I forgot your not Amurican so you might not know the joke behind the "Powerglide transmission"....Thanx for the complament...I do feel like Ive gotten a little faster....Thanx to faster guys in here that are pushing me....

I sort of assumed it was crap, and from the results of my googling, it really seems to be the case. Old and crappy, right? :lol: Or is there more to this Powerglide thing? :D
 
Well, Kat and the Hamster have passed me. Back to work. :mischievous: ***EDIT***-Managed to get the same exact time as Loaded....I'm higher on the boards by 1 position though, so I'm in 2nd place for now. ;) I can't go much faster...maybe a tenth or 2 at most....my car just doesn't have the grip. :scared:

arrghhh im gonna get chooooooo :mad:. Been playing ghost recon these past two days, so after work im going to go grocery shopping, BBQ for some chicken tacos, grab a beer and spend the rest of my night trying to get my time down.
 
Yeah I had the time this weeked to put some time in on the track and that is probably the best time I can get....Ive been messing with my gear ratio's to do better.......But I dont know enough about them to help..seems like it makes me slower when I mess with them....Any tips Wiggs???
PM sent.

Thats pretty much sums it up....."old and crappy"......Chevy LOVED those things back in the day...I for one hated them.....
 
Weird how you managed the exact same time as me Wiggs, lol. Hopefully I can beat it, atleast by a little lol. Cant let you take that second place cus I need to catch up in points!

I'm just gonna sit back and wait until you guys improve your times before I run again. I think the ol' Bimmer has a little more left in it. :)
 
Damn, I miss racing with you guys. Have to squeeze every HP out of the old TDI next Saturday in order to make the race (about 500km back and forth on our trip)... :D

ps. Only 440000km in the clock of my MKiv Golf, still going strong...!

I can't say that I miss losing to you. :P Some of your best competition is racing in the other class or not taking part this season. Fezz, DC, hennessey, and maybe the Hamster, have really been the only guys to give you a challenge...but I do hope you are able to make enough races to try and defend your title though.

Mwhhahha! Just makes you try harder and improve your driving! ;) I'm not THAT good after all, if you look at the LB's.

That's a bit of a downside with this multiclass thing, you can't race "with everyone". I'm eager to see how it feels though, never raced multiclass in Forza. Not with AI nor real people! I bet it's crazy and nervewrecking!

Uhhmm, yes you're THAT good. I could probably give you a run for your money in F, E, and D class though...at least make you work harder to earn the poles and wins. I'm just not as good in B class. And it's very stressful racing multi-class....you don't want to ruin someone's race by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I know I lost some time when I was being passed in the last race...Loaded was able to make up some ground because I slowed down a little when the R2 cars were passing me thru the corners.

I think it's more scary to pass you guys. I don't know if you see me and I'm going at you with twice the speed and half the time to react :scared: You already saw what happened the first time I misjudged :lol: I try to avoid slowing you guys down, and maybe it's better you guys stay on your racing line on the tight corners because you aren't that much slower in slow corners than us.. We out accelerate easy after that. I see this is endurance racing too.

How's the weather btw Wiggs? I saw on the news there was a storm somewhere near?

Yeah I think it's more stress on you guys trying to get around us. It's not too hard to tell when you guys are coming up to pass us..I just look at the track map for the faster cars coming up and also look at how close/far away the person is behind me in my class on the HUD. The weather isn't too bad here....it's raining but the storm is further to the west. Kat is closer to the really bad weather than me and Chris.
 
We have had a bit of flooding up this way too. Actually got sent home from work today due to it. :D

You won't be so happy if the flood comes your way :D But good to know your guys are good. Let's hope Kat is too!
 
Yeah no worries here.....Looks like its going to be a typical Tuesday here...Its going further West....kinda disapointed....that my Hurricane Party was cancled......But Jack Daniels never goes bad......
 
Passed again by Loaded and Hamster. I hope you guys are done....I can't go much faster. I won't have time to run again until tomorrow.
 
How you guys holding up there, with those storms and hurricanes? Seems it has reached Louisiana, any of our guys from there?
 
2 hours of trying to top hennessey and gained .1 on my quickest time but still .1 off hennessey. :banghead:

I had a 57.667 as my quickest at one point and on my .615 I was .2 up on the .667 time but didn't drive it in as hard as I should have on that last left hander. :banghead:
 
Back in 2nd with 1:11.651.....and can go a little faster if need be. :D
!!!! I was watching some replays last night and I think I saw some points where I can improve. The first turn kills me though, If i dont get it exactly perfect than I lose so much time. Same with the very last turn as well.
