GVE Testing complete

Focus 1.08.9
Honda 1.09.3
VW Golf 1.09.6
Alfa 1.10.2
BMW 1.10.3
S3 1.10.4
vectra 1.10.1

My testing so far....

Focus 1:09:137
330i 1:09:474
Vectra 1:10:248
Audi 1:09:944

We're pretty darn close with our times...I think the fords time is pretty misleading because it makes up its time in the straights. Im expecting her to be slow around nurb GP/D. Swinging her fat ass around the corners is gonna be a nightmare....Audi is 5mph down in the straights. Vectra's pretty bad. My 330i handles like a dream. :P

Yet to try the alfa, golf and honda...

I think using the vectra will seriously disadvantage anyone using it. Consider scraping it? Just my opinion...

Damm :banghead:
I won't make the first race :(
Only if the races were held on Saturdays...

I actually won't mind Saturday either. The advantage is that basically we have +-12 hours of available time all around the globe (if that makes sense)

Well your time sounds quite good and johnny's one is sensational... If we can get close to them we can be solid midfielders...

also yesterday i came up with a tune that feels great... what is the target time at the nur?

i got a 1.41.6 that i'm quite proud of, and probably get in low 1.41 too with better driving.

Also i've spent lots of hours on the Vectra and same Captainhelmet; i think we won't drop it even if it means another podiumless season after the S60 :D

As they say to have someone getting there first there must be a last one too 💡

i'll post my new time at GVE later today.
 
Haven't really done much practice yet, as I'm practicing for another series on Friday (I find it impossible to focus on more than one thing :lol:) but the Focus feels great so far.

Bit embarrassing having the fastest car though :lol: Deffo going to keep out of trouble and have a proper championship effort this time.

The Ford is a beast with S3 turbo and some weight over the rear wheels... crap driver, good car should be interesting :lol:

Scary, I'm worried you beat me now, better get in 100laps of practicing :sly:

1.10.477s :sly:
I am around that 1.10.8 mark if I make a small mistake.


So who asked about the Purtek's Honda Civic's New set up :rolleyes:
 
Are we having a pre season race this friday?

Just tested the alfa, its worse than the vectra. Whatever you think is best for BTCC....👍
 
I'm all for a pre-season 👍 In fact I think we can't get started fast enough. The faster we start S2, the faster we can (possibly) start on S3, the faster I can take that championship :D
 
You can thank YouTube for that, the videos was so shaky you couldn't really see what I was showing.

If you want to you can download it here: Download me!

very cool, concerning the shakyness it's because your downloader choose to download the suckiest quality available of youtube amongst all the choices :D

also slowmotion always end in a little shakiness unless you go through the process of creating intra-frames...

ok it's a bit complicated :D

i liked it, the vid was low on quality but well done altoghter and it showed that i'm the soul of the championship, being almost in all the clips :D

You shoulda seen what it was like, it was like.. Hard to explain but all over the place.. Really bad.

Can you tell me a little more about those intra-frames? I'm really interested as it can become useful.. :)

And the quality? Does it help if I say Movie Maker :D

Your Audi time is boss fella ive spent 45 minutes tweeking things and the best i can squeeze is a 1.10.1.:bowdown: Plenty of smoke throwing it around the corners:scared: always good for a geekyism i spose.:sly:

Also great video Rallymorten 👍

I'm beginning to like your geekyism 👍

Glad you like it, but I hate Movie Maker for the quality and YouTube for very likely being the cause of the shakyness 👎:grumpy:

You're welcome to re-upload it though (just beware of EMI :lol: )
 
concerning quality use keepvid.com to dl the highest resolution possible and choose an higher bitrate.

if you're concerned about EMI just slow down or make the song a 1-2% faster and the auto search bots won't recognize the music :D

if you can "somehow" acquire sony vegas you'll have many extra options... what kind of file movie maker outputs and what control you have in it? just changing a few parameters can greatly help.

going back on topic i think we can start earlier than the 20th... in any case tha cars can't be abalanced easily so imho it's better to just race them around :D

The base quality is not my concern, it's the outcome, pixelated as h-word.

So I just have to write in description "download the video and play it in half speed" :lol:

I did have a trial version once but *cough* expired *cough* 👎:(

Good thinking here :)
 
Is it final that the first race of season 2 is Friday the 20th of july?
This might be a little too late, but Saturdays/Sundays fits way better for me than Fridays.
A poll perhaps...? 💡
