Wonderful, I hadn't seen that before.

Race #9 it is. Using this car.

It'll look something like this.

OMG that slogan made ma laugh!!

"Toyota let's, go places"
And Jocke shows a rocket lol

 

[qken]

After a couple of cold bottles (six pack) of confidence (beer ) I did a lap of 1.52.013 Hope I can improve on that time until Tuesday.

 

[IfAndOr]

Indeed they do..

Is that the new Toyota Space Cruiser?

It's a bit different to the old one...

 

[Mikey24]

It'll look something like this.

Kill it before it breeds! Ugly car that is!

I like Toyota but c'mon!

 

[o_OPaTricKO_o]

I'd ask for a second opinion.

The second one gave me a...

I'm getting slightly weird feelings regarding my doctors...

 

[jammy21]

It's still fast laptime.

Ah, but remember guys that my 1:49.622 was at lap 12-15 in my solo-race with 50% less fuel in the tank.

 

[Dimse91]

managed to get 1:50.363 lap time in motegi. Need lots and lots of practice to jump into49secs

It sure is!

I had a little free time yesterday so managed to get a few more practice laps in. I couldn't break 1:50! The best I could.do was 1:50.003
0.003! I shouted at the screen.

Chasing Jocke's time has made me more consistent in the 1:50's though. Thanks Jocke. 👍

Right must go, theres half a second to find somewhere.

---------------------------------------------------
Does GT actually take into account the fuel weight?

 

[o_OPaTricKO_o]

Frustration!!!

Change the lyrics to "...I'm a crap..."

 

[IfAndOr]

Frustration!!! ]

Oh don't worry Patrick, it can't be that bad!
Don't get fixated on the lap times. It's better to be consistent in the race. (And stay on the track)

I'm usually rubbish when it comes to the actual race, I'm never aggressive enough. But I like it that way.

The lap times is one point. The second is that I can't see my brake point references at night, so I land systematically into the sand boxes...

Well you have got your bucket and spade to play with in the sand.

But you're right, night time does make a lot of difference. My best times were done in full daylight.

*Toyota fact of the day;
In July 2012 Toyota announced it's two hundred millionth vehicle after 77 years of production.

And I saw three of them on my way home today!
________________________


Last Tuesday and Wednesday I never announced the lobby open for race #1, instead I just snuck it open
and let drivers enter one by one as they noticed it. It worked fine then.
The trouble is when ten people try to enter all at once.

So I will perform the same procedure tomorrow for race #2, I will have the lobby open ~1 hour before qualifying
and let drivers find the room themselves. As long as the room gradually fills up it seems to work fine.
Just make sure you have changed the oil before entering and don't have to exit the lobby. That's when the
invisibility issues start.

As far as I know the only racing category Toyota haven't tried is truck circuit racing;

For the simple fact they don't manufacture those types of vehicles. I wish they would.

It reminds me of the X-bow from that angle.

Need lots and lots of practice to jump into49secs

I couldn't break 1:50!

Frustration!!!

Was my 49 just a wonderful dream?
.. checking..
No, it's in the replay alright.
I need to get on the track again to see if I can duplicate the time.

I might get on in an hour if anyone wants to join me at Motegi.

Don't get fixated on the lap times. It's better to be consistent in the race.

That's true. I'm still not as consistent as jammy for example.
I remember the very lap after my 49.6 was a 53.xxx

I shouted at the screen.

You Paul? You're always so calm otherwise.

 

[IfAndOr]

You Paul? You're always so calm otherwise.

That's what 0.003 does to me. It's all your fault.

I've even repainted mine in a shiny silver colour in an attempt to make it go faster.

Here's that whale mouth again.

 

[JockeP22]

Here's that whale mouth again.

 

[jammy21]

Did I say that I'll be there for race #2? It seems right now that I might do all the races.

 

[JockeP22]

Did I say that I'll be there for race #2?

No you didn't.
So who will it be driving your Toyota's. J.J. Lehto?

 

[jammy21]

Oh, I forget that. It's me

No you didn't.
So who will it be driving your Toyota's. J.J. Lehto?

 

[IfAndOr]

I might get on in an hour if anyone wants to join me at Motegi.

I waited... No Jocke.

I hope after all this practice I'm able to join you tomorrow. Well actually it's today now!

 

[Mikey24]

I may come online for some practice, but I'm not sure, it's 2AM.

EDIT: I'm online now. 👍

 

[JockeP22]

EDIT: I'm online now. 👍

I'm joining in five.

Sorry Paul, I got stuck in front of the computer watching "The Party" with Peter Sellers.
Have you seen it?

 

[Mikey24]

Well that's if I can open a damn room, been getting "Failed to create room" for 50 times.

EDIT: Open

 

[JockeP22]

EDIT: Open

Had fun with Mikey at Motegi. Got some good practice in although it'll be quite different driving
in the pack.


Again sorry for missing you Paul. Having some thai dinner leftovers and watching Peter Sellers made
me lose track of time. I didn't think anyone was able to meet me at Motegi anyway.
I saw your uploaded Supra at the community.

I'm sharing it here if you don't mind;

I was going to say I've never seen Toyota involved in dirt track racing, especially not sprint cars but I found this:

Who knows if it's powered by Toyota or just sponsored by them...

Also I ran 1:49.831 earlier but that was during an arcade time trial during the day with no tire or fuel wear or anything, since I can only run fast laps if I have a ghost to race against.

 

[o_OPaTricKO_o]

Sorry Paul, I got stuck in front of the computer watching "The Party" with Peter Sellers.
Have you seen it?

So, how did you find the film?
Let me guess!... Judging by your new avatar pic , it was OK...?...

 

[Dimse91]

So as i see , this evening race will be 2 hours earlier ( 18:00 GMT ) ? If so, then i'm really happy about this !

 

[JockeP22]

but I found this

Nice find, blue. They (Toyota) really are everywhere.

So, how did you find the film?

Actually this was the second time I've watched it. I saw it once a few years ago. It's a sweet movie,
Sellers is a great actor and the story escalates little by little until you don't know what's going on.
And his three-wheeled car is quite interesting.

So as i see , this evening race will be 2 hours earlier ( 18:00 GMT ) ?

Maybe you're thinking about the so called 'track time' in the game, Dimse?

All eight races are scheduled for 20:00 GMT. 👍
