FITT RUF Challenge

I had to look that up...

It isn't as interesting as it sounds, or maybe it is if you like medical stuff.

I initially thought it might be a new character in Star Wars: The Force Awakens...

Vasovagal syncope

The name makes sense after reading the definention of it. I've blackout in the past but that was due over exsertion and excessive stress. Same cause or different? I could't quite understand all of it.
@coryclifford ty on the PL catch I assumed and everyone knows what that means.

Well, it could be a character from Star Wars.. It sort of sounds like one actually.

Stress and blood pressure does link with blackouts. This is why the doctors usually go on about it so much when you go for a check up. The vasovagal syncope I am reflecting on though is low BP following Total hip replacement surgery. Different set of circumstances but similar process to a blackout.

My tune has been rectified now. Power limiter is back within regulated ranges.

 

[joaosoarescso]

Im at work and i just saw shaun tune and i don't know if my power limit is up to regulations

I think it is, but im not sure and its something that's bugging me right now.

Are you talking about Open Track Day Class? If so, you have time to check and sort it out if it is out of the reg range.

It's appreciated anyway. Your hired as our new QA person. As soon as I have figured out how to reflect on Vasovagal syncope, I shall revise my post.

Hmmm, I thought it said something else ...that's what I get for reading quickly!

Don't ask....

Hmm. I won't.. Anyway. How you finding the Old School Cars?

I start testing tomorrow morning. Probably not smart because after that I have a 2 hour driving assessment test towards my British drivers license.

Best of luck with that. Both the testing and the driving assessment test..

I'll need it cuz after a few hours throwing these cars around Trial Mountain my nerves will be shot. I'll be more edgy than a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs!

 

[joaosoarescso]

the CTR2 haves 96.3 i thought it had 94.3 for some reason... but still its way underpowered just reaching 575

Adding more power doesn't always mean a fast time. A Lotus Elise doesn't have much power but it is really fast regardless. This track won't penalise you as much as others as it repays a great handling car rather than a high powered car with better laps times most of the time.

What amazes me is the pure speed this car gets on the home straight, and the fact that i'm only using 2 wheels that power up the whole thing, i seen replays over and over again seeing how the car behaves and i'm like

i think i did the 3400S beginner challenge and went straight to the expert one

First glance all settings are good sir. I'll test build it tonight if no one does it first.

Bah only one hairy turn on TM-R, The first one.

The bump in the tunnel can be pretty vicious sometimes.. I have lost a few good laps by carrying too much speed over that thing.

Build is fine. No issues. Good to go.

[coryclifford]

I'm at 2:03.532 in my CTR2 and five more times all in the :03s, so I might be at that point.

Pretty much where I am at, but my settings look obnoxious. Not sure how it will go over, but I'm good with it. 2:03.549

I like Suzuka but the car doesn't seem to like it nearly as much. Odd combo.

I thought the same thing, I usually enjoy 4wd's and I'm fond of Suzuka but I just couldn't put the two together in this case

Personally don't like the car or the track. But I found a way to be fast, for me anyway. Not sure the testers can get the same but we shall find out.

How's the PS3 coming along, back in action yet?

Yes it is. Technical track stubborn car. = great challenge.

I look forward to seeing it

 

[ugabugaz]

I agree.

I took out the CTR2 again to see if I could do something with it. I promptly shut off my PS3 after 30 minutes of effort. Compared to the RGT - It's not that much faster (1, 1.5 car lengths on a good day at the main straight) - which is promptly scrubbed off at the first corner because the brakes are horrid. Going into the S-Curves it feels like I'm operating a container ship going into port even with the maximum amount of weight reduction possible. I managed mid 3's with the same exact suspension settings I have on the RGT and like 25/75 split. I'll wait until the top CTR2 comes out and give it a go but I'm not expecting much . I love Suzuka as a track too...GL boys.
