You hear that fellas? Nasties won't be racing this next race. You know what that means right? Thats an extra chance to get in the top 5! Myself included. YAY!
well turns out the laguna tune works great at motegi. so wont be putting up another one for this round. the laguna tune is a good all around tune, the first two were more specifically for those tracks with long sweeping corners and no need for 2nd gear.
All the setup of handicap I made minimum of 5 lap on motegi full (also made 5 extra lap in some case because I make too much mistake wanna to be sure to get the most accurate lap time)
10% power Handicap (a bit too fast on laguna) 2.04.286 5%
front 5% rear 5% power: 2.05.039 Maybe too much for me
So I try different handicap:
5% rear 5% front no power handicap: 2.04.509
15% Power: 2.04.558
So maybe I should have my own class If the average lap of everyone was around 2.04.5
I want to have a better result if you guys are interested to help me
I want to try in traffic if the no power handicap will mean too fast on straight line and overtake everybody
Maybe i'm better to have a 15% power handicap ... also want to try it in traffic to see if I can overtake someone
On Laguna seca with the 10% power handicap I always lost Ramciosa by 100/200/300 meter in straight like if he run a speed tune with drafting he's losing me too probably because he use the clutch (i dont)
or it's only the setup he use he was alot faster probably less aero or better gearing
For the people dont trust me lol. I upload on my storefront the video of each race with different handicap ...
Great time last night. A couple mistakes and a caution moved Cooter, Ramicosa & Jimmy get by, at some point Ram got loose coming out of the hairpin before the back straight and he and Jimmy made contact allowing me to go by. Next thing I know I had KC running me down. KC put the Alien mind whammy on me and made the pass. I spent the next 10 or so laps just riding his rear bumper. Together we chased Cooter down little by little. Best racing I've had in a long time !! Most fun too !! Thanks KC !!! With 2 laps to go Ramicosa had chased us down and was able to get by us to take 3rd !! Work has keep me off the xbox most of this week and this is an awesome race if I'm only going to be able to make 1 a week !!! Great job Cooter !!!
I had a blast again last night. Im also somewhat concerned about my handicap. I know that 10% wasn't enough. I ended up running a mid 2:02 at one point trying to catch up with with Surf and King. I am pretty confident I could have caught Cooter aswell if I hadn't been a victim of Jimmi lol.
My race was okay in the end. Started off okay but I had a bad 2 laps, lost all my focus and let the pack catch up to me, which is when Jimmi's lag pounced coming out of the hairpin, lol. At least I know how careful to be when getting close to him now. My last few laps I was able to get in the groove and ran some great laps catching Surf and King. I passed King dive bombing into the tight right hander at the end of the straight, using everything I could to avoid actually taking him out lol. I might have traded some paint but I think it all ended up okay.
I can't tell you guys how much fun Im having, not just in this series but in all the ones I am taking part in. I love that I can actually be competitive and keep a good pace compared to the vets. I cannot wait for next week! Good racing guys
Sounds like it was a good race. Shame i missed this, but after staying up until 2.30am and having tried about 8 times getting into the room with no luck i turned the xbox off and went to bed.
Maybe next time, or if by some chance a euro room was to be organised, i can catch a race in this car.
I think i will put up another tune for sedona tonight. I have been on a motor rebuilding frenzy (3 remaining before march) and have not been able to get on forza lately.
Oh Im hating this track already. I cant seem to run a clean lap. Always some corner catching me out. My quickest so far is a 2:20:9. I am running the Motegi set up form last week mainly because I can't find a better one right now and I suck at tuning personally. Anyone else got some lap times so I can compare?
Thus why on my track list it says: "Sedona Full (I hate this track and you should too)" It'll be a tricky one for passing sometimes. Even on the speed sections.
Thank you Brnt for the plate!!!
Cars now sponsored!
I'll send it in about 30 minutes if you don't have one by then.

Oops, I sent it to Prebuilt....

Got one thanx
I am going to be out of town this weekend, but I will post up a Motrin tune on my sf tomorrow.

No worries old school, I have a bib for that. I also have a key.
