Weekly Race Series, Week 18

[pedrodaman]

Guess what! My Camaro is GUBBED too 6000K's on the clock ,well it was the very first race moddified car that i won ,so i used it for the better part of the game..May have to get me a new one of these ,I like this car a lot..

My Calsonic & Loctite Skylines are ready to go 0k's the Jag also,don't have the s2000 or the altezza yet but i might go win em to try them out ..

 

[Kelly]

The Camaro is worth buying again Pedro 👍

Don't bother yourself with the Tezza

 

[pedrodaman]

Ok i had nothing better to do ,so i thought i would post this up.

Camaro race car....Win Amateur American championship or win endurance SSR11

C5R This can be bought, also by winning endurance super speedway

Team oreca If you don't have a X/Sharkport you're gubbed this car can't be won again ...EDIT I've have been corrected here, apparently NTSC users can buy this car at the dealership...Lucky gits Cheers Punkrock & Boom for pointing this out 👍

S2000 LM Win Amateur dream car championship,or endurance Trial mountain..

XJ-220 Win professional Gran turismo world championship

Storm V12 Can be bought,or win endurance trial mountain

RX7 LM Win amateur dream car championship,or endurance R246

Skylines These can both be won doing the amateur JGTC championship..the calsonic can also be won by doing laguna seca endurance..

Esperante GTR1 Can be bought, but also won doing the Pro dream car championship,or endurance seattle

Altezza Win pro Vitz/Yaris championship ,or endurance seattle,,on a personal note i think i will steer clear of this one

I think thats them all

 

[Talentless]

For the past several years the Trans Am has been the IROC car.

 

[Talentless]

I'm going to wait until most of the questions are answered before deciding if I'll run.

 

[CFM]

OK I settled into my freshly renewed Oreca Viper and ran a 2 Hour session as I already had some decent setts since I use this car so much. Best CLEAN save:

20.271 / 36.680

I know I can do better because I've been sub 20 at T1 a few times but it's tough to do consistantly.

So now it's off to race against this ghost with the other cars.

 

[Super-Supra]

Yes. I'll Be Competing .
C5-R Hates Me And I Hate It

 

[pedrodaman]

You GIT you CFman rub it in why don't you
I really love the viper and can't use it

I tried the viper anyways just to see and got a T2 20.8 but it handles sweetly,the best i've tried so far
I tried the brit cars not impressed by those need a bit of tunning to handle a bit better..

Well im off to win me another Camaro..
Later

Yes, ever since 1989 to be exact, when Chevy and the IROC foundation decided to disagree over the Camaro and the Trans Am was used since. The comment above about the IROC is honoring the car sitting in my garage. A '89 Iroc

 

[Jugend]

What tires are you using? I feel that I must ask, Have made a few laps in the C5R (T2 40.1) and Esperante (T2 40.3) I use T5:s that the car comes with and see T2:s 37 and below posted...

Have I got this wrong, should I use T8:s or is it my driving/tuning/car choice?

/D

 

[pedrodaman]

@ GTJugend it's up to you what tyres you use ...But everybody ends up sticking T8's on..

Someone asked earlier about the BHP,Yes those fiqures include oil changes..

 

[Jugend]

Thanks Pedro! It really confused me when I thought that it was T5:s to use: "-MAN THIS C5R IS REALLY CRAPPY!"

/D

 

[-Fred-]

You can buy the GTS-R at the dealership, actually, just like the C5-R...

 

[boombexus]

Yep, PunkRock is correct. You can purchase the Viper at the dealership for a cool $1,000,000.

Also, since these are all race cars, oil changes do not add any horse power, so do as many oil changes as you need.

You may use the tires of your choice. T8's or whatever.

 

[pedrodaman]

Thats weird the last time i checked you could not buy it
I will need to investigate this ,if this is true i will be a very happy chappie


I just checked ,and you can't buy the team oreca Viper at the dealers ,,It must be NTSC only

 

[boombexus]

Damn, sorry to hear that Pedro. That's really a bummer.
Better for the rest of us though. J/K mate.

 

[pedrodaman]

Ah bum rub it in J.K im having some fun with the RX-7 just now..I don't think it's as good as the Viper,and i don't feel at home in this doofler ,but it will have to do

 

[made in holland]

Run the first 5 laps in my automobile:

19.999 / 36.5xx

 

[Kent]

we went and forgot the Denso Supra.

She never got into the official weekly before this, and with what I had set up in my garage it fit perfectly with this group...

729 hp 1.508 w/hp .114 w/torque

That makes for a competitor, but I know its too late to put her in there.

Oh well...

Anyway, I still haven't picked a winner, but Im testing for "the one."

I'll be back once Ive run a lap or two with my car of choice.

Otherwise any times I would submit would be so sad and off pace... well it could get ugly

back soon,
kent

 

[BigJamesGTI]

I might have a bash at this one this week sounds like fun

I quite fancy the Oreca or either one of the camaros but I think Id really fancy the Mazda - even tho I aint got it yet - damn you amateur league !!

[pedrodaman]

The answer to your question ...Those numbers represent the Power to weight ratio of each car .

hey pedro - Ive been gettin me ass kicked in the F1 series - been in every race so far and like may as well have finished last !!!
Good to see Ive been missed tho - thanks Pedro

So the power to weight ratios - they just automatically set when we equip the parts that are allowed or can they be changed ???? A bit about why they are there ??

 

[pedrodaman]

The power to weight ratios are set ,you cannot change them,
They're just there so you know you have installed the right modifications..

 

[BigJamesGTI]

Wont be able to tho cos I'll be hard at work - yawn yawn !!!!!
