Congratulations once again to Nic-KL for winning 1st prize for the overall win with 96 points. Incredible racing and very close to achieving "The Perfect 100" score. With OwensRacing, kcheeb and dgaf in the mix it makes it very hard for anyone else to get on the podium. Congratulations to Tex for doing just that - getting on the podium! Great racing Tex.


Nic-KL, please pick the new car for next week as it must be changed. You can pick any one of the possible cars, but it would be nice to try something new . Tracks may be selected once the car has been picked.

Prizes are as follows:

1st Nic-KL picks next weeks car

2nd OwensRacing picks new track #1

3rd Kcheeb picks new track #2

4th dgaf picks new track #3

Tracks are picked after car selection has been made.

Final Results will be updated soon.

Nic, any ideas on your car choice?

 

[Nicktune]

Tank car

 

[kcheeb]

Tank car

Is there a brake upgrade for it

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Don't worry about slowing down; it has a loud horn.

I have a feeling this may be the very first tank car racing event in history!

And I guess it is a tank. What's going to hurt it?

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Somehow I think Nic-KL will find a way to win a race or two.

 

[OwensRacing]

Track choice Kart Space!


I kid, ill do some testing today and get one picked.

I tested on eiger (CH tires) . Good fun!
The front wheels are far ahead the bumper cam...
Looks like this:Wheel center / Contact patch

 

[OwensRacing]

Anyone have any idea why it won't let my Tank Car onto the track under tuning prohibited.

It's stone stock sans break in.

Not one part added as you can see from picture.

EDIT:

Beings the vehicle doesn't allow any mods besides the chassis reinforcement. Would it be ok we ran the room tuning allowed and just allow that mod. I don't have it but no way to police it and if we go tuning prohibited. I can't get in for some odd reason.

EDIT 2:

My Pick - Motegi Super Speedway

Not sure. Have you tried resetting all the configurable options to the default? You can also try your setting B sheet.

I'll be on tomorrow to try a couple of tracks with mine. Will let you know if I have the same issue.

Edit: with Oshawa-Joe out for a while, if someone can run the room race night, I can take care of the scoring and keeping the thread updated. I'd really like to see this continue 👍

Tried everything possible. Set up A , B , C

Reset weight, power, brake balance to no avail.


Note my track choice- Motegi Super Speedway

Tskuba surprisingly decent

Indy Road (run out of gear just before brake into T1) wide track

Motegi Road Full Wide track

These three weren't to bad of a drive. It's a different animal then were used too though.


I can host and run the room.

Yeah, it's a completely different animal. You have to brake so early and it might be easier to get it to turn in with a little tap to the inside rear

Will post my choice tomorrow and have a look at the tuning stuff too.

Awesome Owens, Open Wheel lives!

Nice, hopefully more early shifts in your future. Except Mondays

 

[TRL_Importlife]

Thank you. In the mean time I'm trying to cycle the UCD and buy another. Wished it was in the OCD with the other American cars.

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

Can if be gifted? I'm breaking in mine right now and can gift it if needed.

Tried Tskuba with the controller and it should be fun!!!

Can't be gifted. I got another from UCD. Checking now after an oil change if it allows me in.


It's good to go. No issues with it. This game is WACKED out! Not one dang thing different. Both same power. Same power, weight, brake balance. Both have zero parts. One will not make it in prohibited rooms other will.

Anyways problem is solved. Woot

 

[Oshawa-Joe]

I hope the tank car somehow throws Nick off his game It's an interesting car:tup: and hey, it's a Jay Leno car!
