[Mistral]

GTRP's proposition cannot be chosen. The Toyota ESSO Ultraflo Supra (JGTC) 2001 doesn,t exist in the US version of GT4.

Sorry for that.

 

[Duke]

OK, GTRP, please come up with a alternate car, and we'll correct that. Thanks for pointing that out, Mistral.

 

[IforceV8]

Supra (au Cerumo JGTC '01)

close enough?

 

[NoQuarter]

Some interesting combos...

One question...How will Arcade Weight specs be enforced/tech inspected?

 

[Duke]

There's no real way, which is why most combos call for Full Quick Tune in the details. If you think it will be a problem, we'll have to make all the tunes be for max power / min weight, and find other ways to adjust the difficulty such as increasing AI strength or limiting tire compounds.

Supra (au Cerumo JGTC '01)
close enough?

If it's available in both versions, it's close enough for me. Can someone confirm?

 

[Small_Fryz]

yep is available in both versions

 

[Mistral]

yep is available in both versions

Same! 👍

 

[Duke]

OK, well, if we don't hear from GTRP with an alternate of their choice, I'll make that substitution.

 

[madbesl]

Hi Duke,

there is a little typo in the SOGT race.

It is the Motegi Roadcourse - the long one.

 

[eggmann]

Also for Team Numbers, the top speed setting should be default.

Denso Supra Sard .... please ... 👍

 

[Mistral]

Go for it babe!

Hello Didi!

 

[Mistral]

By GTN, can you confirm it's the M3 GTR Road and not Race.

 

[IforceV8]

M3 race car

 

[Mistral]

Ok, thx Iforce!

According to what they PMed me, yes. I think it's OK as an option.

tire wear,penalties?

 

[Duke]

All other options open means they did not submit a specification for those items. So it is assumed that most drivers would prefer no tire wear, time limit, or penalties.

 

[IforceV8]

Never assume anything in a Board Challenge.

 

[Duke]

Well, I agree, but it's open - there is no specification on those items. If a given driver wishes to select particular settings, he may do so.

 

[IforceV8]

Loopholes 👎 plug em up or they will drown you.

 

[bobkart]

No Tire Wear or Penalties in our proposal. Apologies for leaving those unspecified.

 

[CFM]

No Tire Wear or Penaties are the settings for GT Planet's race.

 

[IforceV8]

No Tire Wear or Penalties in our proposal. Apologies for leaving those unspecified.

Is the weight setting the same as the power?

 

[bobkart]

Is the weight setting the same as the power?

The proposal lost something in "translation", here is my original wording as submitted to the BC5 Administration:

1.4.10: 5-lap Arcade Race at Sears Point (Sports Car Course) in the '69 GT40 Race Car, 0% Power (493HP), RH tires, everything else "open"

So the "everything else open" part is meant to cover all that was not specified, including in this case, Weight. Short answer, Weight is "open", up to the competitor. I left weight open on all of our proposals since it cannot be confirmed by watching the replay.

 

[IforceV8]

Thanks 👍

 

[Duke]

All corrections to date reflected in first post.

 

[Duke]

Polls open! I anticipate leaving them open for about 48 hours, but that can be discussed.
