I couldn't see it but that's excellent, can't wait to start playing hopefully next week so I can start shaving some of my times down.

Thanks... And correction 8.996! Barely in the 8's but it took hella long!

Well it's great to see people knocking their own times down 👍 keep practicing and you jut might be able to get it to 8.8XX ;)
 
@Simple Matt it's crazy just trying to gain .010 of a second. The faster you go the harder it gets. I'm happy with my tune reaching the 8's.

What I need to work on is reaction time online. I'm sure we all any help some of the lag but I'm an old man (32) compared to the quicker reflexes of some of these kids! Kid was going me hell because he got the whole shot. Kept saying his LeMans R8 runs 7's he wouldn't give me a rematch. no normal car on GT5 can get into the 7's. Kids name was DeadlySinz if anyone knows him... I want a rematch. If he gets me again so be it but I want another crack. He got me by like 3/4 length which IMO was a good race. Why not do it again.

Hahaha I haven't run deadlysinz in ages but he has always been quick.. And a tip with the LMQ, watch where you shift.. From first to second should be almost instantaneous..
 
Hey, Donkey who you calling old at 32? Not cool, lol. Yeah I sometimes experience the same online and I hate when it happens cause I know my car is faster.
 
Well congrats its always an achievement to break 8s but question does the ipod app allow me to post pics from my ipod, instead of using photobucket?

Nope... I asked that in the general area and all pics have to be hosted and linked to.
 
Nice job getting into the 8's 👍 Now there's another 8 to catch :sly: I'm still chasing it.

For sure! All the OG's started it off and put the foundation down. I'm just trying to match or come close to the times that they've achieved. I'm close to 8's in the R35 TC and am about 9.1 on my R35 Black.

What car are you chasing an 8 with?

The R8 LMQ, I'm into the 8's too but it's the second 8 I was referring to as in 8.899 :sly:

Ahhh... Gor it LOL! I hit 8.904 earlier! After a few runs its hard to think anyone can squeeze any more tuning out the thing.

Yeah keep trying bro youll get there if you notice that thats fastest that tranny setup is doing, try a higher final and set your gears and do what you did. I have mines at 8.894 but i think i can manage a 8.890 if i put more work in it.
