I'll be joining you guys hopefully around 8 this evening. If testing for this was anything to go by, then there's going to be some fantastic racing here tonight đź‘Ť

See you on track!
 
Lobby open!

Thanks Rutter for posting the room number for me as I wasn't close to a PC.

I just want to say thank you to you guys for the very enjoyable racing and all your contributions. I have a replay that I have to post the first chance that I get, as in turn four we were three abreast Rutter, Enrico and myself man did we have some good battles.

You guys all rock.
 
DAMN YOU CRISPY!

Looks like Tiggles and ren-tec in a class of their own at them moment but I had a great race with Alexi tonight.

Have to admit I'm not that keen on this track this week because of all the blind apex corners but it does make for some close racing...

See you tomorrow at about 9pm GMT ..ish...
 
Good fun today, though I'm not going to be there tomorrow. I enjoyed the low boost races, any chance it will be used more in the future?
 
DAMN YOU CRISPY!

Once again, very sorry for last night guys...

I only reset the time progression after someone asked me too, clicked ok, and everything went horribly wrong after that! :embarrassed: Glitch maybe...?

Anyway, today's another day, so I'll be back again tonight. But for the love of god, if the room owner should ever switch to me, I'm not going to even contemplate going near any of the settings :nervous:

I asked for the change because sun was getting low :sly:, but I didnt have problems going on the track :dunce:. But when the owner switches its better to rejoin the lobby or make a new one with somebody who can host.
Could be router settings that give difficulties, anyways good racing last night the race with Rutter and Joy was really good đź‘Ť.
Tiggles is the man to beat, best I could run was 16.528 after fiddeling with the suspension settings a bit.

Joylord has opened a lobby.

Just added joylord and alexi to my friends list (hoping they accept soon so that i can get some practice in on the tracks). I'm looking forward to some good close racing with you guys. đź‘Ť

I haven't been on GT5 much since the end of March, when many of the people on my friends list that i regularly played with moved onto other games, and when the last GTP online event I was in finished. So I guess this is the end of my hiatus, or something like that.

Great racing tonight, I was actually able to keep up tonight and came in 2nd 3 races in a row, that'll do me!!!
 
My best lap tonight (without boost being on) was a 1:17.5xx, which I got right near the end. I think I'll try tiggles' tune, though I'll have to buy a new Evo to do it, since I can't remove the stage 3 engine tuning from it to reduce it to the stage 1 that he has.

You're right about the car's power, tiggles. The stock turbo on the car (no turbo upgrades on the car) seems to be a low/midrange turbo, which loses power as the revs increase.

EDIT: 2 things you didn't say in the setup/tune: the brake balance, and the torque distribution differential. >_>

TORQUE diff is the last 2 figures I put down.

QUESTION!
Does anybody here know where I can find old F1 races in primo quality?

Sam he means Torque distribution front to rear. As in you start with 1005 of your power and share it between the front or rear. example 20% and 80% or 50% and 50%. The values added together = 100. Its a different unit to the diff
 
Actually did okay today, except for being a little twitchy. Sorry if I was a little all over the place. My currents bests are a 1.17.3xx with boost off, and a 1.15.54x with boost on, after I was spun. It really shouldn't count, but I still think it's awesome. I'll have to try tiggle's setup, see how my laps improve. Considering how fast tiggle's was, it must be a good one.
 
Watch out Sam (Tiggles) im coming for you..


Managed to drop my time with some more testing and a whole new gearbox setting.

1:16.265

Ps, I see more on a very good lap ;)
 
Looks like people have been having fun.

I'm back from Dorset after my Kart race and although I managed to stick it on pole, we dropped a place during the race because I didn't do up my helmet properly, so it cost us 5-10 seconds in the pits and first place were 1.2 seconds in front at the end :ouch: .Another first place that has slipped through our fingers. We're still leading the championship though :)

Unfortunately I won't be around today or tonight because I'm off to the beach with the wife. I'm feeling pretty battered anyway, so it's probably for the best.

Hopefully back Monday, but there's a chance I might be dragged to Reigate for a country walk :grumpy:

Jon - I've changed the first post so it's says check last post for room number.

Tested Tiggle's tune tonight, and I'm surprised by it. Tiggle's tune alone shaved about a half second off my lap times. The car feel like it understeers a lot more than with my setup, but then as you power on through the exit, I'm gaining a few mph on my exit speeds. Keep up the good work.đź‘Ť
 
I was super proud with my setup... First time I'd managed to make people scratch their heads, haha.

I'll try get on some time soon.
 
I just want to say thank you. The quality of racing you guys produce is second to none and this is why I'm addicted to this game.
You guys all rock đź‘Ť.

Here's a short replay one of many from last weeks event.



See you on track.
