Online events update friday 29/05

[PAPPACLART]

In last nights 750pp racing there was not a Clio to be seen. I had my a$$ handed to me by a Mines a Chev (not /Tuned) and a few other cars. Im still finding my way with a wheel over a pad but what was refreshing is that there was a) a lot of quick drivers and b) not a clear dominating car yet.... give it time though.

When the Last 750PP events were available, I was without my PS3 as I had it stolen so have not experienced a 750PP event and am unfamiliar with what car(s) to use. Mostly though, I like using cars that I either like in particular or cars that others do not use, though if everyone is using a Clio and I want to be competitve than I (frustratingly) opt to use one of those. It is only the really good guys that can use the less competitive cars but still challenge and often beat the Clio Clones!

I will give my little Impreza a go but I suspect that it will not be fast enough even at maximum tune.

I think it may end up having its stickers ripped off down the straight as the other cars pass.
If your looking for a good intro into 750pp racing, try the /Tuned Corvette. Its fast, very driveable and doesnt take a degree to tune it reasonably well.

Good to see you back, 888 👍

I would very much love to bring back the Swifts!

Thanks mate !
I can tell you the Swift at Eiger online is a really fun car..

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll give that a try for sure though not without first having my go-faster stipes blown off lol

Currently doing cartwheels round my living room. Finally a 750pp event at Suzi and 10 laps aswell. Fantastic, and nice to see world events up there also.

The Intermediate PP800: Suzuka Circuit World Event is just awesome! On the edge with my Blitz tuned wide open is soooooooo much fun!

Cool, I look forward to the 750PP @ Suzuka. In the 650PP event I would use the 05 Impreza often, and could just manage 2:09s, was competitve most times but not vs some of the best as they would just walk away from me!! Now I need to find a car and get used to it for the 750PP event all over again, Any Suggestions...and will the Clios still be competitive?

Damn, the NSX can't be tuned to 750
Btw, I've never seen a fast Impreza in the 650PP Suzuka race. I once managed a 2.05.1 in my NSX in a clean lap, but there was a Clio also the high 2.05.xx. As for other cars I saw: a lot of bad choises like Ford GT's and F430's...
Anyway, guess I'll have to find an other favorite car for this 750PP race...

Bad choices???? I'd say that NSXs and Clios are the bad choices and that GTs and F430s are the good choices. A little slower at that PP but so much more interesting to drive and even more rewarding to win in. I also think most people here would agree.

If your looking for the fastest car in 750PP go the GT test car or tuned 111r, atleast they are hard to drive at the limit and the people getting fast laps out of them worked for it. Some of the more interesting cars that can match it with those 2 are the S2000, Viper/Tuned and Corvette/Tuned. They are a little slower but are much easier to drive.

I need to know the total race time per races, to organize some race events.
But I don't have the time now to race all of them...

Is it possible to have someone giving me the numbers of laps and the average time per lap for each of these events?

Thanks to you in advance.

I am averaging ~1:43.xxx per lap in the Amuse 350Z. Total times in the 17:16 to 17:18 range.

FWD and AWD can be run on every :12
RWD every :15
Either 10 lapper on the :30s, but the 750pp Suzuka race typically takes ~25 minutes (including matching).
