It was a team effort :) GTP_Cohiba helped me a lot. Sure is also pretty fast with the teg. I found out the TCS was at 5 :ouch: . It totally screwed up the car characteristics. Put it off and i'm back in business.
Pretty happy with that 9.20. But raced some GTRP and GTRo guys that can manage 9.17... :drool: So that will be the next challenge

Sorry If I did go round you, my fault

Yes, very good. Too bad I lost it just before the hairpin on the third lap. Lost close to two seconds and was unable to claw it back (or indeed anything at all). Otherwise we might have helped eachother to 9.19

That's not directed at you mate. I got T-Boned at the hairpin by someone Non GTP and just thought I'd shout here as well as in my lounge

Ah, that what happened. Saw you , as it looked, backing off a bit.
Wondered what was going on. Because it was a damn fine race.
 
I have the solution to MobySPD's new setup

I'll be bringing this with me tonight.

Punting - if only we could vote users out. :)

Worst is always the very last corner of the 5th lap when some unknown whos been punting you off all race, decides to get right into your driving line (even though he's a couple of car lengths behind) crashing into you side on and stopping you flying out of the corner with decent acceleration and gap to avoid the slipstream. Guess who gets the penalty? :(
 
I wish I could complete a race without getting punted :grumpy:

Shall I clear the path around you :scared:
Saw some GTro take care of one who wasn't "behaving".
I do like the full grid races, but at times the 5 to 9 player grids were more fun. In terns of clean racing.

Get a decent tune man and hook up with the guys upfront :sly:
 
Sorry about the hit Cohiba.
I was trying to do the team thing and got hit by GTro_Lambo.
To his credit though he slowed and let me back past him 👍

Then I got taken out someone in a Red Integra and got a shortcut penalty trying to rejoin the track :crazy:.

Nice pit lane at Fuji

Don't worry about it, I probably brake earlier than expected in that particular corner. In fact I should thank you.. A kick in the rear was apparently just what I needed. After that I did the final four laps in the 1.51s in free air which has never happened before.
 
I demand 4 lap races from now on :)

What's it like following someone slow for a change guys?

EDIT: Used my own tune for that one:sly:

Well ... I remember I had dozens of problems with BHT.

But the last 3 races now I didnt have a single problem (redwings and zhoag). So I thought that needed to be said too :P
 
Are you being sacastic?

I hope so!
I'm still waitng on some sort explanation from certain members for Turn 1 incidents :irked:

Turn 1 still is mayhem... Everyone wants to accelerate out first in order to get in front of the pack.
Going wide, or take it sharp. Tough have been in worse races .
Had a good evening with the GTRo, IRT and some GTP drivers, shame there weren't so many GTPers on the grid.
Still have to improve my setup, some can leave me like i'm standing standing still whilst full accelerating.
 
You cant get 4 from me JASE72. I start in the front too often (and then be last place after the first corner). I will let GTP_Fastas___ judge :D
