Got ya.
Thanks for the tests!👍👍
That's why I removed it. Neither can I. All I know is that the parrot is now making that lovely chaise in the corner of the garage even more comfortable.
Same here I haz school tomorrow, and it's 10:25 over here nah, too early. 'night! But beware of the Guido he was promised victory, but ended up having to cut his cup in half he is disappoint. He does not like being disappoint
Going to be another 4 hours or so before I can fix all the links. Sorry work is killing me tonight.
THE PANDA SHOWDOWN
In no particular order -
krenkme
deep forest - 1:29.943
Trial Mountain - 1:41.609
The suspension set-up makes for a bit of a wild and bouncy ride, and there is a bit of understeer that cant be accelerated away. I did run out of go on both tracks, but only right at the end of the longest straights. Theres a lot of work involved in the short gearing. A lot of fun though. krenkme seems to have tried to turn a lunchbox into a go kart, and by god he nearly succeeded.

Deep Forest - 1:29.484
Trial Mountain - 1:40.505
Onboy seems to have discovered the magic cure for FF understeer. There is none until you really start coasting through corners (and lets face it, there wont be much of that with the Panda). Theres a lot of usable grip on a relatively smooth ride. The transmission is very user friendly as well.

Deep Forest - 1:29.578 1:29.012
Trial Mountain - 1:41.725 1:41.335
Understeer is prevalent in this one, and it seems to be killing the times at Trial. Its a pity, as the ride is overall better than the other two, and is more consistent. Very easy to fling at corners, rather than drive through, although the flip side is that its harder to point exactly where you need it to go for long complexes like the section after the first hairpin at Deep Forest. I even found a couple of short drifts at Trial.
In summation.
The outlaws seem to have turned the parrots into a nice fluffy couch pillow.

I got something cooking but don't have time to talk it out right now.

@frosty1 glad you liked the writeup, it was almost as fun to do as the car is to drive. Keep an eye on the tune for "Guido, Mafia HitBear" as I'll most likely make a few minor adjustments over the next couple of days.
Okay guys we had fun with the Panda Battle here, and the big F.I.T.T. events are great, so here's my idea.
I'm thinking of starting a new thread called "Tuner Wars". The idea is for stuff like this Panda Battle. One tuner or garage calls out another and they run a quick little down and dirty tune off. Sometimes it might be for requests like the Panda battle was. Sometimes it could be just whatever car/s grab a tuners attention. This wouldn't require the major planning the big F.I.T.T. events take and would be very quick to do. Also if we give it a separate thread of it's own, then others might be more likely to notice it and join in either with challenges of their own, or as participants. tris_73 did a great job testing on this but it would have been cool to have another tester or two (don't need shootout numbers of testers but getting more than one take on a tune is better.).
What do you all think about this idea?
Also for our next battle I propose a combination comparison/tune off between the Honda Beat Z and the Mazda AZ-1 Autozam. This is something krenkme and myself have talked about for some time but never actually gotten around to doing.
......... any ways )
Yea, go on then, make our victory an even larger one!would you mind if i took that panda for a run around the blok , i'm intrested to see what i can do with it
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!👎👎👎how about a GT-R battle
-I need to clean my wounds in my own garage
Don't know if I can show my face in the Cafe, I think those Pandas gave ME two black eyes
I like this Idea. This "battle" was very fun. Aside frome the big F.I.T.T. events this is a quick, fun, and a way to be involved with everyone from the forum. So on the part of Clueless Tunes, I think this is a great idea (just as long as those mean Outlaws leave me alone for awhile
And maybe with a battle we can finaly get to tuning those MR kei cars 👍
:
Okay I've linked all the recent tunes except a certain green parrots...erh I mean pandas. I'll leave that link to krinkme.
And just in case you all don't have enough ways to kill your time already I've got a challenge for ya.👍👍
First one to use the smileys to make a picture of a raindeer, like praiano's fish, gets the traidable car of their choice, 5 paints and 6 sets of gear.
Sorry no its not what I meant.
