When's this starting?

 

[Barra333]

Thanks guys. That was (mostly) fun. I do need to customise some more vehicles before I do it again though.

 

[lozzy1234567890]

That was great fun, I want to hear from the other guys.

 

[berty1979]

Enjoyed it ill post a pic of our results soon.
1st Rhyfelwr79
2nd Driftking
3rd lady marigold
4th samurai
5th Etid

Maybe top four from each go head to head next?

 

[DK]

Gah, if only I had my own bike and my own compact car.

Strangely, I wasn't allowed to choose my custom Sentinel XS for the sedan races.

Sentinel XS is a coupe DK. Just as the Übermatch Oracle.

To the people in my group, I hate to put excuses for my terrible driving, but I was noticing some random lag jumps while racing, and many of the accidents I was in were a cause of this. Hopefully next time we do this, my internet can be better (It's been stormy here the past few days)

Which part of NY do you live in? WNY? Upstate? NYC?

Today was the first day in a while that it hasn't been terrible out (Even though it was 4 degrees out today)

 

[Barra333]

@Jahgee1124 I didnt have a problem with your (or anyones) driving. A couple of cars were jumping around a bit, but nothing too bad.

Now that I am not in a rush to get to bed, I will thank @berty1979 and @Ellis for running the show, and congrats to @lozzy1234567890 for dominating our room. Also, congrats on hitting level 100 after the first or second race.

It is a shame that the game scattered us everywhere the instant the last race finished.

 

[berty1979]

I had fun, if anyone would like to do this again with different tracks let me know and I'll arrange it. Maybe limit each session to eight so we can all race together and include the others on a different night.
I did well on the motorbike races ( except one) but was found wanting on the off road tracks ( bouncy bifta).
Thanks for taking part.

 

[Michelin]

I'm glad I could win a race as lozzy just dominated the session. Someone in a blue Z-Type spun in the entry of the 4th lap in the docks race, that was the pass for my win right here. Apart from the last two races which I got pissed at myself and at that 🤬 Bravado Gresley, I did fine with everyones racing and internet.

 

[Rod Carvalho]

Unfortunatelly I had to leave early as my wife arrived at home.
I started well and had really nice and clean fights in the first couple of races but, when we moved to offroad and classic I started to repeatedly crash. Now I know which cars to pick in order to be competitive, I have to get rid off my Weeni issi and also customize a sedan car.

Thanks for organizing the event!

PS:Also notice someone speaking Portuguese in the room. Was it you NascarManiaco99?

I will stay subscribed to this thread, so just post here if/when you plan another one and I will try to attend.

I found the issi a poor car after upgrades. Too much drifting in every corner which is odd because its based on a pretty well sorted car. I chose the blista which I think is based on a Honda?

 

[DK]

The Blista is probably the best compact, as the Prairie also suffers from a lot of wheelspin, even in stock form.

 

[Barra333]

The back end of the Blista kept stepping out me last night, which I found odd for a FWD car. It is modeled as FWD, right? Does that improve with upgrades?

Yep it was me hahahah dinner was served right between the races, so I had to explain to my parents that I had to eat between the races, since it was online and all that ahahahah

 

[berty1979]

Compacts are very light on the back end and should step out when you release the gas or brake when turning. Under acceleration in a corner you get the opposite. My upgraded blista follows this quite realistically. Not bad for GTA5

Samurai had to eat too, he missed 4 races or he would have challenged Lady Marigold for 3rd.
I needed to pee 4 races in, must have been the nerves

I didn't miss any races I eated between the races.

Oh, I live an hour away from Buffalo. I just missed the Blizzard/Storm.

 

[Jahgee]

I actually ate a meal in between races , had Bacon Cheeseburger Hamburger Helper
