Hey, I found it laying around in my main account garage, don't know when I bought it - think it was during the 1000 for the trophy. Im still at 202 and I saw in the opening post said 206, so hopefully a few more hp with oil change and break-in would be nice :).

Standard cars don't require break-in, even from 0 miles.

Try an engine rebuild, and if that doesn't work, buy one from the OCD.

Ok thanks, ill try that. Is it supposed to be at 206 at its highest?

Nice t1 by the way.

Yes, 206. It shows 205 in the garage screen before you load the car, then 206 in the tuning screen.

And :cheers: on the T1. The track has always been good to me. This is the track I got promoted to D2 on, back in the GT4 days. :)
 
I have to ask though Al.... what made you think I'd post a dirty sector guide video? :boggled: .....I win, everyone else is DQ'd :mischievous:

I contemplated not posting the question and thought why would you post a dirty video? So I thought I would take a chance and hope I didn't insult you. I asked just for the fact that maybe someone else was thinking that passing over that line was bad. (like me!) :dunce:

Giving this combo a shot. I'm so inconsistent with GT5 WRS combos, but, my inconsistent participation might be the cause of that.

Getting there, the track is starting to come to me, moto of the day: shift less, take better lines, slower is faster.

Hey now, not so fast! I admit I am having an amazing week. I must be the new PS3, but I dont know if I'm quite ready to be lumped up there with those guys.:nervous: I'm generally too inconsistent.

But this track and car are FANTASTIC! I still crash more than I don't, but when I am on a fast lap it seems I can do no wrong. Places where I expect the car to step out and go around, I just flick the wheels or modulate throttle and it grabs. I ran a lap that I still don't believe, I have checked and re-checked to make sure the thing is valid, dropped like 3/10 overall, and I will post it a little later when I get home from work and review it one more time.

I'm just on one this week.
 
She already said I can have one...I just have to wait til August. I can be patient.

Buy used one now for 50 $, sell it back in August when you get the other one. Patient till August, I don't know how to do that!!!:bowdown:

I *think* they do require break-in if you get one from a ticket, but I'm not 100% sure.
 
Come on Div 3!
Surely I cant keep the top seat warm for too long. Im not used to these dizzy heights.:nervous:

I'm just gonna leave that here. I may even just walk away from the Playstation and forget this even exists.
 
Something was wrong with my old mr2, had every legal upgrade but it was stuck at 202.

First 10 laps in the new one at 206, got a better run up the hill in t2, and better exit from the final turn.

T1 24.557
T2 30.174

A slow t1, but t2 and 3 made up 2.5tenths at the line.
 
Got a set of laps in while baby slept this afternoon. T3 SUCKED though!

OK - This isn't funny. All you guys passing me while I'm at work. :grumpy:

Wobble wobble...making me sea sick

What's wobbling on you, the car on the straights?

I've had that at times when trying some different setup things, but never settled on that setup, as I found it to be unstable in turn 1 as well.

I think it's a fanatec thing, lots of standard cars seem to have wobbling issues and this long straight I struggle a bit to stay in a straight line.... it's roughly as bad as the Evo X the other week on SSR5, but the more I lap, the more I get used to it - it's more about getting used to it I think - I have settled on using Linearity of 20 and Deadzone of 10 now and it's slightly minimized but if I up those numbers to eradicate it, I can't drive round the track....which is far worse :ill:

Can't be too bad cos I've improved massively this evening (Just edited my splits above) :lol:

Edit: I should also say that I've improved because your most recent settings edit suited me better Kev 👍
