I took part in that, that guy is an alien!

To Mr Casual saturday only Ayrton Senna: why don't you ask your "friend with the PS3 you use" to upload the replay or does he not know how to use PS3/isn't at home either till saturday/made up?

So did I, finished third behind the two aliens and exactly 1.5 seconds off Dan. I think I could close that down to a few tenths if I tried really hard and spent quite a bit of time on it.


I have not done many online races, but have found people to be surprisingly quick at certain combos. There must be quite a number of people who are super fast that many people don't know.

Excluding rosckolove, I've been around for many years and while you are right in saying there are always pleasant surprises, he is not one. It's a shame his type pops up here and there.
 
@TJC we have a 1 on 1 coming up, I'm down to a 6:15 with the specs we agreed on, any insight on your lap time so i can gauge how this will go? :)

Lets make sure we're on the same page here with specs ...

Premium Japanese GT500 car from the dealership . No standard GT or Nomad GTs .

All tuning allowed to 502 bhp .
Race Medium .

Nords with lounge physics .
Real grip / Tyre wear off
All aids disabled except ABS .

So which car did you use to do the 6.15 sec time you set ?

I'm opting for the Motul Autech GTR 08 .

Initial first try was a 6.26 sec for me , this was on the DS3 however . With the wheel I will go faster due to more control over the rear . Fastest I think this car will go , would be around 6.20 secs , in the hands of a very fast driver .

Are you 10 seconds per lap faster than me , under stable regulations ?

I think not . Calling BS on your time .

You're either full of it or you've hacked the game buddy .

Don't buy your time for a second and I don't race liars or cheats . Put up evidence asap to back up your claims or you're being reported 👍

Why use the motul?

Its slightly heavier than others, Yellowhat GT-R or Arta/Raybrigg NSX i'd go with!

Will give him benefit of doubt for now as times seem plausible even though I don't know much about Nurburgring lap times with Racing tyres in GT5. rosckolove has said he will be offering proof when he can, if he can't then all means disregard his claims (I know you are already doing that ;)). Otherwise seems like a lot of effort to go to just to lie and ruin reputation on here.

No reason other than i'm familiar with it Phil :lol:

No way he's setting a 6.15 in anything other than a Nomad in my opinion 👍
 
wait, when did he find time to make yet another silly claim? :lol:

full tune gtr, r3, srf, and a bit of lying ;)

I was thinking along the same lines yup 👍

He's no alien ...

I'll bet my DFGT on it Phil ;)

We must have missed a saturday when he plays on a ps3 that he doesn't own on a 3 person shared account!

Thing is, i can just about see the GT500 time is possible but the CSL time is just pie in the sky!

I took part in a few of those challenges, did alright in the first two I participated in, 7th and 5th overall. But GTP_DHolland's time on Monaco made me take up woodworking & clarinet lessons. Clearly I am wasting my time on GT5 and my efforts up to that point were futile. It's so defeating when someone decimates your best time by over four seconds.

On topic? I believe the wheel has an advantage when it comes to managing tire degradation. In my opinion, just more control.
 
^ Someone (misunderstood) got a 1.41.xxx beating Dan by quite a bit on that TT!!!

Sorry, i got it wrong, that time is with the standard version.

The top time is 6.30 by the new HSV
after that is the Yellowhat GT-R at 6.36!
 
I ran the 6:15 lap about a week ago, probably the day we agreed on a spec to run the cars at, I wanted to practice because you seemed pretty confident. Now I realize this won't be very hard, seeing as I ran that lap within the first half hour of practice, And you already think its impossible.

I was using the Calsonic GT-R, Its at 610pp (i think), 502hp, Racing mediums. People online run below 6:20's with 600pp STREET cars, Its common really. I don't understand the fuss you guys are making. Just go run some laps and see its all possible. Really you guys should be a little more respectful though. You already know i can't get on until saturday, why make stupid comments and threats non stop? Report me for what? Being faster than you TJC? Do you ever go online? I assume you probably get your ass handed to you quite a bit. Just because someone isn't on GTP doesn't mean they aren't capable of being fast. You guys are being ridiculous. Keep the stupid comments to a minumum until the time comes. I know its hard on your pride but you can manage. Its just a video game.

