GT5 450 Oldskool Classic Cup - Japan vs Europe vs America

yeh i haven't played with the braking settings yet either but I'm sure that will put my cars into the 1:31's, i love the tentativeness of driving these things lol, suspension setup is also a really important factor in this race, too low and you will get big oversteer on the banked sections, too high and u get understeer and bodyroll. Lovin it!

NOTE: Please check before you enter the track that your abs is SET TO '0' as it defaults to '1' i believe. I can change mine on the fly on the track, i recommend setting this up just in case. This IS designed as a fun race, and I know everyone here will be sticking to the rules , but still I will be looking at the replays if there is any discrepancies. This goes without saying but anyone racing using any abs will score 0 for that race. Again, I am only mentioning this as I can't lock '0' abs through settings.

2 days to go...... do those oil changes and polish those hubcaps!

I'm looking forward to this cup. I'll get some prac in over the next few days.
I'll be there for the first race but as for the second and third I may have to leave early... bummer

yea it's fun driving these cars... hopefully we can do a round where the cars are restricted to their stock
suspension... leaning all over the place haha.
Even an enduro would be cool...weather and time ON...

What do ya reckon trustos?

I really only did fully adjustable suspension for aesthetic purposes, and because most of these cars are boats to turn, and realistically if you owned one of these there is no way you would take it onto a track with fixed suspension I want all your cars at maximum low for the pictures! haha

Club photographs
I have decided the club shots will be taken on High Speed Ring, ONLY so people don't think they have missed the start of the race if they join late and quit thinking they were too late.

The shot will be taken at around 1:20pm on the straightaway, this will also double as the reset for qualifying which is at 1:30pm



So just to update everyone so hopefully u don't miss out.

Practice - 12:45pm onwards (Autumn Ring)
Club Photograph - 1:20pm (High Speed Ring)
Qualifying - 1:30pm (Autumn Ring)
Race 1 Start - 2:00pm (Autumn Ring)

Sounds good man!

This is gonna be epic. I'm gonna crash so many times.

Here is my girl in a RL shot. As hard as it is to drive, it is oh so pretty. Same color and everything.

so unique.... it was a strong machine in the rally championship in the 70's

Yeah, the last RWD car to win the WRC. Awesome rally car.

I just noticed the date, its this Saturday @ 2, sorry but I'm out, its my brothers 50'th Bday and the AFL grand final. Have fun guys
Hey Azza i will be using the Mk1 so you can use the other muscle cars if you want.

yeah I'm changing to the Chev Camaro Z28 '69 Cheers mate

Had a bit of a run with trusty last night. Hit a 1:30.7 in the Honda 1300 Coupe 9 S '70...BEAST

I bags bonus's grid spot and cars. That's if I can wrap work up in time tomorrow.

Yer go for it neishy got 2 muscle cars there seeing Aza got the camaro. Pick either one and i'll go the mk1 next race.

had a bit of practice with Chevwah last nite in the alpine 310. I'm sure its as difficult as everything else out there and when you push these cars they like take right angle corners into the nearest wall, so im still refining my driving technieue and the car. But im managing around the mid 31's consistently so ill probably be staying towards the rear of the pack (judging from what i saw from Chev!) Or should i say HOPING to be staying towards the rear of the pack. Anyway, enjoying the old skool cars and 6 shifter and the constant need for correction. Great fun.

I've found some pace in the Stratos...so look out boys.

Not telling. But it's a fine line in the lancia. Just like in real life, you either get a very fast lap time...or you die a horrible death. Be warned though, I may be the only driver who is actually in what could be called a "70s supercar". The lap times will reflect that.
