Suzuki Swift Cup Suzuka PP550 xx.00/20/40 (hoorah! its back!)

[Hyper-Dan]

see you guys in 7 mins. =)

 

[Ardius]

That was annoying... having a good race with Ardius there and then the host (not GTP) quit...

Aye, although now I just had a good race with josi (DE), he drives that Integra like mad!

 

[Sphinx]

Good race, homeforsummer 👍👍

 

[homeforsummer]

Good race, homeforsummer 👍👍

Yeah was good fun, pity I messed up on the exit of Spoon! Just managed to pip Ardius in the end with some very late braking into the chicane. Talking of the chicane, I had to almost come to a standstill to avoid you on the first lap, I braked too late so had to pull to the inside, and then you came right across me! Apologies if I tapped you.

Just did the next race too early and was against one guy only, but had a fantastic race for the whole three laps

 

[AMG.]

excellent xx30 race, just got a time penalty on the last stretch grrrr

 

[Sphinx]

Attempting a pass at degner = tears.

 

[Ardius]

Attempting a pass at degner = tears.

Heh, yeah. At least mine are mostly successful though

 

[homeforsummer]

Psht I'm leaving it for tonight methinks, another host who either quit or had connection problems. A pity, because it was the same guy I just raced earlier too. He nudged me on the main straight as I passed him and as soon as I got into the first corner, *ping* and the race ends.

 

[Sphinx]

You've yet to prove it to me.

I'll try on you next time, see how it goes.

 

[AMG.]

Genius, that was good fun, sorry to hold you up Sphinx. I didnt even realise it was last lap already !!

Uh, uh....Ill let you through

 

[Sphinx]

No need to apologise. you were doing great and fairly. 👍👍

Uh, uh....Ill let you through

I wouldn't even dream of doing it to be honest. I prefer to get round the turn on my own steam, and certainly not use the other car as a barrier to get around it.

Just my personal opinion of course.

 

[Hyper-Dan]

Right, maybe we will sync up better this time, just me and Ardius last time.

What are you implying?

Being a bit more serious now, yeah, Im sorry for my more aggressive moves....I really should learn, I keep forgetting about my under-steering problem. Hope you dont feel that I wasnt driving clean, just me making silly moves.

Anyway, Im off now. Great racing from everyone and a couple of GTP only races!

 

[AMG.]

@ Genius, I saw Stevisiov got punted off by a rogue, I decided to wait for him so we could still have a bit of fun when you crashed in to me. Unfortunately Steve exited the race. I thought you were on a tighter line and I was out of the way. Then I thought Id give you my place at the finish but no, you pushed me ahead.

Ive enjoyed this immensely. Good to do again but Im joining 600pp now. Wont be in tomorrow due to business dinner so catch you guys on Wed.

Ardius, excellent idea 👍

Cheers, it was great racing with you

 

[vanubermaster]

Big thanks to Ardius for organising this and pleased to say it's a great success!

Some of the races ended up being private GTP races Timppaq has clearly got a great setup as he was screeeeming through the pack! Well done dude:tup:

Very close behind Sphinx on my second race. I think that was the first time i've raced with you:tup:

The 8:00pm (UK time) race was hosted by j-pap but my connection failed but re-entered a new race with 'homeforsummer' and 'nige' Top racing with them, wheel to wheel around the esses until I was bumped off by someone else just before degner.

Great racing by all, pleasure driving with ya

 

[Hyper-Dan]

I really enjoyed the racing there, just met GTP_JASE72, First time we have raced, was a lot of fun, few light scrapes here and there. Damn good racing, just wish there was a few more of us. Nevermind there's always tomorrow. See you guys @ 7:00 tomorrow night.

I pushed you on and waited because I seen that Stevisiov had gone and I wanted to race you rather than catch up with the "rogue" up ahead. I would have beaten you only for I messed up the 2nd corner badly , thanks for waiting. Great race before that but I was worried when Sphinx was behind us that when I'd go to pass you I'd block him.

Great racing 👍 . Nothing wrong with trading paint .

 

[GTP_DONK]

Gis a go

 

[GTP_JASE72]

I'm still there

 

[Stevisiov]

Sorry for the disappearing act, I quit because I was hacked of with a bunch of integras, but it was my last race anyway.

Great races favorable (lucky!) results for me in the first two. First time in the swift seems a fun car to drive. I am not particularly good in Front wheel drives ( I prefare a bit of oversteer ) and it was compounded by not having the time to do a car setup. I turned my PS3 on bought a suzuki, went into suzuka 500pp looked at the clock and 43 seconds to go until the race at 8:30 .

Needless to say its the quickest quick tune I have ever done

I am going to check for some setups for tommorow, maybe even have a go at my own. Still a bit of practicing in it and I think I will get the hang of the little car. P.S Great racing JASE72

I am back on for a few races now, but I think I will move up to 600PP and that crazy little clio.

See you on the track!

Well did he have his indicators on ? if not you should have gone for it

 

[Hyper-Dan]

I think indicators would be awesome, you could let the person, (READ) me Ha Ha, know you are coming up fast and let them go by. 👍

I will be back @ 1900 UK time, Hope to see a full GTP_ grid!

 

[homeforsummer]

I'll do my best to be on at 7pm tomorrow, really enjoyed the racing tonight. I was using TLD's setup for the Swift and I was amazed how it transformed the handling from an understeery mess to a direct and nimble car. It still has some traction problems (needs a limited slip diff really) but the GTP guys seemed more than a match for anyone else there tonight.

Hey ardius, I may have a go at this tonight! I'm a bit slow about these things tho, I don't like these organised races without private servers. I'll try to do a few today, and get my Swift tuned.👍

Cool, ill add you to the driver list.

Im not likely to be on very early today (if at all), so I'll probably see most of you tomorrow.

 

[J-PaP]

Would anyone who is running tonight or even another night with the swift care to see how they fare using my tune? I got some good runs with it and apart from some consistency issues due to my driving ability, in every race I was fighting for the lead. The tune does seem to only work depending on your driving style though so I expect it to not be for everyone. A link to my tune is on the first post of this thread.



Thanks
