nice pass Outlaw 👍 . But easy because of my worse tires ;)
Yeah, either you or someone else were butchering their tires and still found a way to keep up. My wear actually was pretty good.

Now, I will say that on the replay, CSL had front meds and rear hards. Was I seeing things? :ill:
 
I liked Tsukuba because it was a nice contrast to all the other tracks, not to mention, a) it wasn't even my original idea and b) a lot of people agreed with it.

If we added a "restrictor plate" to the cars, and limited them to 400-450 HP for this race only, would that be enough of a compromise?

Also, Points to come shortly. OP overhaul after that.

Actually why don't you contact Michelin and have them bring the Softs for this race. :)

Or TSC Allowed.

I'd prefer Softs for this race. Make everyone use each compound on both ends during the race. Restrictor gonna leave cars making basically the same TQ and that's what spins tires.

Maybe if we did 400 hp AND we stick with racing hards. Then again, we may not be able to pull away from each other.

No noob tires! :P

No noob tires! :P

But pulling power is ok? Keep the Ponies and put the gummies on for one race. Require each compound to be used on each end of the car. Actually keep the tire rule we have. But softs are available once you met these requirements.

Idk. It's late. Just tossing ideas. Add strategies.
 
I'm concerned that the formula: Powerful cars + Small and Narrow Track = Impatient Drivers. We already saw part of that today. :indiff:

If we really want to do a shorter track, Sukuza East is a better choice but that's just me.

Typical. I can't win a race for the life of me and yet, I'm always around 3rd/5th in the standings. :lol:

Anyways, I just wanted to throw these two pics in. My first time trying a night shot and it looks like they show up brighter on my laptop than on my TV. :ouch:

#13: RedReevos(RedReevos): Orange/Blue

That was trippy.. Read that you updated the OP. Went there to see the changes and grab the format for registry. Came back to the last page, and you are talking to me.
 
Someone's drunk >.>

lol, it's as easy as reading the users viewing :D

Congrat's on being a father btw Rees! Jeez, a thousand posts on GTP and now a baby, what's next?
 
Alright, so while we're here, Eddie, I'll ask you about limiting the cars to ~400 HP for the Tsukuba race. y/n
 
lol, it's as easy as reading the users viewing :D

That's clearly cheating. :rolleyes: :P

Breaking in a brand new RX-7 and painting it with a fresh coat of orange paint!:)

Thanks for the congrats, btw. :cheers:
 
Yeah, I posted mine in the JGTS thread, but I'm not sure if you saw it or not, so I'll say it again; good job man!
 
Hell nah about the power limiting. It'd be much much better to simply choose a different track.

I'd recommend any one of these:
Indianapolis Road
Nurburgring GP/F
Spa-Francorchamps
Tokyo Route 246

Ahh.. A bit bummed you are thinking of taking Tsukuba off the schedule. I haven't raced that track in a long time, and I was looking forward to it.

If it is to be replaced, I like the top 3 suggestions more than the fourth.:sly:

But if weight of my opinion is calculated by using the following formula:

(Opinion value) X (Number of races attended) = Weight of opinion

I have a giant value of 0 :yuck:
 
Edit:
Gentlemen. Why not use Monaco? It's small and tight like Tskuba. However no way of getting pushed off track and being left in the dirt. This seems like the perfect Swap track to me.


Reg post

Mule aka Steve you want us to vote in this track change? Maybe do something like this. Each person quotes and changes the number on the track they are Voting for.

Then the highest votes gets picked? Any of these four are WIN

"Quote this and change the total of the track you are voting for"

Indy Road - 0

Nurb GP/F - 0

Spa Franco - 0

Monaco - 1

EXAMPLE ONLY

My opinion on power reduction: Well everyone knows my opinion on that...

My opinion on RS tires: They're only going to last 3 laps, so that's probably a no.

My opinion on track change: Spa.

My opinion on OP: Finally! :P (missing necessary links though ;))

And that's my opinion. :D
 
I say no to power reduction, no to RS tires. Track? Im fine with Tsukuba as long as we are able to go without incidents.
 
Yeah, I honestly don't see why Tsukuba wouldn't work. Again, this is PURE we should be able to handle it.

But if you guys insist on switching, it will be to Spa.
 
Well, whatever you decide on should be finalized by tonight I'd say.
 
Lol Lancer, you still remember getting run over by CS cars then ;). I enjoyed that race even though the Mini wasnt suited to Tsukuba.

Im happy with either tbh but the general concencous is to keep Tsukuba :).

I didn't even race Tsukuba, I was still mad from Daytona, which I still haven't seen the replay of.
