Quarter mile Drag Tunes

[ControlledAnger]

Post cars you know good tunes for that are for the highest 1/4 mile times

Can be of any hp class

Would mostly like to see unlimited class though (excluding veyron and x1), with the fastest car to do a quarter mile

im thinking either a audi quatro or the escudo but please post your info.

 

[mafia_boy]

1. It's the LOWEST times you're after not the highest.
2. YOU CAN'T MEASURE THE TIME OF A 1/4 MILE!! There's no place to do it!!
3. How many times can you ask about the same subject!??!

Now if you don't listen to this, then my status (right next to my username) applies to you.

Just to show everyone how repetitive this has gotten, let's show how many threads you've put up regarding the 1/4 mile.

Now CUT IT OUT!!! If anyone IS going to do it, it will be me because I have been doing it for GT4 for the past 5 years, quite successfully too mind you with over 1200 posts and OVER 100,000 VIEWS!! You can check it out here and learn how it's done properly.

If GT5 had a PROPER, TIMED 1/4 MILE, I would've ALREADY had a 1/4 mile thread dedicated to GT5 1/4 mile times!! But there's not, so anything you do on that little track you created (and sucked a few people into joining) or via the TGTT is just considered street racing and wouldn't be accepted as a legitimate time by any of the true drag racers that have dedicated the past few years to pushing the boundaries of 1/4 mile performance.

From the overseer of the 1/4 mile thread!!

 

[ControlledAnger]

Please respectfully leave my thread, and do not spam random rage responses, thanks.

2. Yes it can be measured, as i already have measured a exact 1/4 mile on gt5 down the the foot, and done plenty of timed runs on it lol..

3. Just because your 1/4 mile thread has been up for 5 years and has a lot of views doesnt have anything to do with mine

Dont rage spam again thanks~



and btw you overseer nothing but your own game and your own times and your OWN thread, not mine

enjoy my tourny if you would like to enter it..

peace

See, you just proved my status applies to you. This is not spam, it's not random, nor is it filled with rage. You are repetitive and keep being repetitive by creating duplicate threads again and again. You are nonsensical, and can't get it through your skull that people like myself have done more to promote the 1/4 mile than you could ever imagine, so learn your role and actually open that brain instead of spewing the constant garbage you have been littering the GTPlanet forums with.

2. Yes it can be measured, as i already have measured a exact 1/4 mile on gt5 down the the foot, and done plenty of timed runs on it lol..

Yeah, are the times controlled by the timer?? NO!! They are controlled by you pressing the pause button, which compared to the computer's clock stopping the INSTANT your nose touches the finish line doesn't hold a grain of sand. You're basically saying to us that you are better than a computer if you think you can stop the timer more precisely with your pause button than the computer does with it's timer when we cross the finish line which we all know is absolutely ridiculous and completely stupid beyond belief.

3. Just because your 1/4 mile thread has been up for 5 years and has a lot of views doesnt have anything to do with mine

That bit you're right with. I wouldn't waste my time depending on your "start button pressing skills" anytime soon, period. I wouldn't get a proper time from you even if my life depended on it because of that fact. All the times on my thread have had photo and/or video proof of the times being run, not to mention that the computer stops the timer, not some random guy.

Dont rage spam again thanks~

INCORRECT. I oversee the 1/4 mile thread which has been THE WORLD STANDARD FOR ALL 1/4 MILE TIMES PRODUCED FROM GT4!! This will continue to be so if and when GT5 ever decides to have a proper 1/4 mile and it won't be based off some randomly created track by some random guy. My reputation for the upkeep of that thread is beyond reproach, and have the support of hundreds of members and staff who have contributed and helped me over the years.

Quite simply, you can try all you want, but whatever you do, it will not compare to what has been done by us. As for entering your "tournament", I don't see one established racer from the 1/4 mile thread that has even shown ANY INTEREST in what you are doing, and guess what.......they're all playing GT5 so your "tournament" is just a bunch of random guys street racing eachother.

Oh, and where's the green light?? Oh that's right, we have to depend on someone talking into a mic going "3,2,1,GO!". Oh yeah, that's WAY MORE RELIABLE than an official christmas tree.

