Yes, it's "hating".
Never mind the fact that your car is slower than my T200 FWD despite being a better version of the same car to start with and being more highly tuned.
No, I'm quite sure the problem is that you insist on entering "replicas" of cars that don't even come close to meeting regulations.

Alright, because there has been a bit of controversy over Tak's DC5, I decided to test a stock DC5R, Tak's DC5R, and RJ's DC5. All cars were equipped with Sports Hard grade tires.
Laptimes:
1. RJ's DC5 3.05.754
2. Tak's DC5R 3.07.094
3. Stock DC5R 3.08.557
Scores:
1.RJ's DC5 99
2. Stock DC5R 96
3. Tak's DC5R 95
The stock DC5 felt the best to me, followed by RJ's DC5, with Tak's DC5R just behind that. RJ's felt the most capable and powerful while Tak's felt the slowest because the exhaust made the stock gearing worse somehow (for this track anyway).
Controversy over. Tak made a DC5R slower than a T200 car. For the love of forced induction, stop making replica cars and entering them here. This is a tuning competition, where you show what you are capable of tuning, not copying. You're showing off someone else's tuning skills and not yours. That is not what this competition is about.

Guys, stop arguing.
Tak, these people will stop arguing about you if you attempt to make your car match up with the others. I don't care if you make a replica, as long as it's an approximately 300hp replica, just be competitive.

Hei
Mine was right out of the factory, with Sports Hards equipped to be fair.
Edit: I'd like to point out that I'm not trying to biased towards anyone. My view was as objective as I could make it.

I agree. If you make the car competitive there should be no complaints, no drama. If you enter something obviously lacking I'm not sure you should get to gripe about feedback, even if it is on the harsh side.

Not trying to argue. But Touge Showdown is about the feeling and the handling of the car, isn´t it?
Well, nevermind if you dislike my opinion. I respect all. Sure it´s a replica, and maybe he shouldn´t have entered it here, but... I repeat, I think it´s more about the feeling of the car and not all about the speed. (My opinion, hasn´t to be yours). Now call me a fanboy.

Whoa! What the hell happened? I leave for school, and this happens...
Anyway,
Laughable.
Tak, I've been bombarded with your messages stating your feelings towards Hei. I've spoken to him about it, and I've also told you to deal with him. I'm starting to wonder if you have actually talked to him.
Hei tends to be negative, quite a lot, and we all know that; but that's how he chooses to judge the cars!
If you don't like what's happening, then leave. Simple as that.
Take Onboy's advice. If you wish to make 'replicas', at least make the car drive like the real thing, and don't just use the same settings. It's a tuning competition for damn sake!
Apparently, you don't seem to take advice quite well.
Lastly, when have I ever described myself as "big and all"? Call me lazy and "big and all", I don't care. You will never know the things I do when I'm not behind a computer monitor, or off the internet, and so will I when it comes to you.
Alex, I'll be accepting your FR this weekend. I'm currently busy with school. My apologies for the delay.
That's one more thing I'll have to point out. Delays. There WILL be delays, due to me being in school again.
Anyway,

I leave for a bit, and come back to T300…with the air in here no different to how it was in T200's end.
Anyway, Alalalalalala, whatever-happens-now-I-don't-care, alalalalalala. *sticks fingers in ears, hoping the fight goes away*
Also…I'll be in T400.

You might have to wait for GT6 'till the fight is over.

If the Hot Version Showdown returns in GT6, I will be competing here once again since I've made the decision for a touge comeback to see off GT5.

I actually am a bit offended that an entrant does not feel we are worthy of an original tune and quite frankly it's made worse by the fact that he refuses to do this by entering cars that aren't even competitive. It may not show very well given my experience in tuning being what it is but I have put an honest foot forward to at least create a tune that is original and meets all regulations while not being overly limited. Just for the record it's nothing personal between me and Tak as he's done nothing to me outside of the Touge Showdown, so don't take it as such. I'm just a little offended that an entrant does not feel we as a group are deserving of an original tune.
Edit: Change of plans for my T400 entry. I will be entering a AWD. Watch out I hope the extra ordinary(for me) times are indicative of a fairly good tune. 3:03.xxx with a little to be had. All I'll say is Team Emperor would be proud.

Seems like T400 Awd is becoming full.... Better sign myself up in advance. I'm also eagerly awaiting the final results of my Evo..
