GT4 WRS Week 10: "Bird-Bird-Bird, Bird is the Word!"

[amp88]

stupid car! I hate muscle cars except for the..........errrr.........

TVRs

 

[Flerbizky]

Yikes... Bad car - Bad track.. Bad everything....

Good thing is I only have to drive this until Turdsday evening - leaving for a week in sunny Turkey friday morning
Btw.. To those who remember - The GT4 Challenge that made me miss the last 2 weeks - I won.. Unfortunately, I can't make the finals as I'll be in... Turkey... And this was my chance in life to be somebody Sucks2Bme I guess

 

[Kent]

This is just great.

I was hoping to get a race that would allow me to earn back my D1 rank or atleast show that I'm not as bad as I looked last week (thanks to rally).

However, with a hunk of, huh, metal, like this it might be a little worse than hard to do.

Oh well... I will go run a few laps then give up some t times.


There goes my chance for... Never mind.

Btw, atleast we can make this car ugly in just about any color we want.

Yes.. The best thing about this Challenge is the color selection.. Now should I go for that Maroon or a nice shade of yellow

TVRs

Question about TVRs. Has anyone else noticed the TVRs resemble tuned down/steroid pumped versions of other countries cars? Example, the Tuscan Speed 6 and the Dodge Viper GTS. Would post a picture but can't get to them right now. But they look similar.

Anyway, just so this post isn't entirly off subject:

Managed to knock 2 seconds off T2 so now I'm at:

T1 - 24.951
T2 - 50.632

 

[Kent]

How about a nice shade of brown to compliment the heap of crap you are driving.

I just put down 2 laps.

First off...
I saw the notes about the yellow lines on the back stretch, but what about the rumble strips at the first right hander of that back stretch.

Do those rumbles symbolize the end of the legal track?

I would hate to be the only guy not going over that rumble with more than 2 wheels.

Also, my t times...
2 laps in...
48.0 t?

Later.

I didn't even think about crossing it until you've mentioned it. So make that 2 guys not going over the rumble with more than 2 wheels.

You Sir - Are correct - Brown it is indeed

stupid car! I hate muscle cars except for the..........errrr......... yeh I just hate all muscle cars. I must say this is one dogs ass of a car as well when it comes to looks. i mean WTF??? err yeh so ill probably give this a couple of goes between exams.

stupid bird

Am I the only one who thinks muscle cars are awesome? Granted, they typically don't handle well but man 60s and 70s cars had MOJO

 

[standard235]

Yay. Maybe I will get a better position this week.

I completly agree with you kenny. The Superbird may be uggggggggggly, but it's got power. I prefer 'Cuda's and Chargers though. Overall, my favorite is the Corvette Stingray 350 (1969), light, fast, and looks nice.

 

[Kent]

Just put down my 5th lap of morning.

46.9

More to come off if I can bring myself to race this any more.

Who knows what will happen in time?

 

[standard235]

I wanted something other than rally. Guess CF didn't want to please me this week.....

This thing slides worse than the rally last week.

Nice cars too! But I'm still the only one who thinks the Superbird is a beautiful looking car

 

[Kent]

46.5 and the novelty is wearing thin.

Don't get me wrong, I'm going to keep working on this week with high hopes for next week.

However, I don't think I can take much more of this.

Still though, atleast I'm getting in some T times early.
Maybe that will give me a chance to look good for atleast the start of the week.

Oh well... I guess it just comes down to the simple fact that I suck at GT.

 

[Tyre King]

Yeay!!!!!!

Tarmac!

Ballstothewall rolls back into the pits after a short break to visit 'Ill'sville'

Gonna love this week, muscle cars are SOooooo much fun!

Makes ya thing of Steve McQueen in Bullitt, balance that throttle and countersteer round the corners with smoke pouring off the inside wheel!

Anyone know where i can download the soundtrack?

CFM, made my week, this has!

Nope, I wouldn't say so. I also don't think the Tuscan and the Viper look similar. They're very different, marketed at different groups of people. The current boss of TVR is a racing driver, so the new cars are powerful but also very light, with a focus on handling and driver enjoyment. The Viper...well...it's a Viper...the less said the better probably

Nice T2, Kent! About 5 laps in and I'm a little under a second behind you. Did I mention I'm glad we're back on tarmac?

T1: 23.080
T2: 47.352

the only yellow bird i love lives on sesame street!
and he probably moves faster and with more grace than this hunk 'o junk. didnt Daan once prove that red cars travel faster anyway?? *thinks back to another place......*

 

[Jpec07]

I'm not sure, but I drove mine in yellow; it worked well. 6 laps is enough for right now, though (don't want to fry my PS2 in this weather)

 

[ROB 256R]

Had a quick session. It's a fun car to drive. Nailed a good clean lap. Can pinch a lot more of the curbs yet though.

23.317
48.191

[Jpec07]

I agree, once you get used to the weight shifting it is a very fun car to drive.

 

[kennythebomb]

Just did a lot more respectable:

T1 - 23.252
T2 - 48.070
T3 - x'xx'xx3

[Kent]

Things just get worse and worse for me.

Sports Hards!?

Well forget about my previous times.

I will run a lap real quick to get something with this new heap of crap setup.

Back later.
