BST V8 challenge -COMPLETED

[Milldrum]

Im going to grab an hour online if anyones at a loose end.💡

Joined the room, was blown away, hit a few walls, threw some sand, mowed the grass. Then after posting a solitary 1:26 and a lot of 1:27's, my time was up.

Hopefully I can crash a few walls later on.

Managed a 1.24.6

 

[Gedi69]

Only 4 spots left for series 2.

 

[cunny17]

Managed a 1.25.4 but turn 1 killing front right tyre.

 

[V8-Johnboy]

If 11 laps is to optimistic for the sprint race we can cut it down a couple of laps???💡

 

[cunny17]

Do the hard tyres actually last longer.

If they do mate what you loose in time against softs makes it a poor option, besides some say the hards actually wear quicker because youn tend to slide around more??

Gentle through them corners mate my set up has changed completely from Tsubuka. So if we say 9 and 24 for tonight.👍

I would knock the camber levels down a bit thats a little high i reckon.

 

[cunny17]

I was running 2.8 front 2 rear, turned it down to 1.8/1 to try and help wear. Although the wear was less i was sliding in fewer laps. So for me it was better to run more camber and start backing off a bit after 6ish laps, maybe even have to pit. You go off once may cost you as much time as a pit stop.

 

[Knelly]

Laguna yeah? What worked for me last night in IROC Camaro RM was massively reducing all your dampers to 2 and 3. Try that.

Camber was 2.2 and 2.0 btw and got 15 laps

 

[UncleBoB]

my best was 1.23.4xx online, still need to fiddle with the suspension a bit

Avoiding spinning out will do me!!

 

[VRracingfan]

At the moment the upstairs power is off and so I cannot get on my PS3 right now. However, it will hopefully be working by tonight so I should be able to join you. The internet is coming from downstairs so i'll definetly be able to follow the live feed.

[Akmuq]

Laguna, along with Monaco and Tsukuba is a track I generally do good at, unfortunetley, I haven't played GT5 much since last monday, hopefully I can luck my way through like in TOCA.

Lol!


Only 3 spots now for S2!

 

[V8-Johnboy]

RP can wrap things up tonight.

 

[Akmuq]

RP can wrap things up tonight.

He's got more then 25 points of a lead which is crucial cause that's the maximum you get for one race, BoB would really want a double podium and a win tonight and beat RP in both races.

I need for anyone good to not show up for both tonight and Nurburgring.

 

[Tom]

Will be using the Matte Purple Paint again tonight 👍

Would like to see it go to the last race at the Ring......I think.

 

[Akmuq]

Everybody, there is a very distinct way of driving this track in particular. Of course I'm not going to tell you.
