hmm same track and pp as we had not too long ago...only difference is non race car this time

 

[ALB123]

I never thought I'd see a Countach as the rabbit for this race. Especially considering I chose MY Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary Edition for this event. I'll never refuse a free BMW M3 '07, even considering this is now my 4th!

NOTE: You'll have to lower the power from that Ridox Replica Countach...It's slightly above 500PP.

Quick note of Thanks to nowcontrol. These threads are a tremendous boost to our social enjoyment of the Seasonals. 👍

I see myself doing a lot of stints in Subies here. Some tuning required.

Another win for a XKE! This time using a Little Duckpond tune, thanks to @Thorin Cain.👍

Keeping it classy: Gold in the all-Gold Chrome Delorean!

 

[photonrider]

Nice. Ackerman got a taste of the future.

 

[coryclifford]

My little 450pp '04 Civic must be fast cause it just killed these Mercs.

 

[SVPSkins]

This was a fun race. I managed it in a car set to 450pp and I didn't think if i'd get the win with the little Honda. Thought i may have bitten off more then i could handle but

to my surprise it did get the win.

Another win for a XKE! View attachment 391797 This time using a Little Duckpond tune, thanks to @Thorin Cain.👍

Glad to see your enjoying the old girl I've not taken her out in a while now If I remember correctly she's a bit of a handful on SH tyres Congratulation on the win

 

[shaunm80]

Again. way too easy so used the same car/tune from madrid. A fantastic car and sounds so good.

Nice change after the expert event, i needed that.

 

[SP0TTEDLAUREL]

Took a few goes (more due to my ineptitude than the car’s abilities), but I did this with the ’71 Mustang Mach 1 with a few upgrades to get it to about 480pp. That was without the Countach rabbit – earlier on when I tried a different line-up that finished about 12secs ahead of everything else and even with more upgrades I doubt I could’ve caught it. Might be worth a try though….



Not really sure why I chose this car, but the metallic blue paintwork looked great in the mountain sunlight and it was an accidental coincidence with my use of a ’71 240ZG in the Beginners event.

 

[Sick Cylinder]

I did this one with the beginner level prize car and really enjoyed it - took a couple of attempts to learn the track and get the gearing right - I set it low so it hit the limiter downhill, but gave better acceleration up the hills. I wish the Intermediate level challenge gave a prize car capable of winning the expert event.

 

[Ryk]

Took a win in a stock TVR Griffith, lots of black lines on the track locking up into the meaty corners.
Had two Finnish drivers in the same car in the same race -
Subaru Impreza WRX STi spec C '09
A.Holopainen and H.Hynninen

They even had the very same paint chip shade, Baby Vomit Yellow Mica.

 

[Delphion]

Boring track and boring car choice. Always the same 500 PP non-racing cars. I guess they must be really proud of the Dristelen track since it's featured so much in both the main game and the seasonals.

 

[Bowtie-muscle]

@nowcontrol thanks again for all you do with these thread and for linking my garage:tup:

I have more than enough of a variety in my garage to make this one interesting. Want easy, try my 2010 Camaro or Solstice.
Want a challenge, try my 97 Z28 or IROC-Z.
Many others to try also, and there are a few 500pp cars in this month's Car of The Month that would be a change of pace as well:tup:.

Use the same car for the Ascari time attack spec 450pp, but change it to comfort soft for more scary downhill drive ...

 

[j4mmin42]

I wanted to do something different (and challenging-ish) here, so I ran an F40 detuned to 500PP, no driver aids. WOW that thing likes to slide just as much as it did in the earlier GT games Anyway it made this one pretty fun, got it on the second go.

There are quite a few decent F-40 tunes going around because there was a seasonal featuring it a couple months ago.

 

[light driver]

My turn to say thank You to nowcontrol for keeping those treads. Nice of You good Sir 👍

Yes it`s only been a little more than a month since the last intermedia A spec "race" here on Dristelen.
- That was 500pp race cars and it was way to easy and not funny...

This one however, is much better. I used my Ferrari Dino with 460pp, Sixaxis controller and no aids; except ABS. Did the race many times untill I was satisfied with my driving. Actually a good intermedia challenge.
Think I`ll try some other cars as well...See You guys`n`girls

Don't feel out of place. I just said the heck with the garbage and rolled a detuned MP412C. No nannies or abs also. Using the car did give me the option of stopping for tea at the midpoint.

 

[Wydopen]

I went with @Bowtie-muscle suggestion and broke out the 88 Iroc concept. I didn't win on the first try, but after a little on the fly tuning for the specific track, I managed to get down to 1:14.286 and got a fairly easy win. I recommend anyone give it a try. With a proper tune, this car loves this track.

 

[Kingofweasles]

Somehow won this in a 500pp Mitsubishi Lancer Evo V. on CH's... Then switched to SH's and blitzed the field. I'll try out a Rear-Drive car at some point for a comparison, because the EVO could really pull itself out of the tighter corners and uphill.

 

[CoolMartini]

I've kept the 450PP Suzuki, won the 500PP event with it. One of the easiest ever. You don't need any of those tunes unless you like to try different cars around this interesting (because elevation difference) configuration. It was amazing how that Suzuki reaped thru the 500PP cars field.

 

[MTM79]

Went for the usual overkill but this fellow with the RUF really gave me a run for my money. Good race.

 

[Pepsmear]

Always easy wins with my trusty GSX-R/4, taking the lead at the end of lap three. Tried it with a stock Tesla Model S with almost the same PP's - impossible for me...

Yep, the F40 is a fun car around this track. For the win, I added 200kg ballast and pushed all towards the front to make the back less heavy, and less tail happy. Calms the handling down somewhat, but then I removed it because powersliding through that big first left hander is more entertaining!

 

[BMWcrazy]

The DeLorean looks awfully fun. I have to try that car in the future seasonals.

If anyone wants another fun car, definitely have a look at the Mazda RX500. It might look funny but it is actually one of the quickest road cars I've ever driven in GT6.
