I changed cars yet again.
R-34 V-spec ][ (It's purple and has 1072 HP)
Played with settings for a bit and ran a
1:09.190
Nothing like adding 150 Horsepower to lower those times.
Guess that puts me in fourth just a tick behind Viper Maniac.

Thanx Boom!

No problem Gil!

Nothing like a little forced motivation to get you back into it, huh! :D
 
Actually, couldn't have Lotus thinking I was a coward. Or have you think I was a quitter.
This is the first time I've been this close to You and Lotus. :D
I would really love to know how you got thru the second part of the track so quickly.
I can't seem to get my t2 below 52 secs.
I guess I'll have to watch the TT4 demo veery closely.
 
:D :) :D :) Decided that i cant lower my times with the 750hps LM R33, i swapped into a Nismo 400R but with little luck. Then i decided to go with a R34 V-Spec and with a total of 991hps, i shaved my time from a 1'09.803 to a 1'07.184. 😈

Thats quite a jump there, autobacs. Going from 5th to first.
 
I hope it's not too late for me to join the race??

Anyway I'm using my trusty ol' :gtr:Vspec II R34

And so far my best laptime is:
1'07.246 :Party:

autobacs: I'm comin' to get you!!!:D

Damnit! I'm down another spot. :mad:
 
Hmmmm, pushed back into 3rd.

Well, not bad considering that the R-Type has about 150 less horse power than the cars sitting in 1st and 2nd.
 
Maybe, i'll fire up the R-Type one more time. I only need to shave 2 tenths of a second off.
It can be done! 😈
 
Maybe I'll just say "screw it" and get into the GT-R V-Spec and blow everyone out of the water!!!!

1075HP versus the R-Types 920HP

The crew chief puts Boom back into the car...
"Okay, now it's up to you. You can break into the 1:06's. You can be better, stronger, faster...Besides, if you break into the 1:06's you will be the reigning speed demon on this track."


:DNo Pressure though!:D

:lol:

Gil, should I stay in the R-Type or can I take your V-Spec out for a spin? :)

Depends, How do you feel about purple cars? I can have it resprayed for you. (and it would look better in bule or white anyway.)
Seriously, The Skyline chassis, for all the crap that is talked about it, is very stable. Adding another 150+ ponies can only make your time go down.

Oh yeah, you asked about a Sharkport earlier, I do not have one. I think it might be too much temptation for me to re-arrange the "DNA" of perfectly good cars if I did.
 
Maybe i'll do both tonight!

See what happens!
I am really growing quite fond of my trusty R-Type!
*gently petting the dashboard*

*Takes a look at Gil, gives him the nod, say's "Silver Color please" and pulls out of the pits*

Well, you don't have to get diabolical with it. You might find it useful to see other peoples replays and pick up on some techniques.
The analyser is great to compare what you did differently against the other guy.
 
Consider it done!
I've also taken the liberty of putting on a set of gold 5-spoke rims.

And, in the immortal words of Q, "James, do try to bring this one back in one piece.":007:

Thanx, I didn't even notice.
Two posts to get 1,000 and James Bond.

I have six sons, several of whom buy video games and then get cheats five minutes after opening the box.
I also have one that plays Warcraft online in 1 v 6 scenarios.
He is usually the one. He whoops up on the competition, while IM'ing his girlfriend and doing his homework.
My mind is still not that organized.

I don't know how long I could only use the power of the Sharkport for good. 😈

You need to give yourself more credit Gil. You have 6 sons, you have to have a mind as sharp as a razor to be able to even co-ordinat a trip to the store. That's got to be a logistical nightmare. ;)


Plus, you will end up using a Shark Port for evil purposes, but soon you will lose interest in your evil ways and will begin to use it for good yet again.