May not get to reply, power keeps going out. Stupid hurricane <-- you can check the weather channel for validity on that.

@phil I thought about doing that, but i don't want to risk him deleting it by accident or anything like that, besides its not his problem. Even so, you guys are making such a big deal out of something so small, it will be very rewarding when it comes down to it. So I'll just let you guys continue to be children, and get all wound up. The end outcome will be the same, no matter how much you attack me.

The outcome will be the same indeed, explain to me again what it is that is going to happen on Saturday? I'm a forgetful child and all that.
 
Anybody else want to have a crack at that CSL time before Saturday?

You're completely full of it son .

Report you for making claims on here that you cannot backup . Glad you think you will own me , gonna laugh so hard on Saturday when you're owned ...

And then on Sunday . :sly:

You seem to think you're clever , although your arrogant petulant posting and consistent excuse ridden back tracking suggests otherwise.

You can see in my sig , lying nooby , that I have indeed raced online . Yet another one of your untrue claims .

I wonder if your next excuse will be that your power dissapears by the weekend ... along with your timeshare PS3 :lol:

I won't even bring a GT500 to beat you ...

I'll take the Schwimmenwagon :lol:

I might give it a go tonight if my internet is back on. If you are at a 6'3x I will be happy with anything in the (high) 40s :dopey:

Oh, and TJ, if rosckolove's location is correct, there is every chance he will be without power on the weekend. Check the news.
 
A good chance the power is out sure, but as hard as it seems for him to get anywhere near the ps3 perhaps it's located several miles inland? lol

Joking aside, how hard would it be for the owner to grab a replay and email it? Something, I know if I was under fire I'd have done something by now.(someone else already said this I think) to easy.
 
Why should I put a burden on someone else because little children from a video game forum can't hold their pants on? (I don't trust him to do it right anyway) You really think reporting me for making completely legitimate claims, soon to be proven will do anything? Please TJC, explain to me exactly how you have proven my claims to be fasle, before a video was loaded or race was done. Just imagine for a second that your wrong, and I blow you away (what you think doesn't matter, you have no way of knowing) how will you act then? You have to realize its stupid for any assumptions to be held so highly, you have to wait till saturday, just like I do. You think I don't want to get this over with and hear your petty excuses afterwards? Ofcourse i do, But some people have things they need to do. When this is all said and done, I'm not going to catch any flak for how I acted, You will. Think about it..

So once again children, grow up a bit and just hold your immature tongues until race day. It really isn't that hard. No one is acting the way arora phil and TJC are. Everyone else has doubts, but they aren't trolling forums to defend their pride and being little butthurt boys.

I made a claim and have to wait to prove it because of stated circumstances, its very, very simple. You guys aren't making this forum look good.

Constant excuse is right, its the same one again, and again. I'm not making up new ones. Oh and 7th place... Your EPIC....

Can you answer in a way this child can comprehend please?

You have to admit from an outsider point of view your claims are pretty hard to believe.
 
Now clearly we have 3 possible explanations here.

1) Your time was set with different rules and regulations than mine, and thus my whole reference point is out of whack.

2) You are making it up

3) You just happen to be one of the most naturally gifted drivers in the world at GT5 and can lay down times on your mates PS3 on a random weekend fast enough to challenge the top drivers. (or you are an existing racer with a second account)

As for your option 3 (the most accurate one) I only run these times because i dedicate all of my GT5 Experience to this kind of stuff, I barely know how to tune a car for a flat track, see what i'm getting at?
I get the whole second account thing a lot actually. People always think I'm someoned else.

There we have it folks. I've seen some fast guys come out of nowhere in my time but none that don't even own a PS3 and can't drive any other track but nurb.

You keep claiming that "everyone online" is running 6'30's or better and that its no big deal. Why don't you get one of your mates to come and post his replay and I can race them too? Or are they not able to show up until Saturday too?

The reason you are receiving so much slack is not because you have claimed a fast time but because you have claimed a time that puts you faster than one of the worlds best GT drivers since he first surfaced in 2004 who has won more time trials than you can poke a stick at and appeared at multiple international events in Gran Turismo racing.

How about you see if you can call some backup from your online mates?
