Is everyone using the GSXR-4 at Midfield, because I will not be close to my PS3 until tomorrow to give this a go.
I decided against using the PD motorbike for this one. I just used my McClaren iPod and achieved a gold time. That will be enough for me. I may try and find other non motorbike-cars if I have a break from uni work though. I have a few Nissan's and Beemers which should work well on that track. That is me though. If you want a top time. the only car that seems capable is the PD motorbike unfortunately. I wish they would put a ban on that car for some seasonals, it makes it way too easy.
 
I wonder if @Soren Jacquet has this model of buggy for his child.

A rabbit hunter in training so to speak :)

I look forward to seeing what car you jump into now. If you go for the GSX, ill know that your going for the top spot. Its pretty tight up there right now.
I think I will use GXR, unless you can come up with a much better car that I can use from your garage. 👍

None is quicker than the GSX.. this is the problem I have with the seasonal events at times. What is the point of giving us 1200+ cars to use, but have 5-10 cars which dominate the whole game and can be used in various events.. It must be easy to put a ban on a car. Oh well. It feels like GT6 is kind of being left behind now whilst they work on GT7. That may not be a bad thing. I for one can't wait for GT7 and I look forward to that being released at some point in the next 5 years.
 
There are two options : get gold and leave or have a battle with your friends ..to be honest i take always the first option at drift events ;)
 
Used the only brand from @chrisspeed281 's country for the 550pp normal car superlap
The KTM X-bow Street, searched what tune i based today's settings for the
550pp normal superlap.
Found it here and changed it a while ago for a 550pp.Had to change Finalgear for midfield.
Did a 1:13.977 at midfield ( 7 laps)
I don't know why i have 1st gear at 3.111, maybe i couldn't match that gear, back then.
Or wanted less umpf in 1st gear.I Can't remember.

A little feedback regarding your VW Supersport VGT drift tune. It turned out well as a base to work off of. The thing that made me tinker with it was the lack of torque split.


Managed a solid 8k run with it and that's where the car ran out of steam, try as i might i couldn't go higher. had it had the ability to alter torque split it could've been a serious contender to the BMW VGT.


I then took a quick look at the leaderboards and discovered that some of my friends were running with the Audi Quattro S1. Knowing how i roll, i didn't want to be a lemming, so i took a different route.


Ended up using my own creation/tune on a Monster Sport Suzuki SX4 base model.. A pretty wild car to tame, but i'm nearly there as i can run solid 10k runs consistently with it.
 
The Black Edition '12. Sorry that I did not include the year of manufacture
No worries, I just like to make sure. :)

8K is very good. I would be happy with that. I should look into the Quattro S1. See what I can do with that one.
