I've been following and actually have no idea. I'd really like to know and get it over with already so I can start practicing.

EDIT: Didn't realize it was a TOPP.

We have the Supra at Nurburgring GP/F just to remind everyone, as well as the G37 now going to Brands Hatch Indy 80's. Let's get some lap times for the G37 :)

So, are you going to keep the rest of us in the dark or what? Don't make me start a vote to make your choice for you.:D

DesertPenguin. Since you edited your vote into your post, I'll let it stand. Read some instructions next time.

Yeah, sorry about the delay, I was waiting for voting to subside last night and sort of fell asleep then didn't think about it until lunch at work today.

(Also sorry about double post, but I wanted to prize post to be separate)
 
I'm actually quite partial to all choices this week. I love the race cars so the Supra is still a great race for me. The G37 is a fun car so I like seeing where we can take it. The SRT Tomahawk is interesting but no one will probably get the most out of it since it has insane grip levels.

Also, it has a boost you can always use. That's the one annoying thing.

Well its downforce reduction (DRS) not boost. Which means you need to optimize when to do it with corners instead of just holding it constantly if it really were boost.
 
Ah, I will read the car info to see what this thing has. I do like the fact that they let you paint the car and wheels. We can still look like ourselves. Now I have to map the nitro button to something I can easily use while having the wheel turned so I can use it coming out of turns.

Wait! This is BS you can't put a number on it AND the horn doesn't work! :lol:

And they're UP!

(I remembered to use CAPs this time @MajorBlixem)

NEW Time Trials for the two new combos are available NOW, for a limited time...get your time in now, before they are gone FOREVER.

(Yes, I am fluent in infomercial)

But wait!! What do I get if I complete the time trials withing the next 30 minutes?
 
For Mid Division Times:

Brands Hatch Indy:
Did about 12 minutes practice and then 12 minute time trial
Mid-Division should easily be able to consistently be in the 47s range with a small amount of practice. Many should be able to hit in the 46s range with practice (or skill).
My PB after about 30 min was 46.8 s, with room to improve

After 12 minutes on the TimeTrial Event:
Tomahawk S Mid-Field
53.8 seconds. I am not the best at these super-intense machines, and that's not much practice.

A great way to practice is to do the time trial events...hint, hint...and it helps us see what times people are posting across divisions for the number of laps determination.

We ran the Tomahawk a bit yesterday and 50s are very much possible.

Thank you, @Jaguara for getting the TTs back in order. Great job, mate.
 
Does anybody have the Dealer PP and the after oil PP and HP handy for that slippery fast Dodge Tomahawk? Forgort to take notes last night. That's all I need to finalize the settings table

I have seen a 49.6xx from a D1 guy last night, but this car lose a lot of time in corners if you don't take it well. I saw a D4 guy running 51's. So, I'm gonna go with a 52sec lap for my calculations
 
It's supposed to be raining all weekend in Austin. Despite the awful sounding V-6's and Mclarens poor performance, I'm pretty mad at myself for passing on this years' race. Grrr.

Rain races are IMO the best show in Motorsport.

Since you do karting as a hobby, you should try it at your local track. In France, we drive in the rain in slicks (we can't use rain tyres till we enter Rotax Senior). We couldn't see further than 3 meters in my last race and 4 of the fastest in the dry skid out (underestimating the rain) on the formation lap. Freaking formation lap, that's how bad it was.

After oil: 1046 HP, 747PP, 921kg - not sure of original PP

It was slightly slick for one race recently and it was a ton of fun for about 3 laps until it dried. I enjoyed it immensely. But that was nowhere even close to "wet" conditions. I know they mandate rain tires for situations like that around here.
