Yeah, but the controller doesnt slow you down that much in these cars for some reason.....even before the sensitivity modification, I remember getting sub 5:05 at Nurburgring with a controller on the F10 offline..... Although in the red bull the controller is totally useless.....

But your doing good to keep up. :sly:

I just like how the FGT drives on reduced power. I was thinking we could start with a 20 lap GP2 race to warm up, then run the Ferrari F1s for the regular race. I think it'd be fun, informal. Its just boring to see people running practice laps for 40 mins before the race, we could do an GP2 race while waiting for all the people to arrive you know. Sort of like on SPEED how they play the GP2 before the F1 race to get you in the mood.

On 475 hp and 550 kg you get around 6-8 seconds a lap slower than the F1's.... Its good fun. 👍

I like the concept, but unfortunately that practice session is my main practice for the race. I haven't gotten much playing time in since PSN came back up, and none while it was down. While I use my F2007 most of the time I don't stay at the upcoming track all night, especially if I am not running that room. If you change the practice session over officially I will likely not participate in the FGT session, unless I'm solid on that week's track. No big deal though. If I see your room up I'll know we're on in a few, and I can get my practice in from my lobby or something.

I don't know how much I like the idea of switching cars right at qualifying and converting over so quickly. I like the creative way of creating a new open wheel class.
 
I dunno, we wont do it if there's no interest. Although the normal practice before the F1 race would still happen I guess.

As an aside, if you have monsterMan, or "Monsterghoast" as a friend delete him. What a dic k, the other day he told D-UNEXPECTED001 "Fuc k you, fag" and so I had to ditch him....he then sent me a bunch of trash messages about how I am a two faced fuc k and a bunch of other crap......

Just get rid of him. He's on the edge of snapping on anybody at any time. He's nothing but BAD for the racing community....and bad for PSN, Sony.

I want to report him, I just dont know how because he has multiple accounts, so on and so forth. I cant even block his other account because it hasnt sent me a trashy message yet.

He's some psychopathic looser in the Chicago area. He chain smokes while racing & you can here his wife screaming at him in the backround while he goes on long winded rants about how great he is (he cant do so much as 2 laps in any car without crashing.) What a retard.....lol

F1 is 6-8 seconds per lap faster than Formula GT with 900+hp on grand prix tracks , including other cornering tracks but for easy straight tracks like monza they are both the same.

The aerodynamics of the Formula GT is the same performance you'd get 10 years ago.

reducing the hp of the formula GT wouldn't affect too much in cornering tracks because when it has 900 hp it is useless in the corners anyway unless its high speed corner but a very tight high speed corner is the R130 in suzuka , and the formula GT wont do that flat even with much less than 900 hp but with 500 sure it can.

by the way GP2 weighs 600-605 kg with the driver and it produces 580 hp , so the gp2 car weighs about 530-535 kg without driver
580 hp + 530 kg

but by the way im not racing with Formula GT even with restrictions because it doesn't have cockpit view and it is also as easy as a vacuum cleaner , where as the F2007 is no where harder than a vacuum cleaner.

ye thts so true i only race with him now n then but idk , he sent me a message saying he's not going 2 associate with u (mustard ) or any of your friends saying he has people on his side lol .
im up for the FGT idea just not shure what regulations should be set i say base weigh with 550-600hp.

I just looked on Wikipedia, the GP2s weigh 688 Kg, and 580 hp 3.0L's. They were only 2 secs off the pace at Monaco. :sly:Some of the GP2's could likely have gotten mid pack in the F1 race. :sly:

I dont agree that the F2007 is easier than a vacuum cleaner. I imagine a hotel maid or somebody who likes to vacuum alot would find the F2007 almost impossible compared to an industrial vacuum.

The F10 is easier than the full power FGT there's no doubt.... Thats why its lap times are so much faster, lol. The F10 you can control its pitch without sliding around like a bobsled at the winter olympics. :sly:

You;ll find a reduced power FGT is way easier out of slow corners. I was able to actually drive consistent laps at Monaco with it at 475-500 hp. 580 is starting to push it, gets slightly tail happy again at that power.

MonsterMan is friggin nuts.....I am flattered to race with people like Jwill, D-UNEXPECTED001, reventon10, even though they all think their the kings of the Gran Turismo universe. Its fun running within secs of eachother as fast as the cars will go. Others cant match that level of entertainment.

