Did the Sardegna with the Porsche 962.
Off to ale Man’s with the Skyline GT500.
And Autopolis with my maxed out S2000.

And couldn’t resist to tune the Fiat Abarth and made a little boy racer out of it.
GT7 gives that little car some nice footage in city areas when you choose to view it in garage mode.
Because the suspension was on lowest, can’t help to think that it would be:
A) weird to drive that car with a helmet through any city
B) uncomfortable without any suspension over cobblestones…

And got a 3* star ticket and 5.000 cr.
 
I also got 1,000,000 Cr. for silver at LM, again I think I was pretty much at the limit of my ability there, but I was happy to be well inside the top 10% for this one!
Congrats for your silver and your Top 10% !!!

Same here, being in the Top 10% at Le Mans with these crazy cars is already a kind of acheivement (for me). I also got silver and I've very soon understood that gold was only for the Ubermensch.
 
Ran my DTM-spec E30 Evo in the Neo-Classics. Fun times, finishing 15th and 16th. Ran the Fuji event and finished top 10. Stopping early when I saw the hard rain was coming. Wish it were a “real” official DTM E30, but good stuff anyway.

10 laps at Tsukuba TT, went into silver ! Noice ! 1:10:973, optimal 1:10:552

14 laps total at the moment.

4 laps at WC TT, improved a lot my lap time by more than 1.5s but not in silver zone for now, it will be the case with a bit of training.

Record 1:59.465 (which is also optimal lap).

I really enjoy that combo, with my beloved Silvia, I love the noise of the exhaust !

8 laps total.

[Edit] 4 more laps and quickly down to 1:57.734 😁
12 laps total

DW 3* gave usual 5k...

I was kinda sleepy so I didn't want to do a grind race. Earlier I had watched @naffantaityt talking about the Silvia S14 K swap so I decided to try that out. I had 2 tunes for it one at 699 pp for LeMans and I ran it for 1 lap there to check the fuel economy and I was able to get 3 laps. Then it made out the ho which was like 1055 and 900 something ft-lbs of torque and did a time trial at LeMans. That thing is a snarling beast that will spin in 2 or 3 gear coming out of curves.I had to reduce the acceleration in the LSD and feather the gas waaay more than usual which caused to lose some time. Granted I was able to get to 249 mph going down the Mulsanne and do believe if that car had nother gear it could reach 300 easy. I want to play round with the setup and try to get rid of the snap oversteer because that car has crazy acceleration. Got a 4 * ticket but decided to wait to open it
 
I ran into a buzzsaw called Fraga at Sardegna on the GTP account. In my first attempt with the Subaru BRZ GT300, Fraga jumped out to a 20-second lead after the first set of stops, and the 26:38 I turned in try number 2, which was good enough for a 6.3-second win, wouldn't have been enough the first time through.

I'm back to the 3-star Wheels of Despair, getting it for the 4th time of 11 workouts this month, and 11th time in 21 between the two accounts. For the 3rd time on this account and the 8th time combined, it was the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr. Still, as the 1990 Mazda RX-7 returned, I bought 2 for engine purposes, widening 1.

Before heading to the Plus account, I tried the Olympic race. It took a few tries because I kept spinning out, but I eventually won by a whisker in 10:35 to get another 2,000,000 Cr.

On the Plus account, in the Alfa Romeo 4C Gr.3, I somehow managed to get by Fraga on the last left-hander on the last lap to win in 26:46. I took tires only on lap 10 because I was within striking distance of Fraga and the rear-right tire was marginal. My fast un-aided lap was in the high-1:42's, though lap 15 was a 1:41.2.

Hey, I didn't get a 3-star Wheel of Despair here. Instead, I got the 2nd-low-showing/lowest-legal 30,000 Cr. on an all-cash 4-star Wheel of Despair. That's the first time I didn't get 5,000 Cr., 10,000 Cr., or a booby parts prize this month.

I celebrated by buying the Ferrari F50 to knock my car list down to 15, which will set me back 155,750,000 Cr. at today's prices.
 
