We need times people!


"Time is on my side, yes it is."


Well, I was running casual 30.5XXs in the NA specster and expect I will be able run a few hot laps in the high 29s once I figure out how to drive the course. All of my times were made while adhering to the qualification requirement Turbo has set in place of keeping at least two wheels on the track surface, therefore not using the run-off area as race track. I found the key areas of concern for maintaining compliance will be the exits of T3, T4 & T10.

I also ran the NB for a handful of laps and was turning identical times to those I did in the NA which reaffirms what we already know (that there isn't a significant performance difference between the NA and the NB) about the two models.

Talon and I had some good races last night but either one or both of us were suffering from lag as his car seemed to be twitching a considerable amount during the three or four races we ran last night. Also, the past two Sunday races I have suffered from "phantom" lag. Seeing as Talon had this same issue last Sunday I am thinking it to be more of a problem on Sony's end then on mine. If there is a problem, I hope that it does not affect any of us on Sunday as it is truly frustrating.

Well I just realized I don't have to bother practicing this track as I will be gone for both races on Sunday. :dopey:


:grumpy:
 
Easy mid 30s? Can run 29s? Looks like B room for me again. Oh well, atleast I am competitive in the Spud points standings... Oops sorry I forgot that those can't be discussed here.

Lol at casual. I'm not good with turn numbers, but for me, the last sector is very important to having a good lap time. I've also been running without using run off areas for my times. Out of my 15 laps or so I've pulled 2 30.7's and one 30.1.

I built a new car last night (same colors don't worry :D ) because I gifted the john deere car to a deserving friend. So those times were run with a 134 hp car 👍

Did Choate51 end up testing the JD Special Specster last night? The few minutes he was in the room last night (after you left to send him his gift) he was running a Nissan Micra as he said he had to make a video of him driving, at least that is what I think he said. Then he just peaced out. He also mentioned he hadn’t played GT5 since Orlando!

Yup he was in the practice room I made later. They've gotta use a "Vlogie" and record their lives between orlando and silverstone. Sounds mildly intrusive but fun to me :) He's not the only one who hasn't played gt5 since orlando either :grumpy: Actually I've only seen 4 or 5 of the silverstone boys online since orlando.

And yeah spank it's stigbane. I'm using it so I can grind my own drivers :lol:
 
No work today so I got in a AM practice session all by my lonesome and hit a 230.090. A few 2.30.1's. 2.29's should be feasible but I see the pole being around 230.0-230.2. Hope to get a good competitive session in tonight after 9est.

Counter why no go on Sunday? Thats upsetting. I enjoy your competition all week including race day

Coolio I'll accept it tonight :P BTW

I'm qualifying tonight sometime after 10 pm EST so in the spirit of fairness, try to show up so there's as much pressure on me to perform as there is for everyone else:tup:
 
Actually it's a "Bloggie". ;)

And I've hardly even used mine. Oops.

Haha my name is cooler. You should get on that ;) Maybe have spank record the last 2 laps or so of the races this sunday? You should have recorded at that autox/drift thing you went to!

Well instead, you can watch me fail miserably with my old dfgt :)

Yeah I've got some footage from that, although the stuff where I had it zoomed in all came out 🤬 quality. I don't mind recording random stuff, but I just don't like talking into the stupid thing.
 
I updated the number of laps for Nurb and Tsukuba to bring the race times more in line with what we've been running. I tried to make the GT Class races just a tad longer than the Spec races.
