Tired of complaints on indy??
One lane is faster than the other??
No room to stop??
30 meters short of a real 1/4 drag stip.

When u get out the pits all you have to do is make a u-turn and head to the end of the straight away. Once you pass the last over head signs make a u-turn and line up below the banner, line up on the dark shadow.....

After a couple of complaints i went to buy the C4 wich has a meter gauge on the dash and i measured everything again it turns out to be that the Indy stip is abot 30 meters to short.
When measuring the fuji track, from the white line in the pic to the checkered lines is 38 meters to long.
I also did a measuring between shadow to shadow and the distance happens to be 14 meters over the
1/4th distance..

The dark shadow below the advan posters will be the starting line

The dark shadow below the sega banner will be the finish line.

But remember this is 14 meters longer than a 1/4 mile.


When u return to the starting line please stay to your left as there is a return lane to avoid any crashing...

Make the best tunes win. No excuses on lanes any more.

Hmm... this seems quite convenient - and possibly superior to Indy. I will check it out and make a room to see if people join it; and how it runs.

Cheers.
 
we have to get the word out first. my team and i have been running this track for a while now. way better than indy............
 
Pretty sure mafia_boy measured after the shadow and 5 poles after is the 1/4.
 
i tunnel drag but will check this out, especially with the new settings sheet, i can have different tunes on the same car
 
Very interesting... I will have to look in on this :)
 
On release we was using Monza. U turn out the puts. Checkered to checkered I am thinking was really close to a 1/4 mile. Track hooks good too.

Fuji def have plenty room to shut down.

Handy link with straight lengths listed. Like to see a flying mile thrown together. La Sarthe to bumpy to do it right.

I use my Mach 1 as my "1/4 mile measurer", it tops out at the 1/4 so I know where the finish line is. On Fuji, my rev limiter kicks in the moment I cross the line.
 
Actually the enzo and the acr will chase the gtr down and beat it in most cases. A 100% tuned enzo acr and gtr the acr and enzo will get the gtr by almost a car.

I went to indy last night and hit 163mph in my enzo, don't know if that's good enough but. And 155 in my le mans.

100 feet short of a real 1/4 drag stip.

Take the MP4 and measure indy and fuji the ending result will be indy is a little shorter than a 1/4 strip. Fuji on the other hand is exactly the length of a 1/4 mile and the length of a 1/2 mile and even 1000 meters
How? I measured it with my C4 and it's clearly too long. For your information, shadow to shadow is closer to be a 1/4 mile.

Explain please!
