RIDOX Replica Garage Fan Club - Suspended

[OdeFinn]

@Thorin Cain bit tuned Isuzu Bellet 1600 GT-R '69 , Mitsubishi Lancer 1600 GSR '74 or Toyota Celica 1600GT '70 would be excellent car for snow racing.
Thinking if I do some tune what tries to respect real world tuning on those..
Those hp without oil change are 108-118hp, tuning those up to ~150hp and we have good snow plow cars..

Thanks for the links OdeFinn! 👍

I don't know for sure, but I doubt I'll be racing with you guys tomorrow. I haven't even started working on my PS3 yet. Some people have mentioned some ridiculously long installation times, now that ~20 updates all have to download and install too. Plus, I haven't had a chance to run a single lap with the changed suspension...So, I don't know if i'll be ready to go in time. If not, I hope everyone has fun. Hopefully, I won't just throw my PS3 against the wall. I've been home all day - haven't left the house even once. Clearly it shows how much I must care about GT6 these days because my PS3 is about 7 feet away from me and I haven't even considered getting to work on "fixing" it. Oh well... Again, if i don't race tomorrow morning, Good Luck everyone!!👍

Don't forget there's the Honda 1300 Coupe 9 S '70

 

[OdeFinn]

@Ridox2JZGTE you happened to have or easily gather real specs for those cars? Bellet and Celica first on mind, those can be same time on track.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

No, these are old vintages, will be hard to find data on them. I did have the Honda 1300, but I can't check the tune

Was that FWD car?
Useful on next stage on learning, first on RWD then FWD.

Yes, FWD and it drives really well for FWD with skinny tires, very nimble on CH.

Had a good practice session with @RMan72 this morning in the club lobby. I'm still losing some time due to silly mistakes, but should be able to run 2:10-2:11s for the best part. Got down to 2:09.551 with around 60% fuel and part worn tyres after a BB change suggestion. Thanks for that R2D2 Still going to need to do some work to get down near you're 2:08.3xx though

Here's my GT-R for today's races

@RMan72 sorry for that side hit, started to search you from mirror and map, didn't see you at all, thought at you failed on 1-2 turn, my car sailed left and hit you.
Timer and map on left upper corner were mixed with our car positions and you were so far on my side at there was no warning arrow on side of screen. My mistake.
Driving straight on next corner wasn't my fault, no braking..

@OdeFinn don't worry about it, was having an off day today breaking zones seemed to change each lap.
Phone went after we collided too so had to ghost out for a bit.
Thanks for the races guys.
Looking forward to the snow next week, I prefer the classic cars too

Thanks for posting you're snowplow I'll get some practice in with it for sure

3 laps more and now more familiar with it, 4:05.244.
Tried to simulate feel of Thorsen lock with that 5/35/5, pretty well feeling imo. Flashbacks coming from my old 70's car with bit more power and Thorsen..

Setup is bit loose to give more realistic snow feeling, spike tyres are just too much.. Wish there was our stud tyres or friction ones..

@RMan72 you need manual transmission, this car revs a lot and you'll lose speed because of it. How hard it would to start using manual?

Could you please chose a Premium car for that Event?

Looking forward to the snow next week

That Event will be at August 8th and not next week due to @TurnLeft asked it.

 

[danbojte]

The July Championship Final Standings!

Congratulations to all racers who took part and fought fair! 👍
I hope everyone enjoyed!

 

[OdeFinn]

@Thorin Cain when that practise car stays in hand rise stakes, install low turbo and master it, when low turbo stays well in hand then install high turbo, again learn to master that.
Mid range turbo is useless on this, if you want to practise more throttle control then that can be used, but it's not making car any better.

@danbojte can we use this Isuzu on event? With high or low turbo?
Will go and check it there is any good oldie Goldie premium.
