Garage Showdowns! Join Discussion to Make Future Events Better!

You don't grow old and then stop playing games... You stop playing games and THEN you grow old !!

That is what I keep telling my significant other :)
 
I tell her gaming is strictly therapeutic. I don't do it for fun, it's just that I'll go insane if I don't. Mind you, I'm not addicted or anything, I just can't stop playing. ;) :P

On-topic: only 1 more day till the events are changed once more. When we know what they will bring, we will know what car and track will be used for the next showdown. In the mean time, enjoy the time off. ;)
 
We're not getting paid for racing here so if it isnt for fun then why bother right ?

I got shunted badly out of one of the races by a non-player so was happy to cruise back to the finish line and spend the last 2 laps watching the cars blast down the straight.. cheering Wayne on...hooting and hollering. My wife thinks I am too old for this sort of game ;)

Yeah I seen you do that. I want to go down to the first corner and watch all the cars come down at 250+km/hr and slam on the brakes nose-diving angrily and jostling for position.:dopey:

Correction, you will know what car, we will discuss what track.;) (Hopefully Eiger)
 
Car has been chosen (pending we all agree on it) and track is in negotiation so expect an update later today with more details.
 
Well seeing as I just about run this event, I think I cn safly anounce the next car/track combo!

Car: BMW Z4
Track: London 500 PP



LET SHOWDOWN 3 BEGIN!
I'm sure 3 of the 4 garages will start getting tunes out to their most loyal or any announced drivers during the week. Showdown 3 is now taking entrants! And it's going to be a cracker jack Showdown I'm sure!
 
You're signed up Timppaq.


Now is a good time to mention that the TLD Z4 should be purchased in Merlotrot Metallic. It's a maroon.
 
I'll Be there too :sly:

888 I take it? I'll sign you up.

Hmm, sign me up for DC again, I want to have another crack at getting NLxAROSA's tunes to the finals.

Yes sir! Good luck in your quest.:sly:

I would like to take part. sign me up for DC please.

Uh huh, I see, good to have you on board mate.:)

I am definitely in with TLD. i missed the finals in the viper but i am back to represent.

Good to have you back.👍

Sign me up for NTSC 888 please.

You and your 888.:P I'll sign you up.:sly:

I'd like to represent DC again in NTSC region. Thanks.

...that is if DC participates.

DC will participate, he came up with the car. However NLxAROSA will be away for this week, so don't expect a tune this week just yet.👍

I am in!
Representing TLD in the NTSC division.

Let the fun begin!

Thanks mate, good to have you on board.:)
 
I've got a base setup going at the moment (needed to escape exam study for an hour or two), Will hopefully finalise and post it up tomorrow or thursday as i'll be finished with exams by then.


I'm glad to have Earth on board for ntsc ;)

Yeah, I think your garage will be a force to be reckoned with this Showdown. I still remember how fast you were around London.

Yeah i'm hoping so. The ntsc races were my undoing last time.

London is just a track that I really test my luck the way I take some corners. Similar thing to eiger for me really but i'm mostly experienced in fwd/awd cars on those tracks so who knows how I'll fare. I've never been the best at rwd cars.

I wish 700pp london with r3 tyres would return :(

What kind of laps were you two able to get out of the car standard? Won't bother asking for laptimes with your tunes as I expect there has to be some kind of secrecy.

No secrecy really.:lol: There arelp times in TLD. I get around a 2'04 flat in my Z4 when tuned, I think 2'03s are possible but I'm not driving it much yet. Can't remember the stock times.
 
nice work. I was getting a 2'04.8xx standard and got the car down to 2'03.7 so far. I want to get it down to 2'03.5 hopefully by the time my tune is done. Camber,toe, spring stiffness and part of my gearing still to go in setting up.
 
Bit hard to say. Dutch Customs is closed for holidays till end of this week so he will start on his tune then and I guess next showdown may be the weekend after otherwise will be a week after that.
