Monday Night Racing (Recruiting)

[MasterGT]

Yes, normally, our lobbies are open. Sometimes they are private when the event is complicated and it is appropriate to be friends only who will follow the rules.

I look forward to meeting you next week.

 

[MasterGT]

With the additional changes to GT7 coming from the recent update, MNR events will improve, too. Thanks, PDI.

 

[MasterGT]

August is a special month in that not only does it have 5 Mondays, but August 20th is MNR's 10th anniversary! I hope y'all join us.

We will use as many Legend cars as reasonable, including the:

Alpine A220 Race Car (not currently available)

NISSAN Fairlady Z 432

Porsche Strassenversion

Aston Martin DB5

NISSAN Skyline Super Silhouette.

If you need to buy any of these cars, please do so ASAP, before they are sold out.

The total for all of the available cars is just under 5.5 million credits.

Are we allowed to add other stuff to the default tune as long as we stay below 410pp? For example high rpm turbo charger, spoiler, power restrictor, ballast, etc...?

Thank you!

 

[MasterGT]

No, these are spec settings and our races are meant to be fair. You can tune the car, of course, but the parts are limited for a reason. Ballast and other non-performance changing parts are fine.

 

[MasterGT]

You did very well for a first time driver in MNR, Skippyvb, in a difficult car. I hope that encourages you to come back for more of our challenges.

Thanks, enjoyed it. I will be back and hopefully more competitive in the future. Thank you for putting this together!

Tokyo Exp South Counterclockwise (8)

And if you don't know why the 432 is special, here's the reason:

 

[MasterGT]

The Alpine lobby is now open.

I will definitely be trying to make it for this coming Monday, New to the forum but would love to join a group of people to race with.

Thanks, Linkaid! Hopefully you have the three remaining celebratory Legend cars for the month.

Haha I doubt I do actually, I need to do some career races I will check tonight

 

[MasterGT]

The Strassenversion might still be available. Not sure about the DB5 or the NISSAN race car because I haven't looked lately.

Keep in touch please.

 

[Linkaid]

I dont have them, im fairly early in the career, will watch for cars that i have for future races and keep collecting.

With these tires on this car, tire wear is significant, therefore, most races won't have any. You will need to tune the car. Mine tames it pretty good.

Congratulations on making your 10 year anniversary!! Sorry I had to miss it Master. I had fully intended to be there but life stepped in - and as they say - "that was that".

Yeah, summer activities are really cutting into on-line racing this year, more than normal.

Monday Night Racing

September 12 @ 7:30 Eastern

Car & Conditions: Peugeot Gr.4, 634 PP, 345 HP, Tires = Racing Hard, Tires = 4X Fuel = 8X

You will need the Racing Transmission and probably the Brake Balance Controller, too, to help mitigate front tire wear.

Tracks, (Laps)
Deep Forest Reverse (10)
Dragon Trail Gardens Reverse (10)
Alsace Village (8)

Each track has at least 1 pinch point that needs drivers to take a proper driving line (outside-apex-outside). Failure to do so will cause accidents and you will be slower. Practice, so that you don't fill that wide gap.

[MasterGT]

Thanks for the fun racing, tonight, everyone! It's good to see new drivers take interest in MNR, too.

 

[MasterGT]

Monday will be a holiday for some Canadians. Please join in on the fun with us.

Monday Night Racing

September 19 @ 7:30 Eastern

Car: Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 C6, 2009, 641 PP, 639 HP, 3325 lbs, Tires = Sport Medium

Add the normal Fully Customizable Suspension, Manual Transmission, and the Differential. The engine has lots of torque throughout a relatively flat curve. The gears were adjusted to help you take advantage of that, but you still can't jump on the gas. Not all gears will be useable the short tracks, so either adjust the final gear or just use the torque with 5 of the gears.

Updated: Racing Brakes and Pads were added, too.

Tracks & Conditions, (Laps)
Sardegna B, Tires = 4X Fuel = 4X*, (10)
Maggiore West Reverse, Tires = 4X Fuel - 4X*, (10)
Fuji Short, Tires = 4X Fuel = 3X (9)

Come for the free beer, stay for the great racing.
