[RMan72]

That can't be your time .

It was a run with all aids off or on 0 no oil change and not pushing just getting a feeling for her on the track

I'm happy to post 2 times one with corner cut and one without, gives me more time in my RS

 

[smoothbore12]

Just a quick go on you RS with lot of errors and the cut

So as i said : that can't be your time , you was sandbugging

 

[RMan72]

So as i said : that can't be your time , you was sandbugging

Could be time will tell

 

[bjl23]

Am sure that you deal with it as one hit wonder ...... runing your car i was slower than my times 1-1.5 sec a lap with a car i don't know , i was suprized by the gearbox how quick is catching up the AI on first lap.
That can't be your time .

PS
And YES I DID cut the damn last corner for that time with mine and every car i try from the 50k bunch.
Since we all can do it as @bjl23 wrote, its upon us if we do it or not .
If we all deal to Not do it , i'll delete my time , if we do it ,we must do it all .

My suggestion is to cut it and thats will equalize everyone with no grey zones .
But as we all have prove here that we are racing in honor we can do it and the other way .

It's up to you guys about the last corner has it is in the rules, no need to delete your time.

50k corner cut

 

[RMan72]

It will be quite intersting this 50k battle.
Its car has his own benefits and those which are not in good aerodynamics have the power to to shoot when needed . I try some of them and its gonna be close.
@RMan72 RS is very well in gearing from low speed and under his " care" ...... can bring DOOM.
Also they can the other monsters , a bit more carefull in braking and they can vanish in every straight.

50k first attempts but not with very much to improve .

.........for the battle cars
With every car at the end of the lap in the big straight am dealing with the real estate ........ just buying land right or left .
I dont wanna be an estate agent ....... just want to brake

PS
Is that trans am so slow or i am ?
I think i prefer to say " i love @bjl23 " .......... than post my time with the pontiac
Don't forget to mention @RMan72 with the replay he gave me, the man is amazing .

I'm with the Comèdian. This car choice is not funny. PD disrespected this car so bad. Even with race brakes it won't stop. It's to damn heavy for the low PP. 2nd run and Done Getting passed by 4cyl cars when this car IRL would have blown away the competition in this obsurd choice. I hurried through the Intl B license test to run this race. The VW prize car stomped the field. Waste of time and credits. Car sold. This is over for me. I bet @RMan72 will run in the 6 minute bracket.

No Tune

since you haven't posted your time, say it, go on say it.

 

[smoothbore12]

Damn Barnabas had to start all over again , tests, championship.......

@Racin510s its better to buy a good car ( or as they need it for) and put your bspec driver to run the championships. So you griding and unlock the races also.

@bjl23

No tune

I don't know which is worst so i post them together

 

[RMan72]

Sorry guys didn't realise the Trans Am wasn't a good car

I had driven her tuned and it was quite fun. I thought it would be appropriate to pick her as a tribute to Burt Reynolds.

I'll give her a run later and give my thoughts

You don't know these things until you try them, I haven't driven it before but I am looking forward to it to see what all the negative comments are about.

 

[smoothbore12]

Its not a bad car with bad behavior , its just tooooooo slooooowww on aceleration.

 

[bjl23]

50k update

 

[Racin510s]

@RMan72, the Trans Am is a fairly good car when tuned, but it is just too heavy for the low PP. As I said PD greatly disrespected this American Icon. The Tribute to Burt Reynolds was a good choice, unfortunately not for a No Tune event. It's all good. Just waiting to see you astonishings times with it.

[smoothbore12]

No tune update
According to my fastest lap there is room for improvement , but there is a big but when me and consistency we are in divorce .

 

[Nismonath5]

Kicking things off for the battle royals!

I need a bit to get used to the feel of the other cars, they're so freaking light that the slightest bump or wrong move seriously unsettles them!

It's at bathurst though, so like I have the advantage there... @Vic Reign93 and I had our fair share of battles there over the years






Man I miss the times we had...

 

[smoothbore12]

Battle royal part 1 ktm
Runing my own set up and after @praiano63 set up.......all laps was in 2.04 !!! Perhaps consistency hear what i said about divorce
After runing a few laps with praiano tune i wasn't able to run again my tune .

Just 2 small shaves on a wall and room for better times for sure , but ........ i ll stay here.

I save a vid with my first lap but i will load it later.

 

[RMan72]

60s - update

Wasn't expecting that from the Chelsea Tractor

Team Blue - R2 1st go

Over to you Barnabas aka @Racin510s

 

[smoothbore12]

Battle royal part 2 , vid is from fastest lap

And x bow first lap

 

[Nismonath5]

Yeah, I was fully expecting to get squashed as far as my time in the Caterham. That car and I have never really seen eye to eye, and it fights me whenever it can.

Feeling more confident about the X-Bow and the Rocket, not so much the GSX, but we'll see!

 

[bjl23]

Hey everyone if you guys want to enter in the ONE HIT WONDER any time this weekend just send me a PM, cheers.

 

[Racin510s]

Nice driving Mr. Comèdian!👍👍 I finally broke 500,000 credits so I can buy the X-Bow. I have been using the RX7 Bathurst with @shaunm80 tune for the 02 RX7 Spirit. Took down the Veyron in the Great Championship and unlocked the license test for Intl A. I'll get the Europa tomorrow. @Nismonath5 loved the videos. especially the all Oz run in the Monaro. The thing I miss the most from my other game besides the 50 mil credits is the Metallic Diamond Red paint chip. It was a real Candy Apple paint. I do have the ones that come with the AE edition though. This RX7 is one of the best cars in the game even with stock suspension which I did the majority of the races with. Over 200 mph no problem, 450PP-587PP handles on rails except when the meds kick in. Don't drive on drugs. @RMan72 you set the bar, I'll try not to disappoint. No race to post yet but coming soon.