The fact that monster can take looosing shows he's a psychopath. It doesnt make since that another human being is better than him in his own mind. Other's are just objects to suit his needs. Thats the way they operate.

Just delete him, dont mess around with his silly games. Nobody fast races in his rooms because he deletes & blocks all of them because he's too jelous of anybody with any real skill. The only entertainment is holding your breath when his wife comes in and starts screaming profanities, or when he cant make a lap without getting in the wall and he starts throwing $hit around the room like a animal.

I disagree with that. I have run with Monster_Man since November and he has always shown me respect and other people as well including helping newbies with setups and whatnot. I was there when Reventon10 joined his room and started demanding he do this and do that to suit him including driving around the track backwards when he didn't get his way. I was also there when D-Unexpected started complaining about Monsters track pick one time. That's how all of this started. With that said I do agree that what he said about Unexpected was completely uncalled for though.

I said my piece.

His setups are BS, using stock or simply maxing the spring rates, dampers on the F1 cars is all that needs to be done..... :sly: He uses that to make it look like he's treating you all special & unique. Again, its something psycho's use to make their inner circle feel special, while alienating others outside the group who dont support the psycho.

Psychopaths are super sensitive to little perceived insults & slights, but they dont care at all about major life events (being an unemployed low life for example). They have shallow emotions & an incapacity for object love. They actually view others as objects for their own entertainment. They try extra hard to make their friends seem special, which is what he does while all the while creating friction & chaos to entertain himself.
 
WOW dude hash words , in the 2-3 week ive got 2 know him as far as i can see the reasons hes expressed 4 hating D-UN & Rev are in his words there Track manor / edicte ( forgot the spelling on tht 1)is unprofessional & they hav ****** personalities /additudes thats basically HIS reasons , ive heard from other people aswell on the subject on there track behavior but havnt experienced it myself atleast from Rev on the terms of the personalities i really dont much about D-Unexpected ,, Monster has said b4 his goal/ideal room is a fair and friendly racing room and he stressed on the fact of having NO DRAMA or Whining + he also hates stuck up assholes as he would put it .Im not siding with anyone nor am i saying everything u said rich abot him isnt true but now seriously your at the point of whining about it yourself . basically from my point of view the both of you to have really overreacted toured each other , so chill out, that's all for now

I had a very very damning response about monster, but I'm ending it.

Only F1 discussion from here out.

680 kg is with fuel and driver and FGT with 900+ hp will still be much easier because you won't
actually go on the extreme limit because the car simply wouldn't allow you to go there so even if it's 900 hp on its limit your not actually at the 900 hp difficulty , for example in Suzuka if you try and go to turn 1 at 180+ kmh with an FGT you'd go to the wall so it doesn't really matter wether you have 900 hp and the f2007 and FGT has similar aerodynamic rules and mechanism so because it's 900 hp the only reason you will have difficulties is by throttle control which everyone knows and does. It's not about the horsepower but it's actually about the car's aerodynamic regulations , on the limit it's aerodynamics is what you have to tame ^^ and snap oversteer is the #1 very usual mistake for rookies in the F10 and I can tell you the mistake comes from car control.

I dont agree, the FGT is real tough on full power. Mine runs 936 hp.... With no traction control you have to use half throttle exiting the corners! Its damn hard, especially if your trying to eek out every little drop of performance from it out of slow corners.

The car is F-d up in general, lol. It drives with similar performance to an old champ car, albeit with really F-d up steering characteristics, what with the sliding under braking like your on standing water or ice......

.... I really liked CART. Indy Car has been really lame, though its gotten better over the last 2 years with all the street circuits. They need to run a high speed F1 style track, like Austin, Road America, or Watkins Glen..

I grew up watching CART when I was 10-12 years old. Indy had absolutely zilch on the Champ car world series. Even a 10 year old could see that the Indy car league was B-rate.

936 hp on exit is not difficult unless your playing with the downforce, I am considering buying the FGT if I find a $$$ glitch room and the glitch still exists even after the update lol. I drove the FGT on the first month of GT5 then traded for the F2007 then I traded my chrome paint for F10 , I gave my
f2007 to someone but still no cockpit view fails for a single seater car. Well you know how 127's work on an F10 online anyway ^^ but for sure throttle wise FGT can be the same as F10's.
 
I tried a money glitch room and for me it was 80% chance of not getting in the wall, faster to grind the seasonal even, French championship, at de Sarthe.

