Hey all,

This is my qualification lap for GT Academy nurburgring x2010 challenge will be coming this evening :).

 
Just an update with the nurburgring tutorial for the x2010:





Monza will come soon but easter is coming so will be after :).
 
Hey,

Just to let you know I'll be uploading my footage first to my own channel from now on and then the respected channels for which I cover footage for (As ill be producing for more than 1 website), if you would like to check out my channel once footage starts coming up (Ill be reposting links anyhow) and if you are following any videos please feel free to subscribe, but dont worry you dont have to ill be constantly updating here anyway non the less!
 
The Monza x2010 tutorial will be appearing tomorrow, on my own channel (Switched from theGTLeague in order to make that GTLeague focused and my entire GT5 video collection on /Tidgney).
I've also seen a message in my channel which says I can upload more than 15 minutes worth of video so am currently testing that out with a full upload of the race program to see if it will accept it :).


Sunday will see me uploading the first section of licences or as many as I can.

Monday/Tuesday: Is GT Academy so unfortunatly no videos as I'll be at ye old Brands Hatch :D!

Wednesday will be the rest of the licences for you! :)!



I'm also after racers to participate in a Le-Mans video please check out GTLeague for more info it will consist of 5 LMP cars 5 GT1 and 5 GT2, on the La-Sarthe circuit.

Hey,

This is taken straight from the guidelines presented from the RTCC;

Lexus IS F (RM)

Car Specifications:
295bhp @ 5100rpm
50kgfm torque @ 4200rpm
1185kg
4998cc Normally Aspirated V8
Front Engine, Rear Wheel Drive
Top Speed 173mph

Max Aero:
Front 35 / Rear 60

Modifications:
Fully Customisable LSD (optional)
Power Limiter Set (59.9%)

Additional Weight Added:
None


Engine Limiter takes priority then its BHP. So if you are at 59.9% and its over 295 then you must come down to 295. If your at 59.9 and not at 295 then you must stay at 59.9. All other setup can be changed :).
 
During the RTCC, there are 3 rounds per track (Once PSN is back) All cars will be under Parc Ferme conditions and mean that once each visit to a track has finished you need to rebuild your engine and then set your car to online. This is so people can see it (Now obviously some ppl can change cars or whatever but RoninGT people are trustworthy enough :)), and generally any difference in performance between cars can be seen :D!
 
So want to know how fast you really can go on the x2010 Challenge :)?







I know I have pumped out alot of x2010 videos but it really is a car I love to drive. The sheer fact that you can continue to improve and beat times and such a pace. Its very enjoyable, plus I know most people can't drive at such a pace which makes it even more enjoyable :). I personally would love something a bit more of a concentration span as I feel I have plenty of time to think even when driving this car to pick my lines, and think about sector times, gear changes (Although these were in auto I still can play at similar speeds with gears).
 
Hey all,

I know the order of videos has gone a bit do lally to what I said is happening but I'll be doing the licenses now, I spent about 15 minutes ish just playing about on them nothing major might spend a bit more on the harder ones, heres B1 and B2 with the rest of B tomorrow :).



 
I struggled soo hard trying to get bronze on Suzuka, and finally got it. Got Monza also, but when I played nurburg I realized something. I had turned sens to -2 thinking that would help me keep it stable, but the car felt super heavy. Changed sens to 7 and everything was cake. Tried Monza with the new setting and seriously... I could have done it so much faster had I just used 7 instead of -2 :ouch: Golded it in a few tries bettering my time with 15 secs...

Nice on congratulations, always make sure to check your settings! As settings can make major differences on certain challenges with the times!
 
Yeah, well. I continued on with Nurb and Suzuka and those were harder. Kept failing getting 2 clean laps at Suzuka and my best time so far at Nurb is 2,12... I just can't get that chicane trick to work which you did in your video.
 
Best thing to do is brake between 150-100m boards to begin with and aim for the middle of the barrier, once you begin to get it you should then be able to establish a more pin point braking point and turn in point :) It should start to bring your time down :).

Edit:

Licence B3: 25.656



Licence B4: 13.574

I always say no to TC but for some it does help, especially with very ungrippy cars. But if there's hardly any over-steer or a bit on 0 to 100% throttle I would highly recommend not to use it. Personally I don't use it at all even on very ungrippy cars either.
 
I turned it off once but got wheelspin at the very start, killing a few hundreds of a sec.. I'm debating whether or not a faster start with TC makes up for slightly slower cornering...
 
Well you can practice your start :), I know I have some very good starts but I find that timing your start would beat most wheelspin :). Keep at it without TC it will come to you :)!
 
Rest of B Licence done all done with no aids (Except SRF which is forced on unfortunately and ABS on 1);











 
Apologies if any comments or pm's have been sent on my YouTube I can't get on due to my email being hacked by a Chinese hacker unfortunately. Trying to sort the problem ASAP and will have lots of videos on constant upload once its back :). Including a Race program of the new RTCC, a mini montage and some more licence tests, I'm also going to announce the uploads of my best daily race which will be from my position in some open lounges :).

O and also just to note that on all licenses I've written a guide in the description, rather than doing a voice guide for each individual licence.

Good news I have finally got my Youtube account back so my video creation can begin again! My first will be a very mini montage made for a racing program which will be under development late summer with excellent close action racing using both the features from the GTLeague program and more!
 
Hey all,

Im starting something new called Race of the Week. Ill be uploading on each sunday the best race I have had all week! Now it's upto you whether you want my PoV or just the TV Cameras but here's the first one from the TV Camera.

This is a race between the fastest racers I race with, we are extremely competitive and it's a very fun race! GTDrivers_Ghost (Silvia), DeMiSe-Bennett (Orange Lexus), Wolfsting (Yellow Lexus//Teammate), RoninGT_Dave (Evo). O and btw watch out for these at the next GT academy because we all want to meet up at the next one and trust me their 1 lap pace is up there!

This is a 21 lap race which has constant action from the get go, its touring car rules so a tiny bit of rubbing allowed! Also watch out for the Mclaren/Redbull moment!

Enjoy:

Decided I'm going to do something different with the race of the week and do them from my PoV so you can race with me and see how I react in certain situations! Here's week 1 again but from my PoV:
