Well done everyone, especially to @lfm58.
@lfm58 you can to chose the next car for ROUND 5.

Just so everyone knows, even if you aren't that fast in the NO-TUNE, entering the races qualifies you for future events in the INVITATIONALS. Which everyone has a chance to win as they are not all about how fast you are.

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE,

I'll be back soon with ROUND 4.​

 

Gone in 60 Seconds Movie Cars: 1st car: '69 Camaro Z/28. At least I don't have to go by any more cars. 2nd car 66 Shelby 427. I don't really know if I am doing this right or not.
Group 2, Abarth 500, Renault Megan 2.0.
Group 3, 71 Ferrari Dino 1:57 I did it!!!!

After 12 laps at Trial Mountain, and then running Gone in 60 Seconds I can't do no more. My hands and arms are pissed.

Edit: Just found out that I can run 550 PP. with all the groups. Now the fun begins

 

Yes you are doing it right, just got to get under 2 minutes. You can tune the cars.

 

I know I was not invited but had to see if I could do it. Twin Ring Motegi East Arcade mode Professional 4 laps. 10 + seconds behind in my Abarth 500 400 PP. I still won by 2 seconds. Hope you don't mind Bryce.

 

NO-TUNE
ROUND 4 IS UP.

VISION GRAN TURISMO special
Every 4th round of the NO-TUNE CHALLENGE, there will be an event using VISION GRAN TURISMO cars.

(just to spice things up a little) the cars that will be selected are VGT cars that can't be tuned.

They will be time trial events on tracks other than the ones in the POLYPHONY DIGITAL CUP.

After these events we will head back to the POLYPHONY DIGITAL CUP race 1. The winner from race 3 will still pick the next car for race 1, (after the VGT special round).

Forgot to post this in my post Half Marathon tiredness last night.
TRAFFIC JAMMING

I know it's too late but thought I'd post it anyway

 

NO-TUNE CHALLENGE ROUND 4, I can see someone on here to get close to a 1 minute time or just under.

 

I think someone will crack the 1 minute mark.

 

We have to just have to wait and see.

 

This is gladiators one of his favorite tracks ......
Anyway we do what we have to do .

Vision first entry with hopes to 1.02



D Papp
I try the rocket first time but wasn' t in the mood ,then i take the 350 and make his ass move a bit


Ps
This is one of the Gladiators favorite tracks .......

 

They are both in my top 3 favorite tracks to. The 3rd one is trial mountain.

 

What vgt Cars can we use?
What PP limit? Didnt notice it on the OP.

And isnt RS tyres a bit too much. But if you Guys say its fun to drive them, then lets do it

 

We are using the TOYOTA FT-1, it is on the OP. Under FEATURED VEHICLE.

The PP limit is the stock PP has we can't tune/upgrade the car. I picked racing soft tyres due to the fact it can't be policed.

 

Here's my pitiful attempt and Midfield. I'm losing so much time in the curve before the tunnel.
But here are 3 more of the Movie cars under 2:00. doubled one time.

 

Also losing time in that left corner before the tunnel, he throw me out and can't open the gas as early as i want.
I run TC 0 ABS 0 and BB 7-9 and still can't have the right turn in at that turn.
Must find the right approach , anyway all this have fun , the car and the track.

 

D. PAPP AWARD.
I could not find a car for this event so my good friend D.Papp said, I could use his spare Rocket '07 to race him in this event.

 

old friends help each other out I see.

 

NO-TUNE CHALLENGE ROUND 4, I can not see anyone getting well under 1 minute time, or I will eat my hat.

 

They might be some famous last words.

 

If you are using TC0 and I have been using TC4 then I don't know what to do. I know I am losing a minimum of 3 seconds in that turn. Bryce suggested I turn mine down, now I don't know what to do. I know the track very well, but for me the FT-1 understeers like a dump truck.

 

@Racin510s ......TC 0 help me with the understeer , with Racing softs is not an issue.

Sniper is to early to judge.......will eat your hat at the end.
Boogeyman and Gladiator are.......ante portas.

Papp when i use rocket stay untouched , seems you have unique relationship with him .

 

@smoothbore12 I haven't tried Papp yet. I was speaking of the FT-1. I have been lowering my TC 1 click at a time. For me with a DS3 and using the d-pad to steer it is hard to catch a car when the tail comes around. Most of the time I crash. I miss my DFGT more that I can say. I am having a blast at Gone in 60 Seconds right now. I'll get to Papp. I beat him when GT6 was still online so I'll beat him again.

 

And i was speaking about the FT1.... TC 0 is not issue.
Issue is the 2 low speed left turns to get the car in position to put pedal to the metal ASAP.
I ll try it later to see if i can ender the 1.02 mark.


Edit
Not much but at 1.02

 

Have you switched x and square for R2/L2? Helps that its easy to Control the input on throttle/brakes.

 

I use R1 for accel and R2 for braking, d-pad for steering with sensitivity set to 7. -2 for the chappy X and it is still hard to drive.

 

D.Papp huh........Hit the friggin wall 4 times and still dusted Papp. @nd run with Papp. 2 seconds and still screwed up. Once I get this car set up I bet I can get him by 10+ seconds.

Edit :Well Papp was 14 seconds behind this time. So am I to take my Cobra and push him till the last of the 3rd lap and them pass him?

 

This is all about how fast D. PAPP can go. The faster you go, the faster he goes.

 

OK so @smoothebore12 got Papp to go 4:01, then @fordlaser got him to fo 3:59.Mine was a 4:03. I'm just curious because I thought I had accomplished something worthwhile to all you faster than me people. I'm sure if @bjl23 or any of you took this car you would run 1:05 laps and how fast would Papp be?

Edit :so that puts fordy into 1st?

 

You got it mate.

You did a very nice time, faster than the other guys. All you need now if for D. PAPP to go faster with you.
Sometimes if you go to fast he will stop chasing you.

Try different cars he may react differently and chase you more.
