vansman66 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Being a complete copycat here, but I love the idea that Ekona came up with using Forza 5. I compared car for car track for track between them and me on GT6 and it appears the games are quite different. I easily got better times with the exact same car, HP, weight etc, but even though I was never going to be able to join in on the long run in their championship, I had fun doing it So what I want to do is pretty much the same thing here with GT6 if we have enough people to make it fun. Let me know if you'd like to take part and stick your name on the list if you'd like to take part. If you don't know how it works, have a look at the Forza championship sticky at the top, it'll be pretty much the same as that 1. KyleR - MarMoSet 2. Dannyg - wombraider1986 3. Ozwald - ozwald25 4. SuperStu - Reed_Rockhard 5. Longsh07 - x_L0ng__5h07_x 6. Vansman66 - vansman43 Challenge 1 - British Cars, Max PP450, Max Sports Soft tyres.

Stutopia Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I was just about to call it a night when this happened SS 2:12.466 There 0.5s in my first sector somewhere. I followed that up with a 2:11.462 but it was ruled INVALID by some bureaucrat for snipping the penultimate corner! BOOOOOO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) You're not making this easy Stu!! I think I'm done with these three, there's nothing in there for me now except frustration and more fist shaped holes in my bathroom door. Silverstone has more, but the lap is so long there's too many places to lose it on the ragged edge with the time available being in sector 1. I'm dreading when we get round to Nurburgring in the Suzuki Wagon R Edited January 27, 2014 by SuperStu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm dreading when we get round to Nurburgring in the Suzuki Wagon R There's some fine tuning to be done on Silverstone so probably got some time there, whether it's two seconds though, won't know till tomorrow! I find it a lot easier than Brands Hatch, I just can't get a rhythm on that track, drop one wheel off and that's the whole lap ruined. 'Ring I'd be happy with haha! Wagon R... maybe not so much!

It's unbelievable how much a few tweaks here and there in the suspension makes. Shall we add another track to keep you guys who have too much time on your hands busy?

I followed that up with a 2:11.462 but it was ruled INVALID by some bureaucrat for snipping the penultimate corner! BOOOOOO! I feel for you on this one. The amount of times I've screamed bullsh*t as my tv when one of the last three corners has gone invalid for basically tickling the curb is crazy. Yet on brands hatch you can turn half the track into a rally course and it doesn't bat an eyelid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 It's really picky about rallycross on the inside of corners, but doesn't care a jot about the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 You can oil change, but only because people may want to use that car at a later date and get the most out of it and may not have million of cr. to throw around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberfella Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Hiya fellow Z owners and GT6 racers. Feel free to add me cyberfella on PSN. I'll see how I stack up against you guys. I'm more into the drifting than the racing, but have done a fair bit of racing on GT5 and GT6, so am keen to join in. Could even have an added challenge of how many drift points around tsukuba in a Z. say, with no engine tuning restrictions but with tyres restricted to comfort soft or less. just a suggestion.

vansman66 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I have to say that after spending loads of time on GT5, I lost interest in GT6 really quickly, not even half way through trying to complete it but this challenge has got my interest back in again, having said that I'm still miles away from putting up a half respectful time, are you guys on on wheels/pedals as opposed to the pad as wonder if this makes a big difference in my lack of ability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperStu's using a Controller and I'm using Driving Force GT Wheel and there's hardly anything in our times. I'm sure Stu is some kind of Robot though as I couldn't get anywhere near my times with a controller! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome mate, get stuck in with some times I suck at the drifting and have only managed a bronze in the first challenge, can't even get bronze in the others I have to say that after spending loads of time on GT5, I lost interest in GT6 really quickly, not even half way through trying to complete it but this challenge has got my interest back in again, having said that I'm still miles away from putting up a half respectful time, are you guys on on wheels/pedals as opposed to the pad as wonder if this makes a big difference in my lack of ability. I'm using the T500rs wheel which I bought shortly after GT5 came out. To me it makes a big difference. As a wee test I took the F1 car around the high speed ring with a controller and then afterwards with the wheel and I was about 1 second faster, which is a lot for such an easy fast track. Apparently the controller is better for drifting though, so I may have to wipe the dust off it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vansman - I'd lost interest in GT6 abit too, the career mode was too easy, the competition isn't there, but this has totally reinvigorated it for me and I've learnt three new tracks, which I didn't know at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) I used it on both BH and SS, then got faster laps without it lol It only really matters for high power cars I think because it does eff all for the lotus.
