I personally had good fun yesterday. I think the cars are well balanced with hp. Already looking forward to Fuji.
I did suffer huge tirewear in comparison to Rono so need to find something on that.
The hard tire does require a bit more skillful driving cause it doesn't give as much grip, you have to go and look for it :)

@SkengD Aboe won the race 3secs in front of me.


Oh yea, and to make sure everything is ok for my subscription.
RX-7 with number 14 (color Grigio Argento = some Ferrari silver with black rims) and always willing to start an RX-7 team as well.

I did a 43.7 in like 4 laps, i expect our resident aliens to reach high 39 :D

39's? :scared: Unlikely, imo, unless on lower fuel.

Did some laps round Fuji last night with @Gavin Vickers. Was just about manging to keep up with him. He was lapping in the low 1.44s. Think I did manage a 1.44.0xx on my last lap of a 5 lap race we had. Will be checking the replay out tonight. I must say I'm enjoying this track much more than the Nurburgring. That might change if people start doing laps in the 1.40s! :lol:

EDIT: Current PB - 1:40.648. Not sure there's much left in me though - that's probably about as fast as I can get the car to go atm.

After long training i managed a lone 41.9 not my pace at all way too risky for me i guess i might run 42-43 while in race. On a side note, aboe spitted there a 39.8 i'm no more disappoint, just concerned lol

Only managed 41 6 but couldnt get my tire sounds working .

41's are decent race pace, imo. Getting anything lower is great, ofc, but it's also riskier and likely to lead to inconsistent driving. I for one am aiming for the 41's/42's during the race as they're easily achievable lap after lap.
 
The race lap times will get faster as the fuel load drops off

You will see a few low 39s in the race
 
It would be difficult to homologate those cars into the GT300 category in GT6, imo, mainly due to the higher amount of aero available to some of the GT3 cars. It would mean that they would have to have a significant power handicap to balance them out over a lap, or ten laps etc.

I'd be interested to hear your findings though. Have you tested already? Bear in mind, it's Prohibited Tune, so pretty much only Power and Brakes can be adjusted, iirc.
 
It is too much work to be honest to spec those cars to match the gt300

What Karsten should do is include other gt300 cars like the celica , etc .

If I am still around next season I will give you guys a hand with that .

So far you never even joined up for a race/test/or training.

I blame the sound glitch, freezing and other bugs for absence: They're really annoying me. I WILL appear for the next test. Maybe we can head back to Zahara today.

Might be a good idea to test your own car before thinking of possible future gt3 car integration... >_>

I was hoping to bring my Mercedes SLS to the table.
 
FOUND AN INTERESTING POST CONCENING SOUND ISSUES:

Le_Manuz
i found something strange yesterday
i was the host and as host, you never have sounds issues

when i was on the track some people had sounds issues
when i was out of the track (completely, not registered) the sound was back for those having sound issues
it was highly reproducible, like a switch
i used the button on the right of the goggle
on, sound problems
off, no more sound problems

really strange
and it's not only online, i also had sounds issues in a career race after switching from car to car

so far i found some conditions that trigger the problem
- switching from car to an other one
- not being the host online
- having the host on the track or ready to go on the track
- vocal chat activated (to be confirmed)

possible work around for online (switch off vocal chat) to be confirmed

some of us also had the feeling that sounds are better
do they have released an improved bugged new sound engine version ?
is that problem related to the fact that replays are freezing the ps3 ?

really strange
Click to expand...

So for monday i'm asking all drivers to enter room with the correct car and do not switch to other cars before/while in the room. I hope we won't face problems.

i did actually notice sound bug to be present when going from room to room changing car so there might be something true in this.
 
I've remained in the exact same car for days, yet I've had the sound bug. Although I have been affected by this bug far less than others, so perhaps staying in the same car is beneficial, but certainly not a fix.

Turning the voice chat off in the lobby has no effect.

The host is never affected, I agree with that. I've not tested to see whether or not the host being on-track makes any difference. This is something that can be tested quite easily and if the host remaining off the track fixes the issue then we need someone willing to host the lobby that isn't racing in the series. Possible solution but perhaps awkward to arrange.

I've heard people saying that changing cars several times can actually fix the issue. Another theory was that changing the exhaust on the car has an effect, so change the exhaust to a different one and then change it back again.....if exhausts can't be changed, then perhaps altering the turbo would do the same thing.

Ultimately the fix is going to be required from PD. Until they give us an update, we have no option but to either suffer with no sound, or spend time messing about trying to make the sound work which is just plain frustrating.
 
Lexus a bit off pace at fuji , best is a 41 1 . race pace looks strong but i will be lucky to steal a podium if others are in the low to mid 40s

try sports softs on the fronts - they will last as long as fuel does and save you a pitstop maybe but for me 1 s slower per lap
 
I'm clueless on what has got on me...

fuji gt
first test .43
test race mid 42
last training high 41
today 42.8-43

all while doing mistakes all over the tracks... i did like 3 mistakes in whole last season and i can't make a race without 3 mistakes every 10 laps now, all while being uber off pace compared to last season :banghead::banghead::banghead:

i'm getting mad and i can't understand why the cars feel so different day from day :confused: and it all aggravated since last force feedback update :ouch:

clueless on what to do, really... what FFb setting do you guys run on DFGT? have you guys too been completely set off by the changes?

well, ive got a thrustmaster t500 rs and i really feel that the update has made it better for me, i can feel what the car is doing a lot more than before. however i have not used it for a few months and only just started again last week so it may be my brain and not the update

It's 7pm ad last seasons and chosen by votes. Why you asked?
Click to expand...

You never answered my question about all the people voting when nowhere near that amount show up for race? Doesn't really feel like a correct representation of the people racing. Unless all the people racing voted 7pm that is lol

I just put both on full, 10 10 I think. I can feel my car more after the update I think.
