The Official GT5 Time Attack Race Challenge Thread Here !

[VBR]

@2_FAST_4_U - rule 7 says "one lap runs", & I don't understand that? You can't do a proper run without several warm up laps (paddy did 12). Surely we should be able to do as many as we want, & then save the best one???

 

[paddycars1]

@paddycars1 - Unfortunately, there seems to be two things you've overlooked:


1) Weather Changeability - if it's on 0 the weather won't change, if it's left on 10 it might or might not (which will affect the lap times as the track dries).

2) Grip Reduction On Wet Track - if it's left at the default Low setting, lap times will be much faster (unrealistically so), than if it'set to Real.


Imho, Weather Changeability should be set to 0, & Grip Reduction to Real. Tyres are limited to Comfort Soft, right?

yes settings are correct I made them so this lap would be very hard to drive that's 100℅ of track water and 100℅ rain for every lap and grip setting on real just for a very difficult time and yes you can run as meany laps you like VBS

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

VBR... that 1 lap is not practice which is fine... it is the actual races should be only one lap... not two laps... or three laps etc... the time must be best one lap not best two laps or whatever... understand ?

If anyone wants to take over the management of the races I have already offered that and it still stands... let us know... I just prefer to race and not manage..

Id love to manage it, just dont expect a great schedule

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Real good cars, real world circuits, and a good schedule are a receipt for success ... so I would rather stay professional with these races...

Nope, still don't understand what you're trying to get at.

 

[paddycars1]

Nope, still don't understand what you're trying to get at.

VBR what 2_FAST_4_U is trying to say is you can run as meany laps as you like but only submit your final time on the thread.

[CBH]

I would love to join you guy's, but I will not because of a garage editor you can use in GT5.

 

[ShphrdOfFire]

Just as a heads up, I will be writing an article about these time attacks in a GT5 magazine. If you dont want to be mentioned in it, PM me by 2018-07-25. Nothing will be critical

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

fordlaser ... The garage editor is prohibited in our time attack challenges and no one has used it that we are aware of for any of our races. We all know GE is super fun for many things in many ways, but read our rules and feel free to join, cause we have been doing honorable racing in that regard. Any cheating jerks that ruin it for the majority of honest others would be ignored and their races would not be considered. Most can tell anyway...

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Nice run paddycars1... This 70 year good ol’ boy be coming for y'all right soon !

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Just a update... I'll be running the Nurb race later this week and post my times toward the end of the week... but, wanted to let you guys know I've been working out many particulars on setting up Drag Racing Saturdays which will be coming next month. In the meantime testing my Gasser's setups and getting ready for the upcoming drag racing events... enjoy the pics...

Cant wait for the drag racing.
I think they should be on Sarthe or Fuji, but it's up to you.

are your gassers hybrids? or ingame

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

They are hybrids...

 

[ShphrdOfFire]

They are hybrids...

will they be allowed in the drag races?

 

[jontikis]

6:55.889

Sports soft tyres, no ABS. Very small changes to the setup. The lap time can be smashed with proper tuning and a more capable driver, but I'm not going to bother, to be honest.

 

[ShphrdOfFire]

argh... this stupid track doesn't work for me. I can't participate.

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Sorry Shp,.. We'll catch ya next round then, and ya the drag cars are gonna allow for some fun radical stuff, but in classes of horsepower/weight ratios, so no worries it will be fair.

Perfect. I couldn't ask for anything more. I'll put the event in the next issue of my magazine

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Sorry Boys-This ol' geezer turned in a 6.55.906 on his first pass. Just wanna make sure you guys did know that you could do anything in the "standard regular" tune shop for mods ? If not take a second pass... maybe you guys needed to run a Jade painted car...

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Nurburgring Race Being Called-Double Points (Pending any very late entries over the next several hours)

A few race news highlights...
Very close race it was... Jontikis edged out 2_Fast_4_U by only about a hundredth of a second-Both had 6.55's though !
And paddycars was close and moves into 3rd place over his closest rivalry ShphrdOfFire who is very close behind.

Points To Date:
Jontikis = 25 points + 20 = 45 Points
2_Fast_4_U = 18 points + 16 = 34 Points
paddycars1 = 8 points + 10 = 18 Points
ShphrdOfFire = 13 points + (Race Missed) Previous Racer Bonus (Non Double) + 3 = 16 Points

Next is a "Dirt Rally Race" announcement coming later today...
(Drag Event coming next month as soon as the details are worked out to get proper timing-We Hope)

Come join the fun this coming week. It's not to late (unless you're scared) and get newcomer bonus points awarded.

This coming dirt rally race will be a choice of Rally Cars below running "pure stock, car wash and oil change only, tuning changes, but no tune shop add onsingno othe oil change the standard dirt tires

Hopefully I can participate in this one...Not many rally tracks work for me

 

[2_FAST_4_U]

Shp... Which "Dirt Tracks" do you have ? And I'm curious why you don't have the other circuits in today's times ? Suggestion-Maybe getting some help from the guys over in the "garage editor thread" can help you with that I think.
