Who else needs my Celica?

I will send them out 1st thing in the morning. (please add your GT so I remember doh!)
I'll give it a crack, although I'm not sure I'm on your friends list...

G/T oO0 S6 0Oo

The EMW tune is a good 0.5 seconds quicker than my other celica setup, but it's a little edgy, and easy to loose speed with a skid.

Currently in the low 600's on the LB with a Muygen CTR, i've tried my own and Carl's Celica, and I can get near, but not beat it. It's the corner at the bottom of the hill I can't seem to crack, not the tight bumpy one, the left shortly after.

The Left onto the start finish straight?

Hug the inside, stay on the white line. (That's what I'm doing anyway.)

BTW, Stumpyalan has set a 45.5 in a Golf I think... puts him 80th ish. Good going. I'm currently on 45.9, (170th) but I don't think I can get much more out of it. Maybe another couple of tenths.

No the one before that, I either head into it too fast, clip the Apex but drift far too wide and uncertify the lap or I lose too much speed entering the corner trying to get the line right and drop a few mph getting up the hill.

Just put in a 46.076 which gives me a 205 position.

I can get another .154 ahead through the first corner, but can't keep it when I get down to the bottom (bumpy) corners.


  • EDIT*
Yay, just set a 79th position on Sunset in E class Oval.

Sounds odd...but are you doing the track in reverse?

Do you know you can race against other people's ghosts?

If not then try racing a fast ghost (i usually race whoever is around the 200th mark), you can watch how other people are taking the corner then and see what you are doing wrong.

If you already knew this then just ignore me hehe

Yeah, these today are my first top 250 times I think.

I've got in the top 80s for one of the ovals, and I'll probs have a go at getting some more in a bit.

  • edit*
Just found out that I had a time in position 99 on one of the ovals.
Your problem with adding me may be the space between Cerberus and 2990.

Cerberus- your added to the team now, it was the spacing. The results you've got today won't show until tomorrow if you search the site though.

Idlewillow- Can you give me an example of a track you've got a top 250 on. I've had a quick look and can't find any, but with the amount of tracks and classes, needle in a hay stack jumps to mind.

A possible suggestion?

If this is about getting team PH higher in the ranks, then everyone on one track each week will take ages, given that there are so many.

If you picked an environment, and we all had a crack at each track in that environment, you'd get loads more top 250 times and the team would climb the ranks quickly.

Just looking at the website now, and Stumpyalan has logged a time at just about every track! Carrying us he is! smile

Logging a time is no good. Looks as if only the top 100 score points?

Nope he's right, only top 100 score points, we still move up for top 250's though.
