Yo VTEC, nice to see you have 2 drawers set aside for chocolate.
That's important man.

Lemme show you what i sit in.





That isnt me in the first pic, btw.

Right, lets have a look at Luxy's board, and see what to race tonite.

See you in the morn.

:irked:đź‘Ť
 
@ puck927, u know i too could see why someone would want the tcs on, I mean its really easier for someone to get cleaner laps with less to worry about (wheelspin) Bit the last thing I wanna do is start an arguement, thx for the heads up. Race how u wanna race Androos!

@Tuff240, so when u did those Volvo times did u do them in Sim mode with it all 'jazzed' up or arcade mode with the WHOPPING 152 HP? Just curious cause u were flying in that hunk of metal dude!

@vexd, so where did u get your stand for your wheel?!?! How much was it, and can u send me the link? Thx, I'm still kinda debating on getting one.

Nice, I still need to find a proper seat for mine and then it'll be finished. I'm thinking of getting a stackable school/office chair, taking the legs off and fixing the chair onto some wood or seat brackets. I've seen some that are a little like go-kart seats.

Anyway, sorry about that, here are my new Ts:
T1: 0'30.679
T2: 1'08.081
T3: x'xx.xxx :sly:
On the lap after this one I beat that T1 by almost .6 of a second but lost it on the hill, so I know I can be a hell of a lot faster but i'm still pretty pleased with my progress this week seeing as i've been adapting to a new FFB wheel.

EDIT: btw, why do people put an @ at the beginning of names? just curious.
 
I dunno y we put an @ at the beginning, I'm just a lemming I guess.

ah, kk. I hope i'll enjoy next week as much as i've enjoyed this week. I have a lot more time next week since i've kinda finished job hunting (I've sent out like 25 letters to garages). And hopefully if I dont get given any crap to do round the house then I can just drive loads. I think i'm now better with a wheel in manual than I was with my DS2 in auto.

so ur saying that u cant drive with the ds2 in manual?
 
I probably could but I just found it really boring but having a wheel with paddles and a stick shifter makes you WANT to do it more than a DS2 does.
 
Whelp whelp, had a good and looooooong session last night... Test drove MANY fun cars that would make for some great competition; Lotus 350, TVR 350, Z06, BMW M3 GTR, RUF RGT, RUF BTR, RUF CTR, Nismo Fairlady Z Tune, the RX7 Spirit would be pretty darn up there if it had a bit more power, as it is it puts down decent times... But anywho, R390 it is, maybe I'll submit a time with the R390 and a time without it just in case Kent feels like posting them.

T times in the R390(SS tires all around, TCS on):
T1 30.163
T2 1'06.760
D3 Ds2
 
Oh, @ Jump_ace, the volvo times (1'08/1'09) are the fully modded times, downforce and everything else. What he's been able to do in the arcade mode so far is listed at the bottom of Luxy's leaderboard... Hehehe. Peace man, good luck!
 
T1 29.771
T2 1'06.031

This time'll most likely be submitted... It was a close one, so I doubt I'll be able to eek out any more... Time to go do RL things, lol. Good luck everyone!

@ Exelero, I'm still waiting on a fast lap submission for the teams event from one person as of today. I'm going to try and finalize and post the team results tomorrow morning if possible. If I don't get the final fast lap time by tonight, I'll just score a zero for that particular driver and get everything finalized and the results posted up in the teams thread.đź‘Ť .

read the results Todd thanks!!
it must've taken alot of hard work and your time to work it all out.

still... i'm well chuffed. WELL DONE to all who took part and CONGRATULATIONS to my partner puck927. i'm over the moon with 3rd over all. you can be my wing man anytime!!!!!!

I managed a very sucky time..T1 was like 30.7...I only ran 5 laps so..whadya expect. :)

What division are you in? I can pretty consistently beat that T1 by .4 - .5 but I certainly wasn't getting it in my first 5 laps.
 
just wanted to take this opportunity (cos not gonna be around for a couple of days) to say good luck to everyone racing this week.
i myself wont be submitting as i just havent had the time. i'm a bit 🤬 about this cos it means i have to give way on the leader board to Casio, but i'll be back sooner than he expects!!!

i hope when i return, i see a time from Kolyana. a truly talented female, who gives us all a run for our money and something to aspire too as well as a smile from her quirky admiration of all that is purple! :) :bowdown:

go get em y'all!! :cheers:

chars! I just got my customised title thing! wooooo!
anyway, good luck to anyone who's already submitted. For once i'm gonna wait until the last minute to submit so I can get a really good time. There are some easy points up for grabs this wek so Im really going for it.
 
Ahh man! Bummer! Them's da breaks I guess. Nice work Randy (sorry I duno ur real name). way to stay focused, I haven't raced in the last 2 days I think.... :ouch:
Oh yeah and man, that is one sweet avatar!

Here are the T-times from my submitted lap:

T1: 29.640
T2: 1'05.379 đź‘Ť

I think I made quite a bad :indiff: T2-T3, but I think the time still is going to stand quite well in Division 1. Hey, it's my first week (in Div1)! :D
 
@holl (I think it was) ~ I find it hard to run manual on DS2 .. trying to rememebr to hit the button to shift all at the same tine as sterring, throtle, and brake.. /shrug maybe just to old for this .. :sly:
 
( injured myself yesterday at work, had my left hand's middle finger stuck under a 36" Sony Wega tv... the heaviest of tv's man.....
well it cut my finger just a tad, which will make it REALLY hard for my downshifts........ :( just thinkin about it )
 
Time Submitted....

I couldn't resist this one. One of my favorite circuits in the game and specs that rock on a car I like. I didn't go for the R390, that is far too easy...rather I jumped into my RUF RGT, set it to spec and ran about 30mins worth of laps (the first OLR hotlapping I have done in months). It felt good! The RGT is in very nice spec at 400hp/1250kg, however I hadn't run S3 tires on an RGT in a while, most of my game play is done on N1s ot N2s. I enjoyed it, though a RGT can't compete with a R390.....

I raced in week 2 and dug the Nismo Z, so I thought I'd give this a shot. I do prefer El Capitan in reverse, it has better flow.

T1 - 31.516
T2 - 1'09.384

There is at least .5secs out there for me if I worked at it, more for fast guys.

See you all when I see you.
 
Well I tried to put in some more laps just b4 the deadline and I trimmed about another .15 sec although my splits don't reflect it. That randymcchickenf (what a name...lol) really made me try one last ditch effort, thx for the comp man!

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SEND YOUR TIME SUBMISSIONS TO KENT THIS WEEK!

A few people have sent to me by mistake, so keep that in mind when you submit your final time. Thanks everyone!



hOt6o4bOi: Please clean out your PM box as i need to contact you regarding BC5, and your PM box is full. Thanks.đź‘Ť
 
Thanks for the reminder CFM, almost sent mine in to you as well! Last gasp effort and I put together a lap way better than anything I have so far. Think I'm gonna submit this one.

T1-29.363
T2-1:05.169

R390
DFP

Good luck to everyone still running!! And thanks for the praise Exelero, but the congrats go to you too. It wouldn't have happened without a teammate who put in as much time as you đź‘Ť!
