Unless it became real. For instance, Audi pikes peak is good, Toyota rsc no. I'll probably get tree'd on this response! (Or not)
 
But the Audi is like 503pp so that's out of the question. I wanna choose something that's not an evoque because I feel like everyone is gonna have one... And my times so far are nowhere near @jay*doc's 3:50...

yeah, I'm having a hard time finding many options here myself... The Evoque just feels *too* obvious, and there's only like 3 other things I've seen that were 4wd... so the question is... drop to FF and have a handbrakey good time?
 
I found a few I liked, I thought about the Element, but I think it's only a 2 speed trans. I'm going 4WD to be safe, but FF and FR probably look more spectacular in the turns!

2 speed trans? Is that a thing?
 
Forgot to save replay of last race, dang it.
I'll still try to do some pics though.

edit: I got it, not R2.

I can't wait to go through those replays for photos. I had a lot of fun last night, and kept getting better and better lap times. Racing on dirt is quite the challenge, but I'm glad I stuck with it and used the wheel for the experience.

Thanks everyone for coming out, we had a great group!

And don't forget, next week we are headed to... Wait for it...

Chamonix.

Photos coming soon!
 
Wow, so last night I was taking photos of the last event, I had to stop myself because if I kept going I'd take 100 or more photos. So much awesome racing, close contact, high speed, and miles of drifts. I even caught a photo of 3 wide going through a tight tun in race 2!

Here's what I got, feel free to share more if you took some!

Get out your snow tires, it about to get slick!

Next week, on Who's Got the Goofiest Wing!

Edit: I desperately want to paint a Wizard on the side of the Element and blare Dragonforce for next week's race. :lol:

Okay Jay, you talked me into it. :lol: I'm in. I know you already have me on your Friends List but I still wanna follow procedure. :D

I'll get cars prepped and ready for Thursday night but my attendance may be 50-50 since it is my one year anniversary with my girlfriend. I hope I can join considering I never really ran a race with people on snow. :lol:

Take it from a married man, join us next week. One year is a big deal, like Olive Garden territory. Get the Tour of Italy, it never lets me down!

But seriously, if you want to postpone your debut in HST a week, no worries! Gotta keep the ladies of our lives happy!

That's what'll probably happen. :lol: Thanks Jay. :)
 
What ever happened to the Lap Time Challenge? I may do it tomorrow night. Mabye. Practice practice practice! :lol:
 
Hmmmmm.... Hard choice..... HST or Daytona Budweiser Duels??? I CANT MAKE UP MY MIND :lol: :indiff:
 
I don't really want to deal with PD's bad coding, so I think I'm going to sit out for the rest of the night again. This event didn't really cost me anything anyway.

@RacingOtaku86
I think the first sign was when I hit you off. Lag probably sent my car straight on into you. Sorry.
 
I've already started testing for the road rally races, and my first choice is going to be my only choice. Once I get consistency down, I'll probably be hitting the 1:36's. To give yas a hint, it has some pretty bad low speed understeer entering corners, some nice corner exit oversteer, and with slide out, rather than understeer off the road in high speed corners. Any guesses? :P

Lancia Stratos? :)

P.S. - I think my choice will be kinda obvious. It basically screams rally from looks and history. :sly:

P.P.S - I decided I'd save the replays from Thursday and I'll probably maybe hopefully will be making a video of it and release it this Thursday. Of course, if that's okay. :D

Dude, you're good...

It doesn't have any understeer untuned. How'd you guess? :lol:

I'm taking a broad guess and say yours will be an STi Subaru or an Evo. :P

It was an honest guess but I had a feeling in my gut. :lol: And yes, it's one of the two. Not telling which one or which year. :P
