GTP WTAC Week 46 : Honda 'S' Cars presented by pvr77


*** Honda first burst on to the automotive scene with the S500 in 1963. The very next year, Honda replaced it with the S600, which was offered as the normal convertible or a fastback coupe. Two years later, in 1966, Honda released the S800 (again offered as a roadster or a coupe). This last version sold more than 11,000 units before production ceased in 1970. Honda's S car wasn't dead, but was in an extended hibernation. In the year 2000, Honda brought back the S car in the form of the Honda S2000. This was a very fitting successor to the original S cars. The S2000 was only offered as a roadster (like the original S500) and was made for ten years before stopped producing this wonderful little sports car. In all, over 112,000 Honda S2000's were sold worldwide, with nearly 70,000 finding their homes in North America. ***

*sigh*

I've let my friend borrow my PSP until Friday so I can't run anymore laps until then. I asked another friend who has GT PSP + console but he forgot and even if he does let me borrow it, it won't be until next week. Plus, El Capitan is one of the tracks that I'm slow at. :indiff:

Luckily this week I can post my times within the last hour, so I have enough time to squeeze in two extra sessions before the deadline.
 
Honda S2000 LM Race Car : 1'49.683 with a slow 0'32.2-3xx first split whereas I usually have a 0'31.8xx. I aim -hope for :scared: a low 1'49.xxx.

Good luck all !

PS : Dan360, I hope you'll amazing times once you got your hand on a psp !
 
Ran my first session yesterday with both cars and put a 1'48.4xx with the LM and 2'00.xxx low with the type V...

On a side note, I was doing a race on La Sarthe and waching the replay noticed I was going to cut the last chicane just a little bit, but made a maneuver like if I was going to hit somebody :scared: and I was like 'na' I didn't do that' :lol: It was funny because I drive all over the place and use "all the track" while doing quick races, so waching that I'm 'unconsciously conscious' and aware of the WTAC rules it's an interesting find.

Also I attached my run with the LM..

see you later!👍

Just managed to run my first few laps of the week with the Type V (I've been playing P.E. 3rd Birthday and finally finished the story).

2'02.5xx.

Haven't tried the LM yet.

At this time of the challenge I would post my final times, but I have a chance to submit it to the final hour. I have my PSP back and I've run two sessions with both cars. My times are:

Type V - 2'01.7xx
LM Race Car - 1'50.1xx
 
I've been reading another book recently (the book is less girly this time!) so I didn't have a chance to run any laps last night or the night before. I hope to get some time to do a few laps today before I submit my times!
 
Me too, in between playing PE 3 I've been reading Dean Koontz's Frankenstein trilogy, very good read, I recommend it for any horror/sci-fi fan.

I did improve my time with the Type V - 2'01.9xx!
 
So, here's my entry. I love the S2000, wish I had more time with it!

With the completion of Week 46 behind us, we are now entering what is almost certain to be the last week of this current racing session. Week 47, it appears, will decide who takes home the trophy... so drive hard!

MVR08 took home another first place finish and that inches him closer to Dan's point total. Dan360 took home second and keep a hold of 1st overall. Seizing third place this week is pvr77, who fended off easyasashii by about .02 seconds! That allowed pvr77 to move back into a tie for 3rd place overall going into Week 47. Congratulations to all!
