So there's no real room for growth of the series unless the reserve lists start to fill up. I understand. Thank you
 
I fully expect to see sub 1.28's at Fuji tbh.
:crazy:I think that the Nissan Nismo GT-R '08 has some advantage in this track,I did 1'29.8!
 
I am not sure if I will se sub 1:30's. :(
 
Arkano,Why did you choose Fuji Gt instead the F1 one?Personally I would have preferred the F1 version because you can overtake on the Dunlop corner(corner 10°)!

So are you in? Kinda confused me a little.

The GT-R's are OP no matter where they are :lol:.

Because the Dunlop corner is royal pain! :sly:.
 
that chicane would cause endless replay watching to catch everyone who made a stupid move up the inside so its best to leave it out, and you can still overtake there.
 
1'29.3 with the Nissan Calsonic.Arkano I really doubt that someone can make sub 1'28's!it would be out of this world Crono!
 
These sub 1:30 times. I assume they are clean two tire on track laps? How about turn 10?

Those are impressive times guys. Damn. I need to try my Supra and see if it's the car or me. But I am solid 2 seconds off.
 
Do we run this league in an open lobby or private lobby? Guess there is tire wear difference and want to practice in the right environment.
 
i made this time with the Suzuka set-up!probably with an appropriate set-up sub1'28s isn't so impossible!
@Owen:yes we do run in a private lobby like we have done in the last race on Suzuka!

Open lobby and private lobby run the same physics, but it's hosted in a private lounge.

It's not actually possible to cut turn 10 either, going wide loses you time and cutting it also loses you time.

I told you 1.28 is possible :p Not so sure I'll hit that though. I'll get on and practice tomorrow :).
 
Thanks. I was thinking it was private, just wanted to be sure.

I personally have not tested to see if there is a difference that I can see. Do plan to check this out. There are racers claiming open lobby tires come up temp better and faster. Where the private lounges are slow to come to temp and some say they barely get lightness in the blue. Again, just something some respected racers were discussing. Not fact.
 
Well... I just put some laps down and the fastest I could do was 1:31.461. What kind of times are the other Lexus drivers getting?

Sorry I wasn't online earlier tonight Owen, I was caught up with other things. I would come on now but I'm far too tired to even watch fast cars!

I should be on online for the majority of tomorrow. Haven't really been online this week, so it's time to powerdown some Fuji practice.

Good to hear! :).
 
It will be a tough race tomorrow,Go slowly guys:sly:
 
Just had a go on Fuji, I'm getting consistent 1:31's and I'm able to get a mid to high 1:30 when I push the car with my stock NSX using racing softs.
I can't see how a 1:28 is even possible with a stock Super GT unless Engine Stage 3 or a turbo is used, :/ but I can see a 1:29 being possible though.
 
Got 1.30.3xx earlier on Wednesday with the Arta NSX @502 bhp.

I need some more race practice, quali pace is fine for me.

Are you using Engine Stage 3 and limiting the power to 502?
Unless I missed something while I was on holiday I thought it was decided that all cars must be stock exept for the Lexus cars which are allowed to use a Stage 2 Turbo, :/ the NSX only has 498 Bhp when stock. I'm confused now :|
 
The ARTA, Raybrig, and Takata NSX will make over 500 broke in and completely stock.
 
I'm afraid they don't, I've got the Epson NSX and the Takata Dome NSX and they both only have 498 Bhp stock broken in and even with an oil change. ;)

Sorry guy but you're wrong. I have all four broken in. Epson makes less and weighs more then the other three. They are indeed over 500 stock. If you want proof I video tape me showing the HP and mods. Which is chassis and soft tires.

As Owen said, you're wrong ;).

My Raybrig has around 502bhp fully broke in with oil change. And no one is using turbo/stage 3 because we can check in the replays/watch race.
 
Joey, after you do an oil change the hp slowly rises
i've not got any practice for tonight since my memory stick c**pped out and i had to redo most of my coursework so dont expect anything special :(
 
Did some testing. Got into the 31's. Car is smooth as silk and easy on tires. So I am gonna stick with the set up. It's more race oriented then time attack. Hopefully it treats me well on longer runs.

I'm hosting a private lounge/room now for practice.

Ok then, well maybe the raybrig and arta are different then.
Btw you can't check if anyone is using stage 3 in the replays, only the turbos you can see ;) Hopefully people will follow the rules anyway. :)
 
Joey, you are wrong. :P
Stock with oil change and i have 502bhp. I will be there for practice, lemme have a quick shower.

Well it must be that the Raybrig and Arta NSX are different then because I have both the Epson and Takata Dome NSX and they are both fully broken in and they only have a max of 498 bhp with an oil change. Either that or I have a dodgy copy of GT5. :/
 
I would like to be added to the reserve list.
