Look. I came across this. Our ghost race issue occurred elsewhere.
"I had a NASCAR race last night at Daytona with 7 cars and there wasn't any contact at all for 10 laps, normally that's good but this time it was because nobodies cars were showing up on the other players screens and the race was essentially a 10 lap time trial with everybody trying to work out what position they were in from the cryptic split times. The host had no idea what was happening and after talking with his equally confused friends he left to make a new room."
 
This is what I found in testing at apricot, all cars had oil and nothing else.

BRZ=1.23.054 (518pp -361hp-1150kg)
Garaiya=1.23.08 (514pp -352hp-1175kg)
IS350=1.23.8 (513pp -333hp-1150kg)
Impreza=1.22.9 (514pp -333hp-1100kg)
RX7=1.22.89 (512pp -337hp-1100kg)

There all very close except the IS350 is a bit slower but its a mid engine rear wheel drive so its needs some getting use to. The BRZ and RX7 are great fun and exciting but will give oversteer quite easy, Imprez has loads of grip cause its all wheel drive and the Garaiya feels like a racing lotus, very nible but short wheel base will spin you out if you get to brave on the gas or the brakes. Did all testing at that Apricot Hill.

If we add 25-30kg ballast to Impreza and RX7 I think it will even their times up with the other 3. Mike, since you have the most time at Apricot Hill in these cars please add 25kg ballast to your Impreza and RX7. The rest of the gang will try to keep up with you in the other three. We will also run a Silverstone track or Fuji to see what a longer straight results in. Thanks.

Sounds good , doesn't adding weight make it "tuned"

Good call. Guess we will have to exclude cars or manipulate the room entry settings like before.

You can lower the hp and it will still be ok for running prohibited. Proved this testing for my IROC series that we were going to do with the Challenger TC

Ya you can still load cars then change pp settings and load others on track, the brz will need a higher pp and the others are pretty close but we got the option easy enough

Why will the BRZ need a higher PP? Where is the RX7 sold at? What's the model name? Thanks.
 
Can we add ballast and still run tuning prohibited? Or we have to go crazy with HP and weight entries again? Guess I need to spend time in lobby with a couple of you guys so we can get this together.

Bett's right. Why don't we mess around with the 300 cars for the night and move on to others next week. We could also do say a 500pp race pick any street car no tuning type race like in career mode. We could specify region or make in the car preferences in the lobby. Just my 2 cents
 
Riding the cable car in SF yesterday and saw this

Just for the record Im happy to race any car, there are a lot of them that are very good, we probably all like a little bit differant things in them and I'm sure we can find some we all like and can get.

I'd settle for riding a cable car in SF.

I've lived about 20 miles from SF for 42 years and that was the first time for me. I'll have to visit Alcatraz next.

Also, I saw a chrome Maserati Quattroporte - it was so ugly my phone wouldn't take a picture, but it sure sounded purtty.
