If you can you should try recreating some Spanish race tracks. There are some really famous and great Spanish tracks that deserve to be in GT but they have never been.

 

[BrandonW77]

The first one I'll try to do is Lime Rock, then Mid-Ohio. Depends on how flexible it is, their description makes it sound like it will be a lot more flexible. I managed to get really close versions of both those tracks in GT5 and that thing was a b:censored:h to work with.

 

[daddyo845]

Yeah to me gt5s track creator seemed very random to me.

EDIT: I'm going to have to step out for a few so I've joined Sag's room for a quick test. I'll have a room up in a little while for more testing

Sorry Brandon, when I logged in bit early, no one had a room up so I started my own to practice the Ferrari. I must have missed the notification about you logging in or something because when I did notice you were doing some other track so I went to sleep (was past 1am already). You could have sent me a message

Had a good practice with torzilla. Seems we have a similar pace. Both still making some mistakes... It is a decent car too

Sorry, I had something pop up at the last minute so I couldn't be on very long. I just wanted to see how the timed race and false start worked and saw Sag was testing that so I just jumped in his room for a few.

Ah ha, so this is what you've been up to. Mind if I join you all one Saturday? Can't make it this weekend, but I should be grand for the following one.

We'd love to have you! This little Ferrari thing has turned out to be a lot of fun. We'll be in the Dino next week, look forward to seeing you on track again. 👍

It's all ready I was just waiting on two things...
1) the update 1.07, as I was privileged to learn about this many weeks ago!
2) for my Sunday calender to become clear again.

Expect a thread coming to a forum near you soon...

Need to keep that signature up to date 👍

They're there for historical reference, or something, or whatever excuse you want to believe.

Nah .

Insider Hobsies?

 

[hobbsy]

Actually the 450pp Production car cup, is not defunct, its just on hold to make room for other exciting events!

 

[kHamcio]

Who's going to participate tonight?

 

[daddyo845]

I'm pretty I will. Is there anyone who's getting around 2:20s?

 

[Torzilla]

Im in for today, I wish I could get into the 2:20's, I have issues with this track.

Well maybe you two should sit down and talk through them.

I was hitting low 17's on a good lap. You can try SM if they don't put you under 17's.

 

[Cu3e]

I'm pretty I will. Is there anyone who's getting around 2:20s?

I am joining. I got some lucky low 2:20 ish laps. More like 2:21 consistently.

 

[kHamcio]

I've done about 2:16:9xx, but I didn't practice much and I forgot about oil change, so I still don't know this track and car well Done it with offline, I still don't know how is it going to be, when it will be online.

What planet are you from?!
I could try sm but only if cu3e and torzilla try them with me.

Edit: I'm really bad at silverstone as well. That track kicks my butt.

 

[MC-Chase]

Good to know I'm not the only one who hates that place!

 

[Drex124]

I'm pretty I will. Is there anyone who's getting around 2:20s?

I'll be there, in the 2:20's as well so we're not alone

 

[daddyo845]

Although I don't know if sm are necessary as it seems we will still have a good race in the back. It's up to you guys though.

It took me even longer than usual to learn that track. I think it is the flatness. My mind tends to wander and then I think I am at the other similar looking turn and brake too much or too late... Still happens some times

I believe the track was made on old WW2 airfield, right?

It's finding the lines for me, I think you need to hook them up perfectly in order to attack the next apex correctly - I (because I'm not that good) tend to just 'hoon about trying to reach the grip limit, such technicalities as a good line never really cross my mind .

And yes it was, as are 99% of UK race tracks really. Many were converted to race tracks after they had no real use as airfields after world war 2.

That's what I was thinking, sounds like there'll be a good pack back there. 👍

I hated Silverstone at first but like it more and more every time I go there. Feel pretty comfortable getting around there now. At first I was in the 20's but after figuring out a couple turns was able to get down in the 17's consistently.

 

[kHamcio]

Some more testing, oil change and I've done 2:15:949 on SH tires, I'll see how it is going to be online
