there is something reaaaaally unnatural the way E30 M3 handles on today's BB Raceway with SS ....

 

[Robben]

I'm not, it's just that I've been playing racing games for 20 years.

Since you were 3?

Good 👍

What would you do though, get everyone to sit and watch my laps then give tips?

Yeah I grew up with PC's as my dad has a lot to do with them at work Midtown Madness was my jam

@Alpha Cipher and I actually did that with @Crazybutt198 a while ago

 

[Crazy Taylor]

U R AN ALIEN



May well do

Good stuff learning off the astros.

classic.

When you say a while, do you mean about 8 days ago?

Jokes aside, I would actually find that really helpful... I watch the top 10 replays and think I am doing what they do, but clearly I'm not

Yeah you gotta get rid of any competition by giving advices like "never brake" or "don't steer"

Race A and B anyone?

I’m off fishing this weekend so this is that last chance I’ll have to play this week, hope it’s something decent

 

[kevlar_hybrid]

Red Bull car at Monza today? Seriously, I thought I'd, you know, try and play the game 'n all.
I went in S-A, came out S-B after an utter **** show. Put in a race with everything down to D-C drivers.
First corner, yeah, first four laps even, yeah. Ram fest after ram fest. And because "everyone is to blame when others ram you" I'm now A-B.

So ok, strike that from the list *AGAIN*. Never again. Add it to Interlagos, Mount Panorama, Every Tokyo track etc etc

You don't get a chance. You try the race, if you quit once you see who's in there you get punished, if you race you get punished, the ONLY way to avoid being punished is to not race at all. Fantastic.

Fuming btw.

BB Raceway is where I have had most recent success. Group 3 Nurb GP is always a good track for me.

I'm out tonight

Monza went on my list of "never again" tracks the day it came out. Did one race and that was that.

 

[TheNorfolkDad]

Well-documented over the past week or so on here...

I keep moaning about it...

 

[Robben]

I keep moaning about it...

Say wha?

 

[Robben]

Double post as completely unrelated to above.

Further to above recent history, look at my Q positions before. Apart from a few odd ones, most single digits...

 

[kevlar_hybrid]

Sure, but in an S-A S-S lobby it's really quite ok these days. But I was put in a race with very low level drivers, many of whom hadn't even posted a qualifying time. I have no control over that as player and what are my options in a "we're all to blame" penalty system for the first four laps.
Unbelievable.

I'd rather have a three car race with the one S-S and one A-S guy in there, that would seem fairer (they got wrecked too both DR and SR)

 

[TheNorfolkDad]

Sounded like "well documented on here" is a nice way of saying "I keep moaning about it"

 

[Invisigoth]

Me:
CR 3m
Car(s) bought 152

You actually spent credits for 152 cars? I've deleted more cars than that! You do know there is that game called Gran Turismo Sport that has stuff that isn't Sport mode yeh?

Yeah you gotta get rid of any competition by giving advices like "never brake" or "don't steer"

Hey! That's my style of racing! 👍

 

[McLarensFinest]

PB is 2:02

Just can't get a whole lap right there.

Edit: my bad, 2:01.713. Still only good enough for a last place start so it's academic really

How did you find out your overall rank and split times?

Thanks!

Looks like I'm off GTS until next week then. Can't seem to get to grips with the Nurburgring and I don't fancy racing on an oval

Red Bull or Red Bull Junior??

www.jasonguernsey.net/gts

Y'all reading all the posts in a thread? Getting tired of quoting a post from the same page again to answer the exact same question

Red Bull or Red Bull Junior??

As @Sofia Speed said it's the non-Jr.

 

[andreotibg]

Sorry... and thanks again.

 

[dzumaalcapone]

As @Sofia Speed said it's the non-Jr.

Maybe it should be called Red Bull Senior from now on

 

[ststav01]

so far -2K DR on BB Raceway with the M3 most of the guys are half a second behind but decide to start overtaking on the first corner with a graceful divebomb ..

 

[TamasToth]

in an S-A S-S lobby it's really quite ok these days

I have to disagree. Yesterday, Suzuka, my 2nd race was with all S/S-A/S opponents. Noone had a clean move against the others. Even the lamest waving and blocking at the back straight. Mediocre skills with bad sportsmanship performed - S/S in GTS rating. (All this flavoured with a spinned but unghosted car in hairpin. 10s of well deserved penalty.)

 

[Crazy Taylor]

Don't know why its not just called red bull standard because thats what it is.

 

[Robben]

yeah...

Yeah I just like to have the variety in my garage. And, yeah... I have also deleted more cars than that as I delete all duplicates.

You do know there is that game called Gran Turismo Sport that has stuff that isn't Sport mode yeh?

Like GT League?
