Hey Madison!

Nice combo there, looking forward to this one 👍

Note: maybe you might want to edit the details in the "first post" to the right car and track and stuff, not that there's confusion again

Cheers
Ren

Shouldn't it be 22nd and 24th?....I know you wrote the right time above that, but just thought i'd point it out...

 

[Mad94d]

Sorry, late at night, many problems are emerging. Remind me never to start a thread at a ridiculous time again. I've made heaps of mistakes.

No worries mad..You're doing a great job between you and ripping...And it really is a great way of improving your skills, and driving cars you wouldnt normally bother with....👍

Thanks mate:tup: I have it easy, ripping does all the hard stuff.👍 All I have to do is choose car and track and post the threads. A lot more work for him, great work ripping!👍

Well the original idea of markyboy's has turned out to be quite a hit. The whole idea of this championship was to hopefully make people become faster drivers with different combo's and practice. It seems to be working in my opinion, everyone has definetely improved(including myself I believe) a lot. Great work guys, keep up the good work and keep on "Enhancing Your Skills".

 

[markyboy92]

Thanks, everyone has improved im my opinion, maybe even Dan, your both doing a great job.

 

[spyrrari]

Well,did a quick session and also love this combo...
The Lexus has much more grip on S-tyres than i whas expecting...the steering feels particulary "heavy" for a car like this,even more than the BMW m3...odd,because in real life its vice verca....

fun on the London track never the less...

I had a session around 5 hours ago, the cars easy handling makes it a addictive combo!
In my best lap I lost probably a tenth at the last corner, had a perfect first corner though

It's actually 0.102 .. and I was just doing some initial testing of the combo with the KoR account to see how the car was to drive

Tizz thought it would be funny and he also wanted to put a pic in the first post. So we did. That's what happens when you're starting a thread at 11:30pm with friends(from similiar time zone) in the racing chat.

 

[Boffin]

rock 'n roll 👍

 

[Nicko]

Hi guys, just did a quick 20min session and got to 8th with a time of 55.685, right behind spyrrari Can definitely see more time to T2 as I'm up .2 over my next few laps Anyway it's a superb combo Mad, I'm loving it 👍

 

[holl01]

Managed to hit a 54.910 with a solid last sector, really happy with the lap, especially the left right section 1 corner after T2, maintained high speed there, submitted

After 1 hour I got to 5th in the rankings. Stunning time Dan, no chance of me catching you.

Thanks, I had my doubts about beating my previous best time, and was happy that I composed myself well for the last corner when I was equal to my previous best ghost approaching the final turn. My goal was to get a mid to high .9xx during my second session, but a .910 was bonus:tup:

I may be looking in the wrong place, but I can't seem to find the updated points table..Has one been done yet?....

No points table yet as no replays have been checked and verified.
As soon as they are, I will post the standings.

[markyboy92]
