Final Quick Match Races 2-7-18

[Notknown]

In the 600 pp I saw a miura and it was running 1:10.9 not a very good driver (second- again). I am going to try it but it only has 589 pp, just wondering some thoughts on using vehicles with less pp?

If a 557 pp Ram pickup truck does 1:15 laps and can win races, I think about anything can compete as long as you know how to drive it.

Saw ya last night @MOPARbarrett5 Was at a friend's in a day glow green ZZII. Gabbyjo9000 or something like that. Few of us driving the car so don't blame me for any driving stuff.

Point of the comment was it was HILARIOUS to see that truck flying around!

Hopefully I didn't get in your way in between races drifting. During the races you were too far ahead for me to be in your way I think.

Cars I want to try:

• McLaren F1 '94 (it was great on SH at Suzuka Seasonal Race recently)
• TVR Cerbera Speed 12 '00 with a tune @Draggon recommended to me recently (slightly adjusted for DS3 and S3 tyres)
• Lamborgini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce '09 (@Ed_Night tune I think, with tweaks for S3 tyres, used in a Datsun Academy side event Road to Rio)
• Ford GT40 Mark I '66 (not sure I can handle it at 600pp but kudos to the drivers getting solid, clean results with it)
• McLaren MP4-12C '10 (rocket ship at 550pp)
• KTM X-BOW Street '12 (used this at 580pp in Apricot Hill TT long ago on S1 tyres?)

Deep forest is a track I've always loved. Ramming, laggy noobs just give me more time to admire it. There's no penalty for me, here. 👍

EDIT: Had some great races with @kilesa4568 in X-BOW and @wedjim in Huayra while I used insane Impreza!

I tried it with the McLaren MP4-12C. It took me a couple races to get in the groove (tends to become very airborne). After that I was in a race with 4 different ZZII's. I was able to win for several races. It is a fun car to drive.

 

[Wolf68]

I've been having some fun with a Huayra, may need to tweak a few things to make it perfect. I am tired of all the ZZIIs out there just kinda' ramming they're way around the track, although a couple of those guys must have an amazing tune on that car as they are just flying past everyone...

 

[8l23ub]

Saw someone in the Ferrari SP1, and gave it a go, loaded it up to 600pp and it gets lots of bhp and torque while weighing less than the other cars I:d been using, plus its the only car I have lapped in 1m11's

 

[kilesa4568]

I've been stuck on the Citroen GT and Nuvolari Audi for a couple of days and seem to have forgotten all the other cars I've got. The GT is probably my best pack car for mid to low 12s. Huge grip and brakes, loads of down force if you want it and it loves to play when you get bored. Easy to drift the whole track.

It's one of Praiano's tunes.

Thank you for posting up this tune, I'll give it a go when I get a chance....

I had the pleasure of racing with Vanessa6_6_6 AND pjc141(Canadian)a night or so ago. That was interesting.

He took anyone leading out if he didn't have first place. She is a better driver, but just as much of a nincompoop.

Blocked them both, even though she was the only one sending nasty messages after I brake checked her in return. lol

I hate when I let them get under my skin. Leaving straight away from now on.

 

[coryclifford]

Nincompoop! Classic.

Sometimes bullying the bullies is the best thing to do. I was in a room at Midfield a couple of days ago having some great, close and clean races with a couple of people until one of these ''Nincompoops'' entered, but we soon cottoned on to him/her and all brake checked and rammed him/her every chance we could. He/she promptly left and we resumed our racing.

 

[8l23ub]

after getting smashed by pjc for a couple of races my final contribution at deep forest was to use him/her as my brake into turn one for two laps, ruined the races of about another 2 or 3 cars caught up in the melee (apologies to anyone else affected ) but I felt much better for it and left

 

[lasrjock]

I had some fun races last night with Rhyton. He was in a ZZII and I was in an Audi R8 4.2 FSI R tronic '07. We were bumper to bumper for several races. Later in the evening we were joined by some X-BOW R's. Those guys were posting lap times that were over a second faster.

