Hey El mano. I just got an e-mail from BestBuy concerning the shipping of all the products. It stated that the PS2 was shipped out on the 20th, while everything else was shipped on the 19th. So you might get it tomorrow.
 
I submitted my times to Talentless by PM.
How did you do, boom?
Any improvement since your last pm?
 
NO. :(

I was rather upset at myself for not being able to improve. :mad:

I think that my last PM stated 1'15".060. That's what I turned in to Talentless.

I saw your time Mr. Holland! ;) Way to go! I have come to the realization that I can no longer beat you! :)
Did you submit your Round 6 time? That's due today also if I recall correctly.
Did you get a Xport yet?
 
El mano.

You should now have access to the "Private Garage."
 
No, i don't have an Xport yet, may take another week:(

I've made a little improvement today: 1.14.489
But you have definetly beaten me on round 6.
I've come to the conclusion that Monaco and 787b are no combo for me:yuck:
I didn't even manage to get under the 1.19:(

So i know who'll start from pole-position in monaco:)
Congratulations!
 
Yeah, I ended up with a 1'17".xxx at Monaco.

Hmmmm. What if we tie for the entire series? ;)


What is your HP rating in the NSX? I'm around 351 HP.

I did the "Skyline Challenge" in the "Spot races" forum! Just for fun.
Who's #1? :D
But just barely. Lotus is hot on my tail!
 
Keeping the HSB name high, i see :D:thumbsup:
You're showing team Skidmarkz who's the boss:p

My NSX has 350 HP. Strange thing happened when i looked back at my replay of the NSX lap. 100 meters before the end of the lap the car suddenly spins against the wall. And i know that didn't happen while i was racing. He suddenly slams the brakes, steers to the right and spins into the wall:confused: Did this ever happen to you?

Woah! :eek:

No, I've never seen that happen before. But you only see that in the replay right?

Are you sure you weren't up late one night partying with all the guys! :D

:lol: No i was still sober then.
But it is only in that replay. But the time is correct, so it doesn't matter that much. It's just a little glitch.
 
I've been moved back to 3rd in the "Skyline Challenge"

I do still think that I have a great time considering that the car I used has about 150 less HP than the cars in 1st and 2nd.
 
The PS2 has arrived as well as all of the accoutrements. I got it hooked up this weekend and have started getting my licenses and whatnot.

PS. Boomy, I got a new car friday.
 
About today's race, the 2 laps on free run, must they be 2 laps in a row or 2 seperate laps?
Like lap 5 and lap 12?
Or like lap 5 and lap 6?
 
I don't know for sure. I've been doing 2 consecutive laps. I would ask Talentless to make sure.

I'm going to e-mail you some GT3 stuff El mano!


What kind of car did you get?
 
Then i will do 2 consecutive laps too.
I thought that was the plan, but i didn't know it for sure.
 
A Civic...now you can beat me in your Lex. I've subtracted 100HP from the CL. I haven't flogged it properly as I'm waiting to break it in some more so I'm not entirely sure how fast it is.

That's my plan too. I just don't want there to be any issues with this. We will not be the ones in question. ;)

I could always spank you in the Lex. If it wasn't in a straight line that is! :D

So is it a brand new one?
If so, that car is still quick.

Isn't the race ending in a few hours?
 
Brand new 2002 Civic Si. It's not the prettiest car for sure but it's cool and it's cut my monthly payments by more than half.

I'm no longer labeled "Doesn't post enough" and have graduated to "New member." :D
 
El mano,

Have you installed the Shark Port yet?
Have you done any practicing yet?
Do the time trials first to hone you skills back to where they should be.
