MY LAST LAP ON THE CHALLENGE HUB EVER!!! :(



Thank all of you guys so much for amazing time through all of the years I was part of our little community
IMG_20211216_220525~3.jpg

I wish I had my wheel to finish my last stint and to have chance to win bit I'm happy because I gave my best with thrash broken controller.

I hope we all reconnect in some other "productive" project soon but also to stay in touch no matter if we will play GT7, GT3 or SIms On PC.

Also thank you Babis @smoothbore12 for reminding me lasf few days on the beginning when I just came in here :) Biggest thanks to boss Bryce @bjl23 for doing crazy job.. Honorable mention to Hugh @RMan72 for being major pain in the ass all the time.

I'll probably stay doing schools for a while with Noel if I set my DFGT back soon and as for next year I still don't know if I'll buy PS4 + GT7 or I'll go different direction with PC and some very cool racing games which still support wheels I'll have at disposal (g25, g27, dfgt etc)

Love you guys

Love you to Tinkerbell ( hope Bryce don't be jealous ) .
Outstanding lap , considering the pp at 550 with the world record at 21.7 with that time at 600pp probably your time can put you at top 50 or less .
Its hell of a " train" the chapy on this track , isn't ?

So i guess you deserve the gif of the day .
For all those guys with their outstanding performance ,that make us feel poor relatives sometimes !!!!!

Wanted everyone to know that the hub is not ending but being passed the Noel and I. We will continue with the "school " races as well as No Tune and time trials.
Noel and I will continue the selection of the tracks, cars and rabbits for the regular school race. This is the race that requires a video. Same rules, clean racing. Remember it doesn't matter if you win, because there will be some that you can't.
The No Tune races are open to suggestion. We know that they can be done clean. No video but will rely on the honor system.
The Time Trials will be user generated. The only requirement is to participate in the school race. With that the winner of the race will get to choose the track. 2nd place gets to choose the car.
All submissions for each event should be sent via PM to both Noel and I.
Event new event will be a continual in the thread.
Once winners are announced participants are welcome to share their pictures and posts.
I encourage that everyone work together with tunes and insights.
We want this to be fun.. If you have suggestions please send them via PM to us.
The first Time Trial event. @RMan72 will select the track and @smoothbore12 chooses the car.
The school race and no tune will be announced at the end of the current race.
I hope that this will continue to be looked forward to as was all that Bryce's work was.
Cheers
Barnabas

Thanks Babis :)
Regarding the Chaparral, it's hard for me to say anything about a car because I'm really not used to drive on a pad, I miss throttle and break control also with SRF I can't judge the car. All I know is that the setup you shared works perfectly with this settings but it would be undrivable with no aids. I had very bad exits out of the corners(IMO) and also chickened out at the end of the lap because I wanted to end misery of entering in 19s. I think maybe we would see 17s if leaderboards were up on 600pp 2J. There are some really fast guys like Numbuh (Mar) who is here on div1. I raced him few times online too and even managed to win 1 time but he recovered like 10 seconds on me on Fuji In 1 lap I think and I just won basically a drag race on the final straight (Ferrari 458 vs Audi R8 :)). So to stop rambling now, I wanted to say I really enjoyed your combo's for the last round :)

:bowdown: for your lap at FIRE AT WILL
Not sure I can improve that much

You are so much quicker on the straights than me

thanks Hugh.. I really can't think of a reason why..but I'll try to guess differences if you use between our cars if you're using the same setup.. First I messed with a final drive.. It's not 4100 for me but around 3800 if I recall correctly, second I think in this combo MT is faster than AT.. Third I don't know if that matters is that my Chappy has 700 or 800 km.. If that helps I don't know if I'll be happy or sad when you beat me lol
Also maybe I don't suck with a pad as much as I think I do.. but will try with a wheel when I find a place to put it..

edit.. If you want my final gear ratio exact, I'll make photos of setup when I can but I don't think I touched anything else

Its not such important the final gear ,well that's what i think.
Your lap was outrageous fast anyway and you didn't use the brakes except few places .
Was like racing on RS and not RH as we saw at your vid .
Possessed ps3 ha ha ha .

Yea, I don't know, I'm far away from being a setup wizard lol (don't know anything about it).
I have no other explanations than why is my car faster on straight except corner exits but I honestly thought I could've done them better on quite a few places. I also didn't use Active Steering which I sometimes use in similar challenges. I actually thought my car was under 600pp when I did this lap because of kms I did but it didn't move since I didn't exit stint for some time (long time).
 
While I was testing screen recording on PS3 I had few laps recorded if anyone cares. They are short anyways. I think Kart one was my first ever entry in The Challenge Hub when I had set up in really akward position and did 361 lap stint to beat Hugh's time even tho I was in different division. I thought back than it was great time, it shows now that I messed up last part of the track to get into 24s. Second one obviously also includes chasing Hugh and manage to beat the time 5 minutes before deadline (also some mess at the end of the lap). Good but also frustrating memories :)
If someone wants to try beat the times, I'll leave vids and times. I had recorded one on GW 5-1 when I did 42.9xx which is fastest time I saw on that one but audio was a mess so I think I deleted it. Anyways..
