No worries. Remember you drop 3 worst weekends to help when you can't make it.

Drc when you set up later is like to run a one lapper at another track to see if we get quali races.

For m3 race we can use no tuning.

But for the vette we need to have min weight 1500kg and a power fig as close to 460 as we can

Eh???? I didn't say anything about ballast! confused
I thought the whole idea is we all run the same spec cars!
Can you bring me up to speed please? i'm away from home until later this afternoon.
In previous champs we have run success ballast for the top 4 of the previous race.

It was an overall champ rule which I hadn't decided whether it implement or not. As such I asked you guys for thoughts. Most of the replies favoured continuing this throughout this champ. I just haven't updated the rules on p1.

So from race 2 tonight ballast will be added. The top 4 from race 2 tonight will carry ballast into race 1 (and quali) for week 2.

Cool cheers.
I saw no mention of ballast all week then go away for weekend so not really following the forum, have a quick look earlier and saw it it completely threw me.

I'm home now and practising for tonight smile
Should be good fun (I have a headset now too)
You can join in the abuse of Norbs then hehe

Sorry about missing race 2 last night, not that it would have made any difference hehe

We had a yet another power cut.

Can't believe how fast some (most) of you guys are. How the hell do you times like that? I think I was only a few seconds from being lapped in race one frown
To be honest most people start of in your boat. We've been at this constantly since the launch of gt5 and we have all got quicker. Are you using a pad? Saying that a number of people after one season start to get in the pace. Also joe and goodwood are very very quick.

Blade - not sure why, I think my lack of power was forgetting to oil change but it was a fairly level playing field. Those with more horses would have had a touch more torques.

As for mic. Check all the sound and accessory settings in xmb and then check them in gt6.

After looking at the table I realised I was 5th both races. I didn't see Norbs in either race so I gave myself a 30kg ballast for no reason frown
I did see you ask but I thought you'd heard me.

Frank. I do. There are quite a few pad users, ferry, Norbs, Ian and flip def do.

I have t used a pad in years. Norbs has just bought a wheel but he's a) not up to speed and b) can't drive so I guess he'll never be! hehe

As far as I know this weeks combo is stock on sports meds. I've sent armchair a message so hopefully he'll post soon.

Any way i can get involved in this GT6 action Guys?
Possibly as we are missing a few last week, but 1st dibs will go to those reg before. Get the cars above for this Sunday - you'll need to add a few or the guys to get in the room.

The NSX feels quite lethargic out of the turns but so easy to provoke into a slide (generally an uncontrollable slide for mehehe). The Rocket on the other hand is like its on rails, fantastic little thing. Top speed is maxing out well before the end of the start finish straight though.
I think we might need to teak the gearbox of both. As you said the rocket is on the limiter. The NSX in Acura form seems to have a big gap in some of the gears ie it's off the cam. I'll try and look at this later but by the morning.

Hi Dice. Any chance for a return of the Rex. Not played GT6 till a friend asked me to complete a licence challenge. Realised that I could do with playing this again. Will be a bit ring rusty but should still find a turn of speed.
Alright stranger. Thought you were lost in a over steering exige somewhere or possibly been squashed by bass!! (No rugby chat after the weekend please).

As I said above by all means come along but if the 16 guys listed on p1 all turn up....

Excellent downloading it now. It will be good to be back beer

Slightly deaf from the bass but unfortunately it will not affect me hearing Norbs girly excitable tones during a race. smile










Hi Norbs wavey
You best get cracking mate - you can't get online until you have international A licence
