FITT - Moving on to GT6!

[VTiRoj]

The problem with using any TC is that not everyone has the DLC in the first place. I used the BLiTZ ER34 for the TT. It's not the fastest on the rankings but it's so easy to drive and you don't even need to push hard to beat the gold time by 40 seconds. Since it's pretty much a car in its own class, it works out perfect for the shootout.

For the lulz, why not one of the NASCAR's?

That was the original reason for the question. I know that most of the "regular" tuners probably have it by now but since they can't be shared it becomes a matter of the testers having it to build.

The Blitz is an interesting idea. I had thought of it but I've never driven it so I wasn't sure what to expect.

NASCARs were a thought but they are too high on PP. I wanted to avoid having to use the power limiter to get a car in. I'd have used the Citroen in that case.

So then, Blitz @ Nurb or R10 @ Spa? Preferences? Thoughts? Complaints? .....cookies?

I'll take some BLiTZ cookies. 👍

Also just want to remind everyone that TCv1 (or in this case the Mini version) is going to run for a couple of months, it can run in the background of the shorter FITT events easily. So don't wait for it to start/finish before keeping the flow of FITT going. 👍

10 days to the start of mine shootout... I'm a bit nervous, but I think everything is gonna come ok..

 

[DigitalBaka]

Those looking for a quick way to blow a lot of credits on tuning a car...go check out the STC thread.

Like now.

Seriously, go.

Also, Harv, please add it to the current events and feel free to promote shamelessly. 👍

It'll be sponsored by the GP, so you'll be fine.

I did a brief search but didn't see anything. Any outline for this event yet Nascar? PP based? Weight and HP based? Tracks?

Not sure now familiar you are with the GT500's but it's awfully tough to beat the Takata Dome NSX at most tracks, especially the bigger ones so you might want to give some thought to giving it a category of it's own or excluding it to broaden out the competition. If it hasn't been decided, I'd also suggest nothing better than RH tires because the cars are just too darn easy to drive and tune on RS tires with their light weight and downforce.

GT500: 500HP or less (I'm thinking in breaking in the less powerfull car to see what his HP limit, to limit the horsepower) and 1200Kg.
GT300: 300HP or less (same as the GT500 thing) and 1175Kg.

any news on the next shootout event?

Well, some background info:
- SuperGT GT300/500 and JGTC cars are the star of this show
- Begins tomorrow, ends in a week or two's time, I'm guessing
- Track is…either the 'Ring, Fuji or Suzuka, if I'm correct.
- Limits are as follows:
500hp for GT500 (duh) and 1200kg
300hp for GT300 (double duh) 1175kg
- RH (?) Tyres

 

[sheephead99]

Gt300? Didnt know there was such a thing. So it will only be race cars (super gt Japanese crap)?

The GT300 is…well, as the name says, a lower class for GT cars with 300hp. GT5's options for these cars are…let's see…
- RE Amythingy RX7 (two models)
- Cusco Subaru Impreza (two models)
- Lexus IS350
- Autobacs Gariyara (two models)
- Wedsport Celica (not sure about the class it's in)
- C-West Slivia S15 (not sure about the class it's in)

And yes, all race cars. No, you can't diss it.

 

[sheephead99]

I've found the gt300 cars and 2 of them are my amongst my favourite in the game. This will be one close shoot out like.

When you do post your shootout, Nascar, could you list all cars that can be run? I'm a little thick in the head
