strip it down to its original model it comes in(if possible) then continue to add the $30k in mods.

Well I have the Blitz Skyline that I used bone stock in the Skyline Race, and The Carbon R which I bought for the hell of it. The Carbon R has nitrous but if I remove it I should be okay?

-multiple times may be recorded with different car
Jeez I am stupid. I have never participated in these challanges before, but can I do my test on the Tokyo R246 practice, or do I have to do it in a race with 5 other drivers?

Yea just dump the nitrous and its all good. You can run your times anyway you want, practice or against the computer

Yea thats the general idea, unless we find something that totally outclasses anything else.

We already did that during Week 1 and there was a $50k limit for it all.

But ona sadder note, my PS2 won't read my GT4 right anymoreeeeeeeeee :crying:

spaminator
06-21-2005, 06:33 PM
Sorry dude.

That's partially why that game never leaves my ps2. Because i don't want to scratch it.

XeVeNskyLiNE
06-21-2005, 08:35 PM
The thing is my disk isn't even scratched up that much, its just my PS2 is old as hell so I have to clean the eye pretty often. Once ina while it'll read the GT4 disk but once I got to the loading screen to go to a track it freezes up. It did that on my own GT4 disk and a GT4 disk from Blockbuster I was gonna swap with mine. IT SUCKSSSSSSSSSS

06-22-2005, 01:06 AM

06-22-2005, 01:47 PM

A couple for me:

Amuse Carbon R 1:36.170
Oil Change $50
R2 Tires $10,500
Full Custom Transmission $10,200

Amuse S2000 GT1 '04: 1:36.513

Full Custom Transmission $10,400

Amuse S2000 GT1 '04: 1:35.186

Well I might do next weeks challenge if it is a GT3 race track...

honda_racing101
06-23-2005, 05:13 PM
Ok I gave it a shot and...
Amuse Carbon R
R3 Race tires-22,500
oil-50
Best time-1:34.23

I need to tune the car and try again, I know I can do better than that.

I have the same settings with spam but I got a slower timing. 1:34.720
I can't play this track well.. :icon16:

Hobbes

Ever came home from work feeling like shit? Yeah, me too.

I guess this ends another week of competiton. With everybody being busy this week and a casualty (XeVeN's PS2) it's been really slow. So we congratulate ummm... spaminator in his Amuse S2000 with a time of 1'33.821.

Other Notables

1'35.186 --- kfoote
1'34.230 --- honda_racing101
1'34.720 --- forhod
1'37.529 --- Hobbes

I say we should do this again some other time.

my ps2 is such a tease. It'll play all my games, but when it comes to GT4, it takes a thousand tries to get it to work, and when it does, it freezes on the loading screen when I pick a track........

anyways, here's some ideas, you guys put some ideas in too

3. "JGTC Meet" - JGTC cars only, no mods, Tokyo R246 or Suzuka
4. "DTM Meet" - DTM cars only, no mods, Cote de Azur or Circuit de la Sarthe 1
5. "Supercar Run" - Car must be over 400hp stock, $40k on mods alone, New York or Seattle Circuit

I had that happen to me when I was playing NFS Hot Pursuit on teh PS. New games on old systems always seem to have problems.


I like the DTM challenge.

I like the JGTC idea, sounds cool to me.

spaminator
06-27-2005, 08:05 PM
supercars would have to be a little more limited than that.

nicecar
06-28-2005, 12:35 PM
i have an idea, the Le mans type racers only.
no mods on circuit de la sarthe 1

I don't have any of those cars. Plus they're exspensive as hell.
