Congrets with your 100 bucks win, mate. But you missed out a couple of good races. And a few full grids, again đź‘Ť

I had one win and lead from start to finish with 4 sec gap on the rest. And yes with quite a few of the fastest guys where in it :sly:

Did you tape it? Otherwise I dont believe you... :lol: Nah, good win then man! Pity I missed full grids, but I think with the popularity of this event there will be a couple more.... I hope :D

You should put your final gear to 5.500.
And 4th gear should be at least 155 km/h.
It will help for sure.
Just try if it works for you

Yup got 4th on 164 KPH at the moment... I'll try the final gear all the way short... đź‘Ť

-edit: Good tip VR6! It does go faster and uses more of 6th... kept the gearing the same and only changed the final gear... knocked 0,3xx off my time on the first lap :lol:

Did you dipped it in the 18's now?

Almost there... Just now I had done a couple of laps wasnt my fastest... I just need 0.1 more to get into the 18s... :D I'll get there... The new tune drives a lot better and the gearing tip from VR6 helped out a lot too! đź‘Ť

Well done Roomboter, I was in that one, you steamed off at the start and by the time we had sorted ourselves out it was too late!

Thanks mate, that was an awesome one. I will remember that one for a long time :sly: I believe VR6, RnR and EBK2 where in that one as well.
 
New PB for me :D 2,18.969.... not the quickest but an improvement for me đź‘Ť

-edit: Make that a 2,18.953 while leading :D

Oh boy,

Did I want to race last night after the afternoonshift. Had an aching discomfort in my left hand but thought it wouldn't be a problem.... Till I drove home and every right turn the pain got too much. Don't know what i've done wrong, but for the time being no more racing :( Hope to be well soon but don't want to try too soon. Track day is coming up and main priority is to get better for that. Even if it means no GT5P for a while...
So happy racing too you all, for the time being I can only read how well and good the racing was :(
 
I got a new personal laprecord
I finally did a 2'16.862
My first 2'16 without a slipstream

I really had some fun last night with EBK2 and FAK_EV1L,
but those guys are really really to fast for me.

Later that evening i had some competition from Roomboter, Crispy and Blitz
This event still rocks

Sorry to hear that MobySPD, get well soon cause it's allways fun racing with you.
 
Yup FAK and EBK2 are very fast drivers... :D In one race FAK was just chilling behind me in second til about the 4th lap where he just SMOKED me and left me in the distance :P
 
That Blue Clio was irritating... saw him duking it out with Hyperspeed as well... Good racing VR6! đź‘Ť

-edit: OOps a double post again sorry... I'm going to watch out for that now!

Yes, he had pushed me off once already, I caught you guys and him back up, and down the straight im going to overtake him and he starts that 🤬 again. Luckily he came off worse than me. :)
 
I'm in tonight, hopefully the 🤬 in a yellow Lotus that kept shovelling me off at every opportunity last night won't be.
 
Is it me or is it a bit quiet in here.
I see some guys trying out the NSX on suzuka.
Yesterday there were not much RX-8's to be found.
I had some spin with Crispy in his NSX.
