment, which worked out nice for both cars. That first Viper screenshot from the side/front is my brand new PS3 wallpaper. The one from the side/rear was probably nicer without the other cars blurred in the background but I really wanted the horizon with the mountains in the far background on it as well (and I didn't spend that much time finding the perfect snapshot in the entire replay).

This is a pretty fun race. '05 Ford GT, camber at 0, changed the top speed a bit, did all the weight-loss stuff, lowered the PP, TC at 1. Super fun.

I tried an old friend today, the Pontiac Solstice Coupe. I used to love this car in GT5, but nobody seems to use it here on GT6. Anyway, I tuned it up and turned it lose on Trial and ZING, I was in the lead by the end of Lap 2!?!?! I kept going with the car tweaking the gearbox etc. and I was getting best laps of 1:35 and 8:29 for total time.

I've been grinding on the Elise at Madrid so I was topped right up for cash so I bought a couple of cars that were unfamiliar to me, The Saleen S7 and the Cadillac Cien. Praiano seems to like both of these cars for this PP so they come highly recommended.

I used a Team Schmo tune on the Saleen, and loved it, pulling 1:32'S AND 8:16 for a huge lead, here at Trial Mt. I used a Praiano tune on the Caddy, but found it a bit weird so I took all the ballast out of the tune and was able to duplicate the same numbers as the Saleen S7. Both cars responded to 3.73 gears in the back and both pulled 152 mph on the downhill after the tunnel. Both cars were leading on lap two by the big downhill after the tunnel.

I don't suppose anyone is having trouble with this race, but both of these cars are kind of cool and work really well. An educated right foot is the only requirement!! Ha HA! Oh, and don't forget the Solstice. Put the supercharger on it and watch the crowd get smaller in the mirror. I run all my cars with all aids off except ABS-1

Cheers, Pete

I raced this gem 4 times in a row, and won them all Exact specs, no aids ( no brake assist 7/7 BB ) Comfort Soft tires, 500PP, 1:40s best lap, and 8:57s total time. Very fun to drive and race against the Viper and Ford GT.

Mr. Senna did it. A gem to drive, indeed. Very pleasant.
Best lap: 1:41.9 for me. Average lap: 1:43-44.

How's the Bob ? Did they got mad at you when you have taken the lead ?

No, not at all. I think they've recognized me.
