Wheee! just picked up my DFP! now for the next few days i'm gonna be more useless than ever! *demotes himself to div 4*

WOOO!

Division 4! Count me in! Maybe I could be a Top10 driver there, hehe.

TimBrad · May 21, 2005

lol, yep i was right, ran about 10 laps w/ my wheel, best was 14 seconds down on my DS2 time! LOL! Hope i dont decided to sell the wheel as i am £10K in debt! lol!

rotbarsch1979 · May 21, 2005

w00t?

14s... ouch. Well, I always wanted to have a DFP... I'd even pay you the tenner you're short.

TimBrad · May 21, 2005

lol, how kind

if you wanna pay the whole £10k make a cheque payable to....lol

TimBrad · May 21, 2005

I think the main df problem for me is right now, i live with parents, don't have a space where i could really set it up right, but had to have one to have a try, ya know what i mean? lol, anyways, if i sell it, i sell it, then when my gf & i get a place together i cna get a new one

lol, anyways, time will tell

rotbarsch1979 · May 21, 2005

I hear you, that's the main reason why I didn't get a wheel when I had the needed cash.

The st00pid table is way too low to set it up.

Hi guys, my name is Carl. I entered the WRS at wk6, which was probably the worst race for a n00b like me to enter and it was a complete nightmare for me, but it was a good challenge. I've been a huge fan of the GT series right from the beginning and I look forward to competing with you guys on a regular basis from now on. Just not sure why it took me so long to join in the fun! :cheers:

Kolyana · May 22, 2005

Welcome Solrac ... although with the times you're racking up, I suspect that you may be racing against the D2ers rather than us humble D3ers ....

TimBrad · May 22, 2005

Welcome solrac, if you check your rear view mirror hard enough you'll see me waving to you

bleurabbit7 · May 22, 2005

Welcome aboard solrac. You have some impressive times :drool:

so don't be surprised if you get bumped to Div2. Just don't forget about us little folks.

TimBrad · May 22, 2005

Roll on tuesday! if we get skylines again...i'll cry! I want something fun & easy! lol yay for '90 Vettes!!!!!

bleurabbit7 · May 22, 2005

I want to do a 'Hot Hatch' race. Mildly tuned. Not 500BHP like the Neon. Gawd that was very uncontrollable.

TimBrad · May 22, 2005

That would be fun, too

I'm sure we'll get something fun!

Teledriel · May 23, 2005

107 Racers strong here in our little corner of the world.

@Nat .. hope we don't have to "expand" past 100 drivers on our leaderboard. :crazy:

Welcome all new drivers to the Div 3 Pit Area. Make ya self at home, find friendly chatter on just about anything, and cool off after a long day of testing / racing.

Will be doing some testing today after work with 2 more cars, to see what I can do with them, but think my best so far with the V-Spec will prolly be the one I submit, even though the time after T2 can be improved, just havn't been able to get there again. Seems anytime I adjust something after my "baseline" tune, I do worse...... :yuck:

rotbarsch1979 · May 23, 2005

I pretty much gave up on trying to improve my crappy lap time for the week.

So lets show off our cars instead, hehe.

R34 M-Spec Nür '02
- Alfa DTM rims

Powered by the dark side, hehe.

TimBrad · May 23, 2005

lol, dont give up! you can do it!!!!!

Kolyana · May 23, 2005

No racing for me today ... I went to watch UNLEASHED with Jet Li (God, he's cute) and taking time off from the track tonight. Tomorrow I'm going to try a few tweaks to see if I can run a low 58 and fast finish, or maybe even a 57 (*gulp*)

@Teledriel ... don't forget to drop all the inactives ... I bet there are alot of them!

bleurabbit7 · May 23, 2005

Any ideas on what next week is going to have? I'm kinda anxious on what it is. I hope it's not another high powered tank. :crazy:

Kolyana · May 23, 2005

Bleu no idea ... I only knew about The Ring, because a few weeks prior CFM happened to mention his intentions ... but this is unusual!

rotbarsch1979 · May 23, 2005

Next week's challenge better be something like "Test Course" and the "Mercedes-Benz Benz Patent Motor Wagen '1886".

@TimBrad:
Fine then, one more try with holl01's latest setup, maybe that helps.

What's your T2, so that I've got something to battle and be all motivated etc.

SimRaceDriver · May 23, 2005

Well, I'm done for this weeks event...spent quite a few hours on this and just never got comfortable ...ended up running in the R34 GT-R V-Spec II Nür '02 and only being able to squeeze out a T1 of 31.393 & a T2 of 1'01.240! :grumpy:

Hope CFM has a rally event coming up sometime soon!

I see this coming soon also. Even though I like rally, for WRS, I gonna hate it, cause I seem to bump a wall most time on some corners. Not slam, but bump cause of the way I end up drifting though some.

Lemke · May 23, 2005

How was "Unleashed" Kolyana? I want to see it.
I can feel a rally event coming. Hopefully with the Lancia Stratos. I love that car!
The Skyline was fun but I want something different.

GOD I HOPE NOT!..

I'd rather see it in a Suby or the Peugot 206..or at least the Mitsu Evo....hell..even the Ford RC would be better then the Stratos...but hey...CFM has the final say!

I'll just keep my fingers crossed...

RedWolfRacer · May 23, 2005

I'd like to see a rally with a fully-tuned 1,000 + HP 3000GT/GTO. lol That'd be flippin awesome!

Well, that or an RUF with 4WD. That was my rally car of choice in GT3. Wouldn't think of it normally, but I was on an odd tangent that day.

Steve57 · May 23, 2005

Thats it for me this week submitting my time now, good luck to everyone. No improvement in my times :guilty:

, but tommorrow i pick up my replacemant DFP YEA! ready for next week 👍

I think my best T2 was about 59.560 but the one on my fastest lap yet was 1.240.000 so go figure! lol

Haha. I can see it now.
Time submitted: 2 Days, 16 Hours, 42 Minutes, 23.934 Seconds

And I did it 4 times. This is my fastest. :dopey:

UNLEASHED was *GOOD* ... the first 10 minutes are just BRUTAL ... as only Jet Li can be ... and I really liked his acting, funnily enough. I great film ... go watch it

Kolyana · May 23, 2005

Rally ... oh god ... I am *NO* good at rallying at all. Is there anyway to practice rallying in this game? Like some kind of freestyle driving that we're doing here (rather than a license test)?
