I'll be in xx00 for my first run at this with the F430. Haven't done much tuning - just want to get a race under my belt!

Edit: Great...first race for me was pure lag-0-rama and I can't get the F430 on the pace at all.

Going to try the Clio next - although I've never used it online before!

nice race with the GT-R, even though i was far from fastest, didnt make one mistake and did all 2.09s apart from first lap and climbed from 7th to 4th...

rpm_crx was chasin me but went in pits ?!?!

pity people move erratically due the amount of racers... but still good.
Love the 10 laps
 
I find that my best car for this race is the R34 GTR, I have tuned it myself, and it is very well balanced and a good all rounder. I even manged a 2'12.xxx on Friday. Can't race till tomorrow as I am stopping with my Grandparents - they have wireless internet, but my Grandpa keeps hovering around in the corner of my eye and making comments that he knows nothing about - he is going very senile and it gets extremely annoying and really distracting when he randomly starts making assumptions that racers a blocking my way when that have the right to the particular line, and he also just randomly walks in fron of the TV to change the position of a decoration on the Christmas tree... I might be a bit harsh beings as he is going senile, but it does get annoying... LOL
 
Now in the Clio. Hopefully make xx30.

Can't say the Clio is that enjoyable to drive though, I'll give it time...

try the GT-R, could be slightly better, i was getting 2.09s quite consistently, but the clio i believe is the best, some guys were doing what seemed like 2.05s.
 
I've only done about 20laps in the Clio and was just getting consistent low 2'05's.

Just using the standard DC tune at the moment, it's pretty lame to drive in my opinion.

Very impressed with mr_Volcano in the 430...putting in times every bit as quick as me! Nice one!
 
Marchbrown, mr_geez and fairplay, what were you guys racing? Custom event on s2's? Thought I was going crazy when I saw I was lapping you 3.
 
sorry Jack.. there was so much lag that we were waiting for you to lap us so we could have some close racing.. let's say all I could see was white smoke & jumping cars and all I could hear was my cali+subaru + clio at the same time when we were all "together as one mega ghost-car" ..that was something.. :D sorry for that mate..

Thanks:) Really love that f430! We had pretty even times until I messed up... Back xx30.

:lol: No problem. Damn host quit. Was looking forward to that head-to-head!
 
yeah it was shaping as something interesting,but I knew it could happen as soon as I saw that host is racing in AMG Mercedes ;) see you @30!

Sorry about that, I think i was the host for that one. I hate it when I am cos I know many people are not going to connect well to me. Although I didn't quit or disconnect.
 
Now that i HAVE a car tunned....

I wanted to post this image of a recent race to perhaps dissolve any wrong conclusions regarding myself or driving style from previous posts made.
Perhaps this will prove that myself and certainly "D Movement" whom many of you have raced before from AVF can mix it with some of the best of ya here and we enjoy our racing as much as you guys...

This was a race i lead from 5th to 1st by the first corner.
Could of been better but had a Penalty going wide at the 130R.

yea, you were the first AVF person i had raced, and i couldnt catch you!!

i dont know how you get the wrx to go that fast! i went off on the last lap of that race, but even then my best time in the clio is 20.55

I'm just wondering what does AVF stand for?
 
In at :30.

I just saw Silver_TeamGT (IT) clock a 20'42.xxx race time in the Sti Type RA :crazy:. He was out in front in free air the entire time I believe.

Just did a 20'45.9xx race time in the Clio starting from 3rd place. Probably could have done well under a sub 45 race time had I started in first and not been held up on the first couple of laps. Average lap seemed to be a really low 2'04. I saw 2'04.1xx quite a few times with a couple of sub 2'04 laps. It's amazing the improvements I've made since switching to the Clio...I'm really starting to like this beast 👍

I might try the Subaru, I can do low 05's with the Clio ok but it's just not pleasureable for me to drive.

The subaru is even more boring IMO lol. 4wd and lousy braking makes things pretty dull.

Well, if that is correct you're about 10 minutes faster than anyone else :dopey:

Anyway, joining at xx:30 :)

It's only achievable with the top secret tune I'm using...stolen from Area 51 :sly:

JK of course...I fixed the time to 20'45.xxx :dopey: Thanks for pointing that out 👍
 
I'll come on soon as possible.

Can't get into the 04's with the Clio though...very frustrating. Anything I do to my tune doesn't seem to help, only make things worse. I might get there.
 
Some very intense races going on atm here with KOR_Joker, KOR_Hellrazor and Silver_TeamGT flying around the track and me just trying to keep up.
 
Inexplicably, in the last 2 days I've gone so far backwards in this event. I was running 2'04s in free air in the STi 2 days ago and managed a sub-21 race time. For the last 2 days I have managed only one 2'05 lap and that was in the Clio with the DC tune. I can't even do a 2'05 in my STi any more....I am at an utter loss to explain what's going on :(

Ah well, be back racing with you good folks when the authorities give me back my C licence :nervous:

All the worst
Maz
 
I haven't seen the KOR guys for a while, nor silver_TeamGT for that matter, they don't half shift :eek:
 
From what I gather I should stop patting myself on the back for finishing second with a 21'04 to FAK's 20'50!

I'm not quite hitting 2'04 laps yet in the Clio, but my tune is pretty much stock aside from gears and ride height.

I'll be on in a bit, for a bit-going out to dinner-and then I'll be back if not too drunk!
