Just a suggestion: in order to make the build easier to read, every line in the build that says "stock" could be deleted.

I'm in for a maybe.  I'll have to go and purchase the car from the marketplace if I do join (haven't purchased the car pack).

Otherwise I can see what I can put together from the same era w/ a similar build.

Kochino, I'll send over the Rabbit build next time I boot up.  I completely spaced it and remembered after I shutdown the system.  Use it as you see fit.  Had fun tonight.

No problem, yes it was

 

I didn't expect that many people to show

 

I had a good battle with the middle of the pack for awhile

 

Someone was asking about the racing numbers, here is the thread [url=http://www.2old2play.com/forum/group-forums/2old4forza/racing-events-ser... #[/url]

 

__________

 

Seed Time, for those that show up at 10:30 you need to enter your seed time. This will let us know where you should be placed (handicap) or if you are the slowest it tells the faster guys what they should be aiming for.

We want to handicap the fast guys just enough to get everyone running about the same lap time

 

Yesterday we had one that ran away and another that handicapped himself too much

 

I don't want to tell you where to set yourself but you should try to handicap yourself to +/-1 from the slowest guy

That was fun last night.

I might have over handicapped myself, but it's hard to say really.  I think that if I ran in ProAm, that I might have been too fast.  Even in Pro my fast time was competitve, I was just at the tail end of the "pack" mostly because of one bad lap and wanted to bitch, lol.  For the most part we were all running fairly close, except for one way out front and one way behind, and I think that they were both with in AM, if I remember correct.  

If we can get everyone in that pack, this could turn out to be a very very fun racing series.

Brilliant battles throughout the pack.  Also a big apology to the car I rear ended when everyone stopped.  The car I was following all of sudden dove to the left...and I had a parked car in front of me.  blush  Had fun working through the pack w/ Snappy.  The best comment of the night - "Holy crap...where did they come from?" (Kochino?) This was after Snappy and I got a couple solid laps playing follow the leader to catch the next pack of cars in front of us.  cheeky  It was brilliant, up until Snappy and I made a little contact (car was already on edge, even sliding around a little bit) in the final 2 corners w/ only a couple laps to go.  I ended up sliding off the track, losing the spot to both Snappy and the car behind us (that we had just got passed the lap prior).  Still had a blast.  Didn't think to save the replay.  Definitely some good racing and pic opportunities.  cool

with the re-adjusting of the handicaps we managed to get everyone in the same range, almost everyone

 

I for one had my sites on Soapynuts  position but my small mistakes kept me from gaining on him and imjimeez44 up my bumper didn't help

 

Hope the rest of you had as hard of a time keeping up to the car in front wink

I would say its something to keep in mind for next week.  I only ran 2 practices on that track with the scirocco prior to the race...  I was bound to get a little faster.  blush  You guys should have been at least 1 handicap lower. 

The car was surprisingly fun though.  I'm looking forward to next week.

This seems to be the trend and we will adjust to the slowest lap time -1 sec for the last race at Twin Ring Motegi – East Circuit on May 29th

As for next months car might I suggest the 2009 Renault Twingo Renault Sport Cup?  I believe that it's a D class car, but it can be upgraded to E.  It was a blast to drive in the Championship.  Give it a try.
