I've changed the objective for the BLOODY KIDS ALWAYS FORGET SOMETHING to fastest time because the person with the fastest time will win anyway. This will us working at how much we beat the time by.

Also if nostradavor2 is the only div 1 entrant this round I will merge the two divisions together, but the div 1 guys will have a handicap.
Any ideas what that should be?

So if we have
x = amount of performance points to subtract in D1
Now if those points are taken

1. If possible, by power reduction
2. Otherwise middle position ballast,

then the powerful cars will retain a good torque, and the handicap should be relatively smaller for tracks with low average speed because the (+) acceleration would not be affected as much.
A more balanced way might be

1. If possible, x/2 by power reduction and
2. x/2 by mp ballast, otherwise x by mp ballast.

But I didn't test any of this as such. As to the value of x, are we just going to make it very obvious that D1 is a different beast? Then x might be between 12 and 16 and the latter / two-way option mostly moot. A believable handicap may be too much work when forming new events. For example, the Weekly Race Series had/has a veritable operation keeping that going.

Trying to figure out the valve of X will be the hard part.
I've seen the weekly race series does a
handicap system as well, I've been meaning to ask them how they do there's.
With I'll do now.
 
Wow !!! @Thematic went better with the courtesy car while am struggling to get sub 61 sec.
Did that 2 times with best 1.00.890 .
Way far and the worst part is that ill give Bryce the " right" to have party on me :rolleyes:
I imagine the smile on his face now holding a beer in his right hand ........

As for bloody kids just run this one time and didn't even take a shot ,first was 7.28 and sec 7.13 ,i was on limit with gearing and perhaps this one needs a clever way to use NOS but i won't run it again.
My only hope this round is to carry the full weight penalty for the next round with the Audi .

Have a good weekend all .

compared to gt6 it looks bad honestly.. driving with a wheel also feels horrible.. it sounds better (not more realistic, just better) and is fun in arcadish way.. so overall not bad but not very good either.

as far as my comment, I just read it.. it wasn't meant to sound dramatic :lol: Im not really like that.. That's exactly what I meant to say that I'd like for us to stay together in GT7 and the ones who aren't on ps3 anymore come here for some chat once i a while or whatever.. I already miss Paddy :lol:

I got the ps3 sorted I just put air duster in the disk drive and that got the lens clean:cheers:

Of course ill take my blood back on the Audi he loves so much ,i will leave him with the " can" since is 4 laps and not one ;) .

Welcome back @paddycars1

@smoothbore12 I have nothing up my sleeve...... yet.
@CozmicDragon is winning the round so far.

I had another thought on merging the two divisions what if the div 1 guys used a tyre less like the CHIC is, the first round of the CHIC will be a good indicator if that will work.
Click to expand...

Its depending on the car i guess and i think tyres on same category has less difference than tyres from two different categories.
SH from SM must be less in advantage that CS from SH etc. or at least that is my impression so far since i didn't realy test it to extract a more realistic conclusion .
SRF use or not on the other hand is also difficult to judge , i can't hide once again that at Chic challenge i wouldn't be able to run a single lap without it but with the Ruf for example didn't have promplems to do it.

I think especially for stock car that a bit lower pp or an extra weight is more fair than a tyre less and that according to the total amount of power and the character of the car.

As about the running no tune for sure @CozmicDragon is in first place and i think he secure his first win , still i don't know if SRF was on or not but doesn't bother since my purpose was training for crossovers and second to see if i can much @Thematic which always kick our a.s.s. when its about missions :indiff: that SRF don't exist.

Have a good Sunday all and because am a good guy ill eat one souvlaki for each of you today since barbeque occurs ;)
 
As mission KOs became larger and faster the frustrating factor increase .
You got to make improvements bit by bit , and for last after countless times comes the very last part that you play it a lot less and its its harder part since many times turns to be annoying seeing you ghost behind and skrew it up .
A bit crazy car that Citroen and at the beginning was hard even to gold it.
Trial and error ,trial end error and goes on .

Anyway this what i got till now and ill be happy if i can get closer to @Thematic which seems he found a way to deal with the last part frontrunner which i hit him enough for today .

I couldn't avoid the temptation to shoot some laps with the Ruf ctr .
The car is outstanding when it comes to " joy" factor .
TC of and screaming for traction while can stand almost any abuse , sliding at first corner and still over 180 mph . Tyre indicator still red at the straight of second lap end !!



PS
Master Noel will take my license after that ,but hope that nobody tell him.