 

[wedjim]

Tonight was some good racing, many dive into turn 1 so hard that I've gotten pushed into others cars quite a lot. But other than that it was a good time racing my Viper ACR 08'! Had a best lap so 1:12.8x and best total time of 3:45.8.

The Viper in this firm handles well, amazing compared to what I expected really. But it lacks on the straights, which I also didn't expect. 50/50 distribution in stock form. I added 75 ballast, back 15 to get 49/51.
Along with changing almost everything else.

 

[BALDY500]

It seems everyone's racing at deep forest, I'm racing at Tsukaba because I'm winning a lot of races, which is not normal
for me lol I tryed deep forest but I found it was mayhem, was I just unlucky?

 

[R CHOPPER]

Just seen a guy in a GT40 1966 smoke the field with a 3m 38s at Deep Forest ,
I wonder if he was using SRF ??? plus its the first GT40 i've seen i think.

 

[coryclifford]

3:38 is way fast. Gotta be a SRF guy.

I've seen people run 3.34s in the ZZ11, the NSX, the FXX, and the R390 Road Car - all must have been using SRF.
Also, I don't know whether others have experienced this, but sometimes cars have an amazing turn of speed - they seem to catch up with you very quickly, almost as though boost was on?

 

[wedjim]

I've tried with SRF on and it works much less often. When it does I'm only gaining about 5-7 tenths per lap. Still almost two seconds overall. Basically 3.39-3.45 without and 3.37-3.43 with it on. The room speed changes more then the SRF effect. At least it's been that way for me.

Going to try and get my ZZ2 to steer tonight, lol.

Yes, I've noticed how much faster some rooms are - perversely, it sometimes seems that the ones that seem to slide around a lot in are the fastest!

ZZ11 likes to slide around corners, and can be steered on the throttle.

 

[wedjim]

Got to have one race in the same room with digtater, then got booted.

But working on my ZZII and made it better. -1.8 rear camber, ride height 90/65, springs softest front and 4 higher in back, dampers 1/5-10/3, toe at -20/-10, downforce 150/250, diff 5-12-5/10-35-5, 40/60 drive, minimum ballast added to get 49/51 weight distribution at 50 setting.
Brakes 6/7.

Trying to get it to turn without being snappy loose in back. Open to suggestions.

 

[coryclifford]

I suggest trying a ZZ with more stock parts, or less work done to it. They are amazingly fast cars as is and only need a little work in my opinion.

Stock suspension
Lower rear height about 10 mm
Zero front camber
.2 to .4 rear camber (you'll notice the difference between those single clicks)
Big turbo
Short trans
No wing
Aero is up to you (start stock)

It's the fastest car I drive out there by a bit.

 

[coryclifford]

Pardon my double post action but…

@bone_tone and @kilesa4568

My connection stinks lately. Pardon any mistakes please. I finally had enough of watching people peel out and fly all over the place. And the last disconnect was enough to call it a day. For now.

Didn't see any problems - it was a pleasure to be in a room with you and @kilesa4568

I left too, when the Italian guy decided to wait a lap, and then try to ram me! Boy was he a sore loser!

This is why I don't do quick match races anymore, btw @coryclifford if a reasonable amount of time you can double post 👍.

 

[wedjim]

Man that Pjc141 guy is wreaking havoc in the QM's! I lost my cool and went backwards when he did to try and keep him from taking out the leaders. Ended up making it worse.

Smh.

Ran into that "player" today... he's an embarrassment to my country. It was in a gold NSX-R LM concept when I was there. I'm having lots of troubles with GT6 online, and of course run into idiots like that when I finally get in... getting to the point where it's not worth trying anymore. The good ones stand out... as rare as they are, but I've blocked more bad apples than found good competition sadly.

Cheers

Fortunately they are in the minority, and I recognise the names of most of them now! I've got used to working my way round them, and,if all else fails, I just go and find another room.

You're right, he is an embarrassment - you get used to seeing some countries with a proportion of dirty drivers, but Canada has never been one of them.
