👍 Toffe

Did another session: 1:50.8 => 49´s are possible for those who are faster than me (almost everybody )

 

[RacerPaul]

so here comes the replay of the short race at Tokyo...

That looked like a fun race

It's plain to see from the quality and cleanliness of the driving in there that you have a
good, sensible set of racers going on

Should have kept your PS3 mate!

@KingSakery Nice lap You plan on racing Monday?

 

[RacerPaul]

Should have kept your PS3 mate!

Had to make shelf room for the X1

I'm hoping GT7 will be epic enough to have an excuse to lash out on a PS4

 

[cunny17]

It needs to be epic RP or I can see a lot of people turning to the dark side.

Think a few will be building sand castle's monday night, myself included.

What sort of time you putting down Stu?

 

[cunny17]

I think it was a 1:51:3**. Did 20 odd laps in free run. Time to be gained in turns 1,2,3,4,etc you get my drift Biggest problem was outbraking myself and ending up in the kitty litter. Turns 3,4, and 5 are crucial to lap as is exit of turn 10 onto downhill straight. A good second can easily be lost in these corners. The best I think I could run on a perfect lap would be a very low 50. If I have time tonight might have a short spaz about.

 

[KingSakery]

@V8-Johnboy Yepp this is my plan. I hope me can make tomorrows ITCC race painless

BTW: the 50.8 was probably my luck-lap. All others where very low 51´s but those with minor "redglowing" Tires.
=> hope for a decent R2 on Monday

 

[V8-Johnboy]

^ Now what @R35 SKYLIN3

 

[Gedi69]

I'm hoping to get on and try my car with the tweek (supercharger) later.

 

[Hancock]

My bloody internet is down, spoke to sky and they are coming to have a look Monday between 13:00-18:00 so I haven't clue if I'll be able to race now!

Can only practice offline, how much of a difference is there in lap times? Also are we having a drop round this season?

My internet has been going down all day, it's just the weather I think

bad news, wheel is acting up again

Had another 20 laps tonight but online and my times were the same for both.

Did manage a 1 off 50:4** but it was one of those laps where it seemed slow but was fast. Only managed it once, so race pace for me is in 51's

It is in the OP about drop scores, 2 drops per season.

You on virgin by anychance?

No I'm with sky, think it's a problem at the exchange!

 

[Gedi69]

Let's hope it's sorted by Monday

I have also been doing a few laps on Motegi, hitting 51's usually and once I hit a 50.5xx

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Notice the Lexus guys keeping quiet.

@Hancock Second quicker I think is the offline rule.

I'll be doing my tests monday afternoon.

I will be on this evening doing my first runs , I think the Lexus could struggle here similar to Nurb GP/F

Motegi is a lot wider though so that may help out the understeer .

 

[Gedi69]

Did my testing last night 1st time I've ever drove this track, other than that last chicane I really liked this track, if people ain't patient I can see a lot of off's there, as jb says there's plenty of other places to overtake here 💡

 

[V8-Johnboy]

I'm really liking the place nice and wide so should be good for clean racing. I see what you mean though Stu get a corner slightly wrong and the bottom drops out of a decent lap.

 

[Furinkazen]

Did you guys test with fuel use / tyre wear on or off?

 

[Gedi69]

I haven't tested tyres yet but I'm sure there be fine.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Did you guys test with fuel use / tyre wear on or off?

Off, still need to do a full wear test. 26 was merely what the calculator told me was right time wise.

 

[cunny17]

My runs were with wear off

 

[V8-Johnboy]

Wear is fine for 13 laps, fuel only covers you for 13 incidentally.

Big traffic jam in the pits then

Forza's customisation options and livery editor are indeed seductive
