I'm feeling much more at home than I was in that FT-1, so I dare say there will be more cracks at the top time!

....higher

BTW, I’ll be playing the role of an interested spectator guys.
I went looking for my mojo but, it’s M.I.A & I don’t have the time, energy or enthusiasm to look for it. My GT driving days are over.

There needs to be a dislike button, because I would have pressed it on your post.


I'm happy you are at least watching

I agree with @smoothbore. @bjl23 here I am trying so hard not to let Fordy down knowing I am the slowest player here so what's up?

 

[smoothbore12]

Damn , Boogeyman and Sniper are unleashed !!!!
Thats what can i get so far for Purple Team

Not a big deal but at least a starting point.

Not forget Handsome .....quite consistent !!!! all laps in the same half of a sec.

 

[smoothbore12]

I agree with @smoothbore. @bjl23 here I am trying so hard not to let Fordy down knowing I am the slowest player here so what's up?

No need to blame your self mate if you are the slowest or not .
Am slow also in team times as a starter for 2 first laps , not big deal to feel sorry or upset about it.
Sniper will do his time and you must be glad to have him as a teammate .
Don't know the wash machine warrior were is , hope to be ok and to do better than me in the sec. part of lap times.

Ps
Handsome ....... with your lap times you must be close to 1.35 , why don't you post it ?
You raze the limit to high with Boogeyman as a team 👍

You maybe the slowest but you are the most dedicated racer here, you always give 100%, not many people would keep on racing like you do. So for that you are a WINNER to me.👍
And your times in the the Tag team are pretty good. You are definitely not letting the sniper down.

Bryce,
Thank you for the kind words. I was faster before my DFGT died. There's a possibility that I may have another soon. Got my fingers crossed. Then the learning curve again. The DS3, DS2, DS1 were and have been my main source until a friend from GT5 blessed me unexpectedly with his DFGT. He was a hardore fast racer but GT6 was a let down to a lot of us and IMHO Sport is a sacrilege to Gran Turismo. I'll find the 1:06's before I quit. Really enjoy G60. I still haven't conquered the Peugeot. That is my main goal for right now.

Wash Machine Warrior is tied up with work and the VA doctors that are working on his back. He has run some laps but don't really know the times. He won't let you down. He will be here soon.👍

That was the fastest I could go last night, and I just got tired and called it a night. I'll no doubt give it another crack tomorrow and indeed, as many times as I can until the event's up!

Definately think the rust is getting smoothed off however... I'm back in the game!

I see if I can fill in for you and I do laps 3 & 4, and you can rest up a bit mate.

 

[Racin510s]

Gone in 60 Seconds I conquered the Peugeot RCZ '10 finally. I got a tune from @Jeje6410 who is an awesome tuner. I modified it a lot. Not because it was a bad tune but because on the London Street it needed much softer suspension settings. I copied A to C and worked on it from there. I have been fighting this car for over a week. I do know that for a FF it is really fast, sounds good, but needs to be handled gently. On to the next ones. I am trying to use every car in Group 3.👍

Not sure on the rules if that is allowed. After the other issue I don't want to stir things up again. I do appreciate the offer though.👍 Check your inbox.

Nice work mate, I just counted all the cars in the GONE IN 60 challenge and there is only 48 cars not 50, so you know what that means.

2 more will be added soon.

AND ALSO EVERYONE HAS TO DO THERE OWN LAPS.

I will come around your house, in a minute and see if I can bribe you to make me do laps 3 & 4 .

 

[Nismonath5]

Guess that's just part of the risk of a tag team challenge... that your team mate might let you down. Perhaps do a reward for the fastest team and a special mention for whoever sets the fastest outright lap?

I guess that makes 30 more to go. I have tried some cars in group 2 and the Abarth is my fastest. I keep buying cars and spending 200, 000 credits to build them but the reward is only 8710 credits. I'm glad I have 4 of the 250 GTO Ferarris that sell for 6 million credits. 32 more to go. I don't think I will get them all but I'll try. Next up the Cougar. I tamed the 64 GTO, I reckon I can do the same with the Cougar.👍👍

EDIT: When I raced IRL in the SCCA I never won, but I gave 110%. It was not that I was a bad driver, but because the SCCA kept writing rules against the 510 because it was so fast in the corners. Then had to run against the Ford Fiesta which had the same engine as the Cosworth Formula cars and had a 5 speed. 510s had 5 speeds in Japan but they would not allow us to run them. If we had been allowed to use a 5 speed even though we had to add weight to the car my race team would have been like the BRE 510s that dominated the Trans AM series in the early 70's. Maybe the winner of the tag team could come up with a race for my beloeved 510s. Maxed out they have 461PP and 240HP/186ft-lb.

My 2nd car was a 510 or Datsun 1600 as we knew them.

I had an obsession with them from about 15yo. Great cars.

I'm still obsessed though I don't have you right now. When we have enough equity in our home and hopefully Trump keeps the economy here going our plan is to move back to the NC mountains. Sell our house hopefully for 25-50% more than we payed. That would be enough to buy another house and me another 510. I owed(4 sedans & a wagon) at one time plus my race car. My last one was a 69, which was a one year only like the 68. It was like Street Outlaws on Velocity. 133mph without any aero, but you can only push a brick through the air so fast. I got so many ticket that my Lord told me to park it. :tup:So I did, bought a 80 diesel Rabbit/Golf and since I was certified by VW as a tech I knew the secrets and got a ticket in it too. I tried G60 it just won't under my postedtime. Sorry I run on, was taking a break from both TT and G60.

Red Team Submission I know this is a slower time, but I decided to run one with the B-Spec driver set to push it hard the entire race and I learned something. My third lap would have been faster but I got hit by an AI and lost it and got off the track. The the GTR was very aggresive in this field. I had and awesome lap going but the GTR hit me on the straight and I got sideways. I have been trying to find the field that RMan72 has in his submission. I'll be back.
Edit: I found the field that @RMan72 ran such a great lap and on lap 2 with a fairly clean track got into the 1:06's. I could not back it up though, but gives me hope for future submissions. Has anyone else experienced the GTR aggression or is it you all are so fast that you never have to deal with it?

 

[Racin510s]

Gone in 60 Seconds #20 Hommel Berlinetta. Group 2, this baby was a handful on TC1 but sure was fast.

 

[skeagracing]

Sorry I could only run the 5 laps and no more. I will try again on Saturday. Lap 3/1:06.309/Lap 4/1:07.251.
Will need another operation on my back as they missed a pinched never in my lower back.
