I had a bit free the tv at night since Mary was playing something at her phone ,so i try a bit - again- the Bathurst nightmare .
I did my first attempt just a bit under 30s , i pull out a nice 2.03 high but wasn't happy at all since i was to late on first lap 2.08 high and the rest was closet to 2.05s .
Was on a line with the BMW's but the first car didn't bring any troubles to pass him at first turn and the cars was in good line at the track plus the phoenix audi help me with a bit of sleepstreming after Forrest's elbow since i let him pass me.
I try again and discover a new element that occurs when you move so fast...... The backmarker !!!
So i try once more and to be honest the second lap was a bit of disaster since we change kisses with both BMW's at all the uphill sector and i left somewhere at least my right mirror near the cement wall.
Anyway ,from my side am quite pleased from the outcome since i was - finally- at a momentum for to clock steady and hug free .

First lap was 2.06 low and second one 2.05 high the next are on the vid that follows.
Thanks to @Thematic and the SRFless event he picked .
Thank God also that i didn't ruin everything at the back of the 320 i on last lap
 
@smoothbore12 fast times.. your times improved a lot since I joined the hub
I realy don't know ,one thing is certain ,if i trust my car and feel confident i push as hard i can .
On the other hand trying to keep the same pace didn't help me at all when control race needed as is the school lessons.
I loose concentration and skrew up my runs.
I wish i could use my old wheel but i have not space for that plus Mary she will start hiting me not only with a shoe ..... She will grab a see flipper and that's painful enough :lol:

Edit
Here it is my DIY seat for the future , resting about a year ago since i build it

@smoothbore12 it's good to see you keeping up your protein with those eggs while your racing. :lol:

:lol::lol: :lol:

We have about 50 chickens here and we sell the eggs that's why are there .
Our financial status is very low and that was a solution that occurs by the time we took the first 10 for home use at first place.

As for GT7 am also waiting too and mostly for what ps will release for.
I don't like the totally reliance from internet as gt sport have ,i like the plurality of gt6 in cars and tracks and the carrier mode .
Gt sport was start as an investment to support ps4 sales and nothing more ,also was addressed for limited audience and if i can say " professional " players .
I hope gt7 to be fully of content and not updated every 2-3 weeks to make it interesting .
Definitely i won't be from the first that will buy the ps5 since it will be expensive as it seems till now .
Same applies to gt7 if is for ps5 .
Although i believe the new virus situation that hit across the world ,will make tremendous change of plans in every aspect and might wait a lot more for the reveal of ps5 , gt7 and other stuff also.
When ps3 released was outrageous expensive against the ps2 which still remains the best selling console ever.
In about ten months we will know how when and if .
And definitely if i put in my hands gt7 i will support it whith a weel ,hope the g29 to fit for but i don't have high hopes on that.

Hello everyone! Let me start by saying that I haven't play GT6 since the seasonals ended.

Today however I looked at my DFGT and thought about having a go. Once I started the game I couldn't decide what race I wanted and because of that I started looking for a community based seasonal challenge and I found this thread.

Let me say that the no tune challenge is right up my alley and I am glad that you keep playing and challenging each other.

I had an amazing time with the challenge, unfortunately I could only do a 5:15 which compared to your times is a bit embarrassing.

I think I will be around trying more no tune challenges.

Best regards to all of you.

Great!
Ah, you still have time to improve, especially if the city circuit is your preference. :)

GT Sport has got a GT League and it is embarrassing for offline players to play and that is why I come back to GT6, GT6 career mode is way better than GT League in GTS, and PD should have put more effort into GTS for players that like to play offline.

There is talk going around that GT Sport is slowing down now, and this maybe a hint that GT7 in coming out at the end of the year and I hope it happens.

I think the wheels like my G29 and others will have support for the PS5, because of backwards compatibility for those who want to play PS4 racing games on PS5, it will be silly and stupid for Sony if you brought a PS5 and you also have to buy a new wheel just to play a racing game like GT Sport and other games on PS5 because of backwards compatibility.

Chances are 99% that g29 will work on ps5 but there is always but. one of the biggest reasons why I never got GTS is because DFGT doesn't work on it which was really bs.. also g25 and g27 not working. Very bad move.
 
:cheers:The Psychology of Winning Races:cheers:
  1. Competition is the impetus for innovation. The fiercer the competition, the faster race cars will go.
  2. There is some men a need to achieve greatness. When matched with talent, this necessity can turn humans into demigods.
  3. A man who is willing to die at the wheel is always likely to beat a man in a faster car---if he can survive until the end of the race.

See the GT-Rs? All four of them? This was the only grid I did and will do, but together with the AMG, or not, they were likely to go four wide on the main straight. And generally being a nuisance with their stronger top end.

As i remember from my runs with all the family of GTRs the SLS never climp infront of them .
There must be a hell of a battle among them.
Nice time mate ,did you take advantage of any sleepstreming ?
 
I watched an old replay of "Monza". There were five GT-Rs! That win must have been after many more tries than now, since the car, Z4 GT3, didn't have a turbo.

Not much... if I'm approaching the #1 chicane, I don't think I can peek at the rearview mirror. And Howe did extra braking in Curva Biasson, which made for a nice accordion. :/

Slip steaming makes a massive difference this race.

You have right ,as i also wrote after my first attempts last week , everything is about sleepstreming in that race.
Did the phoenix audi cut your way after the first chicane in curva biasson ?
At least three times we become one body and had to restart the race cause he use to move suddenly to the left will i was in overtaking on the outside .
 
Gt3 Cup final update


After two hours with 3 different line ups and enought restarts in order to achieve the best way to get on sleepstreming that have a point and because honestly is above all, i have to declare that None of my laps couldn't stand as a white one according to the TT mode for various reasons each lap .
 
I think media is just over the top with this.. We aer right next to Italy, no one except the media cares.. including me.
yesterday I had phone call w friend from Bari (southern Italy) and she said it's just ridiculous. Average age of person who. died. in Italy is 81. Also. I think therr is tons of. infected people. here in Croatia too. but we. are not. even testing anyone..

I have to agree, the common cold kills more people every year.
But it's still a bad thing to happen.
