I just don't know how everyone is running the Nissan VGT so fast. I do appreciate @RMan72 for giving the brake balance. 👍:tup:I ran a bunch of laps and only improved by less than a second. I would have thought that after running London in G60 that I could run a better time. The Supra in G60 was a blast. Gonna try the Ringkahana again before time is up. Can't drive looking at the a$$ end of the car. I did manage to get a handle on the Monaro with TC0, but reverse in the tunnel is killing me. Not supposed to get upset due to my heart condition so I had to stop. Last again,Oh well. Sorry for the funky video. My tripod is too tall so I had to hold my phone to record.

 

[Vic Reign93]

As I mentioned, here’s my run at High Speed Ring. 👍



Admittedly, I was probably cutting the turnaround point for the tunnel section at little too close for comfort, but I’m interested what you guys think.

Great run and video @Vic Reign93. Wish I could do that well. 20 seconds behind.

Last minute HSR lap update!!!

As usual, replay on the way in the coming days!
Though I must say, I just spent an hour trying to beat Vic at the drifting.... Got him beat in two sectors, but not that middle one.

 

[bjl23]

@Racin510s nice time in the supra but you have already passed it before.

@Vic Reign93 all good with the tunnel mate, as for the rest of us we should have used NOS as well.

Congrats to @lfm58 on the nail biting win in the NO-TUNE,
@Vic Reign93 a true master of drift and @smoothbore12 in the BATTLE.

[Slim_14113]

I suck at drifting guys any tips/vids?

@Vic Reign93

Put Toe Angle on both Front and Rear at -1.00 (the whole way left). This will allow you to be the most stable while drifting an FR car, in my experience anyway. There's more that I can go into with the suspension and all that but I cannot access my PS3 at this time, so, that'd be near impossible for me to advise you on what you should do. Drifting is just trial and error, just keep at it and you should be able to grasp it

 

[Slim_14113]

Okay doke. I'll get it done tomorrow time allowing

Also, drift challenge submission

The next Keiichi Tsuchiya of GT6? I should invite my friend to this lobby... I haven't met anyone better than him, and I haunted drift lobbies when I first joined GT

 

[Slim_14113]

Okay, hope this helps!!!
(Apologies for my terrible commentary )

Just saying you sound exactly like my friend Ethan (who I spoke to you about before). Maybe you are him...

* Then this song comes on as I have unraveled the mystery XD

 

[Slim_14113]

So, I was going through this forum catching up on everything with this playing in the background. For anyone who knows Wangan Midnight in here, you'll understand how chilling but cool it is to have this playing in your ears while scrolling this particular forum

nice mate, I can watch your replay.
So that means you are locked into the NO NOS category and need replays every time 👍

Happy to be in the No NOs category prefer not to use it as it's not technically allowed in most forms of motorsport

It's good for drag racing, not much else.

Can you imagine NOS in F1 or ALMS???

Maybe I should go in the NOS category with you not in it I'm a better chance of winning something

@Nismonath5, 1 word 'kers', it's the modem day NOS

Perhaps you could split it top 3 from last time No NOs, rest of the field NOs might close it up a bit.

I'm hoping the starting times even it at

I think some people wouldn't be happy about being in the NOS category since must people don't like it to, but some do use it to get faster so I thought of giving you guys the choice. Thanks for the feedback.

Now you have picked NO NOS some people might go into the NOS category,
LET THE MINDS GAMES BEGIN.
All part of my plan

 

[Pete05]

There's nothing funny about NoS.

 

[bjl23]

Nos it's not funny, here come the puns.

NOS makes you OXIDED

 

[Nismonath5]

1 word 'kers', it's the modem day NOS

Why had I never thought of it that way?
