THE CHALLENGE HUB, CHALLENGE COMPLETE

[nostradavor2]

Turns out it's hard to keep normal car on track after driving Red Bull things

Is if not doing Bspec 124.000Cr on Trial Mountain in RBX2014 in 2:40ish time fastest to grind in GT6? I was disappointed game doesn't give you Crs for actually winning the championship

The full championship is the best for money I only realised this a few months ago nearly 1million A spec. Also the mission event short shifting is far faster than full revs:tup:

[Thematic]

@smoothbore12 Huh. I hope for a serene recovery.

49./Knockouts QFY
1:02.339

73 km more with two improvements (in absolute terms of about the same size). After the first sub 1:03 I imagined I could have a 2 second gap to the "gold" target, so a little surprise, there.

 

[bjl23]

Since we are in a new year and a new decade I have decided to make a few changes to the challenge hub.

The NO-TUNE challenge will be run on a 3 round cycle, like so:

1ST ROUND OF THE CYCLE:
(STREET CAR ROUND)

Venue: any career mode race or single player race in arcade mode

Vehicle: any street car that has not been already used.

Tyres: any comfort or sports tyre

Rules/Assists/Tunes: standard NO-TUNE rules apply

2ND ROUND OF THE CYCLE:
(RACE CAR ROUND)

Venue: any career mode race or single player race in arcade mode

Vehicle: any race car, that has not been already used, this includes rally cars.

Tyres: any racing, dirt, snow or rain tyre

Rules/Assists/Tunes: standard NO-TUNE rules apply

3RD ROUND OF THE CYCLE:
(TT ROUND - Courtesy Edition)

Venue: any track in TT mode

Vehicle: any car from the courtesy list that has not been already used.

Tyres:
Street cars,
399pp or less = CS
400pp to 499pp = SH
500pp to 599pp = SM
600pp or more = SS
All race cars = RH / dirt / snow / rain

Rules/Assists/Tunes: standard NO-TUNE rules apply

ALL ROUNDS ARE OPEN FOR 2 WEEKS

And what a great round to start this on, ROUND 50!

The MGF challenge will come to an end this round and I'm going to shuffle some of the first 5 posts around and add the TROPHY ROOM to post 5 instead of being a PM.

The next MISSION will be the last. Then we will head to GOODWOOD.

 

[smoothbore12]

Thanks all for the support , while i should be at work right now ,am home sitting awkward and not for too long.
The night was fricky and need to grab from something to straight my body and move my feet.
Am starting to freaking out since i need to fight to get up the toilet seat ....
Can't stand long in a chair and i feel my upper body weight a ton .
Please send your vids to Noel to stop whining like me ...... I hope to send mine before the time ends .
Nice mission time @Thematic , very tricky part the first pass at eau rouge from what i remember.

See you guys ,am going to bed slowly slowly ....... Like a zombie.

 

[nostradavor2]

Great format Bryce.. Looking forward to replace missions with Goodwood..

Smooth, easy, don't worry. Start moving when you'll feel little bit better.. Also sitting is by far worst of all positions to be in..


ps I didn't know what to. vote in the poll so I put 3..but if it's tie don't count my vote, Im ok with al 3 options if guys wants to play, Im here..

also Bryce how do you put a link in sig but to show what you write not the link itself? I want to put my Suzuka run, am kind of proud of it because I did it "only" 9 years after game was released

another edit... OMG the hats are gone

 

[skeagracing]

Surely I'll give this whole thing a try at some point. Granted I consider my skills to be average at best, but as long as I have fun with it, I don't care.
As of right now, I can't really do anything as I have no means of taking any pictures at all (not even a phone), so it will have to wait a month or two at least, but I'm looking forward to continue enjoying GT6 even now, since I've finished the career mode.

Welcome to the challenge hub, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Even though you don't have a phone, do some of the events and let us know how you go.

Welcome to our " old school" company new mate.
Feel free to join us and have no concerns about how fast or good you are to take part in our gt6 journey.
Choose what you like to participate and have fun .
The photos is the less we need but as. @bjl23 wrote you can write your progress if you don't own a phone to shoot a pick and upload it.
I also don't own a new era phone plus i hate them since my fat fingers wake up the frustrating factor inside me ,but i use a tab for everything and works nice for me.
Happy 2020 mate .

Hello and welcome! I don't think we've had someone from Brazil here also Looking forward to you racing with us. Also I saw your post in other thread, if you are big GT fan, don't skip GT5 but be prepared to get frustrated by it

 

[CozmicDragon]

Thank you for the support, I appreciate it!

Since the No Tune challenge is basically the only thing I can do for now, I gave that one a try. Bought the '85 FC RX7 as I didn't use one in the career mode, gave it an oil change and some better looking rims, and took to the track.

Did a first run as a benchmark on Comfort Softs. Surprisingly, the FC is very fast around corners, which compensates for its power deficit. Getting owned by cars with twice the amount of HP on the straights is not fun, but Trial Mountain has hardly any, which the FC enjoys a lot. Unfortunately, I came 2nd on this one, as the DB9 got me over the line and beat me by 0.088s!

Switched to Sports Hard tires for the next run, and found myself having a much easier time getting rid of traffic. By the start of Lap 2, I was already in 3rd, behind the lead Mercedes and Aston Martin cars. They're fast, but also very heavy and slow around corners, so the RX7 just destroys them any time we come to turn 5 or turn 8 after the big straight. With this, I manage to win more comfortably.

After a few more runs, my best time was a 7:11.672. I can probably get a better time if I can just get more consistent lap times in (and get a bit more lucky with traffic, as I had qute a bit of problems with AI cars blocking me off in turn 11), but for now, my right hand is a bit sore. I need some rest first.

 

[smoothbore12]

Well done @CozmicDragon , you're in a good way .
If is not a promplem ,tell us where you are living and how many times you heard singing the happy birthday to you..... for you .

You really follow Tinkerbell's motto ........

 

[CozmicDragon]

Did a few more No Tune runs just now. Winning the this time around was a bit harder, as the GT-R showed up and was always right behind me. At one point we had a photo finish, with me just edging out the red R35 for the win by only 0.024s!

After another four or five tries, I got a much more consistent run in, got past the GT-R earlier than usual, and ended up with a time of 7:08.647. This was by far my best run, and I don't think I'll be able to improve on this time, but I might do some more runs tonight.

 

[bjl23]

Nice racing @CozmicDragon , I love the details you put into your posts.

PS, This current round ends in 3 hours.

I will repeat amazing ending to your race. Wishing it had been me good buddy!!

 

[nostradavor2]

@skeagracing Haha I liked it too, watched it few times. There's also a picture on last page I made, can't copy it now for some reason, take a look. Shame that Citroen and Ford bumped into each other when I went to overtake them on outside. It would be perfect 4 car finish otherwise. While I was driving I also kind of hoped Viper and C5 Vette maybe will catch up and use slipstream (Viper was close for some time) and thought 6 cars would be insanity but it didn't happen.

Noel if you ever come to Europe let me know, I'd come to any track to have a lap with you.. promise

You gave me ton of homework at the racing school as what you said is very important to your race and others. I will be back with my report!!
