GT 7 GEEZER CLUB

[Ledbetter]

Hi,

New geezer here. PSN name My-Kull. I’ll send friend request to host before my first race And races thereafter. I don’t give out my birthday on the interwebs, so in my profile it says i was born in 1958; in fact I was born in 1956 and turned 66 in 2022.

One question: no tuning means I have to use an untuned car or restore one to pretuned state? I’m not sure I saved the original Sheet 1 for many of my tuned favorites. But, I get it if that’s the rule so be it.

I look forward to racing with you all, have a headset and like to race clean and courteous better than I like to win by hitting another car intentionally. If I knock someone off accidentally I give the place back. This has confused some drivers I’ve raced with before, who apparently think it’s a trick when I pull off the racing line and slow for them to get their position back. Please send a friend request if you like. See you soon, need to get the schedules worked into my free time. Best regards to all.

Hey there. I typed a lot, erased it, and decided to say, no tune is a stock car. Tires would be the variable.

Hi there and welcome. No tune races will almost always have BoP turned on, Group 2,3,4 etc. So no need to redo any setups you have. If you do need to go back to stock, adding a sheet in the tuning section will reset everything to default.

Good luck and see you on the track.

Can you Beat 1000 plus horsepower?

 

[coryclifford]

Here’s a good general overview of the rabbit hole I’ve been down for some time. Coincidentally came up on my Youbetubee today. We’re very young and have to think cool stuff has happened already.

I don't have any engine swap cars, but I do have an Obelisk 2500 that I can make to any PP I want. It's about 75 feet long and is unbeatable in the straights. I usually take the corners a bit wide with the front tires on the outside track limit, rear tires hug the inside. Dual steering makes this possible. Other cars trying to pass before I straighten out might find it a bit difficult. Impossible once I get the hammer down going straight.

 

[coryclifford]

Only the 2500!?

Weak.

Um, like, holy crap!

 

[SnakeEyes427]

Gee, I wonder what the meda car is? 🙄

Then again I have not booted the game up today to see what that race is. Daily A?

But, I'm less and less interested in the Sport races as (A-hole).

 

[coryclifford]

Pardon that post of mine detailing the engine swap compatibility. Alaska Richard and Floral Al (ha, floral. Could be Floating Al), and I were driving around earlier and it came up. And that was easy.


Eric, the holy crap part is your credit count. Spare a million?

 

[Luiz Frota]

Um, like, holy crap!

So I’m staring at the screen, like usual. And I saw the 1981 Porsche clock was actually at the coryect time.

Nah.

Different Porsche. Yep, it’s keeping time.

And six minutes later, still on time. Neat.

If they can do that they can, for a start, properly phase the moon. The next step, position the moon in the sky for the real and imaginary tracks. The obvious next step the major constellations.

 

[coryclifford]

Get to surveying!

Position the moon? Here’s one (!)

No need, really. I like the wheel, it does what it’s supposed to do. The new QR adapter is rock solid. At some point I will add a wheel with XBOX compatibility, near the time when the new Forza Motorsport releases.

Hey Geezers finally done with the fishing pole room the racing chairs going there soon. Only took three months and yes I need that many poles and when I go out my boat I usually take at least 10 with me so they all get used. remember I used to fish king fish tournaments.
