Exeter GT Tuning (Updated with new seasonal setups)

[Badger66]

Thanks for the link Badger. The Caterham is an absolute giant killer & we need a few more of the latest variations (R500) in the game.

Your'e Welcome Pete....I'm So glad i found this car and tune...it really drove well...plus i wanted to use something different than the norm on here and no one seems to be using this car at all....its a little gem and i know i will be using this on Seasonals to come..

That would be so cool if they brought the R500 into the game..👍

The Caterham R500 have promising performance data so let's hope PD will carry out this wonderful lightweight Racer

This looks Wicked Guys......i want one..👍👍

The R500 wasn't available here in Australia as the chassis didn't comply with our rules & regulations but we've just had the R485 go on sale which is mechanically identical except that it comes on the larger SV chassis.

That's a Shame Pete....Have you seen any of the R485's Running around yet...that would be cool to see..

 

[Badger66]

It's dramas like this that make me think I'm not missing much by not being online.
Don't get me wrong, it sounds like you guys have a laugh a second when it's all working 100% but even being offline I'm having problems.
When I try & start my PS3 with GT6 in, it sometimes takes several resets in order for the game to load. I thought my PS3 might be trying to retire but it doesn't have a problem with other games or DVDs so it's obviously ANOTHER GT6 bug
It's wearing my patience with the whole PD/GT6 thing very thin.

This doesn't sound good Pete...is it because you need an update....do you think mate??

 

[Badger66]

Hey Guys @Badger66 and @LordJCS

Do you remember the issue at the last online race were Badger can't see me and i can't see him ? Seems like other people have the same problem https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/i-cant-see-all-the-drivers-on-the-track-help.316318/

BTW where can i delete the cache ?

I've just left a message at the Thread you gave us the link to and it looks like no one really knows what to do....so lets hope enough people complain about this and PD Sorts it out.

I've just deleted Cache Chris.....If you go to Options Menu and open Network....it says Clear System Cache...its the top one of the 2 there and just click on yes....it only clears temporary data on your Hard disk drive....hope that helps mate...

That's a Shame Pete....Have you seen any of the R485's Running around yet...that would be cool to see..

No I haven't seen an R485 yet but I saw what looked like a Caterham from a distance recently. It may have been a Westfield or another Lotus Se7en copy. All I know is it sounded the business

This doesn't sound good Pete...is it because you need an update....do you think mate??

Not being online, I'd like to know how the PS3 thinks it needs an update. That would be some serious hocus pocus black magic if that's the case

I've been in contact with an Internet provider & it looks like I might be getting that problem solved soon anyway Only 5 or 6 updates to catch up to you guys

I bet that did sound Awesome whatever it was..

The PS3 works in mysterious ways....lol

That's really good news Pete.....At last...👍👍 That would be good we can all have a race online...Wicked....that is if they sort out the invisible cars and people problem....

PD could do a whole lot worse than sorting their priorities. Solve the existing bugs before adding updates & possibly adding more

Way back in the GT2 days, I used to play 2 player with a mate & we'd have an absolute blast of a time. I had a complete list of cars laptimes so could let him choose a car, determine what car I should pick & have the closest races. I'do him in the corners & he'd blast past in the straight bits. The test for me was pulling a big enough gap out of the last corner(s) & making a dash for the line. Sometimes it'd work, others I'd get pipped at the post. Massive entertainment though.

I could hold Nordschleife 101 classes

I agree with you Pete....Lets hope they sort out the online problem...before giving us new ones....

Sounds like you had a Wicked time online in GT2 with your mate...when you get your internet buddy...we should all definitely have a go...
We can get Shaun on Nordschleife and you can train him up...

Just been on your Thread about the roads....it's a very good idea and i really enjoyed looking at it mate... hope PD will have a look at it and get some ideas on some future roads for us to race on....cheers mate...👍

The GT2 battles were well before online & done using the ancient split-screen method over a few liquid ambers. Ah, the good ole days.
If you know of any roads you reckon would be a worthy addition, feel free to add them to the thread. Just about everyone has a favorite piece of public road they grow fangs on. Somewhere they wish would be closed for a run against the stopwatch. That's the sort of thing I'm looking for wether it's a 10 minute quick blast, somewhere that'll take a day or any length in between.

Internet being installed on 15th September. Got a deal with EE for £21 a month unlimited internet and call package with a now TV box. Fast internet too I have 8 cars tuned up already and will be working on a lot more before I get back online. Thanks Chris for doing the new a spec list. You can look after my garage any time the flat is great, all moved in and it's looking good.

 

[chrisspeed281]

There is something wrong with the AI's at the Apricot Hill 4WD Event. I got Gold with the Subaru Impeza WRX within 38 sec. and with the Nissan GT-R within 34 sec. That's to easy There are to many mistakes from PD at the Seasonals. I hope this happens because they work so hard at the new Update for next week

 

[shaunm80]

If only I could get online and make some more credits oh well, at least I am making lots of new toys for the garage
