Wow, I get a review? Once that's done, you get another car!

If you want, that is.

How about an X-Runner?

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Review first, truck later.

But sure.

You think I was running any more than 7 pounds of boost?

Shame on you.

Your RB20 shall die. How does Gekko manage to be slower accelerating at high speeds than my rotary? (Could be that I have 25 on rear downforce to your 30)

Actually, I noticed that my DRIVING SKILL was lacking. Running 1:53 at Grand Valley is shameful.

Gekko's review is on the way. All good things take time, do they not?

In the end it all is up to the driver.. and I know that my car can do a lot quicker lap than 1'53.

 

[Rotary Junkie]

So do I.

Oh well.


EDIT: Delta, you didn't run the R2s? Whatever, thanks!

Now... How's a 425hp XRunner sound? S1 tires for endurance racing. Make it beat up sports cars for their lunch money. PM me with what you want.

 

[Green_Flag]

I tried the Integra and it is better than any Integra I have ever driven. Good Job Rotary Junkie!

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Thanks for the kind words, Green Flag.

 

[Leonidae]

if you want to, check out our version of the GT-R proto.

 

[Vince247]

Ahh, back from Paris.

It's great to see this thread coming to life, thanks people!

 

[Rotary Junkie]

[shameless self advertisement]if you want to, check out our version of the GT-R proto. [/shameless self advertisement]

Fixed.

Delta: Still waiting on PM. You want the aforementioned Endurance Truck, or a drag truck, or what?

 

[Vince247]

Is it just me or am I giving MFT some ideas? *cough* R8 + GT-R proto *cough*

 

[Greycap]

Is it just me or did MFT give you guys an idea of something a bit more?

You'd be amazed if you knew the amount of cars we have on the back burner.

 

[Leonidae]

I did test your version and brought out the problems and advantages it had. Maybe it was shameless advertisement, but I think that nearly 8 second difference in laptime speaks for itself. After all, we're the "Skyline Freaks"..

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Yeah, I know. I was messing around anyhow.

 

[Vince247]

You guys sure are Skyline freaks.

Now, back to business: A little brit' is coming up...

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Well...

Let's just say someone shrunk the front wheel drive shooting brake.

The Mini Cooper RS, you probably never heard of it, because it was hidden in a hall nearby Suzuka Circuit. Maybe one of the Polyphony crew, doing some test rounds for prologue has seen us, but then he wouldn't be able to tell the story...
At least, we wouldn't let him do so.

Being the replacement of the most popular British-made car ever since April 2001, this car has a reputation to live up to. The original is considered an icon of the 1960s, and its space-saving front-wheel-drive layout, influenced a generation of car-makers. Now lets see if this car can influence you!

(Because GT5 Prologue is coming up soon, we decided to set this baby up for Suzuka Circuit, so you can have the lines in fresh memory when it finally comes out!)

ps. This car has been judged by three objective judges of the Second Tuner Challenge, scoring an average of 79 out of 100 points.

"Note: this is a transmission trick, first set final, then auto, then final again and then the gear ratios. It works, just ask RJ!"

It does. I use the same type of thing on all of my cars.



But I have something more to say.

There is a requested vehicle from DeltaTrain on the way (Lexus IS200), a truck, and an utterly predatory rotary on the way.

 

[Leonidae]

BTW, now that you have the GT-R proto, you could do a comparison between these two setups. 💡

 

[Vince247]

Hmm, I'm thinking of editing that Setup(GT-R) into a semi-Drift setup. Good Idea?
I'll search some time this week, I'll see what I can come up to.

 

[Rotary Junkie]

@ Leo:

Yes, I could. Maybe I will.

@ Vince: Well... I think it's best off just cornering as bloody fast as it can, be it slideways or grabbing like crazy.

 

[Vince247]

Oh well, this setup will be on the long run then, don't expect it too soon!

Now I'm busy with a German 4WD monster, with a looser ass than Hilary Clinton..

Built for DeltaTrain, posted by his request.

[DeltaTrain]

Wow, how ironic. The day I get my real-life car back (1990 Honda Prelude SI), I get my Is200 back.

 

[Rotary Junkie]

But it's now the IS-X.

Rockit: The GT-R proto is its own beast. And an insane one at that. Both the RRV and MFT versions are sick fast.

[Vince247]

That Spec R is certainly one I'm trying soon!

 

[Rotary Junkie]

I drove it.

No match (in cornering) for one of my upcoming cars... Er, both.

Doesn't mean it's bad, though!
