I give the event a few more tries and I see if I can get in the 6:20s

Not to worry. The faster your total race time the more race cars you will have to crash into. A clean race is always many seconds slower

No, I do door to door racing on my first lap, no crashing into cars to get a faster race time or you can use your horn on your car, so the AI know your coming 👍.

The AI would easily be the most disappointing & frustrating part of the whole GT franchise for me.
A total slap in the face & insult to the intelligence of anyone that has followed circuit based motorsport on any level.

The point I’m trying to make is, although I tried to race clean as if stewards & penalties applied, sometimes it was just about impossible, especially when they’re the ones making contact.

I applaud anyone that tries to race clean but I know the struggle of dealing with the AI - if you can call it that.

NO-TUNE update. Finally in the 6:20s, and guess what there is more time out there. I Change the brakes to 6/0 and the BTR went faster .

A 6:19 is possibly, if the first lap is in the 1:36 lap time for me. The BTR is very good using a wheel .

No Tune - update

@skeagracing has the video for this one. There are a few more tenths in her if I can be slightly more consistent with lap times.

If I had consistent in my lap times, I will be well under your time.

I would love to see that replay

NO TUNE- update. There is still a bit more time out there on the track.

What wheel are you using? I haven't used my GT Force since March

 

[CBH]

G29.

 

[Slim_14113]

G29.

G29 has a clutch doesn't it?
GT Force only has accelerator and brake, and, I dare not try in an FR let alone a barely tuned RR, less I spin out which is highly likely

Yes, but I don't use it.

Yes, but I don't use it.

You don't use the clutch or do you mean the wheel entirely?

That's a huge increase in consistency 0.5s per lap. Would love to see the replay for this run.

 

[Nismonath5]

Apologies for the silence, I've been struggling with a bit of personal issues... dont want to moan to all of you guys as if you're a psychiatrist so I wont... but anyway here's my no tune challenge submission.

Absolutely trash, i know. This one was with 1tcs and no asm, and it was all over the show. Slipping, sliding, man I hate RR cars... tried it again with asm on, and although it was much more stable it was slower, though to rub salt in the wound when I was finally on a really good one, I rolled it on the last lap... stupid chicane...

Might give the battle a crack now then. I picked a car after all.

I should have put it on YouTube, so I could post it on here but I did not save it sorry. I love this car now .

 

[Nismonath5]

Also, I only just looked at the results from that "no practice, one hit wonder" challenge and... wow!

Now, here's my battle results this far. Much better!! The SLK has the advantage of being tunable, while the FT-1 is just flat out higher pp, even when the SLK's maxed... all in all, I'd say I did alright. definately upped my mood for today, that's for sure.

the btr when tuned is quite fun, but stock is utter trash that can only race high speed ring consistently XD

She's far from trash, you just need to learn her quirks

Thank you @Pete05 for the great post. 👍👍👍 You get what Noel and I do. Our times are gonna be slower due to fact we don't touch the AI cars even if we have a run on the them. I drive a lot from the roof view and if the AI make contact and my car shows damage as wrinkles in the paint I restart the races. If I have a run and don't make it to the corner before the AI and I hit one I restart. I think if everyone was doing that, the posted fast times would be so much slower and I believe the hub drivers would be closer together. It is dishearting sometimes to come in last driving it like a real race. I also hate front wheel drive cars. PD did a good job in GT5, but in 6 they are terrible IMHO.Maybe we need a Steward to Watch each of the races.
