DRIVERS

Too many Brits.
Too many Yanks.
Unusual number of Danes.
Need more Brazilians.
Need more Fins.
No Germans. I guess they're still celebrating Vettel's championship

@ Boltz - Vagabone quit the last lap. Nycrom qualified alone when everyone left.

Ah. Thanks for the clear-up.

 

[guillermo968]

Was much more fun to qualify this way.
I was very conservative and it showed. But i know I'm faster, and I hope I will stay in the show!

Take off the Asteriks.

 

[OwensRacing]

Got my testing done, the EPSON NSX, all though a nice driver just lacks power at 498 broke in completely with oil changes.

I am gonna have to stick with the Nismo Z. I just do well with it.

hahaaaaaaaa

 

[Imari]

Is anyone using any of the new GT300s this week? I'm strongly considering the Garaiya '03 and it's awesome tyres, it's like the Garaiya '08 but with less sudden-massive-oversteer.

 

[Masi_23]

Double Post*

 

[Masi_23]

@ Ramo - "...Danny Dildo and the Wankers playin Summer of 69 on a club..."



@ Imari - there were 3 Celicas in today's session. Aderrrm was one of them.

@ Owens - another red car? If anyone wants a blue car, i have a Woodone GTR im willing to giveaway

 

[takl23]

Does the Celica only show up in the UCD? I've never seen one...

Great runs today everyone. Make setup needs work....

 

[Masi_23]

All standard cars only show up in UCD, so yes.

 

[OwensRacing]

SAaly, I have a Red GTR that is broke in and ready for testing as well the Greenish Lexus. I just love the Nismo Z.

 

[Masi_23]

Random.

Here's a cool cockpit. F1 style position.

(Bob Earl Racing Virtual Racing Cockpit)

I tried to copy it with limited resources (about a year ago). And here is what my hands
came up with. Spare metals from my Uncle's shop. The pedals rests on CF plates

I'll be starting a new one this year after the semester (18 weeks). Mainly based
off the measurements of my BMW. I wonder how everyone's rig looks like. I'm
currently using my work desk (PC) with an unstable office chair. I think its
affecting my lap times (excuses).

 

[crox]

My cockpit is F1 style, cheap, and very solid and simple. Will post photos & info.

 

[Masi_23]

Btw, two cars added to GT300 (pending approval).

Lexus IS200 GT-1 Race car '04
Mazda Atenza Touring Car '02

 

[takl23]

I LOVE that Lexus...it'll be tempting to switch before the season starts b/c I love the Subi as well....

 

[crox]

The Touring car should be quite a bit faster than GT300 cars.

 

[Masi_23]

Anyone care to test? I don't have any of the standard cars...

 

[crox]

I'd like to see the suite of available cars expanded, but recommend we test these cars before letting them in. Especially cars not from GT300 class, such as the Lexus and Mazda.

 

[takl23]

I'll test the lexus tomorrow. I've never run it around Monza, I'm guessing it'll be a good fit for the gt300 class.

 

[Masi_23]

By the way, can anyone lend me a duplicate of all the new cars being added? It's a pain to find them in UCD.

I'm planning on creating thumbnails of all the cars and put them on the front page.

EDIT:

GT300 cars approved and pending approval.

*new* Nissan C-WEST RAZO SILVIA (JGTC) '01

Lexus IS200 GT-1 Race car '04
Mazda Atenza Touring Car '02
Toyota Weds Sport Celica 03'
Toyota APEX MR-S '00
Autobacs ARTA Garaiya '03
Subaru Cusco Dunlop '03

 

[Imari]

I'm looking for the Atenza and Silvia now. Once I get them I'll send you some dupes for testing.

Edit: Preliminary results - that Lexus IS200 is SLOOOOOW. Like, a good 5 seconds slower than anything else around Monza in stock form.

 

[Masi_23]

Any upgrades worth considering? Turbos?

I wouldn't be surprised if that's the only Euro car that's even viable.

Dear PD,

Give us a GT2 spec 430, a set of air restrictors and some sandbags already, you bastards.

Signed lovingly,

Imari

 

[Masi_23]

Would love the 430. I wouldn't even mind if its a standard.

Also these:

Cool. I'm the old man in this crowd, but I had the benefit to been young when Punk Rock really happened in the end 70s. Was a Punkrocker myself (not playing). Was at a Ramones play in 1977?. Brutal. The music was so distorted loud you couldn't even recognize a single song and there was so much spit in the air that the guys at the front got soaking wet. I might sound like the old guy now, but I wasn't at the time.

Being a punkrocker and later scateboarder I was the odd guy at my university, the Royal Institute of Technology. But I always been fast so I graduated in record time.

Brings back nice memories.

 

[Paginas1]

i think i have the Atezna tourning car in my garage, i will have a look later and give it a quick test around monza (stock) il post time (if someone doesnt beat me to it)

 

[maSonn09]

Sign ups still open to whichever season?
