As for the used car pages, just look in the GT4 FAQ's in the GT4 forum.

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

lol guess i wasnt paying attention , and thank you for the help.

 

[VTiRoj]

Just put a few more laps in. Suprising how much time I can squeeze out of this thing. It has endless amounts of grip!

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

Well im getting really close to 1 minute in my Honda. But y'all will have to find out what that car just is . I may be posting a little hint on what it is in a different area on this forum

 

[VTiRoj]

An educated guess will probably figure out your car. Mine too, actually.

 

[mafia_boy]

I'm a bit slow with bringing the tune out (ie. too much at home), so I will probably bail on this challenge. Sorry boys & girls.

I reckon if you had R1 tyres and downforce too, the gap would be much smaller. 👍

Is there a pixel prize for the winner of this spot race? Like in the MX-5 one.

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

Well if you can make one lol. I just got the computer I'm on and haven't been able to get software that will work on it yet. True I may have to get on tomarrow and try that out.

 

[VTiRoj]

What about if we just recycle this one that mustangGT90210 made? As long as mustangGT90210 doesn't mind us doing that, that is.

Just need to put "Cr.50,000 Budget - Tsukuba" under it.

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

Ya you could ask him. But since we are all racers here I wouldn't think he would mind. But then again it wouldn't hurt to ask.

 

[VTiRoj]

It's the 5th of June. Do I officially win now?

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

Yes Sir.

Annoucing the winner of the Cr. 50,000 Honda Tsukuba Time Attack: VTiRoj


So who has the next challenge?

 

[mcsqueegy]

So who has the next challenge?

I do . I'm thinking of all those high-powered sports/concept cars, like the VW W12, Mercedes SLR, Cadillac Cien, etc...on the Nurburgring! Probably best to mention your choice of car though. You can tune as much as you like. Drivetrain cannot be 4WD (no ZZII haha), and you must use S3's. Won't be able to try a car myself 'till Friday night. How does that sound?

-Macca

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

That sounds like some fun I may have to get in on it and see what I can do lol. So it doesn't matter on what you modify on the car? But no 4WD and have to use S3's, Can Nitrous be used?

 

[mcsqueegy]

Anything except nitrous, forgot to mention. Wings, new rims, and anything else is ok though.

 

[CamryFan]

I wouldn't mind taking part in this one. I was thinking about a SL65 AMG for a tune

 

[mustangGT90210]

I like that. I have a Nardo sitting in my garage ready for a nice tune anyway:idea:

 

[mcsqueegy]

Cool, so do I, but i'm going to use a car you can put a wing on I'm thinking Cadillac...

 

['92_NSX_Type_R]

It should be a good challenge, I just have to find a car that I can tune to get it to stay on track and since I'm not to familer with the track I'm almost positive I'll be in the dirt most of the time lol. Also is there a deadline where the times and setup has to be on?

 

[CamryFan]

I just have to find a car that I can tune to get it to stay on track

Yeah. Im gonna have real trouble getting the SL around that course. Is there a list of cars that we can choose from? I get the sports concept type idea but what cars can be used for this challenge

 

[Fluke]

im not a fan of using supercars, i set up a hot hatchback challenge on the nurbergring in the spot races.

I will always maintain, 120mph in a civic is cooler than 200mph in an slr.

 

[mcsqueegy]

Oh well, it depends how you drive.

Ok, i have thought up a list of cars:
Crossed ones are taken.
Ford GT 02 and 05
Mercedes SLR, SL55, SL65
VW W12 Concept
Cadillac Cien
Spyker C8 Laviolette (personal favourite)
Dodge Viper GTS/R concept, SRT-10
Saleen S7
Pagani Zonda S and 7.3

That sound good? The official starting time is Friday at 12.01 am, hehe. Let me know any loopholes.

 

[Adamgp]

I'd be interested in this one. When is the deadline?

Any other limitations besides S3's and 2wd? (wing/no wing, hp limit, aids, etc.)

 

[mcsqueegy]

We'll make the deadline Friday next week. All the car customisation is up to you, except you can't use nitrous. You don't have to show proof, but i wouldn't mind seeing a replay for a laugh... i mean to watch, you know, i enjoy those things

 

[CamryFan]

So... We weren't meant of have started, oops

Oh well, Ill pick a new car to make it fair

:And yeah thats a good list, now I know what to work with

 

[mcsqueegy]

Well, you know, you can choose a car, tune it up, but no actual racing or times 'till Friday. Should've made myself clearer. My bad.
