Right I'll be the first to admit that I'm excited and nervous for the first race seeing as it's my first online race against members of GTPlanet. I know that people will be watching to see if I race fair. I'll say right now I will race hard but fair. See you Friday!

From what i saw yesterday at practice you where very controlled and fair which is just what we need in this championship. Hopefully any unfair incidents that get highlighted by anyone will be dealt with properly by this new panel.

Thank you for the vote of confidence Boyce! Because I don't have a wheel I can't look sideways so I figured that if I couldn't see you out front or behind me you would be beside me so I would be a bit more careful. 3 days left!!! :gtpflag: 👍

On a side note some people have been complaining in other threads that due to patch v1.11 they can't work on their LSDs on FWD cars. I don't know if any of our cars are affected. If they are what should we do?

Side view is possible with a controller, at least if you use automatic tranny...

Try it with a G27 :crazy: It was fine with my DFGT as the D-Pad was on the wheel but seen as the G27's is on the shifter it's difficult to operate :(

Ummm... That would be a bit of a problem then because I drive, like most people, with a manual transmission. 👍
 
Sadly I might not be able to make the first race of the series lads due to current circumstances at home. Things aren't looking good. Its not for sure yet, it really depends how I'm feeling on that day but its not looking likely. Sorry :(

Ah, what a shame, what about the series launch on friday?:(
 
BIG PROBLEM FOR ALL FF CAR DRIVERS:

Since Patch 1.11, you cannot alter LSD's on FF cars!!!!
 
I hope that home stuff has nothing to do with violence.

MrM, I know, but I have never cared about LSD, I don't feel it would be necessary to tune it.

LSD is the most important tuning aspect in GT5. Get any car and put braking sensitivity down to 5 and most of the understeer is gone, it's a brilliant aspect of tuning. Most of the LSD problems can be fixed by the brake balance however, so FF drivers can try that if they are in trouble.
 
I have never been in such bad trouble with the Focus that I would need to tune it more. Currently, the only tweaked part is still the tranny - and look, I'm not losing anything to the rest of the field.

Yeah but I can't rest just on matching everyone else if I know I could be a bit faster. I used to be like you, just max the aero and adjust the trans accordingly, but driving the Honda without tuning was impossible to be competitive with last season, which sort of forced me into tuning.

Another example would be the Lexus in the V8's, the Camaro would kick it's ass stock, but I've tuned as good as I can do it and can compete with them.

Big up them V8s
 
But I tend to be happy with even moderate success, completely ignoring the fact that I 'could' be faster, when I really don't think any tuning would make the car much faster any longer.

If you lose the race by a tenth of a second don't say I didn't warn you.:P

If I lose a race by a tenth of a second, I'll be happy ;). Other than NASCAR of course.
 
Today I made for money then I probably did in the 8 months before today.

Started with 200,000, ended with 9,200,000.:D
 
Bit of news as I logged on to the TOCA Drivers Association: RacerPaul has left. Good to race him, a great sport. Hopefully we will continue on all fair in the V8 Challenge, but it's been great RP. 👍
