Lap Time Benchmark

[BH-21]

Sometimes you just have to hate the internet, in person this would of taken about 5-10 minutes to do, but by posting it may take a week or more.

Again let me clarify there are 4 sections, vote once in each section. Getting a vote online like this is always tough without a poll like click the button response on a single topic.

 

[SVX]

Picking Car: Stock



Deadline time: Week




Hows this?

 

[BH-21]

I would say your either having fun with me, or trying to make me mad on purpose is what I would say SVX. The numbers in parenthesis are the number of votes for a particular item.

If this voting part doesn't pan out, I'm just going to declare the rules and start the first round.

 

[SVX]

Sorry. Better now?

 

[GrumpEone]

...I'm just going to declare the rules and start the first round.

There you go, just start and tweak as needed.

 

[BH-21]

I think your right GrumpEone.

Just about the best I can do, without being able to adjust the suspension. I will update if the time improves before the deadline.
What specifically is the deadline, date and time (with time zone).

 

[BH-21]

The close of this round will be 5 days from when I posted the Round 1 info. So by my time it will be 7:30 AM Monday morning Central Time.

Thats a very good time there GrumpEone, don't forget to post your tires just like a normal submission for the Lap Time Benchmark. Now to figure out how to shave 5 more seconds. Needless to say, cutting corners through the grass is a no no.

Thank you.
I thought it was stock only, so S2's should be the only thing allowed (post updated). Tip, no TCS or ASM, be really good with the counter-steer and throttle-control. Amen, grass cutting is for the riding-mowers, I think my driver-side rear tire touched grass on the cut-back but just barely, does that invalidate my time?

 

[BH-21]

No touching the grass wouldn't be invalid, but certain gimics used to get through the driving missions would be. Like a real race at least two wheels have to be on the pavement of the track at all times.

I chose this track for a reason.

 

[BH-21]

Thanks Beast345! You don't have to supply proof until your time has been challenged by anyone who is on the list. I will add you to the roll.

P.S. In order to be an extreme upgrade you would have to modify the engine. According to my garage the HP for that would make it 835 Hp. So either your HP number is off or your upgrade level is only Heavy instead of Extreme. I'm going to change your HP in list unless you tell me different.

 

[GrumpEone]

cool, only about 10% of 1 tire touched grass.

 

[Pyle_PMG]

VANDENAL Round 1...Car: Infiniti G35 Coupe '03...Tires:S2...Power as tested (without oil change):281 hp...Track:Fuji Speedway '90s Normal...Time:1'50.623... That is the best time I can rattle off in a car with stock suspension. Isn't the Nissan Skyline 350GT Sedan '03 the same car?

 

[Skython]

Hey, can I join this game thing, I've already tried but when I went to get the Infiniti G35 Coupe it wasn't in the dealer, I only found the sedan, I think don't think it's on the PAL version

EDIT: For now I'm going to use the Nissan version, my best time was a 1.45.385, but I was in the Nissan version (read the start for why) so it's not really fair because it may be faster so my time is up to you on if it is counted

Note: I just looked at the car list, in America, it's an Infininti and there isn't a Nissan version, it's backwards for PAL

 

[BH-21]

Anyone who buys the car and posts a time is playing the game, this is open to absolutely everyone who meets all the rules for a normal submission and the rules of this game.

As for it being the same car as a Nissan 350 GT, I don't know I just bought mine yesterday and wouldn't want to deprive myself or anyone else of buying more cars. Its really a game of collecting you know.

But for game rules if your car doesn't say exactly what the picked car is, it doesn't count.

It is heavy, sorry about that i had forgotten about that part.

Thanks guys!

Beast345 you forgot to list your tires, you must do this with each entry, assuming R5 for now.

Vandenal you forgot to list the course style, assuming Normal for now.


The game postings are a bit different since some of the information is provided by the person who picked the car and track, but you still have to show your tires just to keep things above board. Back on the first page are good examples of normal submissions.

 

[beast345]

Beast345 you forgot to list your tires, you must do this with each entry, assuming R5 for now.

It was R5 with my first entry, and R3 with my other two.

 

[Pyle_PMG]

Whoops, excuse my mistakes, I am currently having sleeping problems and its definitely affecting my posts. Yes I used the normal beginner course, and being as I currently have limited internet access at the moment (cellphone only), I will update my post to reflect those of the normal entries tomorrow, because that's when I have access to a computer.

 

[BH-21]

No biggie, just dotting the "eyes" and crossing the "tees". A bit of a golf joke. It was nice to get the first 12 HP posting especially for a vehicle I kind of like. I may have to break out my Fiats for some fun as well.

 

[Pyle_PMG]

My GT4 garage is basically Fiats, the Mazda Carol Deluxe 360's, the Subaru 360's, the Daihatsu Midget's and high power supercars. It's actually a lot more fun to drive the small cars because you don't have to slow down for many corners.

 

[BH-21]

Round 1 is over!
GrumpEone had the best time with Skython11 the second best. GrumpEone picks the car and track for round two. Please use the following example for the posting when you make it.

Example:
Round 1 (Bold, text size 4 or 5)

Infinity G35 Coupe '03 (New)
Fuji Speedway '90s (Normal)



P.S. Skython11 in future please list the full car name that you think is rebranded as well as your tires and your garage HP listings would be very helpful. I looked up what you suggested and it took a bit to find your car because I didn't have the full name.

Car: Honda NSX Type R '02 (New, 119,570 cr, HP: 295)

We aren't doing upgraded cars yet, lets get a few rounds of stock under our belts before we change things.
