Makes no sense to allow Arcade and GT mode - make yourrules tighter - keep the cheaters out...

Oh - and what possible competition can one have with a Honda Civic.. I fall asleep before the end of the back straight -

^^ actually I really enjoyed the lower powered cars in Enthusia for that reason... carrying speed through the corners was rather fun... - lets you really appreciate the lap times as you decrement them by .1 sec of hard earned speed.

IMO it should be arcade OR GT as said

BTW, a good idea would be also to post some pics of the car in the first post, not only for ppl to see what it is, but also to add some color

deadline?

1'07.929 for me after a few laps...

Are there controls as to whether you have the TC/stability on or not? I did the lap without, but I imagine on other tracks it could be quite important to know.

Damn it - I started last night but used Racing-Medium tyres.....so I can throw those laps away. :bah:

I thought we were doing it RC's way - over about 2-3months?

well if you guys can agree on using arcade exclusively then that'll be easier for everyone.

i'll change the original post once there are a minimum of 3 ok's (or majority) on either arcade or gt mode.


and we could do it as RC's way. if someone will step up to the plate and organise that. we can go ahead. but for now, i believe this will be easier for everyone.

if next sunday 7 pm is good for a deadline than that'll be edited in the first post and points would be awarded then.

let me know what you guys think. i'd like to get this underway so we can get to some racing.

I'm using GT mode. Already bought the car Lets just leave it on GT mode. It's not like its going to be hard to get the money for all the cars you need.

First laps have relinquished a 1'09:133. Trying to knock some more off that but the damn ghost is irritating me

*EDIT* Broke into the 1'08s
