Ugh...these seasonal events aren't easy! Trying both the Euro Expert race and the Red Bull one...I don't know the tracks well enough for decent times.

Sorry I missed out tonite..Was out eating at Thai house restaraunt..With parents,turns out one of my shoes has had it .I plan to go shoe shopping with Mom tomorrow,to replace them.It has a hole size of two fingers,straight through to my sock.Anyhow..I bettered my time around Bathurst today.The 480pp car challenge,I took a car I had lying around..A tommykaira zzii and tweaked it out.After trying a gtr nismo first..Just could not equal the time,in a audi r8 v10 plus with a turbo kit..SO I nailed it today.2 0 8 was first place,got a 2 06 and change! hahah.I bought a Red evil camaro.Brought home the need for independent rear suspension real quick.I had to change playstations a long back.The other one I was using died on me last year.And I have not done much online in open rooms yet.I need to write down all the important stuff again,and enter it .

ZZII is what the top rankers are using. Had to tune some of the understeer out but with a little less rear toe and some front camber I got it handling really well. Managed a 2:03.x

Damn dude,trying ot keep up with you man..That is crazy fast driving,many of my big v8 brawlers cant keep up! But I think playing wrc 3 or 4,ps3..I think would have upper hand!
Just did historic racing cup,the other day I had a turboed chapparal fan car..That was not even hard.I rather like the mgtf160.Like a baby elise,it continues on the mg name.
I have a subaru sti hatch back,for the rally cup on dirt,the seasonal event..The car is tuned for being light,carbon fiber driveshaft,plastic windows,gutted,rally suspension,lotsa stuff..IT wins almost every time.Was driving my 427 cobra,in the historic supercar cup,i tuned her to 535 hp,from 485..what a beast on hard tires! Very squirrley,first and second gear,of my five speed tremec,are useless.even down to 3k rpm,in third gear corner,I hit hte gas and she just pulls.Right up to 7k rpm,like a train.Bought a modern gto with teh 350 chevy in it,that is a good track car surprisingly.
I recently bought the fwd nissan gtr lemans car,I now have the audi r10 tdi,r18 tdi,nissan lmp gtr,the Auto Union stromlinenwagen,all kinds of neat stuff,and a vw kubelwagen with rally suspension lift kit.Fun stuff,my drag car is a vw karmann ghia with a built and turbo motor.

Was playing gt6 recently,I got a Lister storm v12..Cool car,always liked it.Not terribly competitive though. For fun I bought a spoon civic type r.Its got 300 hp,and awhopping 171 ft lbs torque,at like 10k rpm..Whats funny,my bmw 120d is 300 roughly hp,and over 400 ft lbs torque..at 4k rpm.It comes alive at 2500,and runs out about 5500 ..But at hte line,in first on full boost..I can smoke rear tires on medium compound slicks,where the honda only smokes front tires so far on street tires..And that is with a short ratio six speed,bmw has stock box.I also bought a Pozzie Camaro rs,I really like how it squats out of turns,and puts power down .The Stielow Camaro was overpowered,hard to put power down out of turns.the Pozzie car I dont have that problem,nowhere near the power true..But it puts power down out of turns so well.the suspension I have on it,is full stiff in rear,and is really stiff up front,but it still handles well for a big car.Built a c6 zr1 for the Willow Springs enduro,Really got it handling great.Will have to look at hte settings for the suspension.Medium compound street tires,full aero,gutted,the works..769 hp,chip,cat removal,oil change done,and that is about it. I think I might have done the intake and intake manifold too,came in second,behind a Mclaren f1,darn.But it handled the turns around that course great.They cna be made to do really well.Was not bad eating up everything else either,in the two straights on the course.The current challenges online,are tough.I beat the 500 pp challenge in a RUF boxster .The race car challenge got me beat,not familiar with teh 24 hr Ring course.I keep tapping the wall,my fault really..The Audi r18 tdi I drove was really nice.The 400 pp race in the computer mode,is fun..A 98 mini 1271 cc can be really competitive in the tighter tracks.

For the race car stuff I always go for the Chaparral 2J...it's ungodly faster than the rest.

Ferrari sp1,totally stripped out and modded for 599 pp.I did the italian sports challenge,at the spanish track.Have yet to turn much of a lap time,but wow..that car is so good,when you get her dialed in.Went from a tricked out enzo,to a sp1 i had lying around..From another challenge,great car.I also took my fxx,turned her down to 879 hp.She was stripped out,and everything..But I got her down to 650 pp,to do the 10 laps of silverstone..Couldnt catch the leaders,but she was stomping around that track.Soft compound tires,totally stripped out,adjustable everything..Against touring cars,opels and the like..I was just untouchable..the Mclaren f1lm and them,could not catch them..But wow,that was fun.Gotta try that again.

The FXX was a complete handful, but with the right throttle modulation on those crap tires she did pretty well.

My Ferrari fxx,on good tires..At silverstone,was just gobbling up other cars..Even turned down like it was,just unstoppable..Felt sorta bad really,a prototype speed car..Against touring cars..Like I was in one of my Audis.
