So, I was thinking of what to do to break in one of my new cars for a Spot Race later on next month. I looked at my endurance events on B-Spec, thinking that I'd might as well grind the daylights out of another event that I could easily win. However, upon seeing 9 hours of Tsukuba, and remembering that I hadn't done it on A-Spec yet, because of how desperately agonising the 4-hour Tsukuba enduro was with the Mazda MX-5's, I was always severely put off....
I decided to do it anyway, given I'm nearly level 40 and this'll pretty much bump me up.
The Car:
A Race Modified Acura NSX '91
Racing Specifications:
Power: 294 bhp / 7300 rpm
Torque: 30 kgfm / 5800 rpm
Weight: 1045 kg
Transmission: Manual (MT)
Top Speed: 168 mph (~270 km/h)
Performance Points: 495
Tyres Used: Racing Hard
Aids: All off, except ABS at 1
Overview:
Because the car would be stock and Racing Hard restricted in the Spot Race, I decided that I'd go with the same setup (none!) for this event also. I kinda knew that I may be faster than the opposition, despite knowing that I really shouldn't given the lower power, torque and lack of tuning, as well as Racing Hards.
I decided to have two other tyre options, for if the situation on the current tyres is too easy or too difficult. I have Sports Soft tyres for much less grip, meaning slower laps times if I end up being too quick, and Racing Softs for if Racing Hards prove too slow and I need the help.
Opposition and Grid:
1. V.Finley - BNR34 Skyline GT-R V.spec N1
2. P.Montoya - CT230R
3. T.Morelli - Amemiya FD3S RX-7
4. R.Eichel - Amuse S2000 GT1
5. G.Valentine - Stage II R32
6. G.Walsh - G37
7. D.King (Me) - NSX RM '91
8. W.Cole - IS F Racing Concept
9. L.Guillot - Gran Turismo 350Z RS
10. U.Esposito - BNR34 Skyline GT-R N1 Base
11. A.Fowler - FT565 twin turbo Audi TT
12. E.Eriksson - Nismo 380RS Super Leggera
Starting at 7:45pm, and there will be breaks in between to write, sleep and whatnot. Wish me luck! I'll keep ya all posted.
