[mafia_boy]

Oi, Mafs, update the damn leaderboard!!!!!!!!!!

It's updated dammit!!

Also, RJ, can you give me the hp/weight/PWR for the R129 SL600?? I know it's a verified 200mph car, just need the stats bro. 👍

550hp, 2229kg, 4.0527.

 

[mafia_boy]

Thanks mate. 👍 Stats have been added.

 

[MadMax]

Month ago I did 323km/h / 200 MPH in Nissan PENNZOIL Nismo GT-R (JGTC) '99
(no ballast as I intended to find the car's max speed)

593 BHP / 1200kg 2.0236kg/bhp

Done offline , solo run.

,

Online 322km/h , checked replay in MPH = 200 MPH

Should I..?

 

[Milldrum]

Oh yeah, first i was the seventh fastest driver in HarveyWallbanger's FF Challenge, now I'm a TTT member. Lifes pretty good at the moment.

Are you going to keep everyone's run/stats or just a top few and push the bottom one off?

 

[Onboy123]

Hey, small correction, I hit 202mph, not just 200. And Imma coming into your room to get my 599 run verified!

 

[mafia_boy]

Should I..?

YES!! Otherwise a monkey will be tearing a dwarf up.

 

[XDesperado67]

Now that my 600PP Monster "Phantom" is posted and shared where do I find you online so I can crash the fun (if my connection holds up)

 

[mafia_boy]

Just look in SSR7 rooms or my lounge usually. I'm not on at the moment but will be in about an hour to start up a GME Drag Room. 👍

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

YES!! Otherwise a monkey will be tearing a dwarf up.

You and what army? I'd just clobber you with my axe until you'd behave

I'll see if I can find something fun

Oh well maybe tomorrow then as I have to get ready and go to work in about an hour.

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

Ah, victim found.

 

[Onboy123]

Yay!!! That's one mad finn in! Now for your cousin over at KMW to join…

Edit: Update! The E55 manages 204mph with an adapted version of Milldrum's gears. Once I hit 206mph, I'll start on the next stage of my plan

 

[savage388]

When does the competition end? I might have a secret weapon in the 5+hp/kg range but I don't want to miss the deadline

I retract that statement. It appears that acceleration is more of an issue and horsepower matters over aerodynamics as a result. I've tested quite a few cars that IRL have a low cd and they just can't accelerate fast enough. It seems that the land yachts at mb have decent aero and tons of horsepower so the sl55 might be as good as it gets.

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

Not necessarily. Amount and location of torque peak has it's part too.

 

[XDesperado67]

Well my first attempt was a bust. Range Stormer at 2700kg with 4.10 power to kg ratio tops out at 190mph might find a bit more but not another 10mph.
Next test is to reduce weight and power both and see if the absolute mass has an effect or if its just aerodynamics.
Unfortunately that will have to wait till I come home from work.

You won't get within 20 feet of me, not with the monkey taser in hand.

On topic time, I'm doing a live update from my currently open lobby where some cars have already hit the scene with new cars added from PSN members who wanted to join the fun. 👍

AntiLag_CA18 was the first to strike, with his NSX-R '02 getting a nice respectable 202mph in his first attempt at running the TTT gauntlet, getting a respectable 2.38kg/hp with a 434hp/1051kg combo. Next up came regular member Onboy with his E55, now improving his PWR to 3.30kg/hp.

We currently have a few different GTP people in here, and we also have cooldude running the GME drag room, so come for all the entertainment the monkeys are providing tonight.

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

Hmm.. almost there.

 

[Onboy123]

Mafs, when you've calmed down from your swearing fit, can I just say:
1) My rice was like stone cuz of you and your kicking antics
2) I quit cuz you were like a 5 year old boy who could swear and my mum was sat bang next to the TV speaker with you swearing out like a drunk For such a grown man, you do act like the most infantile child on the mic

 

[Leonidae@MFT]

Try to understand, he's just a greasemonkey, used to working on Fords and Op- er, Holdens.. ( hence the swearing)

199mph.. and the last missing mph is putting up a fight.

I'm used to it, he was probably swearing from the first moment he could speak…

Mafia's mum- 'Say mummy!'

3 year old Mafs- '****, ****,****,****, s***, s***, s***, s***, s***, s***' *sticks up middle finger*

 

[savage388]

Yes torque is a big factor because you need lots of it everywhere to get all that weight moving. There is an order of importance and torque is up there, but this being a competition I'll keep that to myself for the time being.

Mine has a CF hood, has been oil changed, and has a few miles on it, hence the slightly lower weight and extra power.

OK, that explains it. But why doing a Weight reduction?

Take my config and add some power and you go easy 200.

The CF hood was already done before this challenge was even thought of. Back before my PS3 first broke I'd been racing in a PP limited room every night... I decided to try the SL55 at full weight just to see if the resulting high speed acceleration advantage was worth it. It wasn't.