Ran my custom BPR grid on a few test runs, the XJ220 with maximum downforce fully upgraded is very competitive, keeping up with the 95 F1 GTR with a medium turbo even on twisty tracks which goes to show how good it handles.

Also took my "Modern" XJ220 LM to Sardegna for a pretty easy win.
 
Today was a good day .
Run the Olympic race and get the 2 millions , win came on the last lap and in my first attempt !!!!
I guess was too easy judging from how many mistakes i did 🤐
One lemans and after that i golden the 3 parts of Laguna with only the one lap remaining.
A 4 star from daily mileage ,the second of this week after 4x3 stars in a row..
Also i bought the new Ferrari at the LCD , perhaps its useless move but close to 99 millions i had to buy something anyway.

I used to be rich like that but there's only one way to go from there.:(

Change spare some change.:(
 
Did the Olympics.
Also got a 5* ticket and recieved a BMW M3 GT.
Did a Le Mans voor Grind.

I bought the two Sema Cars, and recieved another 5* star ticket and got 100.000 credit.
Decided to buy the Ferrari and Jag in the LCD.

Then drove the Porsche 962 at the RB-Ring three times and got second twice. Enjoyed it!
 
On the GTP account, I took the Lamborghini Huracan Gr.4 to a soggy Sarthe for some credits. The 4-star Wheel of Despair gave the low-showing 30,000 Cr.

On the Plus account, I ran the Nissan GT-R Gr.4 at Sarthe. It does understeer quite a bit, but it will do about 3 1/2 laps on fuel at a sub-4:19 pace.

The 8th 3-star Wheel of Despair of 12 this month (12th of 24 between the 2 accounts) and the 54th of 138 this year on this account gave the lowest-possible 5,000 Cr. for the 6th time on this account and 10th time overall this month. Never ****ing change your "loot" boxes, PD.
 
Yesterday I was up really late it was 3 am so no LeMans or Sardegna just a quick run at Route X in the swapped S14 & 25th anniversary Red Bull . Got 500k from a 3* ticket and 30k from a 4 ⭐🎫 from the previous night. Bought a 2nd F50 & One 11
 
Ran the Porsche 959 at Spa in the Porsche and 600pp events. The car was all squirrely at 630+ and needs a tune. But at 600pp it drives smoothly and is much more fun.

That gave me a 5* and 500k :wow: ...

Then I ran the new Olympic event - an easy 2m credits on the first try. Used the "unplanned" extra credits on the Plymouth XNR and started saving for the Ferrari 500 Mondial next which looks gorgeous:D
 
Trying to get caught up with the past few weeks.. smh.. not enough hours in the day, i'm tellin' ya.. but, just as a slight teaser, even though I have/had 75 rides in the garage, and had previously stated afterI acquired the Strassen that that would be it for purchases, I had to go out and get .. the F50.. so as i'm sure ya'll know by now, here's a little before and after, with my own spin of course..

F50.jpg


F50-02.jpg



.. gotta run for now, groceries & a couple minor weekend stuff.. but of course, i'll also get in some laps here and there (LoL).. just been awhile since i've been here at the forum & wanted to check in with a no i'm not bored, yes i'm still blistering everything in sight, I haven't passed away.. trust, i'll be back with more goodies as the day progresses.. so until then, race hard!.. HAPPY SUNDAY!

Yesterday was a very lazy day .
One lemans to take the ticket and then i open all week's tickets which gave me the huge amount of 65k total !!!! .
At noon i did some races with Ferrari and Porsche cars trying to achieve the CRB but didn't manage to get it every time and i don't know why is the truth.
Also didn't buy any car and i realised that i have an F40 ( perhaps from an older wheel ) so i don't have to buy it when its show up .
That's all , a new week starts and i wish a cool week to everyone whatever you do .
 
1. Practiced 10 laps at Spa for the Manufacturer Series (new PB 2:30.226).

2. DW 4-star ticket rewarded me with the F136F-458 engine (Cr. 241,500).

3. Made some attempts at the Expert Drifting mission in the BRZ (new PB 4558 pts. Good for silver, while 5300 pts are required for gold. Video below).



