What if.....B-spec names were relevant?

[Esvees]

Hmmm....if you named your guy

M. Schumacher, he'd win everything untill he automatically retires at lvl 35, then reappears at lvl 40 with vastly dminished stats. On the plus side, he'll block anyone trying to pass him by running them into a wall..

L. Hamilton, would pass everyone aggressively on the first few laps, but would wear out his tires and fuel in 4 laps...

F. Alonso (the actual name of my main B-spec guy), whenever he ran into the same model car in front, that car would automatically go out of the way as long as you're "faster" than he is...

M.Webber would win plenty untill the last 2 races in a championship when he suffers badly diminshed stats...

R. Barichello, would be pretty mediocre all round, untill you do any race on the Top Gear track, where he would own everyone...

S. Vettel would be really fast, but would take 5 minutes to overtake anyone...

N. Mansell would be super aggressive during racing, but would then screw up somewhere at the end of the race and blame YOU for giving him bad directions...


And finally....

A. Senna would beat anyone, anywhere, anytime...untill one day, tragically, he'd just be deleted....


(this is just in jest by the way, I'm nobody in particular's fanboi )

 

[SouthernOracle]

Haha, I loved it. Nice work!

 

[dark_ruffo]

K. Yamauchi: He will delay the start in order to achieve perfection. You will have to wait 5 years to see race results.

I have one named

V. Rossi: Wrong game.

 

[davidson]

M. Andretti (either): He'd destroy the competition for 90% of the race. Then, because he thought it was an endurance race and had the AI's laps covered, he'd pull off the course only to lose the race.

 

[Ecchi-BANZAII!!]

O.Gay: Keeps hitting other racers behind before corners.
X.Chen: Makes people bleed in their helmets preventing then from seeing.
M.Webber: OP has already said it.
M.Snow: Becomes invisible on snow tracks
K.Yamauchi: OP has already said it.

Those are the ones I have.

B.Lee - Beats all the other drivers up before the race.
A.Shepherd - Litters the track with sheep.
M.Knight - Is driving Knight Rider, enough said.

M.Knight: drives the 99% of the race in a Civic Si, then on the last lap changes into a Harrier and bombs the track... What a twist!

I was doing a Seasonal Event race last night and a certain C.Norris appeared. I got a bit lary when it came to pass him and made a mistake, clipping him on the exit of a corner. I later passed him, continuing the now-hopeless race just as practice to get my average lap time down.

Well, I made another (massive) mistake on a high-speed section, and as I'm getting back up to speed, out of nowhere this 300C barrels right into me, sending me flying into a barrier, which subsequently sends me into a barrel roll, flipping multiple times and finishing on my roof on the opposite side of the track.

That was Chuck getting his revenge!
Needless to say, I quit the event, hoping for some new competitors...

 

[Larkas]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Chuck Norris Fact: Chuck can use cars as conduits for his roundhouse kicks. For real.

The others are really good too, Senna's was almost poetic.

 

[defaultoasis]

I got an M. Jordan... who hasn't lost a race yet in his first 7 appearances (4h Nurburgring, Tsukuba 9h, Dream Car Series). Rather different result from the baseball trial, this time he won't return to basketball I'm pretty sure.

 

[Risco]

D.Coulthard - Would be good until a corner when he inexplicably go flying off the track.

 

[DGXR]

R. Man (Rain Man) -- Would claim to be an excellent driver, then complain how Kmart sucks.

My B-spec driver is K.Reeves (DUDE!)

P.S. Why would anyone have more than one B-spec driver? Please educate me.

I have a Bob called K. Reeves, he was grinding Tsukuba 9hour and was losing in his triumph spitfire, so he waved his hand and all the other AI's stood still while he passed them by in slow mo.

My other bob is called C.Reeves, while on the back straight on Monza an X2010 wouldn't get out of the way so he put his hands outside of the cockpit, grabbed the car and flew over the X2010

 

[Apperosio]

One of my B-Spec Bobs is V. Vega. He drives around with a bloody corpse in the backseat, waiting for the Wolf to arrive.

 

[AMCNUT]

D.Coulthard - Would be good until a corner when he inexplicably go flying off the track.

I think Bob does this already...

 

[Wiegert]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Chuck Norris Fact: Chuck can use cars as conduits for his roundhouse kicks. For real.

I'm half expecting my C.Norris to do this at some point

 

[WRECKU]

LOL great thread.

 

[Esvees]

Great additions guys!

Ok, how about these...

J. Clarkson, whenever you give him directions he will do the exact opposite and since he'll go around every corner sideways, he'll run through his tires in less than a lap. On the plus side, all other drivers will be so offended by what he says, they'll all stop racing to go try and knock him off the track...

J. May, will start going the wrong way after half a lap, even on the autumn ring-mini...

R. Hammond, will do fine in a kart, but in anything with a higer steering wheel he'll allways run off the road. He'll also inexplicable bump into J. May all the time.


B. Eccelstone, whatever you do, don't pick this name. In his first race he'll crash into the parking lot. After you quit, you'll need to pay him all the credits you ever make, or you'll never be able to enter any event ever again.


And finally, my take on...




C. Norris, don't ever try to pass him or your wheel's force feedback will hit you with the power of a roundhouse kick to the face. And heaven forbid running into him in a GTR, your DS3 pad will gouge out your eyes with the thumb sticks and then bludgeon you to death with the blunt end. Alternatively you'll spontaneously explode at the sight of so much awesomeness...

Jeb Bush was driving my Buick Special when he accidentally-on purpose hit the "invade" Iraq for a 3rd time" button


His brother George said they had concrete proof of WMD's hidden in my copy of GT and that he was confiscating it and locking me up as a home grown terrorist

 

[Madman Apex]

i have A.Senna and as someone else said he will reach lvl40 and retire a champion.
great thread though.

 

[kennedy228]

B.Bean drives around in my Mini with a chair strapped to the roof...

B.Egger borrows fuel and tyres from the other racers...

K.Mayo is a saucy little chap...

Great thread!

 

[Riverz]

I picked "M.Webber" for my second bob's name... but I think there was PS3 glitches because sometimes instead of staying on the track the car would just fly up in the air! Anyway, he won a few races, not bad for a number 2 driver...

Honestly though I do have a "D.Hopper" dressed in all red, with his angry level set to max. And I NEVER let the speed fall below 50..
