@sk8er913 that sounds about correct...when I got pass you I got out to a fair lead but the tires betrayed me on the last lap and you closed up to within a second... and yes it was way better than the bmw battle lol... I re-watched it today..ever so often you would see me closing in when stigsTC came to lap us

So did you have damage or something? You were a lot faster after the pit!

And watch out, we got a new tune since yesterday and improved our time by over 1.5 seconds bringing it with us to VLN next month. Hope we can battle for a position for real next time! Although the Nurb is pretty scary... lol if you crash... http://oi62.tinypic.com/2vt47dc.jpg

out braked myself in a couple corners... after the pit i felt less nervous, my fastest times came when my tires were degrading, don't worry, the nissan shall be tinkered with *insert evil maniacal laughter here*

 

[Eh Team]

Dont worry all 12 cars will be consumed by the 'ring. Lol Silverstone is forgiving, nurburgring is not. Track limits dont even have to be enforced. Lol

Check the calendar again.

I have created a club! ID 1039879. The plan is to have 2 consecutive races in lengths 15 and 30 minutes. Focused on improving drivers skill.

Hey Ricardo!
I had the same reaction as I heard the commentators say that Fan was having a battle and the camera stayed with the LM55! Then you could hear them comment more about the GT4 class the the LMP's
So @S_Bridge game me a link to the Silverstone comments with AJ and I left My comment....

It turns out that the camera guy had to go and there was nobody to take his place lol

Here is the Link to the conversation

​

Round 05: 4 Hours of Silverstone

Yes bro but like I said they've been doing it for so long! You would think they had a back up plan, and GTPlanet is so huge all over the world for this to turn the way it did and even when the camera man was there you can tell he spent too many laps in just a spot (car) on the race.

 

[sk8er913]

That's exactly what I did.

The only thing I can say in German is like "Das auto ist Volkswagen!" And thats about it... luftballons, stein, and holz.

 

[Rickrmtskingdom]

Watching the replay of when I drove, it sounded like I was one of the fastest GT4 guys on track? I came up on a total of 4 cars in my stint but they were all ranked lower than we were and I passed them pretty easily. I really wanted to have a crack at one of the BMW's because those guys were really fast and I was curious how I would do against them. Oh well, at least I had a clear track most of the stint so I was able to set my fast laps, it was still a lot of fun.

You were! They even made a comment about it and for the few moments I saw you you left behind the green Xbox I believe and other cars.
Edit: After that I had to follow you by just looking at the map. lol

@MannYhAvitZ
Trust me you didn't want to miss the battle between me and Fan_Lawless it was just as intense as Tom Brooks made it sound. except it was constant for 20 or 30 minutes.

What happened began with about 60 minutes left in the race, I was catching lawless, and you can see that in the stream if you know to look for it. I got to gap from several seconds down to within 2 seconds by the 40 minute mark. We pitted, and I came out ahead by 3-4 seconds. But Lawless was just a little bit faster! And he caught me with about 25-30 minutes to go!

After he caught me we were nose to tail and even side by side several times! We did this for several laps! Then with about 6-10 minutes left to go he finally got around me. And I made a mistake that cost me about a second. Lawless stayed equal to me for the final 3 or 4 laps and we finished about a second and a half apart. (On different laps) lol!

Great battle lots of fun. I thought it was for position lol. It was better than the BMW battle that they showed. We were contesting Apexs, our best laps were both 13.8s, but during the fight almost every lap was a 15.x lol

@FAN_Lawless is that what you saw? Lol

I did listened too but I wanted too see your battle and the battle for second at the end

 

[sk8er913]

Me too.

We have a conversation going on GTP that is loosely based on touge as well as other nonsense. We've been give permission to practice our language skills in there as long as we don't overdo it.
Normally it's English only on here.
If you want to join it, @JockeP22 should be able to add you in?

No thank you, I can't really speak anything else. I actually forgot about the English rule. Lol

No problem. 👍

 

[Arveena]

Good Job guys on the Race. If i would have known that GTA hates the 2013 and 2014 European Finalist that much I would have joined you.
But you did a fantastic Job. Now we just need a livery editor to get the SAC logo on the car

click the link, there's some very interesting discussion regarding the online issue including "invisible to other drivers"

especially from post#93, and post#103 is worthy to read.
