Expert Fuji 550 PP FWD only event, :00 :15 :30 :45

Lol, yeah, he's a naughty monkey.

The biggest problem with this circuit though, is that it intices people to have contact. If someone doesn't understand the term ''late apex'' they shouldn't try and race at Fuji...

If he is a monkey i cannot really imagine what you should be.

How the hell can you say that about people driving the integra, did you try something else but the GT-R on Daytona?
Oh i gues for any reason i don´t get, that wasn´t the same.

 

[GTP_rpm]

Perhaps he is just nice to you?

Hitler was apparently very nice to his friends...Doesn't make him a nice guy

What did I say bad about Integra drivers?

 

[Nicksfix]

They tried to start a non-integra race, but it seems those who want to race FWD just want to use the 'teg anyway!

I would like to see all Mini Coops , it's not real bad , but it does get knocked around by the Honda guys.
PS. was able to pull off a 2nd place once with it,the "H" group were busy punting each other,and the little Mini just slid on by.

 

[DaddyVDUB]

A better alt to Integra may be the VW GTI. I have used one several times in this event with great sucess. It is not quite as fast as Integra. But the car is very stable on R tires you can make up for lack of power with corner speed,then use drafting to your advantage.

punter hmmm that sounds bad i hope they are gone by now

Hehe, starting to feel a little desperate against all those Integras in my Mini..

But you can keep up well 👍

arrrw Roomboter. You got that spot in the end then. I thought i would draft and pass, but i didnt gain a bit! Keep the same distance on you somehow.

 

[GTP_rpm]

The 'tegs are so quick in the straight.

If I'm leading out of the last turn, I consider that a victory

Not just the tegs, been wipped some times bij a few Mazda and some Focusses and one Mini
Thought I had a good setup for the straight , but still got passed

 

[GTP_rpm]

I think the guys who can run with S3's at the rear manage to me up in the corners, but just do me down the straights.

But I enjoy the challenge of racing the 'tegs. It's fun...Especially when you win

cos i was in a slipstream as well

was a nice race thanks to everbody who was involved

 

[Tired Tyres]

I wish they would completely disable collision detection from this race and give anyone who goes off the track at least a 10 second stop penalty.

 

[Kemikz]

Thanks all Was a great racing evening 👍

 

[DTM]

Calcifer12 nice time


i was in a big punt fest but got even on them without touching them awesome

 

[hornet_burnout]

Was in 4th in lap 1, trying to catch you... but got my ass punted a unbelievable number of times... This IT on an orange focus... somethingGT5. Punted me and TT and everyone else a nr of times!

TT nice to meet you again. Be back in about an hour.

BTW, now driving R1 fr and S2 in the rear, and even more of that sweet VTEC power!

They've got even more lenient with the run-off area's...It's a shame.

Most players still insist on keeping their car flat out, using the run-off area's and not losing time despite the fact their flawed skills have enabled them to be in this position of running wide.

All they need to do is lift off a bit and accept that they didn't clip the apex/get the power down quite right...

Not hard is it?

 

[hornet_burnout]

I've been forced to widen the trajectory on first and last corners many times (using the run-off) when that kind of person is behind me. To gain some exit speed and compensate their unfair tactics that allow them to run in you slipstream and then punt you off with a brown-nose in the next corner.

That's also why I drive this kind of power tune, to get away from those guys that use "alternative" cornering techniques...

 

[GTP_rpm]

It's a bit like dealing with middle lane drivers on the motorway.

How to avoid a punter in the first corner (doesn’t work always)​

Brake a bit earlier than normal and brake for about 50 to 70 %. When you see the punter creeping in on your tale, let go of the brake and change your line at the last minute and brake again for entering the corner. You will see him flyby off the track. Such a pleasure when it works and he must feel the awe full pain in his whole body I did it again last night when a punter kept messing with me and that how I get even on his …. Haven’t seen him the rest of the race also possible on other corners btw.

That's a beautyfull feeling
It happens to me so often becausse of my driving style. I usually take all corners giving a last moment turn and you can even imagine the face of the punter when he is thinking "where the hell is he gone" while he´s going straight with the cows.👍

 

[hornet_burnout]

not good this afternoon... a few good moments, but generally it's a punt fest. And I'm not fast enough to get away from them these last 2 days...

Calcifer, you got that setup nailed just right I guess! ;-)

I hope it's better this evening.

 

[Leonidae]

I'll be there later tonight, after I've finished polishing my Mini's setup. it's getting faster steadily,, probably 1'52 is realistic, but I doubt that it could reach 1'51..

 

[CodeRedR51]

I got punted last night in the RWD event. The guy's name was "eriic_15". Luckily I clocked some good lap times and gained back about two seconds of the eight he put me down. The other guy that was racing almost got taken out by him too, so when I was about four seconds back, I saw them both go flying off of the track. He had taken the punter out. Needless to say I won the race because of that, and now I have a new friend.

 

[Crispy74]

I'm on tonight, Focus' set up is still kinda 'Work in progress', so if I lose it or tap anyone, I apologise in advance

 

[GTP_rpm]

@ Crispy74

First other Hemel player I've seen about..Hi!

[Leonidae]

Hemel hampstead? hmm.. oh yes, the economically burning oil refinery Lost to clarkson Ford GT tho well, I'm about to enter and test my mini setup.
