AJI Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 TCS and all that anti-understeer / anti-oversteer aid is for whimps !! LOL Still have to have the suggested gear left on for the last quarter of the track.... I know the first three quarters like the back of my hand now but its all those 3rd gear tight exit bends that still catch me out from time to time. I'll have it all licked by the time we go over to do the track in real life in June !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJI Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Well the track in the game was 'Lidar-mapped'... they drove round it with GPS hooked upto terrain mapping equipment. So I guess it should be pretty accurate when it comes to the track layout. What I guess the game won't replicate is all the bumps and surface grip changes. But anyway... time will tell if you can learn a track from a game and drive it in real life thinking you know every corner. My first laps in real life will always be 'sighting' laps... as with any new track layout. Usually two of these followed by gradually building up speed and experimenting with different lines.

Syed Shah Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 ok.... just slapped a soft compound race tyre on and my new time is 6"50'.412... got camera phone proof if required LOL That's still with an NA Supra with all the mods possible... including rear down force wing and NOS. 6'48.460, also with camera phone evidence. That is 370HP (all mods) + 30HP shot of N20. Most other mods, full weight reduction etc. Definately a few seconds more left in the setup, perhaps even in the 6'30s with some suspension tuning. Now beat it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syed Shah Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 Lol! I will do it in the TT and trash your time, I promise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I want you to. That was the idea about having a stock car challenge etc NO tcs/acs etc, sports medium (default) tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 6'48.460, also with camera phone evidence. Now beat it! bugga ! Hmm.. don't know where I can easily find two seconds over my last time but will give it a go! (I know those two banked corners can be a bit iffy.... if you slide over the top and onto the flat then you're into the barrier.. but if you hook it right into the inside you can keep your speed up. But still not sure whether the best way is to try and apex it like a proper corner or hook it into the banked area from the start?) Also still going to do the stock TT challenge and will come back with times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I didn't want to be 'reposted'. This old RZ challenge- I presume even the tyres are as it stood straight from the crate? First lap of 8:08 Not good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
