[QUOTE = "smoothbore12, post: 12629855, miembro: 296303"] Ok .... me rindo debo poner fin aquí : lol:
Hiciste un excelente compañero de trabajo con varios autos, agradece a Mario. [/ QUOTE]
My friend was not easy to beat those cars with few performance points. every time it is more complicated,

 

[Uday9479]

incredible my friend, you really are "the last great master of the air" jejejeje .. I do not think I'll run again in that event, jejejee

Me too Mario. I've spent so much time on this event, I've neglected all other events. But this event is surely very satisfying to reach 400+ km/h. This being a night race still makes it better.

 

[bjl23]

Hey everyone
I've put up a poll about an event I'm designing and I can't come a decision about which car to use, so I'm throwing it to you guys.
Please cast your vote.

Thanks

 

[smoothbore12]

from what i saw in @mario ochoa vid he runs out of money in order to test varius cars in like the wind challenge .
My quess that was doable under 490pp was right again .
I vote for nascar car , i like them cant hide it , and they sound great.

 

[smoothbore12]

Since i give up for good the like the wind , i like to share a tip which i find during this process in order to much hp and pp with Hacks vid i think.
If you change oil you loose the maximum hp for the same pp but.......when you do this ,after a few trys in the event , hp and pp starts droping during the race , the more pp you have ,the more they drop .
Under 495 pp you gain 1-2 pp down from the original numper that you start and that doesn't stays forever .
You have 2-3 shots to get things going that way and is a matter of luck to win and also have the maximum drop from were you start.
Also you can put it a bit higher to gain an advantage in the start and end up lower .
Is not a big deal in such a low pp but when we are talking about 1 pp difference ,can seperate first from second place.
Of course you have to complete some runs in order to start loosin power and pp and thats need lot of time.
It was so addictive challenge this one thanks to @Racin510s ...... Shalom Barnavas .

PS
Don't know if Boogeyman ender to this , but if he did am curious what he can bring cause he has knowledge of the cars in gt6 , can't forget that small focus dominating in daytona over so powerful opponents .

 

[bjl23]

I still have nightmares about that damn FOCUS.

NO-TUNE / GTR update

My No-Tune Challenge & Great GTR entry (1.445):

My entry for the Max-Tune Challenge:

 

[skeagracing]

News from the Skeag Racing School. I have 2 videos so far and they look good but lot's of chances for one of you to win this Laguna Seca Race

 

[Uday9479]

My last attempt for the Max-Tune Challenge:

My last attempt for the Like the Wind challenge:
492PP

 

[skeagracing]

The first issue with some videos that I am getting at the SkeakRacing school is swapping camera angles as I asked for replay view only. When you kept swapping camera angles instead of staying in replay view it is hard to tell if there are more infractions. The whole focus of the SkeagRacing school is to teach “clean racing first” and that means not hitting or trading paint with other race cars. The reason for this is that in the real life of road racing any contact with another race car can turn into a “life or death situation”!! The reason why we started the SkeagRacing school was that some of you were running unrealistic fast lap times/total times that would never happen in the real world. Since we started the SkeagRacing school the over effect has been that lap time and total times now are “lower and more realistic”. The fast lap and total time is not as important but racing clean is. I started racing in 1967 and I lost many friends as a result of careless driving specially when passing another car. It is your responsibility if you are going to pass somebody that you do it clean so at the end of the day you don’t end up putting somebody in the hospital or more and you are able to go home to your love one’s. Owners of racing teams pay millions of dollars for race cars and they want their drivers to bring the race car in one piece at the end of the day.

Max tune challenge

4.48.720 - 3.56.550 = 52.170

And here my first good run where you can see also in rankings the fastest lap at that time.

View attachment 797868

I struggled with this one a lot. Very hard to stop the rear end sliding and still keeping speed

 

[smoothbore12]

Its all about the " lucky " shot
I stuggle a lot to , but get lucky messing with abs and traction control at 3 both.!!!!

Think I had mine set to, TC 2, ABS 1

 

[smoothbore12]

I try every compination you can think of

You will slide because of the sports hard tyre having less grip & because of the off-camber at the turn going on the small hill. I've reached my threshold with this event but I love this track so much! Will try other events.

R22 MAX TUNE CHALLENGE (3:51.760 >>> 52.174)

1:17.161 + 1:17.204 + 1:17.395 = 3:51.760

4:43.934 - 3:51.760 = 52.174

I gave a shoot to this challenge with my preferred Dino saving the replay just in case.
I don't think replay is really necessary since the arcade TT mode is able to grant clean laps.
Please let me know about this issue.

Ciao

PS: no NOS

 

[smoothbore12]

You don't have to save a replay for this Gladiator , TT is always a clean lap ,Nos is another story but in Emperor we trust
But i don't think is enough to win this

 

[lfm58]

Thanks @smoothbore12.
NOS on this classic car should be a serious sin and in any case could be double-checked by replay.
I'm aware we must much faster for winning but this is the funny part of the challenge… <I can still drive just for short sessions but 3 fast laps could be scored…

Great GTR escape:

Damn ...... That was fast .
Just save the vid cause you're close to win div2 ( i quees)

@lfm58 you are right about nos on such a car ...... Serious sin and Whats the point ?

 

[skeagracing]

Damn ...... That was fast .
Just save the vid cause you're close to win div2 ( i quees)

@lfm58 you are right about nos on such a car ...... Serious sin and Whats the point ?

There should have never been an NOS option in any Grand Turismo, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! NOS is a joke in road racing and has never been an option in road racing, period!!!!!!!!!

 

[smoothbore12]

Having a morning chat with @bjl23 and after pass him in the KO , just inspired me to give a last shot in like the wind.
The outcome is my best race there and i believe is worth to watch
Its was very enjoyable to the last fractions of the second ,if you see the time at 3.40 still was in tenth place.
