Sweet lap Sperry.

bemani · 2006-01-25, 09:28 AM

Ok, let's go for something easy as everyone complains about the handling and what not.
Tsukuba dry track, Honda 04 CIVIC Type R. You guys might have it as an 03 car. And don't take the Integra/RSX Type R out by mistake ...

bxracer69 · 2006-01-25, 09:42 AM

can we get something a little faster than the civic... i always feel like im driving in slow motion

JonnydaJibba · 2006-01-25, 10:03 AM

Two minute lap times on Tsukuba! Haha, jk I don't really care. Since driving that Renault I have learned to appreciate how different cars behave. That one was actually fun. But when a car is that slow, it's not too hard to have a perfect line.

I'm down! The Civic's not incredibly slow, and Tsukuba's a pretty short track, so it's not like having to walk around Grand Valley or anything.

And like JdJ said, you'er going to have to be very precise (especially w/ the braking weight transfer) to put the car exactly on the track where it needs to be to get a winning lap time. I think a lot of us will be within a second of the winning time, but it's going to be tough fighting for those last few tenths.

JonnydaJibba · 2006-01-25, 10:32 AM

We'll have our own Best Motoring contest.

bemani · 2006-01-25, 10:38 AM

under under under!

Forgotten · 2006-01-25, 03:34 PM

Tried about 10 laps in between calc problems.
105.504
There is a lot left, that last sweeper is really hard and I have no idea how to go about taking it.

bemani · 2006-01-25, 06:37 PM

1'04.869 from me after 15 laps.

JonnydaJibba · 2006-01-25, 09:36 PM

105.8 =/ Are we using the EP?

bemani · 2006-01-25, 10:05 PM

yep

cody · 2006-01-26, 08:28 AM

What's EP?

JonnydaJibba · 2006-01-26, 08:49 AM

Part of the chassis code for this. One of my favorite cars I think. Mostly because it doesn't really look like a Civic.

cody · 2006-01-26, 09:25 AM

Alright, I updated the first post. Sperry and Bemani, what were your times please?

bemani · 2006-01-26, 09:45 AM

Scott ran a 1'13.393, I got 1'13.505.

That thing looks like a focus.

I didnt say I didnt like it, I said it looks like a Focus...I drove a 2005 at Sims that was quick as hell, not like my subaru, but the vtec is no slouch.

cody · 2006-01-29, 11:54 PM

Stupid FWD pisses me off.

Yeah, I'm having a hard time w/ the crazy transitions from oversteer to understeer. If you overdrive the car a bit, it actually turns pretty good. But if you try to be really smooth and keep the momentum up, the car pushes a lot on exit!

I still haven't gotten below Bemani's time, though I'm close.

JonnydaJibba · 2006-01-30, 08:07 AM

Wheelspin is a biatch, but I don't really like using TCM. It's weird how easily you can get the car sideways. Still not sub 1.05s yet.

bemani · 2006-01-30, 09:13 AM

My new time is 1'04.785.

That's a pretty good lap. I think I can catch you once I figure out which turns are faster to drive agressively and which turns are faster to drive smoothly. Oh, and I'll need to get lucky a bit.

bemani · 2006-01-30, 07:27 PM

1'04.754

I can get into the low .6s, I can't see where I can get more time than that.
