GTP WTAC Week 41 : Mazdaspeed Power

[easyasashii]

sausages !

Hey guys, I'm posting early this week 'cause I'm traveling. It's carnival time here in Brazil so nothing is happening here work-wise. I'll be flying to South-Africa tomorrow to visit my relatives for a week. I might find a gap to try to better my times but just in case I don't...

Have a nice trip 👍 !

Mazda6 Touring Car : 1'27.163

I already cracked twice the 1'26 barrier but unclean ! Still haven't found the right tuning yet and busy weekend ...

Dan360, MVR08, I think you guys should be at least around 1'26.5-6 !

Good luck !

 

[MVR08]

MVR08, where are you at ? Still keeping it secret ?

^No secrets this week I wasn't running (no free time to play)
but today I ran a session with the Masdaspeed Atenza 05 and put a 1'35.3xx
I want to do a 1'34.xxx by the end of the session but I need to tune the car to do so and I'm not good at it

I also ran a few 3 lap races with the Masda6 Touring Car and fastest lap was 1'27.1xx

still stuck at 1'38..xxx

I thought you were going for a 007 !

but today I ran a session with the Masdaspeed Atenza 05 and put a 1'35.3xx
I want to do a 1'34.xxx by the end of the session but I need to tune the car to do so and I'm not good at it

All the faster laps I ran are slightly unclean, best of them was a 1'35.188. I guessed you guys might end up being in the high 1'34, now I'm sure of that ! I even can see myself there but that would mean spend hours of "try and miss" and I really need to focus more on the Touring Car -I want a clean 1'36 ! Once I have one, I'll stop !- and have not that much time to play !

I also ran a few 3 lap races with the Masda6 Touring Car and fastest lap was 1'27.1xx

See ?! If you're already there...

BTW :

I need to tune the car to do so and I'm not good at it

According to your stats, you should be pretty confident about your tuning skills !!!

EDIT : 1'27.085. I have to wait tonight and/or tomorrow to try again...

Good times, everyone!

 

[Dan360]

Both cars had no suprises in terms of handling (probably due to 4WD), but tuning them to make their backs kick out was fun!

Mazda Mazdaspeed Atenza '05 - 1'35.448

Mazda6 Touring Car - 1'26.369

Combined time: 3'01.817

BTW Detroitbb, I thought the MazdaSpeed Atenza wasn't in GT4? I've checked my garage and the Mazda Dealership and I couldn't find the car.

 

[bigllama93]

nvm

 

[Detroitbb]

It's in GT4. At least it's in my copy of GT4 (and I pre-ordered it and picked it up the day of release in North America). It's a NFS (Not For Sale) car and can only be won in the Professional Clubman Cup. The pictures I've posted are all from GT4 and feature the same car with the exception of me adding different rims.

WARNING : You forgot to upload your replays !!!

 

[MVR08]

WARNING : You forgot to upload your replays !!!

Ohh! please!! don't say that

I always thought it would suck to do that but it really hurt me more than I thought it would
I'm sick with the flu and last night was too tired and wanted to go to bed so I guess that play me a trick (a really bad one though).

Its kind of fun at first but very sad later on so if you want to know I'm going to be in fetal position the rest of the day... have a nice day and see you later!

 

[Detroitbb]

I hope to have time later this evening to calculate the placements for this past week's challenge... but if I don't, then I'll do it tomorrow.

 

[Detroitbb]

This week's event would've been won by MVR08, but his replay files were submitted too late (I've done the exact same thing four times myself!)... so the winner of this week's challenge was Dan360. Congratulations to Dan! Second place went to easyasashii and third went to sausages.

Overall standings are as follows: Dan360 moved into first overall; red ice drops into a tie for second with easyasashii; pvr77 and I are both tied for fourth; sausages solely hold sixth place; bigllama93 and MVR08 are tied for seventh place.
