I'd like to test drive the 450 class. Depending on how it goes time wise, I might do the 550 but I'll let you know later.👍👍
 
Ok , finish with the 450PP, I've test most of them at racing cruising speed.
One lap to feel the car
One lap for the time
One more lap if i made some mistake or if i think i can push more for technical cars.

Nice job Praiano, you bested my time of a high 7:27 and it took me many laps.. my average was around 7:29 playing it somewhat safe.

edit: do you drive with a wheel or controller?

One car that I contemplated entering was the '91 Skyline GTS-T (?) (The RWD one). It had ~450hp @ 1070 kgs and annihilated all these cars in a straight line. Putting the power down effectively proved to be very difficult on sports hard tires however -- no matter the suspension settings.

Some 4 or 5 superior nice tunes in the 450PP range. You'll love your test drive sessions for sure.:)👍

Your car fit perfectly to my driving style , that's why. It's stiff on springs and safe. good front grip and no surprise.

For the nissan , i've tested this car, it's like a ferrari engine on a 2CV citroen, fast but it can kill you at the first turn. Not a good result at the ring at least .

EDIT: I drive G27

Thanks for testing Praiano, very nice lap times. Good to see the first results come in and Wow, those 3400s are quick here. Time to update mine or get crushed by them online. :lol:
 
Exact , i've checked again now and that's it , 275 kmh under the bilstein panel...
Your car have more potential than the other lexus. But , to explore this potential , you need skills that i don't have to make it work in 3 or 4 laps. For you it must be natural, but i just don't have your skills. :guilty:
The rear end of your car is very loose when you push hard for a pilot like me. Sure i can make it work, but i would need much more laps or a lucky lap to make this happen.
The other lexus is safer and more planted, i reach quickly his potential and this for me at my own level.

><(((((°>°°°°°°°°°°°

Thats true, i tuned to match my driving style and it might not react the best way for everyone :)

I will continue to test 450pp cars tonight, i have 3 cars done other than mine.

Thx for the quick turnaround for the results Laurent :)


Edit: friend request accepted Dom

Edit number 2: tested 3 more cars :dopey:, spent about 30 minutes on each, its going well!


*shmogt, you friend list is full.

I've been so busy this week I haven't had a chance to get behind the wheel yet... looking forward to doing some testing very soon!
 
What a wonderful car! :) Thank you for this one! 👍

I'd felt it a little "jumpy" on Nordschleife but it's a great car, really. 👍
You just made my whole week!:lol:
Was a very rushed last second tune for this. Will most likely revisit the tune after the shootout is over and see if I can smooth out some of the rough edges I feel it still has.
Anyways glad to hear your enjoying it and hope you'll give some of the others here a go as well, should be many very good cars in this shootout.:cheers:

I'm glad I made you happy! ;)
I'm pretty pretentious in choosing my cars and tuners. :cool: :sly:
Waiting for the fine tune when the time will come. :) 👍
 
So I missed the bus today... Let's see if I can't do a class instead now. :)

Just do a class on "how to get around the 'Ring in a bunch of 550PP cars at full speed" instead. :D Much more productive for us. :lol:

If memory serves from last night, I believe your Mustang was on Racing Softs when I borrowed it...:crazy:

Just want to add as a side note, I've driven 4 cars already, 3 laps each a la Praiano, and one of them is definitely in the top 5 tunes in the history of the world:bowdown:.....at least for me anyway...:sly:

Greenlight. Finally :) Had to file taxes, and I have 4,888 reasons to smile, 242 to frown. :)
 
10 450PP cars down, 6 to go. Should be able to soak most, if not all of them up tomorrow, I've got the afternoon and evening to myself. Provided I don't go and do something stupid like buy an MX5. There's been one parked on a forecourt that I drive past, for weeks and weeks now. I can only assume it's a high mileage, undesirable model, because it's gone from £1650 to £1150.

My wallet will be hoping that I finish testing your cars :sly:

Nice one, thanks for the test, i think my car is the easiest to drive fast that's why you feel more confident i think , but the RUF are very very fast too.
Let's see next.

><(((((°>°°°°°°°
 
I am not sure when I'll get on next but send me one if I don't send you one first to expedite the process

osprey73

I'm heading out of town and won't be on PS3 again until Sunday...no rush...if I don't have it then I'll send one.

Take the top and bottom car off and you've got a 16 second spread for 14 cars, nice grouping 👍

Thanks for the ride...
