Dislike. We’ve had Interlagos already. What’s wrong with any of the other one billion tracks?
Agreed. And we're driving another GT-R!

I don't mind Interlagos, but there are plenty of other interesting options. Also, can we please get a street car with better agility than a refrigerator?

Heads-up, everyone: the track limits are more strict this time around. The track edges are lava. Use the run-offs at your peril...

I'll enjoy my gold standing while it lasts. Sitting at 1:49:2xx with at least half a second for me find. I have the sinking feeling that the gold threshold will drop to 1:47:xxx by the end.
 
As we move onto the next Nissan challenge TT, here are the stats for the Nürburgring GP TT, along with a summary of reward distribution over the first ten TTs.

Ohboy, i like interlagos, but not so close to the other GTR TT.
Plus the R34 is my least favo GTR, and by the idea of the standard suspention i will have again Maggiore DejaVu....
I hope they stiffened the seacontainer skyline for this one.

But maby it will surprise me, who know :-)

Great job, as usual!!!

Did the leadership change over the last days of the TT?
Thanks.

No, it stayed at 1:53.930, where it was quite early on. I suspect because the top guys are so used to Gr.3 cars, they got to what for them would be a well known limit quite quickly.

Thanks, and also PD not changing physics in the middle of the TT :nervous:


I have this picture in my mind....


left side: myself sweating like an hog to lower my limit with close to zero results after 123 laps

right side: a good one, driving with some classic music in the backgroud while eating an hotdog and burping, getting a top 100 time at lap 1

I should probably eat more hot dogs....
 
The R34 is more loose than I remember but I also don't remember driving it stock since some GT Academy on the PS3 so maybe it's the physics. Either way I decided to do this one early and have a 1:49.1 in about an hour of trying. I assume that will be enough for gold, but I can't assume how long it will be enough.
 
THis will be a tough one as I am not great in road cars, though good at this track. I did 6 laps for a 1.50.5 and I will need to find what ya reakon, 1.5 seconds to be safe? Gonna be tough.
I'm the opposite - OK with road cars, and no good at this track!

After a couple of hours, managed to scrape a silver time, but that'll be as good as I can get (will probably ultimately end up as a bronze time).

Embarrassing seeing people on my friends list 3 seconds faster.......😳
 
Looks like I got the gold for the last TT...if I remember the cutoff correctly, made it by .040 ....I'll take it lol 😆

So it's Interlagos again with a sport car on sport tires. Can't say that I'm any good with those since I tend stick with the GT cars.
 
Well I guess I'll use strong countersteering for this TT 🤷‍♂️ . It's not easy with the pad.

For the last TT I didn't wan't to say anything while it was still going. It was a surprise to see that the lap times didn't change the last few days. My second gold.

Thank you so much for your help in previous TT, I listened to your advices, learned a bit how to drive with TC off, a bit to break earlier and accelerate earlier, thanks for some other advices too, didn't got gold but I improved general skills a bit.
So now I drove ten laps and already got solid silver, almost gold, 0:300 missing, hope I improve enough for gold in 13 days left.
Thanks for great advices!
Good luck all with this one!
