Tons of fun last night. Wish my luck with the clutch was as good as Waldo's but I had the wrong button to push...ugh.

We might wanna hammer out the official rules for the Enduro cars in the next day or two (power/aero/weight restrictions, car list).

Yick, so all my cars were horribly uncompetitive, guess that's what I get for going with storefront tunes.

I forgot to post before the race that I didn't get a car ready. Work has been a bit hectic here lately.

Bull cars = ICK!

If I could find a GT3 RS that was solid I'd love it but honestly I'm open to just about anything (if all the cars I ran last night were any indication). I like Poh-Sha and Ferrari the most, but anything will work.

BTW, sorry about all the contact last night, but in my defense all but one of the times I hit you I either A) had no control over it (I was recovering/reacting to being hit myself, like Camino Viejo Extreme) or B) Didn't see you. The straight on Catalyuna I literally did not see you, I was running the in-car view and apparently you were right next to me on the far side of the view, all the sudden there was contact and I didn't ever know you were there. One time it was all me though, my car didn't brake nearly as quickly as I hoped it would.

I understand about the contact. It was getting frustrating though as I would end up in the back at the beginning the race and have to fight my way back up front. I think I had one of the faster cars (judging by the fast lap times anyway). It seemed like every first turn (or even the opening straight) I would be smashed off the track. I would only be able to make it up to 4th or 5th by the end of the race.

Anyway, I have a decent F360CS tune that handles very well. It's lacking on top end, so I can put race tires on and do some more tweaking to make it a little faster while trying to keep the handling. Would you be interested in spending some time in a tune session sometime?

Can I join next week? :)

I don't pretend to be as into it as you guys, but I enjoy the game and I have quite a few track days under my belt IRL.

u used a different car for different track and didn't give have time to adjust to it. i can't imagine the RS being bad since it is an early leaderboard car.

It may be a leaderboard car but from what I see it's a leaderboard car with AWD and a supercharger...

Going by the list in the op I'm next up & I posted my pick a few days ago.

Hopeless said:
Looking at the list it would appear that my round to pick is coming up in a couple weeks. I've already got an idea for it so I figured I'd go ahead and post it to give everyone time to play around. Of course I'm still fairly new at playing the game so some of this may not work, if anyone sees a problem pass it along.

Pick for 24 Feb

R3 800 max

Restrictions:
* No car that has a starting PI higher than R3 800 is allowed, even if it can come down.
* Cars that start below R3 800 are allowed as long as it can get to R3.
* No drivetrain swaps. If the base car is RWD it stays RWD, AWD stays AWD.
* Must have Forza front bumper and spoiler
* Must have race tires.

Many apologies for my great slacking on the OP but I just updated it. I think pigs are flying outside, gentlemen. Hell might also have frozen over.

Has anyone considered a night racing in A600 versions of our IRL cars (or the closest thing to them)? Require a picture of the person with the car and a note saying anandtech or whatever. Would be pretty entertaining :)
