this car is lovelly, specially with -10% on weight... nice choice... it had to be a good car to go in hong kong... which is not a very interesting track... at least for now, i have spent few time there... hope to get some laps today... 👍 👍
 
Back from vacation and looking forward to this interesting combo! The car is fine from what I remember, and will make this track more interesting to master it!
 
This car was one of the best in GT2, and still is!

I'm not really a big fan of the track, but I havn't really driven it much, but that's all going to change this week.
 
:drool: Nice picture - the flame job is so cool. :sly:
Will have to give this a try, tough track to race on, hope the car does it well and FAST.
 
Lovely car. I was busy testing it on several tracks (mainly italian ones) a few days ago. The track is interesting, especially since I've never really found a great racing line through all these tight turns.
I'll try and keep off the walls, but the big issue is : will the walls stay out of my way ? :dopey:
 
This Alfa is one of the most understated and best handling race car in the game. It's been my second favorite since I found it (BMW M3 Race car #1) Hong Kong is a tough one to get a feel for. Should be fun.
 
Just ran about five laps. Still looking at the track map to see which way to turn :lol: It's going to take some time to get used to this car. Gotta get back to work though.

T1 25.073
T2 52.532
 
Ah, a relic of the good ol' unlimited-technology DTM days. Gotta love it!

BTW that picture ROCKS.

Can't wait to try this out - Hong Kong is one of the more fun city courses. It's gonna be mighty narrow now though.
 
Nice combo CFM. 👍 You're really tempting me with this one. One of my fav cars on one of my fav city courses. What to do?.......BC or WRS......hmmmm. :D
 
Just had half hour with the Ti

so far...

24.49x
50.89x

having trouble keeping away from those walls...thought Citta di aria was bad....

The Alfa seems to want to understeer mid bend quite badly....should be an interesting week.

Oh and half hour is enough with THAT engine note.......
 
Woooo, finally a nice race car!
I could use a fair bit of practice on this track so i'm definately racing this week! My neck is feeling a little better now so I can handle sitting in my cockpit seat. Now I just gotta hope my new Matt Black paint job on my setup is dry!
 
Finally an Italian car 👍 :cheers:

Too bad I don't have much experience on this track, yet.
Oh well, there is only one way to fix that :D

I will start racing when I get home from university.

Later and nice combo, Todd 👍

The Wizard.
 
i like Hong Kong, but it has been a while since I've raced on it, so this will be fun.

Of course, got to win this car first ... a good choice for winning the Italian Festival?

(It seems that the WRS is the only way I can actually advance my game nowadays :p)
 
well well well!!

i have no idea what to say about this combo, cos not only have i never ventured round this track i've never driven the car either!!!

thanks for another great challenge tho CFM!!

throw me some tips koly and veilsidebr will you....? i think i'm gonna need em!!!
 
:lol:

Ex, did you call the other night?? i was out so im not sure if you did or not?????
 
Not Bad,Not Bad......

If you ignore the engine note, this car is a pleasure to drive.

Another momentum race!


T1 25.496
T2 52.580 - Screwed up the hairpin, braked too late!

Loads to find.

GREAT Combo CFM!!! :cheers: NO way to resist this one! Better post some splits for the other Slow Guys to beat! :trouble: Only had time for 7-8 Laps...will try to get in another session ASAP!

T-1 = 24.096
T-2 = 50.183

...O.G.
:D
 
I hate this track, but I've spent enough time here trying to win races I've actually gotten pretty decent at it! (go figure eh?)

I've got this car but haven't driven it yet - should be fun...

EXelero
throw me some tips koly and veilsidebr will you....? i think i'm gonna need em!!!

Can I get some of that action? lol.
My neck is feeling much better now, although it's still pretty painful I can handle jumping back into my cockpit. Talking of my cockpit the paint dried!!! Check it out:

BTW it's Matt black and no that isnt a deliberate pun (my name is matt)
