JSTC400 (GT300) @ Nordschleife! Nov 3, 7PM EDT, 11PM GMT

You buy a new Vette and RM it. No other upgrades to it, then the torque isn't so huge. The Audi is low torque naturally.

 

[ZachAK47]

Guys just keep it pure Japanese chassis, with no GT500... Keep it simple and easier to balance.

 

[phil bell]

I agree, it's good as it is. Just want to get the spec settled.

 

[freshseth83]

There'll be more selection with the Audi and the Vette. Plus they've run in GT300 for the past 3 or 4 years now. It's really not hard to balance them with the GT300 JAF cars.

 

[Kakarot]

This look real fun I enjoyed the 300 class in gtrrl so thi is a no brainer. Ill do some car testing later.

 

[alefin]

Good to see you again, Sinladar

 

[joetruckv8]

So can everyone who is racing tomorrow race at 1pm pst or at the regular 4pm pst time slot?

Btw Sinlader the Jstc racing series op is being created by afelin and should be up and running by next week some time. We start 2nd week of November!

 

[alefin]

Lexus regs were recently changed. Everything is allowed on that car as long as you fall within the horsepower, weight guidelines.

RX-7 regs are in process of being checked.

 

[phil bell]

1pm pst is 5am for me as I am GMT+8. Please have it at 4pm pst if you guys can. Thanks.

 

[alefin]

10 kg was added to RX-7s along with a 547 performance point limit.

 

[alefin]

It's already Saturday and still no time set, so I'm gonna set the time until Joe tells me otherwise.

Saturday October 20th 6 lap race will start at 3PM Pacific / 6PM Eastern / 10PM GMT.

Reminder that Lexus and RX-7 specs were recently changed.

Sounds good to me, I haven't heard from freshseth yet so 3pm it is.

 

[joetruckv8]

Ok so I can open a room up in about 30 mins for those who are going to make the sprint 6 lap race?

 

[alefin]

I'm making a room now.

Room number for Oct 20 race

1472-6118-4216-8219-0239

Room closed

 

[alefin]

Lexus, RX-7, premium Garaiya and Silvia regulations were recently changed.

Getting closer to November 3rd. If possible, please schedule when you want to qualify. We need to start getting those underway.

 

[freshseth83]

I couldn't make it today, sorry guys! I'll be there for the next race! TT's all week also, just PM me.

 

[joetruckv8]

We had a pretty good test session yesterday. We set the cars up to where at least all cars can draft pass each other completely eventho the rx7, silvia, and mr-s can still pass you without drafting. It takes a min but they are still the fastest in a straight line. Before you could only get next to these chassis and maybe setup a block pass, but now you can fully sling shot them.

 

[FakeGangstaDIE]

any good benchmark times yet? im going to start practicing more as the race gets closer

6'36-6'40 is the competitive range for fresh tires.

 

[Kakarot]

6'36-6'40 is the competitive range for fresh tires.

Is that with soft tires? If not Im in a world of hurt only been managing 7.15s-7.13s on meds.

 

[ugabugaz]

Mediums, not softs.

Try the Celica.

Also...Come here!

I'm gonna be around there with you man. Just like in GTRRL lol

 

[phil bell]

I'll see you guys at the rear too, have only tested 2-3 laps and that was with a poor setup. Need more seat time!

 

[gippone]

Me too I'll do some more testing now that the race is closer... My best was still 6:56, I'll give a shot also with the Celica

 

[sickassasin87]

ill race if there's room pls.cheers

 

[joetruckv8]

I've bested an a low 6:52's but 6:55 and up to 7:00 is about where I run on occasion.

 

[freshseth83]

Nurb is a huge track, 6:45s are as fast as you should normally go. Anything faster and you're cutting corners or using too much curbing which is track cutting.

 

[phil bell]

Me and Zach will be switching to the Lexus.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE. Thanks

Nope. "As fast as you should normally go..."

 

[joetruckv8]

Can somebody take my Subaru around there and see if it can run these times? I'm sure I'm leaving a little on the track especially since I'm still using the Ds3, but 7 to 12 seconds sounds crazy! (Lol)

My goal is just to run sub 7:00 mins both 6 Lap stints which I'm still off by 2 laps.
