I was shocked at how early these Seasonal Events were posted this week. I exited out to the main menu and saw the "NEW" tag just after 10pm EST. I've never seen it that early. I'm not going to try these events just yet. I'm a zone having fun with last week's races still... Awesome job as always @nowcontrol!!

Good luck everyone!

Yes, you are certainly " now in control" of these Time Trials, I agree with Alby, you are doing a great job.

I agree also. Great Job:tup:👍👍👍👍

I'm waiting also for a tune. I have the AE version that's never been driven.

 

[Daulton]

Anyone got a good tune for the X-BOW R12 for this event that could help me out a bit? Mine just keeps sliding around.

 

[tbone_2004]

What is this?! A time trial or a drift trial?! I can't keep my car on the road!

 

[Daulton]

Haha!!! It's so hard to keep it on the road!

 

[tbone_2004]

Haha!!! It's so hard to keep it on the road!

It reminds me so much of San Francisco Rush when you select the "Full Simulation" difficulty, and your car slips and slides all over the track, and you crash more than you drive.

As the announcer would say: "IT'S DANGEROUS!!!"

Here is some tunes here https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...opean-car-super-lap-ascari-full-track.312695/ and I gold easy with using @WhoosierGirl anniversary edition X-Bow setting and you have to add more power to get it up to 580pp.

can someone post the anniv car settings so those of us without the car can use the setup

 

[croozer_63]

Well PD have really out done themselves with this one. Maybe they should send some marshals out to sweep the track, I think it must be covered in sand. Wow, what a let down after the last set of seasonals. Golded and gone.

I agree with you, I think the seasonal A-spec races are better than the TTs.

 

[JamesLSn1]

not interested in this one got gold easy and done. Just have to add hp to it. Surprisingly just one lap 1:13.709 puts at 1217 but its way early.

 

[nExx]

Here's my lap, a 1:12:040 for #112. Really twitchy and nervous, but maybe thats because of the setup. IF you get it right it's fun, but if not, you are OFF! Tune at the end of video...

My tune was that bad eh Ive never had a tune make anyone cry before, throw their controller at the wall perhaps, but never cry. Glad it helped get an quick(ish) time.

Those were tears of joy.

I like a challenge, respect to all the tuners out there but y'all just making it easy, that's why I do all stock cars for career races and seasonals, only sometimes I use slightly tuned cars. I just ran this in a stock X-BOW Street, no oil change, took me about ten trys to get gold but ran a 1:13.861. No need for X-BOW R or Anniversary edition and easy tunes. Stock Cars FTW! Challenge yourselves! 👍

 

[nowcontrol]

Stock Cars FTW! Challenge yourselves! 👍

That is why @Hastatus creates these lovely threads for us, there are a few members who like the stock challenge and post their best times to add to the GTP stock seasonal TT spreadsheets.... but then they will also run fully tuned to compete for a higher placing here.

 

[BMWcrazy]

1:12.642...this car hates me.

 

[Fanapryde]

Those were tears of joy.

Can't see the joy in driving the X-Bow on sport hard tires on this 🤬🤬 "circuit"...
More than 100 tracks to choose and how many times this 🤬 gets "picked" for seasonals ?
And you might think the cones are showing the track boundaries... noooo...
1:14:125 after +50 tries ... I guess I'm done with this.

 

[shoenboggie]

I kind of like this TT, used an old Ascari tune with more power to get a good first run of 1:11.088. Slippy for sure, dance with the throttle big time. May make a good effort at this one.

 

[Frankenstein62]

I am quite amazed at how low the seasonal challenges have become, drift trials ? Better buy a Formula 1 race game so that I can play tennis.
It seems to be the done thing to select a track find the most ridiculous car and then impose ridiculous tyre settings
Rant over

 

[Polsixe]

Bit of an aside but is it pronounced "ex-bow" or "cross-bow" ?

 

[IBZ6L20VT]

I am really enjoying this TT so far. I encourage everyody struggling with this combo to give it a try. Reminds me to the LFA at Brands Hatch. Hard to get used to it, but once you tame it, it's quite rewarding.

 

[SVPSkins]

im not ever going to attempt this one. hate anything with either willow spring tracks

 

[numbnuts70]

Cross-bow as in the weapon.

 

[Fanapryde]

Cross-bow (edit: was mentioned before)

Btw: down to 1:13:856 (finally)
I noticed that body rigidity had to be repaired. My X-bow has 780km.
First try after the "repair" got me the gold.
Rather happy now, since I won't feel the need to go back to this tomorrow morning...

I have to add: two weeks ago I watched a race in Zolder (Belgium), where two X-Bows were racing amongst other (normal) race cars. They did rather well, not twitchy at all.
They were probably on proper race tires...
