GT Academy 2015 North Africa

[sems4arsenal]

I just finished the weekend lol ... currently me and @Mamaghi are waaay ahead of the third . the track used was silverstone international with the black gt3 and all settings off exept abs 1 and automatic transmission .... we had like 5 laps to make the best time but if we want we can stay untill the end to play more . I did 1.03.8xx . the third have done 1.04.850 so yes there is a biig gap between the second and third . they said they are going to choose the 20 fastest gamers in this TT and make a small final in a nissan showroom to choose the 5 that will represent morocco . the wheel used though is a driving force GT

so gents what are your actual real names?

 

[drspeedy]

You mean this thing?

if so then i guess that's the same race as the ones we have. and be thankful you're using only one DFGT we have like random wheels half of which are now broken. also we have allegedly suffered a few counts of cheating and the organizers are yet to do anything about it so be thankful it's only one rig where one guy is watching everyone play.

also 1:03:xx is a bit slower then the 15 or so top guys so far so good one you ma man we hope to see you guys even tho i might be around 15th now and my chances of making the final are getting smaller but you will definitely get to see @sems4arsenal since he is now second

what kinda tires are you guys using? also how many tries do you get? or do you get to go all you want?

yes this car . we are allowed to do 3 laps .... if one want to do more he should wait untill there is not a lot of people . You guys have unlimited laps but we have only 3 laps ( yesterday were 5 `)

Hey guys,

Same car, same track, just like you guys "1st 1.03.4xx, 2nd 1.03.7xx, 3rd 1.04.1xx" the wheel we are using here is an old gt force with automatic transmission only so our times are a bit slower.
In general the event is well organized, and one rig isn't a bad thing altogether.
We are happy with what we got considering the fact that it's the first edition.

Here is some photos

Hello to everyone, my name is Ilyes, and i come from GTAcademy morocco. I made the second time so far in my country, even if i had Never played GRAN TOURISMO before. but that does not meen that the competition was easy. We are about 6 competitive players so far and the fastest is MARWANE aka (MAMAGHI) . It was a very nice and plesent event, that permited us to know each other (moroccan sim racers) and everyone had interesting comments to make.
A Big thank you to Nissan GT Academy offering us the chance to make a dream come true and a big thank you to the moroccan organizers (ahmad, and all of his crew) that were there for us.

best regards to all SEYLISIM

Hi everyone ! My name is Saad and I'm also from GT Academy Morocco. I'm actually 4th with a 1:04:5xx, but I've never used a wheel to play with it on GT6, and I didn't touch the game for 9 mouths. I've met @Mamaghi, @SEYLISIM and @drspeedy, and learned a lot from them. I hope doing a time under 1:03:5xx.
So see you guys this weekend.

 

[Warbeast101]

@Mamaghi this picture is funny

 

[Mamaghi]

Any Algerian members in the house?

It seems like the answer is no

No news at all from Algeria

 

[Mamaghi]

Hey

The Moroccan GT Academy Promoter told me that at least one from each country "Morocco, Egypt, Algeria" will be Present in Silverstone.

Hey

The Moroccan GT Academy Promoter told me that at least one from each country "Morocco, Egypt, Algeria" will be Present in Silverstone.

We are being told something a little different: 1 from algeria, 1 from morocco, and since egypt is kind of a central hub for north africa we get 4 spots (unfair for you guys i know but that's the way that it is) and at least we now know that the algerian will be the first one to go home think these guys have any talented drivers?

[drspeedy]

don't worry my friend am getting some training too, and i will be aming for 1.01.xxx

what is your best time so far ? 1.01 is not possible I think . the best would be 1.02.4xx

 

[sems4arsenal]

what is your best time so far ? 1.01 is not possible I think . the best would be 1.02.4xx

Possible with a manual and loads of practice.

 

[drspeedy]

Possible with a manual and loads of practice.

yes with manual but automatic I don't think so

 

[drspeedy]

@Mamaghi what is your best lap so far at home with the same setting and stuffs ?

 

[Growling]

So you're not French after all @drspeedy ??

 

[drspeedy]

So you're not French after all @drspeedy ??

no I changed my mind I am entring gt academy in Morocco in france they choose just 4 -_- while here I can tell you all what I need to do is to pack my bags and wait for race camp . to be successful in life you not only need to work hard but you also need to be smart I chose the easiest way lol I find that it is really really hard to qualify in france when they choose 14 . Now with just 4 I had to be realistic and find another way lol
what about you ?

 

[Saadasrii]

Someone told me the other day that the algerians are actually fast. We need to see their times

 

[Growling]

[Mamaghi]

Here All you need is to pack your bags, and wait for race camp lol, good for you

 

[SEYLISIM]

hi everyone, i think that the algerians are fast also, am just training on SIMRACEWAY on pc since i cannot play on gt6, and i did a 1.01.765 but i set the car myself. diff set to a higher number, and i played also with the brakes bias and the splitter are the rear wing etc etc , So yeah, i agree that 1.02.xxx is actualy the best you can get out of GT6 with a good RIG!!!
CHEERS

ps: the track in simraceway is laser scaned, so it is realistic enough!

 

[Iceman23]

Hello People, guess i'm the First and only Algerian here haha


If you think we're slow let me correct you, n°1 has 1.01.xxx, 2nd & 3rd 1.02.xxx & 9 guys with 1.03.xxx

we also have only one rig with a driving force GT wheel all settings off except ABS and you get to choose automatic or manual transmission, Track used is also Silverstone international with the black GT-R @drspeedy mentioned

we get 3 laps / day more if you wait a lot even if there's no one

Organiser’s bit strict here as i speek for my self i did a 1.07.032 on my 12 lap knowing that i have no experience with wheels and i still has many in reserve yet i'm being told that i'll get one more last chance to do at least an 1.05.xxx or there is no point i keep trying -_- feels kind of unfair ..

yet this is a great opportunity to ralise dreams ^^'
