206 out to pasture. :( sniff, sniff.

:D :D Now that's done. Lets roll on round 2.


:banghead: I do not like this track. I just can't seem to run it so maybe it is time to pull out the worst car of the series. Time to do a bit of testing.

Good Luck Everyone!:)
 
New car, Better times: T2-39.4 on lap 2.
Keep finding better lines.
One car of three contenders tested. Had to quit for the nite.
Living room full of little girls:eek: (Adventures in babysitting)
Had to give up the TV for "Winnie the Pooh."
 
38.19 something. I wish the gtf was up so i could check on the possum bourne tribute race, i don't remember my t2 from the time i posted.
 
Holy crap. I thought I had a great save already until I went over there and looked at those times:eek: I've got alot of work to do, I don't know any of these tracks very well except for Tahiti Maze I and Swiss Alps I from the Time Trials challenge. I'm gonna be working on this all week now, here i thought I was done:rolleyes: :lol:
 
btw the times on the possum challenge where all run in the Subaru non proto Rally car :D

Plenty cars with a bit more grunt than that ;)

So which ones are faster the Protos or non-protos, just out of curiosity? I also know of 2 cars that are faster than old blue but I'm saving them 4 lata...;)
 
The Proto is faster at re-gaining speed from low gears and the normal Suby can stall in 2nd on tight turns , IMO thats what gives it the edge over the normal version :p
 
free run so far best t2 38.2xx
best t3 1.01.9xx

they were different cars though
i still have some more cars to test out too:D
 
Ok guys i'm giving a Ghost drivers position to a great Rallier who was unable to make race 1 .
He will recieve no points for running as a Ghost! but he will get the weekly ranking that he places in 👍 No others drivers points will be affected by this tiny rule bending exercise :D

Welcome aboard Hsh :cool: ..... A pleasure as always man ;)
 
has my first test session w/ this earlier. Saw t2 times of around 38.5...not bad for starters i guess...so far ive only tested 3 cars, and each one pulled almost identical times, it was quite surprising...its gonna be hard to choose which one to use....tho this track really isnt as technical as tahiti maze, so really any car has a farily equal chance as long as long as you take the right lines at the right speeds

::EDIT:: well before my nyquil kicked in i think i narrowed it down to 2 possibles, i still have to do a little bit more testing but i think these will get the best results. Best save i have right now has a 38.5, but i have been down to 38.3. Overall however all the sectors are pretty good, which makes for a good lap time....if i can pull together another 38.3 w/ a good lap i'll be in for a nice lap time. Im done for tonight however, but i like the progress ive made so far, hopefully i can keep it up
 
Here's a chance for me to try my new steering wheel out :D
Be back later with some sectors off it:tup:

Laters:D
 
Ok spent one hour on my new wheel and got a sector T2 38.579:D not to sure about the car but pleanty more to choose from hope to have a good time in this week ;)



Laters
 
Congrats on the new wheel Wes 👍


I was waiting to build a new platform for my Momo before i ran some laps here ..........

..... well I finished it tonight ;) :cool:

had a good 90 min session and the wheel feels great in its new location , here's some sectors from my best save .......

lap 1 .... T3 1.06.186

lap 2 .... T2 37,739

only tried 2 cars and this ones a keeper :D

been in the 1.05's T1 lap 1 so i can see a nice improvement overall :)

Keep the sectors coming guys and Good luck 👍

;) 👍
 
No worries there ron i will have a new wheel tomorrow man 👍
Then i will be getting dirty;)
 
ojk T .... I make sure i'm in 6th gear before the turn 1 and drop to 4th and keep the tyres as straight as possible while negotiating the bend , 1 stab of brake .. drop to 4th and then its full power and slide into the bend in the best way possible whilst maintaining good speed
;)
 
you drop to 4th from 4th? i'm in the same gear, but i turn in wide near the yellow overhead signs and take the turn at 75-80.

Just curious, which one of us are you correcting?:p

How wide do you take it?
 
I love the way this whole track just flows....the first and last turns are definently the most important turns on this track tho. especially the first one, it sets your pace for rest of the lap....and is somthing im still trying to work out. If i can find that magic line i should be in for some good times
