​

Touge One Stop Shop (TOSS) runs LEGEND OF THE STREETS (LotS) which is a 1v1 Touge Ladder based on Initial D. This challenge is to call forth tuners and drivers who can produce a car with the same restrictions in LotS to defeat The 2 Legends of the Street. All tuners will have to register and publish their vehicle specs do a time attack on the custom Toscana (Tarmac) track called Songai Shinro. The winner of the challenge have the option to go into an online tournament against the 2 LotS.

The BROWN HORNET
From LotS, there exists a Subaru WRX called "The Brown Hornet" which stood undefeated in all the 1v1 battles he had in the Pre-Season (13 races). In Season 1 has an impressive 14 wins out of 16 races. The Brown Hornet has also clocked the best time for one of the custom tracks and no one is able to beat that time.​


Brown Hornet's Ushimine Run​


The WHITE GODZILLA
The White Godzilla appeared in Season 1 and went berserk, challenging every opponent he can find. In the Season 1 Finals, he went against The Brown Hornet and won him, thus taking the title of Legend of the Streets. The White Godzilla has 29 wins out of 32 races in Season 1.

Cat and Mouse racing is done this way.

It is a rolling start with 2 drivers. Driver A (Leader) will be in front of Driver B (Chaser), cruising into the starting point, usually after a hairpin turn or corner.

The race commences after that point. The end point will be the finish line.

For the Leader to win, he must increase the gap between him and the chaser by 3 seconds by the time they reach the finish line.

For the Chaser to win, he must overtake the Leader and maintain his position until the finish line.

If the Leader cannot increase the gap more than 3 seconds, the race will continue into round 2. In round 2, Driver A and Driver B will swap positions and the race will start again.

For the Cat and Mouse Sudden Death mode, the race will go on until a winner is decided.
 
I would like to tune for this shootout. That said in the unlikely event that I had one of the top tuner times you'll need to select another tuner for your online races as my connection with PSN is problematic to say the least.

@CSLACR I believe cat and mouse refers to the fact that one car starts with a slight lead and then a second car gives chase trying to catch and pass it. :)
Proper answer already given.:D

So it's basically NFS's Canyon Duel? Those were great, sounds neat.
 
Other than the limit of Sports Hard tires and how much ballast and power limiter may be applied there is no limits for tuning? so I can use stage 3 weight reduction and stage 3 engine tuning if I so desire?

Ballast is 5% of the car weight.If you do a stage 3 weight reduction , you can add 5% of the new less weight of the car.

Power limiter is 95-100%.


The problem is now, if you do a fully weight reduction , the car isn´t street legal anymore but is allowed :confused:

You can add a FC-Suspension but NOT a FC-Transmission. :confused:


btw the TCS and ASM shoudn´t be allowed ;)

Yes, you can do Stage 3 weight reduction and Stage 3 tuning. It will give more ways to have a weight/power combination to reach the 500PP

The concept is using a car which can be registered on the road. Weight reduction will make your car illegal, but if you don't get caught by the cops, you're car is still 'registered' as a legal car.

The Fully Customizable Suspensions gives a wider range of sping rates which can be actually installed on a road car. Actually, if there's enough fuss, I will allow FC-Transmission. The 2 LotS players are ready to give a handicap as their cars are using either Stock/5-Speed close-ratio/6-Speed close-ratio.

Why No FC-Tranmission is due to existing rules in the league.

Road cars can have both Traction Control (TCS) and Stability Control (ASM). It will be up to the tuners whether or not to use them or not.

No FC tranny! It ruins the realism.
I've seen a lot of tricked out cars, but that'll be the day, when people drive straight-cut fully adjustable racing gears around town.

The tuner has the same handicap , because there´s only these 3 options and the 2 LotS players/drivers possibly take the best option wether it´s the stock , 5 speed or 6 speed tranny.

I´m sure they won´t take the worst option.

Its a lot of fun and i recommend giving it as shot guys.
I use the close ratio 6 speed box and if someone chooses to use the illegal FC box they will soon be found out. I accidentally did this in my 1st race and my opponent new before we had reached the 1st corner.

One more thing the Timber didnt mention is that if someone builds a car thats unbeatable like and FSI audi or MBW M3 or other super cars then that car might be disqualified. We cant really have people turning up in supercars as everyone will soon be racing them.
 
