I wouldn't mind joining some of these PH championships now I'm starting to go online more. I'm a forza convert, only had my PS3 and GT5 about 2months now.
My PSN is PAUL_TT_225 if I can join sometime.

It must be me but I can't get the gearbox to match that spec?

Try resetting to default and then tweak again.

Drc don't suppose you have a 2000 ticket by any chance?

DrC said:

If you mean a year 2000 ticket (and I'm sure you do) then I don't think so, ill look tomorrow (later). What is it you are after?

Im after a ford falcon xr, seems the only way to get one other than a ucs but still hasnt turned up.

Rex the 2000 ticket is a year 2000 bday ticket.

[Darkdice]

Thanks drc

I hope to be later

[Darkdice]

How long is the track. 2.47 from memory.

If this is right it's 25 laps.

60 miles/Lap length

Round up to get no of laps.

[Darkdice]

Yeah very fun last night. How I got 2nd in race 2 I do not know. Race I tried the 9/9/7 but it didnt work.

Ok Im torn on combos for this week.

I was think the Honda HSV supper GT car but not sure if everyone has this (think it was a PS Store purchase).

Then I was think MAcca F1 GTR race car but weve had teh road car.

My current choice would be the VW Samba bus with some tunning its around 202bhp and 960kg.

I will confirm what I decide but Im at work until late so the combo should be up by 8pm ish (no Im not deducting points before you ask Norbs!)

[Darkdice]

Norbury90 said:

10 points deducted per hour late!

Yes from your total - think I might let you know the combo by Friday - that should wipe out any champ lead you currently have!

[Darkdice]

Ok party people here is the combo


VW Samba bus
Stage 3 lightness
Window reduction
Rigidity

Should be 931kg

Engine stage 3
All other power mods + hi rpm turbo and oil change

Circa 202 bhp

Full customs gearbox set to 130mph at the bottom only mod

All drivetrain but standard diff

Height adjust suspension but left stock

Comfort meds and softs

At Rome - if we need to up the top speed we will - 130mph was ok at Laguna though

Laps will be 28

Ballast
1st 92kg
2nd 73kg
3rd 52kg
4th 34kg

ENJOY!

PS table updated on P1 - Norbs your points lead is only ten so me being 2 hours late just cost you 20 points so Flip is now 1st and Im 2nd.

Rex I use the basic Logitech wired one cost me around £10 works perfectly and never runs out of juice!

Other than that I don't know.

[Darkdice]

Yes but probably a bit later than that

[Darkdice]

I've no problem with de-modded so long as spec picked isn't improved

Eg if its a racing exhaust and ecu and fiter you can't remove and add say a turbo.

Same goes for other parts but if that's the case I would say its up to whoever picks the combo as in some cases running stock suspension could be an advantage


Just got in could be on in 30 mins of anyone around
