National Competition In Jordan, Amman

[rhpamman82]

Hi GT5ers

A national competition has been going on in Amman, Jordan. Ok, it's not GT Academy. But the competition has been strong with seasoned GT5ers competing and many of these are pro rally and race car drivers as a lot of people have enough money out here to pursue driving as a hobby/profession.

So qualification was in the Toyota GT86 2012 (stock) with Racing Hard. To get the public involved they had ABS 5 and Traction 5 turned on. This made it very hard as the slightest over breaking wrecked havoc on the exit speed from the apex.

That said, on Grand Valley East I managed to post a time of 1:12.258

A pro-rally driver somehow pulled out a 1:11.5(something). I wonder, because I did see a noob invigilating allow someone to turn traction down to 1.

Great car, have a go and see if you can beat 1:12.258

Final is this Monday. Toyota will not release details of the track. Will let you know the outcome of Monday's final

I gave this a try and found out pretty fast that the car specs / tyres were not right ,
or this challenge is to be driven with Skid Recovery Force on.

I did a few tests..

100% stock , no break in , no oil change TCS 5 ABS5 Racing Hards 1'13.694
SRF on : 1'12.847
SRF off TCS off : 1'13.443
SRF on TCS off : 1'12.700 (194 bhp 1230 kg , 403pp)

oil change -> 203 bhp 1230kg 410pp
TCS5 SRF off : 1'12.972
TCS5 SRF on : 1'12.066

Dear Madmax

Apologies, I didn't realize that at the competition that had increased power to 200bhp

But the tires are Racing Hard
ABS 5
Traction 5

Everything else: off

1;12.258 to beat.............

But to be honest, whilst doing a bit of practice at home with absolutely stock car (Racing Hard; ABS5; Traction5) I still got 1:13.3(something).

Speed up Madmax

1:13.109 Grand Valley Reverse as well