This is on the Logitech G PRO wheel. I'll also post the video from my gold from the Viper drift mission that I did a while back but just got around to uploading the video.

I had a fun but almost very frustrating 30 min race at Le Mans (WTC 700)...

It rained half way through, but not hard enough for IMs, so I refuelled and kept my RH tyres on...

Then, from the lead of the race, it started to rain more heavily, and by the end of the lap it was slippery as anything - I ran a bit wide into the Porsche curves but rescued it without too much trouble, but was awarded a ridiculous 7.0 s penalty for 'Ignoring Track Limits'... I still managed a win, but the penalty was very harsh, not least as I clearly lost time, even before the penalty.

--

I did another race, this time with RS tyres and reduced power, and what a comedy of errors...

I got whacked off the track by Haywood, only for him to immediately smack into me again and pretty much put me back on track. I pitted for W tyres even though it hadn't started to rain yet, and lost 70s to the leaders. It then rained and I gained most of the lost time back before I spun it, even though I had W tyres on. Portilla took the lead, only to lose it on Hunaudieres and I had no chance to avoid him, and smashed full force into him. The rain then stopped and I changed back to RS and immediately spun it coming out of a wet pit lane. The AI then caught me before the start of the last lap, but luckily for me he pitted and I won the race.

And to add a cherry on top, my PS4 crashed as I tried to save the clip of the ridiculous incident with Haywood... :(

Here's my collision with Portilla:



... but if I thought I was having a bad lap, wait till you see his :lol:



--

Oh, and a 4* ticket gave me an exhaust worth 8,000 Cr... :irked:

8 laps at WC TT, a slight improvement of my best lap, still a long way to gold.

DW 4* gave 30k, back to usual business
 
Today I bought the 8C 2900B Lungo Berlinetta 1937 which means I only need 2 more 20M cars bad news I only have 40M and I still need 6 more cars from the LCD to have one of each car.

Wish I could grind like before.:(
 
We still gotta run at least 1 @Chikane_GTR .. BUT, in the meantime.. 1st run of the day= the following..

Fired up my Enzo (what else) @ TM (where else) & of course at the HCP (shocker).. LoL!

So on that note, that got me to thinking of a definition..

Blistering:

very fast; capable of quick response and great speed
“a blistering pace”

that right there pretty much explains my Italia' garage, especially my BB/Enzo.. the response of that car is just plain ridiculous.. I mean overall speed, quickness, cornering, braking, it's just not fair for a road car to have those kind of capabilities.. EVERY TIME I take that car out it just amazes me.. I've gotta get one IRL.. LoL!.. we'll see.. in the meantime..

.. blew the paint off that field, without even trying..

PS4/DS..

@Chikane_GTR : just got your message, DEFINETLY!!!!

Bought the 20M credit Alfa. I don't think I'll ever drive it but that just leaves 3 more 20M credits cars and the Ford Roadster left for me to buy at the LCD. I still have about 40 cars left to buy from Brand Central but those aren't going anywhere, so all my auto grinding credits are working towards saving up another 40-60M credits to buy these last 3 expensive cars.
 
I took yesterday off, but the wallet waits for nobody. On the GTP account, I got the first of the three 20,000,000-Cr. cars I didn't already have on that account, but it wasn't the one I was expecting.

To get some of that cash back, I took the Audi R8 Evo to Sardegna for a very-easy win, mostly because Fraga had trouble with traffic early and gave up. The no-cash 4-star marathon roulette gave a Bore Up S for the baby AMG.

On the Plus account, I sent the McLaren 650S GT3 to Sardegna. It isn't as fast as some of the other Gr.3 cars, only getting into the 1:42s at the end of the 26:56 race, but it will do 6 laps (just) on fuel and 15 laps on tires. Better, while Fraga was the rabbit, he wasn't as quick as he could have been, so it was a win.

Surprisingly, I got my first 5-star ticket of the month (on either account, though I started the month with a 6-star on the GTP account). Unfortunately, it was a Wheel of Despair, puking out a Pagani invitation.
