@JASON_ROCKS1998 , consider hiding others times before you reach the deadline. That way other players won't know what time they have to target.

I'm going to be late for this round, but I may test my skills in the second round.
 
I might try this. The street versions of the Honda NSX isn't my strong suit, but I'll give it a shot.

EDIT: Question: Do they need to be stock or can I dump 1000 Horsepower into an NSX?
Only tuning parts that are available in the base game. No mods or cheats or anything.
So is that why everyone get's 1:3X.XX while i get like 1:45.XX+ with an Honda NSX Type R?
Probably
Do you have to acquire the tuning parts legitimately? So long as they are the actual ones you can get for the car?
Doesn't matter how you get the parts, as long as they are the normal tuning parts for said car.

Edit: All times have been added to OP.

One more thing:
cutting corners and using the walls/other cars is Prohibited.
Post only clean laps.

Yes, forgot to say that. It's not as easy on Tokyo as it is a closed off city course but any times that are found out to be invalid will not be counted.

What is your best lap so far?

EDIT: I just got 1.34.129 with the Honda NSX Type S Zero.

I find it funny how everyone is in the 1:34s. Meanwhile I've yet to make a run in my NSX because I used it stock before.
 
Alright then, any entries beyond 3 reduces the points won by 1 per extra attempt until you reach 0 points.

@DurWinning You can still enter in a stock NSX, just that you'll probably be last...
 
It took me 2 hours of tuning and practicing to get that 1.34.129 , and then @Harsk100 came and beat me by 100 milliseconds!
I think the new point system is good.

I know. I'm just going to dump as much HP as I can in my NSX and get some slicks and hope that is does the job.
 
Scratch out my previous post, I'm going to make it, just found some spare time.

NSX Type R '92 - 1'36.919

The Type R model tends to produce very fierce understeer when pushed above its limits than the S Zero, but at the same time it delivers more tolerable amount of oversteer when the throttle is released. I decided to rely on understeer on this track, but according to the times others have set, this could have been a bad decision. Very tricky combination for the first round, that is for sure.

I'm not sure how you guys managed to set such impressive times, but this is the best I could do without colliding. And I won't upload any more times for this round, this hunt for the official acknowledgment that you can be the best after you have seen what others can do is a bit unusual.

The R is a bit underpowered compared to the S zero. Oversteer is the way to go. I chaned the gear ratio, LSD and the suspension strength to get the car to oversteer properly.
 
@JASON_ROCKS1998 Jason, I wanted my lap time to be updated. I have improved to 1'34.019.

Type R is a bit underpowered as it is 5-speed manual gearbox while the S Zero has 6. However, as I tuned it, so I managed to make it faster. My NSX is fully tuned, if you guys didn't notice. 👍
