Cool cool, so where do I get it?

And yeah, there will definitely have to be some time set aside to play this combo, it is definitely going to be close... :dunce:
 
Looks like it will be another great combo CFM! 👍

I really like Midfield and hope to do well again.

I may find some time to do this :D, even with BC5 👍
 
Thank you sir... I'll have Bob(B-Spec) work on it while I get ready for work so I can put in an hour or so after work this afternoon, and before I head off to work at my other job... :dunce:

Edit: Damnit, maybe I won't, Pat's got the his BC5 race up and waiting for him...
 
for what we´ve seen in BC5, this week is going to be superclose...

great car, we are also running this in the JGTC qualify...

great, great, and Todd you´re getting better everyweek with photomode, cool one again...

looking foward to racing this one today...

too bad we won´t discuss the final section of the track... a lot of time is made there...

another great combo 👍
 
Looks like everybodies favourite track.. and i admit its one of mine too :)

After 6 or so laps

t1: 20.7xx (Could be looking at 19.xxx maybe...)
t2: 41.0xx (stuffed up a corner or 2 so should get to around 39.xx)

👍 great work there CFM, enjoying this combo.. can't wait til the week ends.. the results should be spectacular

My most hated track from GT3 because of its magnetic rumbles, but I think that's been fixed now. I thought I would never say this, but this combo on Midfield looks like fun!
 
Result from the first 10 laps:

T1: 20.553
T2: 40.342

Supersofts + gearing at 270. I'll try 280 next time
 
Great combo CFM! 👍

Really like the track, always have! Even in reverse!

Good car, handles nicely! Even the understeer is predictable and progressive.

Splits from me with super-softs all-round and 270 gearing (I have tried 280, and until I get the lead out of my left foot, they are slower(for me))

T1 20.807
T2 40.756

Cant wait to give this a go. I used to love midfield on GT3, hope its just as good on GT4. The car sounds good, its not the BMW tourer but Im sure we'll have that soon eh ??!! :)
 
lets hope i manage to miracle my way round this one too!!!!
its gonna take alot of practise.... luckily i have no work this week!! he he he
good luck everyone.

another 'interesting' combo there CFM.

This sounds like it might be a nice combo 👍

I used to love this track in GT3, but it lost some of its appeal in GT4, due to the fact that it's hard to take the S turn after the first right 180 full throttle, on particularly fast cars.

I hope this is not the case, with this week's race.

I will give it a try tonight, as soon as I manage to get home from university.

Later.

Interesting combo 👍
First one I've felt like entering in a while

After 5 laps:

T1: 20.916
T2: 40.590
 
Okay, got the leaderboard updated just to get things rolling ... I'll update it again later tonight, although I may not be able to drive until later in the week (don't own the car). I'm also a little bleh about the track ... ODed in the JGTC, so I'll see how I feel later on.
 
Well I did three laps got a good time and have hit a wall the last half hour....meh...whatcha gonna do?

Top Speed 270

T1 - :20.483
T2 - :39.917

Well, I see "Mr & Mrs ARCADE" are back!:irked::lol::lol:
I like this track but NEVER do well here! :indiff: Best after 10 quick laps:

T-1 = 20.6
T-2 = 40.5

Don't see a lot of improvement for me! :banghead: ...O.G. :D
 
after some 30 mins i´ve been doing a nice lap, altough i can just improve in T1, the rest of the lap was a total fluke.

T1 - 0'20.370 - what a gay, lost probably 0.100
T2 - 0'39.476

I guess a total 0.2 better would be my finish time this week. Or even 0.1.