You aren't even worth my time anymore and to continue this argument would be pointless because it's like I'm having an ass kicking contest against a guy with no legs.

 

[TT3AZ]

Actually, the streetdrag style functions very well in online play, just write or tell the launch in the mic, for example "go at 35", then when the clock hits 35 you go.

and to (insert name here) above 2 posts ( didnt bother to read your name/ or your horrendously long pointless spam/rage post) please stop rage-spamming

Thanks~

lol i did read this though

"You aren't even worth my time anymore and to continue this argument would be pointless because it's like I'm having an ass kicking contest against a guy with no legs."

Sadly you have wasted alot of your life with pointless aim.

Stay small please.

Due to the extremely small amount of sense this actually makes, horrible grammar/spelling structure, and plain corruption of the English language, I refuse to respond with a response for you to read that requires over 90 IQ. Enjoy~

Moving right along, any one have some set ups i can make use of?

 

[Naru1256]

i best i can get for times is to wait for a number like 50 seconds and take off as close to it as possible and just watch the clock and see about where ii is. And to get a killer grip is 1. raise the rear down force 2. lower it as much as possible all over 3. set the traney for the distance, about quarter mile i would say 2/3 power band, youll max out quicker and not take off like a rocket but a good over all balance. set the lsd to mid range 30 (+/-5) make sure all your tires are in complete contact with the ground im not going into extreme detail so no one can take my set up since my SLR can only be beaten by hyper cars and can out run an enzo, easily.

Great advice bud!

Thank you very much i appreciate the on-topic explanation and informative speal. I will be sure to test some of the appropriate cars with these set ups.

Must admit that Mafia Boy does have a good point you do seem to go on and on about the 1/4 mile thing.It's not in the game,so it's not in the game,so it's not in the game,so it's not in the game,so it's not in the game.Sorry i'm going on and on.

 

[oopssorryy]

Mafia_Boy is over looking one very important thing. If your the 1/4 miles offline you'll usually get the Data Logger Tool which can help you pin point the exact millisecond your car hit's the line.
ControlledAnger is making the best out of a bad situation, instead of keeping with the old system (GT4) he is trying to work something out with the new stuff (GT5). You have to give him credit for trying.

Another one leeches on to worthlessness

 

[Rotary Junkie]

So anyone who disagrees with you is worthless?

Good to know.

 

[mafia_boy]

Since this guy wants to continue, I'll bite and continue the ass kicking contest against the no legged man.

lol i did read this though

"You aren't even worth my time anymore and to continue this argument would be pointless because it's like I'm having an ass kicking contest against a guy with no legs."

Stay small please.

I didn't realise 5 minutes writing that post is a lot of my life. You must have the lifespan of a cockroach if you think 5 minutes is a lot of time. The fact you say I've wasted a lot of my life is quite amusing since:

a) You don't know me from a bar of soap, yet you seem to think that I do nothing.
b) I've contributed more to this forum in a week than you have in your whole existence here at GTPlanet.
c) I have my own tuning garage.
d) I've held world records in several categories and I'm still #4 in the world with my time.
e) My 1/4 mile leaderboard contains the fastest people on the planet and the times here are more up to date than other "reputable" gaming websites.

So in summary, your comments have the same value as a three dollar bill.

So keep thinking those misguided thoughts, they'll get you a lot of friends here since you think that everyone that disagrees with you is worthless as I've quoted further in this post.

The only problem with that theory is that it still isn't a properly timed 1/4 mile and requires more effort than most people are willing to put in to get those results, myself included. Look, I've got no problem with him trying to find some other way to do it, my problem is that he has posted 9 seperate threads regarding the same or similar topics and of that, most have been locked by moderators for being repetitive. There's a reason for that, and it's something this ControlledAnger doesn't seem to understand.

Thankyou for the agreement, and I reckon you should keep going with the "it's not in the game" comment, as I think after 184 attempts it might start sinking into that skull of his.

My thoughts exactly RJ, but I doubt the sarcasm from you will be noticed by him....I don't think the mental capacity is there to do so.

