Go for the win with the old Integra. I'm wondering if it's going to show up for TOCA Season 4...
 
Pictures taken of next race, they took an hour though so I'll wait to post the actual report.👍
 
Here's an idea, V8's at Tsukuba at Season 3! That was pretty cool stuff despite the occasional contact between drivers.
 
Dont think so mate. You might be able to get in as a reserve though.

So you only want to make reports of races YOU have won? :/

No, it's just you never have entertaining races, if I get the Elise replay, I could do that for my 4th report, I'm also extremely lazy so the 3rd one is very slowly getting here.

What about me? There are many others out there who have won races that have been of very high quality.

Well the next one is my first online win, but what race to you want covered? I don't have the feature race from Tsukuba in the V8's saved.

First off, sorry for the quality of the pictures, standards look ugly, anyway, TOCA Season 2, Laguna Seca, Race 2, had an average race 1 and that blue Integra in the backround is me starting in 7th, pole is pj-gm ahead of tombrooks.

granturismo038.jpg

Very spaced out grid at Laguna means that there was next to no movement at the start and the 4WD Atenza's only had a slim chance of getting a place against the FR BMW's and FF Honda's.

granturismo036.jpg

Turn 3, tombrooks leading from pj.

granturismo035.jpg

Carbonox into the gravel

granturismo034.jpg

johnboy-1975--akmuq-Carbonox

granturismo033.jpg

Battle for 2nd and 4th, furinkazen-pj-gm and johnboy-akmuq

granturismo032.jpg

Behind me, Carbonox overtakes johnboy for 5th.

granturismo031.jpg

As the field negotiates the corkscrew, vtecsyndrome cutting it.:boggled:

granturismo030.jpg

tombrooks, who had made quite a lead through the lap, makes a mistake.

granturismo029.jpg

I got past Furinkazen and pj-gm, and with Carbonox already behind, they go 3-wide behind me.

granturismo028.jpg

Pj went off, and Carbonox gets the traction out of the final turn and goes ahead.

granturismo027.jpg

But I out-braked him into turn 2.

granturismo026.jpg

And he gets the drive out of the turn to take the position back.

granturismo025.jpg

But I finish the move.

granturismo023.jpg

In second and I've the drive on tombrooks up to turn 6.

granturismo022.jpg

And slip through as the field bunches on tom through the final turn allowing me to get away.

granturismo021.jpg

PJ and tom fighting for second, furinkazen and johnboy fighting for 4th, I left them. I love this picture because it looks like it's organized at about 30 MPH, but they're at racing speed on the way up to the Corkscrew.

granturismo020.jpg

And they're battling really allowed me to get away, 2.6 seconds by the end of the lap.

granturismo019.jpg

Tom goes off.

granturismo018.jpg

And Johnboy finally establishes himself in second place.

granturismo017.jpg

Skip a lap and my 6 second plus lead shrinks as I go into the gravel at the final turn.

granturismo016.jpg



granturismo015.jpg

And he's got past Johnboy

granturismo014.jpg

And quickly hunting down me.

granturismo013.jpg

Jamie and Johnboy going 2-abreast into turn 10

granturismo012.jpg

Another lap skipped and an error has cost Jamie, I'm going into turn 11, johnboy is coming out of turn 10, and Jamie is going into turn 10.

granturismo011.jpg

Vtecsyndrome all over the back of Jamie.

granturismo010.jpg

But Jamie catches up to johnboy again.

granturismo009-1.jpg

And they come out of the Corkscrew 2-wide.

granturismo008.jpg

Johnboy comes out on top in this battle.

granturismo007-1.jpg

Desperate to overtake johnboy, Jamie goes off into the gravel, race over.

granturismo006-2.jpg

Or is it?:mischievous:

granturismo005-2.jpg

Yes, it was the last lap and this was the gap at the end, my first win, by 2.5 seconds!:D

And that's the new state of my lead with Jamie-C in 3rd behind Johnboy in the backround, just so you know Jamie-C is really fast.

And he's got past Johnboy
