WSC VII - DrifterJoe, Snowcrash, Ford Champions!Finished

[jammy21]

I did my first runs at Monza and I did under 1'36.

Anyone got base laps for Monza? I'd guess approx 1:42 for the Shelby's.

 

[Sumo098]

Sumo098 ran out of fuel at Indianapolis, chasing him down I also spun at Indianapolis but came through to take the win in bizarre circumstances as his engine cried enough out of Arnage.

First time I log into the GTP forums for a while and I'm reminded of that miserable event. Fabulous.

Room is up if anyone wants to practice.

Long time no speak, where you been hiding?

Might pop along in half hour.

I did a 1:50 something I think...

1:50 would be a very good time already. (online and clean, I mean)

 

[Yeratel84]

I just did 1:50.9 on CAM's room... still 1 or 2 tenths to gain there (especially with a cleaner line through Curva Grande)

Looks like it's going to be close then.

And I got work to do if I'm to make a respectable showing. Best today was a 1'54.0, if memory serves...

The stops on the Madoka Hype Train are few and far between.

Furi, 9 plus 5 is 14. There's room for both me and Ryan.

I'm not doing one of these at midnight again

 

[LancerEvo7]

And also, don't murder me at Retifillo this time.

I don't want to. That was one of the most jarring accidents you can ever have in GT.

 

[Panoz]

If I remember last season, I believe Furi caused you to have a another sickening crash on the front straight early in that race.

Ferrari + grass + steel guardrail = bad juju.

 

[Panoz]

Ignore. Accidental double post.

 

[RyanRacer]

Ignore.

Too late!

Yerp that's one, after 4 wide passing @ranhammerR34 in a real WSC OMG/WTF moment.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Me: "Hey Randy, leaders coming at you with a full head of steam."

*5 seconds later*

Randy: *screams*

Craziest race ever. 4 wide between 4/5 PT's for the lead overtaking like no tomorrow. And the epic finish between me and @gtpanoz wheelbanging to the line, and @Yeratel84 and @FlyingFox in closest ever finish behind! Tell ya what though, GT-O might be faster, but I think could serve up the same!

 

[LancerEvo7]

One of my favorite races ever was at Monza when myself and @jammy21 were the only two cars in our class. We spent the entire 150km within a couple car lengths of each other and had what I'm pretty sure is the closest finish in series history.

We've gone closer , but that was pretty epic. Who won?

At least the 50 meter board into Lesmo 2 is not a big-arsed block of concrete like in GT5.

 

[Sumo098]

I've been around, just haven't been posting and as such haven't bothered to log in for some time. As a result I didn't see that post when you first made it.

 

[jammy21]

@LancerEvo7 It was fun race (I'm in Subaru).

Oh, really? I haven't crash-tested that board yet in GT6. I wonder though how long it's going to last then in the race. Better find an alternate brake-marker just in case.

Could it also be that the astro-turf on the outside of Lesmo 2 also offers a lot less grip than in GT5? Made my back-end step out in an instant when on the power.

I've changed internet provider and my connection speed is just over double what it used to be hopefully my races won't be ruined by lag anymore!

Test it first Ross see how you get on.

I have done, gone from roughly 4mbps to 8.5...

 

[Downhill Dino]

Out of curiosity to see how much everyone is practicing, how many miles are on your cars? I'm taking in account of the races that have been done thus far of course.
