51./No tune

Grid as in photo.
8:34.486 7th
Favourite because no trading of paint.
8:27.566 5th
8:29.286 6th
Best lap 1:39.07.
8:33.334 7th
8:31.185 5th
8:34.830 4th
I must have made the rest of the grid complacent on lap 1 and/or 2, no exceptional laps.
8:26.915 2nd
8:28.487 5th
8:26.954 3rd
Rear-ended the 155 so that was the most obvious spoiling factor.

So 8:26.915 it is.

The light weight Toyota was the only actual problem here, as it was too slow outbound, though I didn't crash with it.

I assume that you didn't use any aids ,am i right ?
Cause at KO's with SRF out your pace is blistering compare some of us .

I must played over 50 times with reload and restarts this race with various fields seeking the one that might win the race,plus i did serious numper of laps at free run in order to find out where to brake and what line must follow in order to maintain the speed.
The 14en came up cause i was running alone for 2 and a half laps since i pass only one car during that time with front runners way ahead.
Best lap was 1.37 high at that run and the usual was at 1.38 aerea .
Having first lap over 1.41 i was just restarting the race .

At the second right which can be taken with minimum brake and roll ,when you hit throttle must be fully open for next right ( don't lift of at all ) and use the bridge shadows to brake.
A little earlier brake help the pig to stay on line and be on throttle sooner.
Yellow aerea is totally forbidden .

I've got all my braking points down pat, my biggest problem is consistency and of course the weight. I can take the last corner flat out.

I tried the no-tune again today but couldn't improve my time, or win the damn race.
 
No tune is a headache , a small mistake and you're doomed , it looses so much speed and when you go faster you find AI in different spots ,so must pick a field and stick to it .
The one with Ford was the easiest for me and if 155 is in front forget the win ,but still you can try it for better time since you won't pass the front runners.

As for Chic i agree ,too heavy to deal with it ,125 kilos is too much .

* race best lap 1:39.527
8:25.307
* race best lap 1:40.131
8:23.039
* race best lap 1:39.537

Another day, another grid. At least the grid was better, with many more slipstream opportunities, and all these races today reflected this. Although the software was tripping over itself again*, so I would not have done 6 more attempts in any case, too long delays before and after the replay. Besides, I took the best laps from another replay.

Lap two was slow, but a "4 out of 5" doesn't bother me.

*: As sometimes or often happens with a full grid.
@smoothbore12 No aids, no restarts.
 
One run.. Maybe 5-6 seconds still in it but I have back issues again so wont run it again unless someone beats me..Ciao Alfa :P

Also I don't feel like running this, I have weird feeling it'll be enough lol

EDIT...
IMG_20200127_163913~2.jpg


Id be proud to get 2.9 out of it.. Don't know if I'll have time.. Didn't try Brera yet.

EDIT 2..
I completely forgot about NASCAR.. But Im pretty sure Paddy and I are retiring from that one anyways.

8.07 ? !!!!!! Come on , no mercy at all ?
Somebody shoot him please .......
Click to expand...

Every lap I did faster time..If I did one more race I could probably do little bit faster because I missed all drafting possibilities and all contacts with other cars were not in my favor.. Last lap I did 1.35 but I messed one corner little bit so maybe 1:34s can be done.. Honestly was little bit surprised witg 07 too because when testing I thought ai was pretty fadt doing 12

Edit..
No luck..

Drug test that man
:bowdown:
Click to expand...

Id probably fail on drug test since I was taking some pills to relax my nerves in spine and some stronger painkillers for wrist injury :lol::banghead:

But I have replay of the race, I can see doing faster but am out of focus now.. Was just watching the replay :boggled: My last lap was 1.35.7 and doesn't really look that unbelievable or unbeatable.. If someone wants to see lines I can upload it when I'll have time..

bb was 55 and abs1
 
Is our friend , last time he played was at Willow springs ,have the heart of a small kid , many times had to try more than others facing health problems, i miss him too much and i think of him every single day .
That for i decide to dedicate him a race that i know he would like .
Hope God keep you well Barnavas Gray ..........




Me and my 20 million Alfa conquer the field.

* race best lap 1:39.213
8:21.218

* second place
8:23.844

8:28.228
* race best lap 1:39.006
8:17.967
* personal best 1:38.732, this was not alright but all right! At least a second beyond expectations. Good 1st lap, good three following laps and a record lap as icing. I did change the way I took turn 2 and turn 7 (the even-faster-right). I changed to second gear in the former and exchanged more pronounced throttle lifting for more severe wheel turn in the latter. I suppose that works because the effective grip loss is smaller as in a more powerful car.

Instead of getting 206 slipstream on lap 1, I position behind the Celica.

I can't make ontopic posts 2 days in a row.. Right? I had little bit time to play and loaded Grid.. I was very surprised how many people still does weekly races for leaderboards.. Which makes me wonder how many people would still be on GT6 online.. Anyways the real question is should I chase Honda's? Obviously have wrong car :crazy:

Only 0.157 behind current leader.. Will wait for few days to see boards then..

IMG_20200128_190757~2.jpg




Just checked out.. Am at 3rd already :banghead: But don't know this game very well maybe will attack again.. If you are interested watch the video and let me know what do you think about sound comparison between this and GT?
Also give me some driving tips.. Vid is not as good as Red Bull or Alfa one because forgot to turn on the lights :rolleyes:

The game looks OK, it really pisses me off it's still online and gt6 isn't.

As for your concern about us staying together, it was always going to happen at some stage, with different games coming out, ps3 getting older and braking, life getting in the way.
All good things might come to an end, maybe when gt7 gets here we may all regroup.
