I learned an expensive lesson today, I should take need to what I tell others and it is basically "with great power therefore is much responsibility" Without control the horsepower is useless.
I had taken my Maserati

and added a lot of power to it and finding out the hard way that no amount of suspension tuning could tame the unstable mess I made.
So I went to the parts place and bought a new motor to restore the factory specs and now with careful adjustments to suspension and small increase in HP I now have a great driving car.
 
Last night I decided to give my Enzo's a rest, peeked in the garage & thought hmmmm what would be fun to drive ??.. hence, although a VGT, I almost forgot that I had it.. very very fast, and cornering is ridiculous.. gotta admit, for sitting around collecting dust it is one bad mf'er.. So below is a replay of race #1 of a trifecta at TM/HCP that wasn't even fair.. blew the field to pieces in all 3 races.. smh..



..the Tributo is up next!

Nothing, I am watching the Rolex 24 at Daytona
I spent a few days this week racing a BMW M4 at Daytona to enhance the race on TV. It really helps in identifying the camera angles and understanding racing lines (and when they aren’t in a racing line 😵‍💫). I got up at 2:00 AM PST to finish out the race. My favorite part is the night transition into sunrise. Pretty competitive between Penske Porsche and BMW
 
Today I did the Historic Race Masters race at Spa, which is part of the currently weekly challenge set. It was double action for my classic Porsche cars. First I did it with a 911 turbo '81 (stock but with sport hard tyres) and then next I used a Carrera '73 (stock with comfort tyres).

The daily marathon ticket gave me a 6 stars ticket and its despicable wheel dropped a Mitsubishi VGT. Sold it right away.

Then I spent some time at Nurburgring with a Civic eg '93 trying to tune its suspension and LSD. Got a lap around the 8 minutes mark.

Fun day driving cool cars at cool tracks.

Edit: later today I had another gaming session and recorded a lap around the ring with my Civic. There's still room for improvement for sure, but quite happy with it. VTEC is life. 😎

Hoping to do some laps of the current online time trial featuring Gr.3 @ the Daytona Road Course this evening, seeing how I haven't tried that one yet. Not to mention that I'm hoping that this upcoming week's Daily Race A is a bit more interesting to me.

I boot up GT7 today because I was so upset with Black Ops 6's campaign and wanted to forget. Like... why zombies??? Once the Nuketown mannequins started spawning in I know I was in for some hot garbage.

First went through all of the weekly challenges as lazily as I could.

Bought a duplicate HiAce and did a few laps around Tokyo Expressway Central.

Participated in some gasp GT Cup Gr.3 races at Deep Forest and RBR, the latter being surprisingly boring. The C7 is now 8 miles behind the SLS AMG for most driven car in the category.

Sold my S Barker Tourer and some other cars to scrounge up some money for the XJ13. Got the final 'big' trophy, then promptly sold all 3 legendary cars. Repurchased both Pagani models in the dealership.

Purchased the Jaguar D-type and Audi R18 TDI. Completed the final scapes-related trophies and now have the platinum. :)