Thanks for the clarification to the rules.
As for a car remaining street legal with weight reduction and various sorts of performance enhancements there is more than one way to skin a cat as the saying goes. You would be amazed how much weight you can save taking out non essential parts on a car that have no effect on its legality. Start with seats most states have laws regarding the specifications for passenger seats but if you remove all seats except the drivers the car is still legal to license and drive, you just can't legally carry any passengers. Your not required by law to have a heater or air conditioning, stereo systems are not required. Most sound insulation is there for passenger comfort, not legal reasons. Then I can also replace many parts with lightweight parts that still meet specifications for legal street vehicles. When I get finished I may have a car that is uncomfortable to drive but it is still a legal car that can be driven on public roads. Look at a few issues of magazines like Hot Rod Magazine, Rod and Custom Magazine, etc. and you'll see plenty of examples of insane things people do to cars that are still legally registered to drive on the road. Pro Street ring a bell for anyone? 10 inch tubbed rear ends with 1500hp blown engines. Totally impractical for actually driving on the road, complete money sinks and only marginal performers on the drag strip but people keep building them because they look cool.:odd:
And people call me crazy.:crazy:
 
I'll throw my lot in as a Tuner, I've just had a look at the allowed 'Tuner Cars' and spotted an old and very dear friend...

Maybe you need to start making a list of cars not allowed.
Currently I'm torn between an update to my "Pocket Monster" Daihatsu Cuore TR-XX in full build mode (494PP with no Aero) and looking for a 4wd sleeper such as an Audi S4 or if allowed an HPA R32 Golf.
 
I dont think ive ever read the eligible car list before lol. And to my surprise there is a few id like to tune and race for the next season.

Currently im using the Amuse S2000 R1. Last season i used the DC5 and before that i used the Brown Hornet. Ill be pulling the covers off and using the brown hornet for this shootout though. lol :P

Not really as that would take sooo long to do. But there are the obvious 1s that cant be used. When we come acroos some cars with a question mark over them, then we will deal with it then. But so far everyone has been really good and not brought a supercar to the party.

You´re funny.Since when is a 480 PP BMW a Supercar?

Define Supercar.

I thought every Road Car is eligible (with some exceptions ) that doesn´t exceed 500 PP by far.



raVer
 
TimberW you need to update your list in the link from the OP.

Also confused by some of the cars placement on that list.

Eligible:
Nismo Fairlady Z S-tune concept by GRANTURISMO (Z33)
Nismo GT-R LM Road Going Version '95

Not sure how those two are eligible

Not Eligible:
TRIAL CELICA SS-II (ZZT231) '03

Why not this one?

Just curious.:D will start my testing after work today.👍👍

Ok, I know it's not a super car. But some bmw's and audi's pp are out. As in these cars can punch well above their weight. Everyone knows this.
But there's always 1. Lol

That's why you need a list of non eligible cars.
Would hate to spend time tuning a killer Audi S4 only to be told sorry its to good so we aren't allowing it.
 
The only BMW you can´t get to 500 PP (without massive power limiting/weight adding) is the M5.Same goes with the Audi R8´s.

Maybe they're scared :scared: I'll drop an 1800kg Audi Pikes Peak with 500+HP on them.:D:crazy:
 
Yes your right we do need a list of non eligible cars. But we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

I'm not sure what the pp is on a stock R8 and the m3 csl but from I've seen when racing 500-550 pp online these cars are always the cars to beat. When they are being used. There are just some cars in gt5 that are in a league of there own.

If you feel you need cars like this then you probably need it.
I read in another thread that you have heaps of quality tunes. And I believe it too. For someone to have so many tunes then I agree that you must know what your doing.

The M3 GTR has 492 PP stock.The CSL has around 480.

The R8´s are far over 500.

I would say , a car with max 515 PP can be detuned/weight added to 500.(depends on the weight of the car)



raVer
 
Ok thanks for sharing that. But do you agree about what I'm saying abouts these cars?

Personally I'd like to have a gentlemans agreement about using these cars. I'm not scared if that's what your thinking lol. Far from it. Rather have a fair playing field that's all.

OSE and I are actually excited to race against some top notch tuners. And look forward to the battles.