Tomorrow's Suzuka in the rain (or dry). I;ll let the PS3 decide what it wants. I think 32 laps or so will be the distance. Same as GP/F.

Are you putting it in rain/dry and non-fixed? I guess I don't care which you put it in as long as it's not fixed.

just do fixed because a lot of people think they need to go to the pits stop when they see rain falling but in GT5 it takes about 10 laps when the rain starts to fall before you need an intermediate then rain when its at the max rain , it doesn't really simulate the speed of water stacking and it takes very long time before you actually need to stop. its not like its 53 laps that it would really make unfixed great because if its 32 laps and its unfixed , it actually takes 5-10 laps before the rain comes and 10+ laps before you need the right tyre so if its 32 laps and unfixed your not actually gonna have a genuine extreme weather condition maybe for the last 2 laps.


Im not sure if I can come tomorrow but I will see , oh and im not going to use no ABS in the wet because im a second slower with no ABS but anyway if it was someone else using no ABS in the wet he'd be 5 seconds slower. lol

Qualifying should be fixed as well so people will know who really knows what he's doing , oh and obviously tyre wear on and grip reduction set to real

so it should be a condition similar to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxx3IpblkLQ&feature=related , oh and by the way no aids.

I dont really like fixed weather. ;) But I'll see. Maybe I'll flip a coin. High pressure....low pressure...Heads tails....:sly:

PD should have cut like 500 Skylines, GTR's, Prius', Kubelwagons, & given weather & time change to every track in the game. That'd be great.

Does anybody really want that little Fiat that cant make it up the hill on Edgar Norgand.....LOL. :sly:

Hmm that Fiat 500, u know they sell so many of the modern Fiat 500 so much so they have made enough profit to buy Ferrari and recently Chrysler. Probably fia said to PD, u know what, use the Ferrari F1 in GT5. Had Fiat said No, we probably wouldn't be having this Championship with these F1's 💡 lol

that's why its called Suzuka "weather change" that mean's its gonna have to have aquaplaning at most of the time so people can actually see the differences of people in the rain.

By the way why do you steal vettel's photo's? you can't do that Rich S.

I'm just experimenting with diff avatars. :sly:

AS far as weather goes, I like the random rather than absolute. I'm not the weather god (well I guess I am. :))

I'm going to take a shower, and when I get done I'll open the room up. 6:40 GMT or so. Right now its 5:31.

well its not 32 laps so unfixed is not going to be good

by the time there's "aquaplaning" there's 2 more laps

this is the only wet race were gonna have.

make it 53 laps.

anyway if its unfixed still its going to be a dry start which means im gonna have a dry start too :)

but seriously put it on fixed because people are very different in the extreme conditions.

you've got F2007 and you can't even race in aquaplaning.

So, they give us free free games, free PS plus but no free Avatars?? The cool car ones not the crappy ones :mad:
 
I havent used the free stuff yet, can I still do that?

Anyways I may set it to fixed rain. Dont know how the F10 drives in the rain so it will be interesting, hehe.

No Enzo, I havent used the F2007 for the championship even though its extremely tempting. :sly:

I'll start the free practice in 20 mins or sooner.
 
oh rain unfixed works well so we qualify with rain then when were in the race then it changes and dries up to the last laps.

32 laps sunny unfixed won't work well for a wet race

ive just tested it

it takes 15 minutes before the rain falls

and it takes another 15-20 minutes before you need rain tyre's

so rain unfixed will work well in our wet race

ya , just go with Fixed actually cause its only 32 laps

whose hosting it??

cause I made a room with 5 star quality and no mics
 
Ok, let me be as clear as mud as I have before on this subject.

I can NOT make this upcoming race (scheduled June 12th). I would appreciate it being rescheduled (pushing it forward another week would be best).
 
To be honest, i wanted to quit the race after 5 laps as i was 15 - 20 secs (my best laps)off the qualifying pace. But i thought to myself, what if Mustard decided to have only wet races from here on now till the end of the season. So i stayed and was last from lap 8 after coming third from the 1st cnr incident. And to finish 3rd from all that, it was like a win for me, so THANK you Mustard for introducing the rain, i hope we do more of those as they were quite entertaining and it was fun to see EVERYONE spin a COUPLE of times.

Reventon thanks for bolting and giving Mustard more points. And Endless I am cancelling that check I wrote out to you for taking out Artmann.
