Thanks to Rutter and Maz for some fun races tonight. I managed to keep myself involved for the first few laps, but my inconsistency and scary handling 512 saw me watching the other guys battling from a little further back on each lap :)

But great fun nonetheless, thanks guys đź‘Ť
 
Good battles out there tonight. Crispy, Ren, Crazytortise i thank you for the enjoyable races.

Maz, you are bloody fast.:bowdown:
Thanks for the races & i apologise for my mistakes, mainly at 130R.

:cheers:
 
Back for action...
In at 52 :)
 
Thanks to Crispy, Volcano, Rudi, Crazytortise, Wayna, Rutter, Kor borris, KOR_Blackheart, NINJA_RACER and JvM for the excellent racing tonight. This event as always stands head and shoulders above all the rest :bowdown: :gtpflag:

All the best

:nervous: looks like I missed a whole bunch of good action.. but: I just had a fantastic grid of 3 with KOR_? (sorry, can't recall, was too exiting) and JvM! Excellent bumper to bumper action :cheers:

Not at all Ren, I met those guys mostly throughout the afternoon and evening in 3 or 4 car races, not all at once. A race with 1 Kor driver and JvM is worth 20 full-grid races of nobodies any day đź‘Ť

All the best

I'm in for a few in a couple of hours or so.

Hope to see some of you out there later. There was some really good racing out there last night, and had a great battle with EERS4YEARS and BTH_RudRift earlier on, now that I've sorted my 512s 'scary' handling problems...thanks for that one guys đź‘Ť
 
Thanks for the racing yesterday guys ;)

I will join in for a few @52
 
I'm going to try and join at 22, I might not have enough time for all 10 laps though.
 
was going well behind silk and dapper untill that stupid clio punted me :rolleyes: this is a fun event đź‘Ť
 
Just jumped on for a couple in the last hour. 4 opponents in my first slot. I was green in the car, and a bit shakey. Thanks to Twisty and Mr_Volcano for waiting around a couple of times for me to join up again. Had a good close battle toward the end.
Then at :22 ended up in a ding-dong battle with GTP_US_GT (T_B and Mr_V dissappearing into the distance). Slight variations in tunes gave us each certain best sectors. I dropped it on lap9 avoiding a Clio, but was a torrid affair up until then. Close and clean. Excellent. Thankyou.
 
Well now, that was a bunch of fun!! At least up until the game froze. :crazy: Thank you GTNDC_Honeycar, mr_VOLCANO, BTH_Rudrift (I hope I didn't cut you off at the 130R??), ripping_silk, SpawnBlack, Dapper, kor_borris.
 
I just changed ”my” tune and cut of 0.4sec in my 4th free run lap :eek:

Finaly I can do consistent 2.16! I have had some problems adjusting to my DFGT, but it seems that wasnt the only problem, thanks for a great tune Timeattack đź‘Ť

Back @22
 
i had some beers already, :dunce: but will try it at 52.

That last one sucked the life out of me! phew. Trying to break the back of 4 other cars to find a way to the front. Needless to say, I never made it. I'll be back at :22 !
 
Thanks for the great racing tonight! :)
This car got even better when I found the right tune đź‘Ť Some good battles out there;) Too drunk now to drive...
 
typical !
I take a win and everyone is too drunk to see it. (which is why I won i suppose!! ahem) :sly:
Some excellent racing over the last few hours nonetheless. many thanks to all I encountered on my way up (or down!).
 
I wouldn't mind joining for a race or two in maybe 15 mins if folks are still going to be around?

All the best

There're still a few of us here. (PS. No beers.... yet :)

PPS. Oh, I see. My mistake. You were looking for *competition*! No, those guys left about an hour ago. Sorry.

Nice run, Maz! đź‘Ťđź‘Ť You know in the sailing world we call that a "horizon job" (I completely lost sight of you).

Now, if I can just find that roll of helicopter tape to stick my doors back on with...

Thanks for the vote of confidence Solarr đź‘Ť !, but seriously that win did get gifted to me.
The competition is fierce in the middle of the pack, up front its even tougher!
I was fortunate enough to be close enough to capitalize! I have to take them where can get them ! :)
 
Hi guys,

A number of you have asked me what 512 tune I've been using, and because it's been 8 months since I ran this car last here, I was sure it was the same Miami Vice tune GTP_JvM came up with for that event, but I checked against my settings and it's actually not that tune at all. So here is the updated tune, and I believe this must be from Timo (GTP_Timppaq) as that's the only other person whose tune I tried during MV vs TF and also WRS 53:

Ferrari 512 BB - Suzuka 550PP

Power: -20
Weight: 86
Tyres: S3/S3

Ride Height: -29 / -25
Spring Rate: 7 / 8
Dampers: 5 / 7
Toe: +0.06 / -0.17
Camber: 2.1 / 1.9
Brakes: 4 / 4

Turning Angle: 44
TC: Off
ABS: 2

Transmission
1st: 2.969
2nd: 2.032
3rd: 1.500
4th: 1.222
5th: 1.027
Final: 3.620


I've also attached a replay of my lap (2'15.992) for mr_VOLCANO as he PMed me saying he couldn't get it from GTDB . My heart-rate reached uncontrollable levels in Casio after seeing the T2 split, so it's possible with this tune to grab another tenth at the line. I hope you can access it from here, Richard đź‘Ť

All the best
Maz

Good grief Maz... I just say your newest lap at GTDB => :bowdown:

Tse-tse, talk about simulatanious posting!
Didn't want to ask you publicly for the setup, thanks for sharing! Your pace is just incredible!

Good there's other "normal" people participating I can have close races with :)

Looking forward to some action later, testing your setup now đź‘Ť


Oh and by the way all: Jordan was so kind to change my name to plainly "Ren". I've also got a new PSN Id "GTP_Ren". Sadly I think there is no option to transfer the PS3 friends-list, so I am sitting lonely without any buddies :(. Please send me invites if you get a chance, otherwise it will take me a looooog time to find you all again. Cheers guys! :cheers:

You can send me one or I will send you one when I go online.

Thanks for sharing your tune Maz. It's helped me get down to a 16.568 PB. Still some time off your blistering 15.9 đź‘Ť

Thanks for the replay and setup Maz! đź‘Ť Will defently try it tonight. :)
 
Attention please!

The time slot has changed to 23 and 53 as we are colliding (not literally) with a Japan based RX-7 event!

See you at 23!
