[nordschleife51]

I wont be able to run the room tomorrow.

Likewise, I won’t be able to host Sunday morning, due to the Easter holiday. Happy Easter everyone, see you next weekend.

 

[Ray-Ray]

Well I will probably be up and doing something. If nobody's hosting, we'll figure something out. I gotz to drive y'all. I have to drive 90 miles tomorrow to pick up the wife. I know me and my truck; Just retuned for 108 Ethanol, which is to knock the dust out and it's going right back to about 70% power. I digress, I can't drive on a beautiful Sunday in my ride without, hear me out. Exceeding the posted speed limit. Max is 80mph here.
I'll be up, cappuccino in my left and driving! #dontputthatevilonme

That's not encouraging for those interested in purchasing a Fanatec product (like myself).

Maybe. It would depend on why the lending company thought that it was necessary to remove him. This wasn't fully explained in that article.

 

[MasterGT]

I WOULD WELCOME SOME FRESH IDEAS ON TRACK / CAR COMBOS

Just about any car works on any GT track. Obviously, an F1 or Gr.1 style car on Tsukuba is a bit over the top, but they would work on Miyabi. That only means we all are under the same restrictions and limitations.

Don't be afraid of experimenting with ideas.

Just wondering about using boost on weak for any of the B.O.P races. It would spread out the traffic a little bit.

I think boost on strong is good for cars that we tune, because there can be a big gap in the performance, and it helps to keep everyone reasonably close in those races.

hi guys. Sorry about last week but I was bitten by the Dengue Fever Mosquito and was feeling terrible. Still not ok but, on top of that, my internet is down since yesterday and I dont know if it will be back tomorrow. If its ok, I'll open the room. We will be improvising. See you or not tomorrow.

 

[coryclifford]

I can help. If I’m awake.
Feel better!

 

[Luiz Frota]

Morning, still out of internet. The companie is coming this afternoon. Maybe tomorrow

 

[coryclifford]

We had a good time today
It’s not a normal Saturday without you Luiz

 

[MasterGT]

You should have hung around for Nordschleife. 👍

 

[coryclifford]

Did I fall asleep?

ATV/Dirtbike trails in Colorado came up the other morning in the lobby. Couldn't figure out how to link youtube to the ps5 app so i'm putting a link here to give an idea of the riding out here. It's a Yamaha video from last years Yammy ride but will give an idea of what it's like riding in the Mtns. almost all over 9000 ft altitude. Biggest reason I settled out here is the trail systems. . Now back to your regular programming....

Mark_us, be sure to bring your atv's if you're ever out here Oregon way. I have a ~1 to 2 hour trail ride to my mining claim near Josephine Creek. Seems like something you might very much enjoy.

These ATV's look like a blass to ride. Back in as they say "tha day" (late 1960's - early 1970's) when I had my bikes (350 Kawasaki BigHorn and 250 Yamaha MX) we rode the Trask River burn near Tillamook for the most part. Lots of hill climbing some trails and a thing the PNW is noted for,, MUD. In those times to the best of my memory there was no such thing as an ATV unless a guy wants to call the Honda 3 wheeler an ATV. We were 2 wheel "wanna be's" because we had seen video of Malcom Smith, Steve McQueen and Rolf Tibblin so we thought maybe we could ride somewhat like them,, of course that was a LMAO!! We got tossed off alot but THANK GOD no one got hurt very bad. Riding in the mountains is a blast.

Got my 1st bike at 12 and lived on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona which had open grazing for livestock (no fences). Time of our lives! Eventually raced Mx for a few years but it was just crazy expensive trying to be competitive. Good times!

Spousal unit crossing a wet area. One of the 8x she did it that day. 1st on the way out to the destination, Knik Glacier and 7x on the way back, cause it was fun.
