I've up-dated the ladder. I think you (danjama & hm66) should let the results stand. You can always have a return match.

I'm ready to accept a challenge from anyone (a better bet than challenging SEGEL or sarrinen69).

I should say that sarrinen69 has no PC at the minute, & SEGEL has not put in any kind of appearance at GTPlanet, so although he communicated with me on the PSN that he wished to participate, I'm not sure that he understood what it was that he was agreeing to participate in! :indiff:
 
SEGAL, did send me a mssg on psn asking about what RB was, but it was in 1/2 english 1/2 german. He must have read the board but may not have registered.
 
Biggles, pitty i cant challenge you yet, but i can say it will be a hell of a battle. Especially after we just had 10 or so races with a few close finnishes like 0.07 seconds at the line.

Well, we've already had a hell of a battle on a number of different occasions! It's clear that, overall, we're very evenly balanced. Same with that Pom, RS, who I've raced one-on-one many times.
 
Well i guess that means MH gets the choice of re-doing it with me proposing 3 cars, or let the results stand....i dont mind either way because i had fun. Sorry the car sort of sucks it's just one of my boyhood favourites :)

It's a shame you had a bit of a bad luck night we have had much better races before. Anyway, here's a detail of the results:

Race 1 California - This was a tough race and really we were both warming up. He started in front and i passed him once on the second lap but he passed me strait after and the whole race was pretty close. In the last lap i pushed juuust too hard trying to get past him and bumped him off the track. Of course i let him back in front and he won, which is fair because i hit him and he was the better driver overall.

Race 2 Monza - This was a good race. Within the first lap i passed him but then i went off at the large chicane and he passed me. Strait after this on the start strait i passed him (this was a great moment as i watched you out of my side window very close) and we were close up to the second chicane and then unfortunately he went off the track and was unable to recover. I won.

Race 3 Mugello - This race was very unfortunate because he made one mistake on the first lap and that was it really. I won. I know this race could have been much better.

Race 4 Infineon Wet - What can i say? He kicked my ass on this track the whole time, he was just flying. It was pretty close with me right behind him until the 3rd lap when i got a wheel on the grass and just spun at around 90mph, good fun in the rain. This track is a real challenge in the wet, good fun!

Race 5 Redwood - This was a strait forward one. I started in first and he was close to me until he went off at the second corner on the second lap which was a shame. He did well to regain alot of ground but I won.

Race 6 Hockenheim - Unfortunately he went off the track, dont remember which corner, but he was unable to recover fully and i won. Technically this was the end of the challenge as i had 4/6 but we wanted to race the final anyway because....well why not? We were having fun lol.

Race 7 Silverstone - He started first and we were very close until the 1st corner of the second lap when he entered the corner hot and went off so i made the quick pass and got on with it. good race. I won.

So overall i think we had fun, but we were both not at our best, i cant wait for the next time we meet. Then again that may be sooner if he wants to ignore these results? And by the way great racing in the 360 later your bloody quick in that thing! Please dont challenge me in it >:) Virginia was a messy one for everyone lol wont be picking that again soon! Misano was good fun though.

As danjama says we had great fun.i also think we should let the result stand because its al about the fun.its make good sence that the challenger pick 3 cars because we all have our favorites and its funnier to have close races insted of beeing smoked at neirley all the tracks.See you all soon on a screen near you:)
 
then i have a go at RSRACER.
my car line-up will be f430-348-360 and tracks are REDWOOD-CALIFORNIA-VIRGINIA and MUGELLO
its up to you to set a time and date and i'll see if i can make it.
 
I'll have a go at GT Niehder then, I'll sort tracks and cars with him but 250 testerosa and my 4 tracks spa, mugello, misano and hockenhiem, all 5 mins all dry.

This challenge is also for energiya , whoever accepts first I'll race them first!

Can't challenge danjama, as he's 4 places away...

I just realised that I only did a 5 race challenge with Mingoturbo, so I reversed the ladder positions. :indiff:

Sorry Energiya challenged me first so you will have to wait for the outcome of that.
Also state which version of the 348 and 360 you mean, Challenge cars or standard road versions?
 
I challenge RSRacer at CALIFORNIA / MUGELLO / MONZA & SPA.

The cars i pick are F430 challenge, 360 GT & F430 GT2

I choose the 360GT and SPA wet / VIRGINIA & INFINEON either tonight or toworrow night. Your Monday and Tuesday morning i think. Just see if we catch each other online at the same time.

Biggles I think the challenged racer should be able to pick a track that is the same as the ones chosen if it has different weather.
Energiya has challenged me at CALIFORNIA / MUGELLO / MONZA & SPA.
I would like to be able to choose SPA wet.
What do you think?
Different weather can = very differnt race.

Mingoturbo actually picked one of the same tracks as me, so we ran it twice. Really, the point about the one-on-one racing is, you're free to do whatever you like as long as both racers agree to it. The rules are just there to provide a basic framework & as a default position if the two racers can't agree.
 
OK, before I get left in the dust here, I challenge GTP_Hun:

car:
250 LM
250 Testa Rossa
365 GTB

Tracks:
Mugello
Spa
Infineon
Redwood Park
Mount Tremblant
 
You're on jj :D

We'll do it with the 250 LM. About the tracks, you have picked 5, not 4, but I accept them all and also pick Silverstone (wet) and Virginia Raceway (dry).

Default settings. About when to schedule this, if I don't meet you online (PSN) still this night, we will do it as soon as we find each other.

👍
 
I know you're a total night owl but I'd rather not do it tonight. I'm still getting over my cold and I'm really tired. I'm off all day tomorrow so maybe we can get together at some point. Any particular time good for you?
 
Apart from weekends, I only play late night (starting usually about 11 PM and until 2 AM). So, that means from about 6 to 9 PM your time (I think). We will meet during this week, I'm sure.
