You can fully tune the car Stewy but it still not very seaworthy. Raise the front end (lower the rear) for better turning. I think I set the diff at 6 8 8 -- 2,2 2,2 7,7 -- zeroes for the camb and toe, 7/5 brakes for the suspension. I think the transmission was: reset, then minimum speed, set the final to 4300, use the typical 1st and 6th gear settings, space the other as usual, then move final to the lowest number. I haven't purchased a wing yet but that might help.

Hope to see you tomorrow morning

Hello fellow Geezers, I can't believe I found you guys. I joined early in the year and I don't know if it's because I'm dumb or not but I can never find you guys. I only found this because I spotted a notice that Geezer 1791 mentioned me in a post and I followed it. I see you guys a lot and even have a couple of you as friends and chasing your ghosts have left me feeling my age a lot but it's still good fun. But the drama is I still get nowhere, so if you put me on the right track it would be much appreciated.
Keep up the good work and if you see me on the track it would be real nice to lift those bloody old right feet a bit.:dunce::cheers::cheers:

Welcome aboard! We have a Geezer race room open every Saturday morning 8:30 Eastern time. We'd love to see you join us. We race 3 or four races - as clean as we can with an occasional bump mostly unintentional. P. Mallard
 
For the Mots event at Tsukuba, use the Ferrarri Dino. Completely stock, with or without oil change but you can change the brake balance. P Mallard
Although the Dino handles like a dream, I tried but I'm struggling alot with the 400pp event. Ohh well,, it is what it is.. Now, any ideas for the TT at Apricot for the Motts GZR run? We're pretty much set with few that meet the GZR '69 and older req's but we can run it I think with the 2D or 2J can't we? I really like the two "elder" Nissans, but they're way newer.

Ok, did some checking and see I overlooked the fact the Apricot event has to be 1980 or newer, 2WD Race Car. Well now,, that opens the door for quite a few sweet hotrods we could use - BUT - don't we Geezers try to be just a leetle bit different than the norm? With that in mind I'm proposing we drive a car we seldom see on the track,, the Jaguar XJR-9 '88. It is 1,980,000 credits. In default "as purchased" trim it is 680pp, 749hp. I'm proposing we drive this car - with no visit to the Pit Service - take it directly to the track (driver options to be OK) for the first leg of the MOTTS GEEZER TT. I got a new one - went to Apricot in the TT room in my duce account and lap 3 put silver credits in the bank. Some of you HOT SHOE GEEZERS just might nail a 1:11 GOLD with the default set up 👍👍. WSY? (what say you) :sly:.

Awritte then (visualize Jim Carey in Pet Detective :)👍) We've heard from 4 (actually it's 5 if we add myself) Geezers who agree,, the Jag will be our 700pp event entry. We'll run it as described to the 2 week from finish point then it's Katy Bar the Door - it will be full tune, everything the event will allow and see what we can do :nervous:,, GL all we elders!! 👍👍

21Nov2016 - Lets go for it with the FULLY Tuned (per the event specs) car now. For those who're still doing the Motts event,, Good Luck Geezers.

Lets go!
 
:confused:To all Geezers. How many of us is having PS4 or will have in future or something else?
With PS4, which game will replace GT6 ( seems that TT's now are collecting a little bit more drivers than some months ago )
I have made up my mind that after GT Sport I will buy PS4, but no confirmed release date makes it a little bit tricky.
I don't want to stop playing with Geezers, so is there still interest playing GT6 2017 or will be another game with PS3 ?
Or changing to PS4 and play something else before GT Sport any idea ?

Please hurry I should have ideas asap that I could send letter to Santa!:gtpflag:
 
Send your letter mate, i come in on Saturday only because i miss you other geezers that i don't see on ps4.

Games are better on ps4 as well as well as the fact you can talk to your mates at the same time as they are playing a different game.

:cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers::cheers:
 
GT 6 has been pretty stable for the last few months. Certain players seem to get disconnected, but only occasionally. I'd buy a ps4 and a game if I knew which one would afford the enjoyment we now have with GT6. Project Cars seems to be the only game that you can race with "friends only". However I also understand the wheel setup is not very friendly, but is very important. Am I missing something? What other game would be viable? P Mallard

What wheel are you going to use on ps4 mate, i tried the G29 then the Thrustmaster T300 rs.
Thrustmaster wins hands down and works with all games that i have tried.
 
I've pretty much made the move to ps 4 and am using G29. I like pCars fine even though you could spend days stting your wheel up. Mine is mostly left on stock settings. Assetto corsa is fine though still a bit limited. You CAN get into online lobbies then invite friends. The separate chat option on ps4,in my mind, helps game stability. I have rarely seen any lag when using the party chat. I have some friends playing Dirt rally and they seem to enjoy it
I hope to connect with geezers again soon

It will be a Thrustmaster, but since I have no plans to migrate to another game, I may wait for the new Thrustmaster wheel. We can revisit the wheel issues this Saturday.
 
I bought my ps4 in anticipation of the GTS beta promised for February......... so i'd bought pCars so it wouldn't just be a dust collector. When AC came along was excited to play it. The only real issue I have with AC is the dlc, which is available to the rest of the planet is not available in the Indonesian/Asian ps store ........... freaky huh?
 
I'll be out of town this Saturday, so I can't host a room. Hopefully someone can fill in. Duce had suggested the award car (Citroen GT) from the current 700 pp race event. It understeers quite a bit. I used it in the event where we win it and passed all the cars, so it's driveable. If I have time tonight I'll test one of the chassis tunes they offer in the suspension screen. P Mallard

OkeeDokee fellas, 'ol Duce will host in Stewy's room since I don't have a room. Best if you just click on "FRIENDS" and follow one of the GZR's into the lobby.

Hope some of the old gang will be up to driving this beast. I've driven it a few laps around Apricot and liked it alot. I didn't notice the under steer too much but as you guys know I don't push it into the corners quite as aggressively - just use the "NO GUTZ" way of driving so it (under steer) didn't pose a major issue for me.

Anyway, it's the GT by Citroen Road Car, driven "as is" from the award. Go ahead and visit the PIT shop, do the oil change and add racing brakes for tomorrow's (lost track of the day I was posting this note - ment to say Saturdays) GZR races. Everything else is default.

We'll start at Apricot Hill (forward, like the 700pp event) and go from there.

Ps; I met a British fellow in QM (GodFather53) and invited him to the races. We'll see if he's available tomorrow. Seems to be a good guy, drives quick and clean - and he's 63 so he's a geezer 👍👍
