Ok, managed to knock it down to a 1'16.545. Slow improvement! YAY!
What kind of settings are you using? I'm running everything really soft.
 
Improved my time a little, spotlessly clean but not not as fast as I know I can go:( I'm getting a bit more consistent with the laps now at least :)

1'20.864
1'16.083
1'16.149

3'53.096
 
I think the race should be revised at least. reduce the power and add the sports brakes and brake balancer controller. 500 hp instead, maybe 550

Hey FPT, do you run in 'free run' mode to get practice in and then once you feel comfortable enough, then start racing the in 'race' mode?

Nope, never thought of that. I have done some laps in an overpowerd RX-7 a few months ago, fun fun fun.

I try to keep my car steady on the straights so I can mash the gas on the corners helping me get faster. I will post my replay in a bit so you guys and gal can take a look at my driving style...
 
Woah that topic is hotting up :D Doohan said it best for me as I was thinking the exact same thing...pussies :lol:

I can't believe a race in which I have managed shit slow time of 3'53.0 clean and a guy like Arco ( or Falken ) is crying coz he can't cope with it :lol: I mean he even got Didi to do his dirty work and take all the flak for it :confused:

And as for this.....
- if You don't have fun with the Combination You got because it takes multimillion tries to get a clean run. Teenies without girlfriends or extraordinary ugly people who have got plenty of time are *not* at gt.de

We are cute, intelligent and brave. And our time is tooo valuable for sick combinations likte this.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I never heard so much crap in all my life :D :lol::lol:

Would love to see your driving style but can't unfortunatley :irked:
 
I've been trying and trying on and off all day with this, found a better start for me ( low revs in 2nd) plus the fact some were being wimps over this race made me a bit more confident and aggressive kinda show 'em how it's done :mischievous:

Anyway much better effort here with this run I doubt I can go much quicker than than this although I've had a start lap of 1'20.1 so I know a 1'19 lap 1 is possible,I'll keep trying through the week ! for now I'm just happy that it is clean :)

1'20.408
1'14.905
1'14.345... I get the urge to push more sometimes on my last laps of a race,sorta get the race over with theory of mine but doesn't work all the time :D

3'49.658


FPT can't post up my setting right now I've had the ps2 taken off me :irked: :( will do as soon as I can ;)
 
had a go in the RX-7
lets just say i dont envy you guys for choosing this event
just cant drive it

Sorry for not attempting this earlier but I had to do my last race for Torc 8 before attempting this and...Well here I am thinking I'd run a decent time and BANG! :eek: :eek: out comes Kelly with a stormer!! Nice Time.
Here's my lame :rolleyes: attempt after about half an hour.
Lap 1 20.401 37.909 56.200 1:20.325
Lap 2 15.564 33.461 52.031 1:15.873

Hey Drew thanks for having a go at least :)

Just took a look at Tosks Torc site and see you and Bollocks, up there in 2nd :cool: nice one! Good luck in your last round and in your races 3 & 10 ;)
 
I can't believe I have been running this without the racing muffler :banghead:

If it weren't for Jean asking some spec for Rod, I wouldn't have even noticed :rolleyes:

from 579hp to 624bhp fully run in ..guess I'll have to do it all over again :(
 
I feel like I'm back to square 1 now with this extra speed, just when I had it under control:irked:

few laps in free run 1'14.2 :odd:

stupid ****in car :banghead:

my aim now then with this extra speed is two 1'13's at least and a 1'18 lap1

3'45 ish if I can :embarrassed:
 
Ohhh, now you can even shave more time off!

Keep it up Kelly! 👍 Nice work! Makes my times seem even more mediocre. I'll have another go at this.
But it's off to work now.
 
Ok so I was struggling a bit earlier, but since Ron came home and I ordered him to try it :mischievous: he didn't like it, and so set about setting it up for his liking and got a 1'13.1 within a few laps :cool: I decided to give the set up a try for a few in free run and got a 1'13.6 ...the set up felt nice, nice and steady I was able to control it :) anyway went to race and first race I done was clean :eek:

1'19.529
1'13.733
1'14.066

3'47.328

I can go much faster too I hope, if that's my first race and a couple of cans down me neck already :lol: :D.....



:cool:
 
Been trying a few today on and off, but no clean race yet :banghead:

Have had lap 1of 1'19.0 followed by a 1'13.6 but that's all :(

maybe when the brats go to bed ..... :irked:
