Thanks DE :) 👍

i thought about a glitch ... because i've similar problems in my job :sick:!


ciao
I-Runner
 
I note how Masterstorm mocks me so. First he takes my 2D record, then my Sauber record. And now he tries to edge in on my Esprit action! Ah, not so fast there, however. I've already taken them back. Esprit dominace belongs to me! Ha ha ha!
Lotus Esprit V8 GT: 304.26 MPH.

Lotus Esprit V8 '02: A very rev limited 310.42 MPH. i'm going for 311.

 
Congrats Toronado ... 310.4x ... very very good 👍

yesterday i made 309.xx (previous 306.xx) .... with the same car

I've improved the speeds with the others esprit too .. :)

C'est correct, DE. Bon effort! Je viens par derri&#232;re:sly:. Est-ce vous &#233;tudier le fran&#231;ais? Ou, est-ce vous utilisez <'Google'>?:D

Well done MasterStorm, I-Runner, Toronado & Bluedot, possibly Viper as well, I can't remember!👍

C'est la Vie:(:(:(:(:(...

je n'ai faire pas des nouvelle velocite FormulaGT, but thanks for your congrats anyway. i have learned french for four years if you're interested......

nice new speeds Toronado 👍

viper
 
Bon! Génial! Fantastique!

Juste quelques erreurs, (sometimes I go a bit over the top, but why not?): je n'ai faire pas des nouvelle velocite = je n'ai pas (negative goes with the first verb, avoir) faire des nouvelles (plural so remeber the 's') & vélocitées (plural). I'm a perfectionist (:scared: & :crazy:), just thought I'd help:tup: :)

I just got to 366.82, saved the replay, but I didn't record it:dunce: &:mad:-🤬. Exactly what I did last time.

I'll get them back, I only did 4 test track runs with each... ;)

And uh... you did not have the Sauber C9 record, sucahyo did (according to the leaderboard).

I have a new car for the leader board, just need to convert/upload the video before I tell what it is. It's one that's been mentioned before but not (to my knowledge) taken past 300 yet. This was probably my easiest tune yet, as I literally just tuned it blind (I had never driven the car before this), then went on the test track and hit 301.40mph first time. I then did a second run with no modifications and held gear round the corner, this time reaching 302.49mph.

Also, can we have less of the french... I don't understand 95% of it! :(

Merci, et j'ai &#233;tudi&#233; le fran&#231;ais pour quatre ans (et j'&#233;tudierai pour quatre ans dans le futur!), je ne utilise pas 'Google'! :) O&#249; avez-vous appris le fran&#231;ais?

Nice going MasterStorm, and I look forward to that video I-Runner! 👍

I'd like to be "king for a day" .... only, if tomorrow someone
breaks my speed record ..don't worry .. :sly:

I'm happy to have found Your topic and the other "SPEED SPECIALISTS" 👍


MasterStorm
Good work on the road car record I-Runner, good video too! :D

Thanks Master and thanks from "Pino-R" (a member of the Board where i'm Co-Admin) also .. he's accepted to make the video !


viperpilot
that's a real achievement.........i expect you to use a 6.2mile edtion I-runner?

viper

Yes viper, my 3000GT ...it's a 6.2mile edition ... 913hp ...:O

i've tested the '98 version ...only 322 mph ..for the moment!!

Ciao
I-Runner
 
It appears only one time in 700 days !

the 327mph 3000GT is a "new" 6.2miles .. and with different gear ratio from the first
3000GT i've tested before (324 & 325.68)

and with this setup .. B-Spec wins (easily) the like the wind.. 200ASpec :nervous:

In my opinion more than 327 is possible 👍

Ciao

the Grinch
As did I, likewise. Besides, the '02 smacked the rev limiter very hard in that run.
Which is a nice way of saying that, if someone beats him, all he has to do is nudge the final drive (or 6th if it's not as wide as it'll go) three clicks wider and he's got the record again :p :lol:

So go get it! 👍

You know, something has always bothered me about the Esprit in relation to the 3000GT: If the physics engine wasn't so crap, the Esprit would take the faster speed by far. This is similar to the GT-R as well. The Esprit V8 '02 does 286 MPH without NOS. The Sport 350 does 290 MPH. The 3000GT? Struggles to get 275. It's very odd how the downforce on the 3KGT messes with the physics engine.

Interesting thoughts. I wonder how aerodynamically different one car is from the other at those speeds though, and how well GT4 models it. :)
