What about Trial Mountain II?
The Mountain part seems to have some nice semi-blind corners.

*this was the best coverup I could come up with, the previous post blew*
 
You can keep it simple and run an arcade race using only a choice of JGTC cars. Everyone probably has a specific favourite and would like to put it to use.
 
Hmmm... how about a come up with it yourself pwr race for any car as long as it meets a pwr thats predetermined.

I also wouldnt mind seeing some arcade racers though, that would be pretty cool.

If I was gonna ask for a specific car... vertigo.

If I was gonna ask for a specific track... grand valley.

However, I still have a hankering for some tuning on my favorite road cars.

I leave it to you boom.
 
how about doing a best lap in a classic F1 car and to make it more classic..in the course of Monaco(Cote d' Azur) :D

I love racing 500+ HP cars, fast cars are mi specialty :)

I would love some rally racing too due to the great challenge requiered to get a good lap:), oh yes, no Escudo on this one :P
 
Im not really sure if boom ever wanted to bring f1's into the weekly.

Im not saying anything for him, but from my point of view...

F1's are harder to come up with for some of the new comers and even harder for those that haven't progressed in gt3.

Although, I should mention that the fully tuned vertigo is pretty darn close to an f1... maybe the vertigo fully tuned at cote :mischievous:

I can vouche for that Kent. Ran my Vertigo against the 090 against a buddy for 15 laps. He took off on the girst 2 then I had the lead all the way through the last lap where he finally overtook me on the final straight. I know I could have beat him too if I just had one more lap :D
 
The main problem is that No-one bothers to tune the F1s, if they did, chances are that they would still be the fastest in the game. I can still whip the tar off any of my other times when I'm driving an F1...

This is of course true.

What I think miata was trying to point out was the idea that the vertigo is capable of keeping a pace close to that of an F1 car when used properly.

Of course, this is also a perfect example of my "hollow victory" theory. Miata lost the race he reffers to in his post... (no offense dude, it was an excellent race by you.;) )

"Ran my Vertigo against the 090 against a buddy for 15 laps. He took off on the girst 2 then I had the lead all the way through the last lap where he finally overtook me on the final straight. I know I could have beat him too if I just had one more lap "

Do you all think the victor of this race should be proud of his ability to pull off the win, or do you think he should be thinking about a normal car nearly beating his F1?

If it was me, I would be suprised that my F1 performance was only capable of barely winning.

Then again, if I beat the fella by a huge gap, I wouldn't very well think of the race as an example of my superior racing prowess.

The reason I say this is because we all know as common knowledge that any of the f1 cars in the game is fully capable of beating most, if not all other cars in the game. With this in mind, the only true test of a racer in an F1 would be to race another F1.

Anyway, sorry to rant, just thought I would seize the chance to mention the thought.

btw, vertigo, grandvalley... :dopey:
I'm lookin to talk to ya boom, so hit me when you get the chance.

later.
 
bah the F090 is easy to beat, although try to beat me in my F094/S :D

hmm Vertigo fully tuned up at Cote sounds excellent and cool :):mischievous:
 
I'm liking Grand Valley better than Cote d'Azur, mainly because it is my favorite course in the game and is difficult to tune to. I agree with Kent, Fast car on Grand Valley, maybe we could do a sort of JGTC race (the Professional ultimate race I believe is at Grand Valley). JGTC cars vs. LMGT cars; what a matchup that would be!
 
One of the most important things to me this week in track selection will be lighting.

I really wanna run on something with proper lighting and not end up racing something where it's simulated night driving or driving at dusk. (like the dreaded orange light and dead of night dark contrast that you see on deep forest II.)

In the end, I just hope for 2 things.

Lighting and a track we haven't done in a little while.

Other than that, the specifics don't really matter to me. Although I just thought about it, and seattle is one thing I really don't want to see, even thought it fits into the 2 conditions I was looking for... so :confused: I leave it to you boom.
 
Tokyo hmmm... Sounds fine to me. Lightings good and we haven't run it in what seems like forever. Maybe the last time we ran that course was with the R390 LM back in something like week 9. (actually, forget that... I have no clue and after 30 some weeks of racing, I dont think anyone would remember which race it was. *unless it had some sort of meaning.)

Anyway, good deal, tokyo is fine with me.

I'm leaning heavily towads Tokyo R246

Can we do something with some high HP and some downforce here? Tokyo is always best for some serious speed. Camaro Race car maybe? Good car and easy to win if you don't have one.:D Of course the Sim mode 787B fully tuned would be my first choice:mischievous: The S2000 LM edition is a real screamer with 900HP and handles nicely too. Lotsa cars to choose from, I'm sure you'll pick a winner.


Then again, we could always go with the trusty Mini Cooper or pink Vitz:)
 
I think we should a pro arcade race.

Edit: The F/094s is worth 3.5million but if your not doing F1 cars then there are like 4 worth 2 million.
 
I'm pretty sure the most expensive cars that can be bought from a dealer are 2 million bucks,the Tickford Falcon comes to mind. Check under your couch cushions for lost change if necessary.;)
 
How about a JGTC GT300 race?

Please :D

Or maybe a stock GT500 race... or a stock GT300?

Well its on you, Im just a little jgtc crazy right now... thanks.
 
how about having a battle of the drivetrains?

like, choose one car from FF's, FR, MR, RR, AWD that is evenly balanced in their own respects..

might be kinda hard, and I have a feeling the FF's will hardly be used.....but seems kinda interesting...

Love the credit limit idea for hte races tho!
 
How about running a race in both directions? You know, Like Trial mountain then Trial Mountain II and add the times together.
And, if you trust everyone (which we should), no setup changes inbetween.

As for an earlier post on F1's... I've setup one that spanks it around laguna seca... ooooohh 'tis a joy.


I think if we were to do an f1 race it has to be monaco - oh, sorry Monte Carlo (been there and it's groovy).
 
How about a "classic" or historical race at Laguna Seca as it is a true race track that actually holds many historic races such as the Monteray Historics.

Perhaps the Cobra, GT40 and some very early 80s Japanese cars? GT2 provided a much better selection of classic/historic races.
 
How about a Tarmac Rally, Boom?

Any of the rally cars with stock hp, fully tuned around Deep Forest or Trial Mountain ...
 
Alright guys and girls :D

I wanted to bring this back up into our field of vision when looking at the weekly forum.

Turns out, we've got a benchmark week coming up... week 52. The one year mark, and I was hoping that we could put in as many suggestions as possible for boom to look at. Maybe with luck we will get a really fun and challenging race to use when reflecting on a year in racing. Some of us have been here for the entire year, but I don't think anyone has run in every race. Even so, the weekly has bred a large pool of gtp racers that are a growing force in the gt world. :mischievous: :lol:

Well...

Please post your suggestions for week 52.

Maybe an enduro.
Maybe extremely high powered.
Maybe extremely under powered.

It's up to boom, but it can also come down to you all.
I will be looking forward to suggestions...
Later. :)
