I see Max's idea is being put to the test now this week. . . Sweet job in getting this race together, I think I'll take the car with that MR layout. . . oh yeah, possibly the Honda this time too :lol:
 
When I saw all those NSX's I was like WOO HOO but then when I saw the Track I was like DOH but I guess I should of known from the title:D

Laterz
 
Nice choice Boom ,i had a feeling that you would pick on of the wet tracks for this weeks race,i can smell a supra dual in the works,remember full mod's :D :mischievous:..Im on it..mmm which NSX then :mischievous:

Guess what all my NSX's are Gubbed :lol: J.K all are raring to go..
 
Hi all, it looks like I picked a bad week to start racing with you guys when looking at the very challenging course we have to compete on but I'll give it a go.

One thing though, I'm not too experienced at OLR so I am a little unsure how I reach the required spec for each car. I mean, Honda Castrol Mugen NSX 667 BHP (NA-2)1.724 for example is the requirement but I can't seem to get to the correct BHP or the 1.724 ratio when setting up the car. Can someone help out this OLR newbie?

Well get the car eg. Honda Castrol Mugen NSX stock and buy the NA-Stage 2 upgrade for it :) it should work then.

Hi and welcome to GTP and of course the weekly races :) good to see another racer;)

About your question
select your chosen car and go to the tune shop and buy a stage 2 N/A tune and possibly change the oil this should bring the power up to 667Bhp..
If it dosn't check the distance driven if it's over 300K's then your car is gubbed i would suggest that you go win yourself a new one with 0 K's on the clock..

Or you can buy the Mugen NSX at the dealers,but remember at first the Bhp wont be at 667Bhp with the stage 2 installed ,there is a run in period normally 300K's for dealer bought cars,at first the stock version of the car will be at 473Bhp,Oil change will bring it up to 482Bhp,Stage 2 installed will bring it up to 647Bhp and the Power to weight ratio will be at 1.777 dont worry about those numbers once you run the car for 300k's you will reach the required Hp and P to W ratio..;)
Also when you buy a new car change the oil before you run it in .
Hope this helps :)

Cheers pedrodaman, That everything I needed to know. Thanks mate :)

No prob's dude

Remember if you're using a dealer bought car. save your game as soon as the cars BHP reaches 667Bhp this will save you having to start all over again

Sorry if i sound patronizing but it has caught me out a few times :banghead: :)

the amazing kreskin, whoever, predicts which nsx lotus will use.

Muuuuuuuuuuugeeen

Pedro: Got a few laps down best T2 save has a 45.2 have been a lot faster than this

??? t2:s first at 53 :confused: - a thought came up - hey it must be that i'm not using wets... f* stupid! ofcourse I was not on the reverse track..

/D
 
Do you get wets in GT3..? :confused: :odd:

Been down in the 44.8's but it's hard to keep it together..
Man this car is a joy to drive :D
 
No, the idea of wets was my first thought of why I was so far off your T2 Pedro until I got that I was not running SSR5W in reverse:lol:

/D
