Hi Jerome, just thought i would pop in say i havent forgot about this mate, my first outing in the RUF was comical, realised 2 things,

1)I cant drive on ice

2)I certainly cant drive a 425BHP Ruf on Ice!

I will submit a time sunday eve though im sure, i think your deadline is -8 hours for me so if its 6pm here its 10am there??

cheers and good start to series 👍

Dave

Good News:
I managed a clean 18.0 / 35.1 in historic forward, and it's less than a tenth off my dirty one :D

Bad News:
Along the way, I saw a 17.8 T1, and a 35.0 T2 (on different laps) which means there's still .300 or maybe more left :scared:

I think I'll move on the reverse and see if I can improve some there ...

I played around with some WRC class cars the other night, but couldn't find one that I wanted to run (I wanted to run either the Focus or the Escort). Forgive me if it's already been discussed, but why not run the WRC class with stock hp? Most of the cars are pretty evenly matched that way, and would be a blast to drive. Right now, only a couple of cars can get anywhere close to the 530hp limit, making the competitive choices pretty limited. I think the discrepancy will show up even more when we're not on snow ... just a thought :p
 
Hrm, I have a whole lot of work to do with the starion.

But I did succeed in getting Redline worked up over aim! :lol:

Unlimited 2wd:
Forward:
T1: 18.556
T2: 36.528

Reverse:

T2: 30.362
 
Ok, ok, ok :D I just couldn't stay away!

Those are truly some amazing times Luke 👍. I'm shooting for a 35.9 at T2 but I dont think I'll make it.

All Updates Boyz and Huniez.

Thanks for the kind words, guys :) I have to say a big thanks to Jerome, this is the most fun I've had with GT4 in ages 👍 👍 👍
 
Yeah, def thumbs up. 👍

I really need to try improving my WRC class times, but I feel like I am hitting a wall with that car.

The Subaru I took in Open 4WD is proving to be a huge disapointment, but the Startos is doing a lot better then I had expected very flickable if not lacking traction.

And I'm going to get you Max, the rotory shall prevail!
 
Redline: It's a welcome challenge. :) I just gotta trim up some slack in the reverse time and I should be darn near done with the DMC.

Now the starion on the other hand... I think I finally got it figured out for the reverse course. :)

Historic Reverse:
T1: 12.214
T2: 29.888
 
Glad to hear u guys are enjoying Stage I. I know I am, but tonight I need to grow a pair and ask a girl out to a work-related event tonight.... :nervous: :scared: One thing I DON'T miss about being single...fear of rejection...*OUCH*. But then again there's nothing quite like the blood rushing to your head now is it? LOL.

Just invite her over for a game of Gran Turismo, I'm sure that'll get her all randy. :sly:

LOL! Man I get so anxoius and nervous around gorgeous and intimidating women, I start to stutter when I talk and all that, not to mention my hear rate jumps as if I was ahead of hOt6o4bOi in a hotlap or something...lol. 3 hours 'til the 'deadline' or my window of opportunity is gone :scared:

So what happened, Jerome? :scared: Did you get the girl, or what?!
 
yeah, do tell!!!

oh, and i just wanted to say that i may not be competing this weekend due to homework and managing my V8 series. I should be ok for round 2 though.

sorry :guilty:
 
I got to hang out with her off and on last night, she had a bunch of friends with her so our time was limited, nothing big as she just got out of a long term relationship. But i did spend half the night playing blackjack with her mom (by supervisor's boss aka my bos' boss..lol) AND played craps with her step father and uncle as well :sly: 👍 . I had a few too many but her mom kept feeding me Corona's... :drool: :drool: :drool: What am I gonna do say no? NO! I"ll have to just play it cool until we discuss more on relationships; we touched on it a bit yesterday. But time will tell, she's the kind of girl that tends to get guys real easy, so I won't get my hopes up.

LB Updated

And if u guys think u may miss the deadline feel free to pm me your results early. And to save u guys time u can just list out the total times for each section (forward, reverse and total) i.e. --- jump_ace, WRC, Forward - 1:12.345 Reverse - 1:10.324 Total - 2:22.w/e the hell that is...lol. Or something like is fine. Later!

Well, good luck with your romantic endevours 👍

I've got an update for:

Historic Reverse
T1: 11.712 (pb: 11.4)
T2: 28.474

Looks good from the splits, but I overcooked it into the last corner, and lost 0.300 running too wide. I have a dirty 28.7 that's a tenth faster :( I might still try to improve it, but I don't think I'll ever match that middle sector. It took me almost 400km to get the lap I have :ouch:
 
Aww...I should have read about this/messed around on rally earlier. I hated rally a week ago, but I was :censored:ing around yesterday and had a ton of fun... :dopey: Interesting how FF and FR cars do not run much different. I ran a Camaro SS (new), 240RS road car, and a Taurus around Chamonix and the spread of times was only about 10 seconds, with the Camaro up front. I expect that to be caused by the road section, though.
 
Jerome,you could try "The Bosnian tehnique" with that girl of yours.

Go to that girl,and give her a long,passionate kiss. Either she will be all yours for next 20 years or she will give you a painful slap in the face.
Works for me.Sometimes,atleast.Just kidding,off course.

Anyway,I just noticed something weird on my CZ-3 tarmac rally car.
It's LSD rear settings,to be exact,are weird.Only thing I can change is the initial torque,and
it's maximum is 130,not the usual 60.I just wonder,would that DQ me from the race or ....?

I wrote it here,and didn't send PM so everyone can see the problem.
 
Electric.......

Or if that doesn't work I'll let you borrow my friends brick....er... "getting a date tool..." ehhh nevermind. Forget I said anything.

AS for rally.....crap. I never even got to run except for my original splits. Somewhere between cleaning for next week, work, school and running errands(yay I got my license finally!) I haven't had much time to run, plus my PS2 is giving me problems again. I might need to rig a cooling system for it because it keeps getting really hot(and thus freezing up games), it's hot even in standby mode.

When ever you're not playing PS2,turn it of on the main switch located on the back.
And clean your PS2 with a vacum cleaner every 2 weeks.
Helps me,might help you.
