Easy to take the first 36 off the table, little more difficult with the rest. It would be impossible to estimate as you have no idea who is cheating and who is not, just curious as to how he came up with his number. If 20 people made the top 150 in the two hour then that is possible.

Like I said, it was an estimation.....meaning I did not count. :dunce: And, like I said, at the time of that post, I was ranked 130ish or so. Stop trying to make a big deal out of nothing. I've given you my explanation, now drop it. This isn't the first time you tried to start crap with me and its getting a little old. Now, lets move on shall we. 👍
 
I honestly was not trying to make a big deal of it, I was just asking a question as I was curious if you were seeing something unusual in the other times. In my opinion the worst part of this hacking is the doubt that is raised about either someone making s best ever time or a good time made with a different car.

Ah, I see. My apologies then for misinterpreting your post. 👍 Like I said before, for me personally, I am just using Amo as a baseline for the start of the legit times, or times ran in unhacked cars, if you will. Again, my apologies for the misunderstanding. :cheers:

EDIT: Down inside the top 100 now even with the hacked cars times. Sitting at 94th atm with a time of 1'01.173. Could possibly have my best finish yet if they got rid of the hacked cars times.

I apologise too, I guess I'm just too used to people making comments like that just to start arguments. :lol:
 
:yuck: How do idiots get to hijack the Seasonal Event Time Trials.

By the numbers involved I'd say very easily, Dasher.

However, as has been pointed out many times previously, they do not stop us legit racers from posting our best times.

Just gives us something extra to talk about.

And as for Cargo's 1:01.173, go and break another leg why don't cha'.

Well, that's not a very nice thing to say. :crazy: Guess you'll just have to delete me from your friends list then if you want that number one spot. :sly: And I'm even playing on a crappy old 27" CRT TV :lol: as my flat panel is packed away in preparation of me moving.

Ha ha, fact is I'll never be on top of my list as long as Pmjg is on it, and it seems, yourself.

Ah, come on now, you gotta have confidence. You've improved a great deal since I've known you and I'm sure you'll improve even more over time. 👍 Spoken out of character I know, but I can be nice.....sometimes. :lol:

Nice lap. That puts you 4th in U.S. I think I can find a little more time, but not much.

Thanks for the compliment, appreciate that. I hadn't even noticed where I was ranked as far as the U.S. goes, thanks for pointing that out to me. I'm still leaving about another 3 to 4 tenths out there, just need to string it all together.

Can you put your tune up then Cargo, I might give the Suzy another try.
 
Well, i am pleased with my result so far, 1:01.757 #221 in the GSX-R [much higher up when the hackers are removed] and i think i may be able to squeeze a few more tenths too. :D

EDIT: 1:01.670 now, #201

Did a couple quick laps and I'm 200ish with 1:01.6, gonna try with a wheel later.

I'm using the GSX-R and I wonder what setup are you using guys? I've done that time with full aero, full ballast and standard weight distribution. The car still understeers a bit and oversteers a lot, I guess there's a lot of tuning needed to be done ;)

Want me to put him in 5th place then? :P

Nahh, just kidding. The hackers don't make it worth it for me. :( Nice lap though.

Did a 1:01.038. Not doing it anymore because I don't like the combo.

:lol: Good to know you're not going to show up and mess with my ranking too! :)

edit: oops, looks like you did...
 
Moved through many game days to get the GSX from the used car garage, made my first goal of < 1:02.5. Now off the get a sub 1:02. May need to get a better tune, I have a basic, neutral tune on now.
 
Anybody else tried the Audi R8?

Ran 8 laps, improved from 1.04.7 (with the GSX) to 1.02.2:crazy: My best result ever to be in top 600. Have I found THE car? This was with stock suspension settings and a pad.
 
I tried the Piriano's 500PP tune and it's super super loose. I see guys in sub 1.01 times. Would someone be so kind to post your tune? I really need to see if it me, or the tune. I can't believe I am this far off!!!!
 
Ive had a 30 mins session got 1:03;0s, To anybody using the GSX who got into the 1's or 2's what is your bhp at? As i recall there was a clever way of getting it high depending on what youve added to the car

I'm using Priano's 500pp tune and changed it to full ballast (840kg) and full aero (20) to get 256 hp. Lap time is 1:00.902. May not be the best set up, but it's worked for me.

Do you have the link too that tune?

I am such a noob at tuning, I didn't even check for the aero settings on this car LOL!

I changed the ballast distribution so that the car is at 50/50. Helped keep the tail in significantly on the last long right hander.

Time is 1:02.069 atm

Will change the aero settings after work see how I go.

Sorry, I don't know how to do that yet. Go to GT5, Forums, Tuning Forum, and Priano is about the 13th one down. He has a long alphabetical listing of tunes a little ways down the thread.

I've considered it, but I thought it would be too heavy for the purpose. Will definitely give it a try now though.

It's been so long since I really ran a 500PP car that I forgot how few I would actually play around with. Like with the 500PP seasonals, I would grind them with 3-4 cars. It always felt like there were more 500PP cars I liked to drive, since it's one of my favorite PP ranges. Guess it's a good time to find some new ones to enjoy.
 
I also had a go with the Audi R8 but found it wasn't faster than the GTR, 1:02.3.

Of course the tune is everything.
 
I only got to 1:06.x with the GSXR4 but haven't gotten around to fix the setup yet, so there should be more in it.
 
Just had a session with the GSX now sitting at 1.01.277 position 180. Take off at least 60 hackers =120 best result ever but can do better.
Car is on share psn stewyripper:tup:👍👍👍👍

I used the R8 4,2 without weightreduction, just transmission set to 200 km, and drivetrain + suspension updates. Power reduced to 91,9. The car is very easy to handle, I was in the 1.03s on the second lap of my run. 8 laps = 7 white and 1 red.

I can`t belive I was quicker then you. Im not a fast driver at all; online or at timetrials.
