1'40.638 - 04 EVO MR w/ all mods except NOS and AYC.

what a fun car and track!!

 

1'39.542 no AYC no NAWS

 

 

I guess it's time to play again. Maybe I should just buy an 04 EVO MR.

 

maybe... 1'39.234

 

1'38.954 no AYC no NAWS

 

 

1'38.623 no ayc no naws

 

One word:

Infuckingsane.

 

ok guys... I had to make an adjustment to my above time. Since it was in GT mode I forgot a couple of things - namely, TCS and ASM. TCS was on 7 and ASM was at 10,10.

So I had to change those down to 0 and that changed the grip of the car tremendously - the car understeered like hell. So I had to go in and do some suspension adjustments, and finally after several laps with the new setup I got it down to 1'38.859 no ayc, no naws. But, I'm still racing.

 

umm... we can adjust settings, right?

 

ok I went back in to settings and changed to Setting B, which reset everything. I chose all the mods again (no naws or ayc), and left the suspension stock. Set TCS and ASM all to 0. Set Transmission to 15. Set Front and Rear downforce to max. Those are the only things I changed, and for some reason the car is faster now... it has 573hp - it had 578hp before...

 

well the car seems faster but it is harder to control...

best time is 1'38.739 no ayc no naws

there is still more room but I think what feels like close to 30 laps is enough for one day

 

will you guys h8 me if I use naws? and why is it 5am?

 

so I got some serious sleep... I mean really.

tried again tonight.. after 3 laps, ran a 1'37.848 w/ no ayc, no naws, stock suspension, max downforce f/r

sleep is a good thing.

a couple pics:

Stock suspension? Interesting...

Gotta try that out tonight.

 

Stock suspension you say, maybe i will see about that, i keep coming in the 1'39 range then i throw the controller and walk away. i need some adjustments to my evo perhaps.

 

i'm bored today, maybe if i feel like it i'll take a stab at this time trail and post a time.

 

I should've tried it yesterday. But I spent 4 hours on NFS: Most Wanted instead.

 

Too busy with NBA 2k6 to race. I'm in the playoffs.

 

sorry. just to be clearer - it is the full customizable suspension at it's stock (default) settings.

 

Why didn't you tell us earlier???????????

My new time: 1'42.566

I will try the full customize one on default next time.

 

I said full mods fool - full mods means everything including suspension - then when I said I reset it to stock I meant I reset the full race suspension to stock settings. I only told you now because I only realized now that you thought I meant something else.

don't worry, you still have 5 days.

I've put in about 35 laps total so far. I think I'm gonna get a video capture device tonight so I can upload a video of the run I've been putting off getting one for a while now.

 

and oh yeah, the rules say "any mods allowed" - so you should have known to use the full customizable suspension... is it my fault you didn't?

 

Whatever. Now hurry and upload your goddamn video replay.

 

easy man, just giving you some sheit. ;0

video imminent, if this damn software install ever finishes... I swear its been about an hour... wtf. I think my DVD-ROM is on its "last leg"....

 

ok here it is, don't hate on the quality.. these BS ppl have it so if you want better quality, you have to buy an MPEG2 encoder from em.... this will have to do for now..

video - 37mb

as you can see it was not a perfect run...

 

damn man you have the time but atleast my shit looks smooth haha. J/k

 

call it style

 

So, what's next, srika?

 

how about.... RUF CTR Yellow Bird @ Autumn Ring?

you win the Yellow Bird in the "Boxer Spirit" event.

 

Autumn Ring? Shit, I am gonna lose this one.

Mod or no mod?

 

no mods... you don't like Autumn Ring? I think it's a hell of a track... and very fun to drive.

and, we haven't done it before.

 

Its a one hell of a track. I'm just not good at it.

But anyway, I'm ready to race.

 

What tires? Can we make it Racing Medium???

Let's put it up, I'm ready to take back the top spot.

 

yea Racing Medium is good. ok it's up.

and, I was expecting you to get back in the top spot for this last one...

 

btw before y'all complain - yes I am aware that the Yellow Bird is not the easiest car to drive. It will take some calculated driving to get the most out of it.

 

so I was really curious how this car would do... I had to take it out tonight itself.. the first lap was discouraging but after I got accustomed to this car's weird feel it wasn't too bad... racing with all aids off. First lap was a 1'32, now I'm running 1'26s after about 6 laps... this car loves to drift!!

 

1'25.387

btw I'm racing in Arcade Mode, Time Trial, 463hp.

 

Are you sure you're using Racing Medium (R3) tires??? My times, so far, have been under 1'20s.