 

[oopssorryy]

Well all 10 of the threads are uncalled for, there is no reason to clog the airwaves so to speak (But to be fair two of your examples were tuning advice). And his anger isn't so well controlled. People do have opinions, and you do have to respect them. It's like really life, would you call someone a cockroach for disagreeing with you? Probably not. Lets try to stay on decent terms with one another, so that we all might learn something.
But if somebody wants to drag on GT5 this is as good as any other set up that I've seen. If you have a good set up please do tell, drag racing sounds like it could be lots of fun on GT5. But for right now this seems to be a good start in the right direction, so instead of locking this thread, or leaving it to die, why don't people add to it and try to better the system.

Let me put this in simple terms.
1: Is there an official GT5 1/4 mile drag strip in this game?
2: Is there an official GT5 1/4 mile timing system in this game?
3: Can you equip any car in GT5 with Drag racing modifications?
Did you answer yes to any of the above questions?
Do you have a PC?
Go buy NHRA drag racing for your PC and go play that.

He said I wasted a lot of my life with that post, and it took me only 5 minutes to write it.....on that basis you would need to have the lifespan of a cockroach (or a mouse, or any other short term living creature) to think that 5 minutes is a lot of time. He called us worthless for disagreeing with him so yeah, if it was offline I might've called him something because I don't have an AUP to abide by offline.

Just sayin'. Also agree with the point about it being completely stupid to go all grammar nazi when you yourself drop caps etc etc very often.

Only person I see trolling is yourself, good sir.

As for drag tuning (#1 RX-7 Spirit R drag tuner reporting in)... It's nigh on impossible to verify what changes really make a difference due to the complete lack of a timing system; SSR7 drags, TGTT drags, etc etc are all fun but also akin to street racing... Where time does not matter, only winning vs losing.

Please re-read my comment, then re-read it again, then when you understand it you may respond coherently.

You're not particularly good at ninja edits there sir.





tl;dr: Go elsewhere.

So your saying we shouldn't even try? Well that's no fun at all is it. If people want to try to drag on GT5 why should you try to stop them? It might not be as good as GT4 but maybe with so many people trying to set something up, an official track might be released. Only time will tell, so lets just let him do as he wants with his own game, it's not like it affects your game.

He called us worthless for disagreeing with him so yeah, if it was offline I might've called him something because I don't have an AUP to abide by offline.

Exactly my point, what he said was highly insulting, classless and uncalled for. I understand why your mad at him for it. Offline I doubt he would have said any of those things, and if he did I could see a fist getting thrown his way. Please ControlledAnger no insults, if your going to insult somebody, do it to their face. As this is on the interweb that is impossible, so no insults and everybody will get along.

 

[mafia_boy]

To the grammar part; I didn't make the site rules.

But you DID agree to the site rules (ie. the AUP) when you signed up to the site, and by doing so you must provide comments that have correct punctuation, grammar and not be repetitive. Not to mention that your comments now just have a trolling reek attached to them. I suggest that you have a proper read of the AUP instead of ignoring it which you must've done when you joined GTPlanet.

As for not catching my name, my carefactor to that is 0, atleast you're absorbing my comments into that skull of yours. 👍

Then increase your IQ to something higher than your shoe size. It's not my problem that you can't understand proper English and need ebonics.

The only one who seems to have a low IQ in this thread is you. Let's put it this way, you make a tree stump look like Stephen Hawking.

Dude, you're only making yourself look worse with each post.
(Feel free to flame me about this if you want, but all it's doing is turning your thread into a Freakshow Alley. And distracting from the alleged purpose of discussing 1/4 Mile Tunes)

If you are serious about the drag thing, leave the flame wars alone and start posting some new info about drag tuning. I have no interest in drag tuning whatsoever, but here's my 2 cents anyway: an excellent starting point would be some testing results showing how consistent your method is (eg "I tested the same settings 5 times, my runs were 12.316, 12.157, 12.249, 12.284 and 12.188", by the way these are not real numbers, I just made them up).

So your saying that calling somebody a cockroach isn't insulting and that there is some other, much more obvious, meaning that I'm missing? Please enlighten me Oh Great One. Tell me the secrets of the universe. If you read my previous post you'll see that I was trying to defend youf idea of Drag racing.

I think Rotary Junkie had you pegged, you can't take it when people don't agree with you. And FYI if you think this is "overly written" you need to learn how to sit down for five minutes and focus on something other than your own bloated ego.
