May I suggest that you move the xx.00 start time to avoid a clash with the Swift Cup?
Its a tad close to the xx.02 were currently using, your other times are fine though. 👍
 
I think 2 min is enough time between events a while back we were racing 2 min apart in an event and we never mixed together.We are actualy racing at 00 for the last two days and a rearly saw a Suzuki.
 
Ok, fair enough, I don't think it will really matter anyway, the Swift does what it says on the tin.
 
yep! But the Alfa 147 is very competitive around here. Trashed already quite some Integras :D

door2door racing is definitely back 👍

What times are considered competitive? I'm getting a medium 2.17 but with on old fuji tune with an integra.

My best laptime yesterday with the integra was a 2:15:2.. and overall race-time 11:20:... :)
We were only 3 drivers and i was leading from begin to the end without great mistakes.
GTRP is also driving 00,20,40...

It would be nice to meet you all on Suzuka FWD :cheers:
 
I am not able to get below 2.17 with the Integra. I use the old DC tune for Fuji with slightly different gearing. I have never been particularly fast at Suzuka (either) though.

Had a few races with 2 from the GTRP crew. They sure were fast I'd say. I could keep up, even lead a few laps.
But one mistake ended it all.

what kind of setup you use,especially tyrewise?
To get into the 17's i now using a r2-r1 setup, very stable but need a very good gearing setup to keep up with the fast ones. I'm fiddling inbetween with R2-S3 and R1-S3 and R1-R1 mix but so far not been able to beat the 2.17 laptime.
 
I took R1/S3.

With these tyres you should have enough power on the straight ;)

Topspeed 245 kmh (6th gear).

The other Settings i still always try to find the best for me. :cheers:

R1-S3 :scared: tried that, but it's too tailhappy and can't get Degner right for now. Need some more finetuning to get a more driveable tune

See you on track then sometime 👍
 
I can never get the C4 to be competitive? i tried it last night and never bettered the 2.20's.

I like to try different cars, it gets boring using the same all the time, dare I said, it's not all about the winning but the fun of the game.

I don't care about winning but i don't like trailing the pack and watching them pull away either.

As a Disabled Arthritic old codger thats were I am most of the time anyway, lol. My hands dont work all that well, but I try to put up a fight. but there's no way I'm going to compete with the G25 wheel boys so i just more over and let them pass if i see them up behide me.

LOL i know the feeling, i also use a pad, and on a Friday and Saturday night am mainly driving under the influence :sly:
That's nearly 3 second quicker per lap than I managed with that car when I tried it.

I have put more miles on the focus than any other car, Fwd Fuji, Fwd Eiger and now here all with the same tune, i guess i know the car well :)

Think I raced with all the FWD's today, I can Safely say I’m rubbish with all of them. :grumpy:
 
Could be fun, i may get to beat someone in my Focus 👍


What tune's are you using mate?

All my own, as I have the time on my hands as though to speak, do lots of testing to minimize tire squeal and maintain best grip. But only using AT gears, it's hard to break into the advantage that the steering wheels and manual transmission guys have

Try one of the tunes from the garages and then adapt it to your liking, it worked for me 👍
 
Good to hear mate. Using the TLD tune I guess :)

Did'nt think I was going to stay in front of you, come the one but last lap I took my hands off thinking the race was over, till i saw that red alfa 147 still going, he took me off twice.
 
Sorry bud did'nt even know you were in the race.

Stuffed spoon and spent the rest of the race trying to catch up :dunce:
