I agree with Pink about the R33 being the most beautiful generation, because I'm just biased towards 33s, but as Leo said, the R34 is a far closer match to a Supra RZ. And if Downshift is so confident that an R34 can't touch an RZ, then I'm sure he won't object to us using one.

At least Pink shows some humility and admits that an R34 on maximum spec could well be faster than a Supra at the same level.

And as for the R390 versus the GT-One, most of us wouldn't want to use the R390 anyway: it is not a Skyline. Downshift, you said that this is Toyota vs. Nissan - it isn't, we are the Skyline Squadron, and we only drive Skylines in this or any other competition. We're not a general Nissan team.

Any confirmation on a start date for the First Round with the JGTC cars?

umm well for one, i never sed the car cant touch the RZ. i know on the right track the car is faster, but on the RING.... it cant handle turns like an RZ, and 80MPH and up your car cant keep up with mine. eazy as that. i have no prob with telling some one there car is faster than mine, wen the car is really faster. but the R34 is not, ya on 1 or 2 tracks you can get me but you have to make me drop lower than 50MPH for at lest 40% of the track to beat my supra with a GT-R. i dont want to sound like an ass man, but i've done all the testing i need. the supra is a faster car than the GT-R.
 
Well, I'm gone for a week now, visiting my family in Belgium so we could start next Monday (not the Monday which is coming!) so we can start the JGTC race here:


-3 drivers; team leader + 2 drivers
-confirmation will be done with screenshots or whatever.
-we can discuss the other rounds later.


Have a good Easter y'all;



Pink,
 
Allright.. If you are so certain, put your magnificent 900bhp+ Supra on the 'ring on R3's and let us know the time. Then some of us will send best time in R34. I think we could do that as our amusement before going to the serious stuff.

Yes, PJDownshift.. it's ON! and send a picture of your time if you can, so there's smaller chance of cheating.

ground rules: R3 tyres, no R5's since they would be ridiculous in this kind of playful challenge.. any mods you like. <<<<{{{{{ EXCLUDING NOS!! send a pic of you driving on nurb so we can see if you have NOS on board or not. same rules apply on our chosen racer. powerful cars don't need chemical horses, they need a skillful driver.. }}}}}>>>>

and our driver will probably be either DE, Greycap, Electric or Viper.

will you accept this playful challenge?
 
that sounds interesting Leo, i'm curious if PJDownshift takes the challenge to support his theories above......

Here is something I'd like to say to PJDownshift: Watch what you're saying,'cause it may bounce back,and then you'll make a fool of yourself,NHF,and remember: What goes around,comes around....

Peace.

With all due respect,Wing No#5 of The Skyline Squadron, Electric.
 
I'm going to agree with Electric, and say that you might want to throw a few less challenges around if you're 'not going to push it,' Downshift :p

Let me know your best time at the Nordschleife, following Leo's rules :)

DE
 
o well your guys are ones who put out the challenge not me lol and on a setup made to run on R5's (makes the car into a D1 car wen you run R3s :P ) i gota 6'08 i car cud go a lot faster but i i'de need to retune for the slicker tires, and seeing as wer just playing around there no point in retuning :) oh, no nitrous :yuck: i'll get a pic if you need one but it's just a quick 2 lap run it's slow as hell i think the car can drop under 6min with the right setup :)

You said it yourself.

our game,our rules.

And stop behaving like you're in Fast and the Curious....i mean Furious,makes you sound lame IMHO.
 
yup.. go all out if you can with R3's. FYI, if that time with R5's is real, I can tell you already that GT-R is about equal, more or less.. :sly: and with R3's the difference should be wiped out.
 
As Electric points out, you just said we put the challenge down... So follow it's rules! :p If that's your time on R5s so far, well, I beat that on R3s. So try again :)

DE
 
the time was with R3s dude i was telling you the car is setup for R5s so it slides alot, on R5s i run times you dont need to know about untill it's time. and if all you can do is mach my time wen im not even pushing (at that drifting around the track like it's a D1 battle...) thers no point in retuning the car....
 
naw i dont give up :) but GT4 is the last thing im thinking about becus im sick of playing offline and toca 3 really isnt the best game ever. so im thinking about geting.... dare i say it :nervous: ..... an Xbox and forza :yuck: just becus i cud go b!tch slap "some cars" (ok so i cant stand skylines lol so sue me lol) with my dream car :drool: an AW11 with a 2JZ under the hood :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: and at that i have just picked up tourist trophy to add to my GT games, and befor i can be happy with puting the game down i need to beat it :lol:
 
You're heading offtopic, Downshift... :p

Let me know when you have a more grounded time... :)

DE
 
Wow, wait a minute dudes.


If y'all keep on like this, I'll blow off the whole challenge. This is for fun, not for arguing or such things.


Let's get back to business, OK?


I'll be back next week.


Pink,
 
Sorry Pink... I didn't want to get involved in trivial arguements like this, but I think it's pretty much dealt with now. As you said, let's get back to business guys.

DE
 
Welcome back, Pink.

Here's a detail we need to sort out - the points system.
I assume that each driver will be given a number of points for the position they finish, and then those points will be added up to give a total for each team?
If that results in a tie, then whichever team won more of the three events should win. (By this I mean add up how many times each team had a driver at the top of the ranking)
How about this for a points scheme...

1st - 10 points
2nd - 6 points
3rd - 4 points
4th - 3 points
5th - 2 points
6th - 1 point

DE
 
Just so that I have all this straight, if you'll excuse the formality...

Particular areas of concern at Suzuka Circuit - Do not run wide at the 130R corner, do not cut final chicane.

It is the team leader's responsibilty to ensure that all of the above rules and conditions are followed.


By the way, we're decided on two weeks being our preference for the running time. What about you guys?

EDIT - Just wondering, do the three drivers have to be the same three for every round? Yes, the team leaders must be in every round, but can the other two change freely? Or do we have to use the same team of three for all rounds?

DE
 
:confused: at lest one week a race?!?!?!?! that means at even one week a race it's going to take 3 weeks till i can reset my file 💡 how about if you guys really need 3 weeks, we can do this you guys get your fastest driver form the US, get him on xlink we race who ever wins getsa there team 10 points eazy as that. 👍
