Haha. Got to laugh at the title for this weeks race. Good luck all, I wont participate, just popped in with a :lol:.
 
Aww, crap. Where can I get this "Big Ugly Car" then ?

BTW, where's the Week97 results ?
 
Broken in and with oil my Lister is at 623hp.

There's a "Exhaust and Air Cleaner/Racing" installed. I can't uninstall it. Is the Lister Storm born with that? :confused:

Took a few spins. Seems like a pretty fun combo. :D
 
Nice combo Kent 👍. Now I just have to learn Laguna again, havn't raced that track in ages.
 
The Lister is a gorgeous car!
 
With hybrid supershine, I actually think it looks quite nice also :sly:.
 
Nice combo, Kent 👍 . Much better than last week :lol:

Now see if I can get this car to do what I want him to do...
 
Hey all, results will be up shortly. :D

Also, you can buy the lister if you want... it's in the UK section. ;)

Oh and another thing.

Yes NielsG,
The lister has the racing exhaust already on it, but then again, so do all of the other race cars. 👍

I ran this combo last night at 3am after a day & night of drinking.
No sectors yet, but it seemed like fun once I got a little settings work done. :D
 
19.573
36.153
54.969

I've only done 5 laps.
Seems like settings will be very important for this race..

Like I said dude :D

I ran last night at about 3/3:30 am, suprisingly it was a great little bit of fun trying to figure out what needed to be done.

And well, the one thing I figured out...
Settings are important this week.

Now, this might not help every one or any one for that matter, but I still think it's worth putting down.

If any of you all try that please let me know what you think and let me know if you can improve them.

19.720/36.568/55.287 clean but still plenty for me to take off.

Just wanted to know what the BHP of the Lister should be??? The Lister I have is 900BHP approx. Is this right??


Nop it's 623hp if i remember well (around 600 anyway)...

You only had to put T8 tyres and no hp changes. ;)
 
Tannis is right.
No other modifications are allowed so please go read the first post again.

Also,
I just did a few more laps and you guys can pretty much scrap those worthless settings lol.

I used them as the base, but changed a few things.

Should be interesting once I get that 623hp :drools:

That's what I did. I think I will just buy the car again from the UK section and start again. Cheers...👍

Well, the lister is no match against the "living" legend. The Volvo 360

360glt_1.jpg

Wow, look at those smooooth lines *dreams*.

Ok, back to reality: I'll have to pimpmobile together a couple of g's to buy this storm of speed. *nyuuk nyuuk*
 
Just drove a long session of 150 km's. Need to break in my Lovely Lister :drool:

The car handles really nice and has enough power at any rpm :dopey: .

Didn't write down my settings, but can remember them pretty well:

4.0 / 14.0
58 / 62
10 / 9
10 / 10
1.6 / 0.8 (something like that)
0 / 0
6 / 6
12 / 10
5 / 40 / 12
tranny gears
1.00 / 1.06
no ASM/TCS

Splits: 19.455 / 35.976 / 54.390

Now need another 150 km's :dopey:
 
19.9/36.649/55.655

Tried my own settings, but then I switched to Kents, did a few tweaks to my personal preference, and ran those times. Car is running at around 595hp right now, waiting to break the engine in.

And Kent, don't you think a 44.7 t3 is a bit fast, even for you? ;)

For some odd reason the 340 is even uglier. :lol:
 
My Storm is already broken in from one of Bobs Multilappers. :bowdown:

After first session:

19.876
36.844
56.031

Great combo. Very fun racing. 👍
 
:lol:

If you guys know one thing about me, it is that I am always 10 full seconds ahead of what would be expected. :rolleyes: :lol:

Yes, 54.7 is right lol.

Well...
That's about it fellas.

Keep working on the race and good luck. :D

btw, some one asked if I was starting to like the Lister...

Actually I've always liked it.
Problem for me is that it just doesn't seem to fit into the game anywhere.
The Nomad Diablo would be perfect competition for it but oh well. :(

I need this car too.
Yeah, "need" is the right word.
Nobody deserves this car, only WRSers need it because it has been elected as the compulsory POS for this week.
(First time ever in the WRS if I remember well Famine's stats.)

I've been submitting poor times over the past weeks, while we were using combos that I liked (both cars and tracks) : I wonder how bad I can be on my most disliked track in such a car ;)
 
19.724/36.534/55.451

Running at just under 600hp. And I have no idea what everyone has against this car. I love it!
 
Lovely week Kent, I had a Lister with t8`s, driven 80.2 km ready to race.


T1 19.607
T2 36.155
T3 54.676


:crazy: good Luck all
