Car:
Image
The front-engine, rear-wheel-drive Nissan Fairlady '03. NO DRIVE-TRAIN SWAPS. I wanna see some custom liveries too :)

Tune:
A Class, 600 PI. How you get it to 600 is up to you (but no drivetrain swaps). You can swap engines and go for raw power, or you can upgrade across the board for a more complete package. I have chosen to go stock engine with mainly sport upgrades, and race options for springs, brakes & tyres. I then used a tuning calculator to find a decent set-up for it. I recommend you give it a shot. I have put my tune onto my storefront for those who don't want to tinker around in the garage. It's called Sport 600, with http://www.gamesranch.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; in the description. I have no idea how competitive it is, but it handles well.

Track:
Image
Twin Ring Motegi - West circuit. I thought I'd start with a short track which is less frustrating to set hotlaps on. Only 4 corners. T1 is a double apex that leads onto a long straight, making it crucial to find the right line and good traction on the exit. At the end of the straight is a chicane-like complex that leads onto the start finish straight. Time can be found over the curbs and again, the exit is crucial. Since it is a short track, you may want to adjust the gear ratios, or at least final drive to suit.

Assists
Generally, the less assists, the better, but drive how you prefer. Post your assists when you post your time (ignoring racing/braking line).

__________________________________________

I expect my time to be beaten quickly! It'll be fun to race this combo on MNR once we've all had a crack at the leaderboard. Happy to hear suggestions for the next throwdown.

edit - moved to its own thread so times can be updated. I know people are probably too busy having gay alien sex in shepherds in space 2, but is anyone keen on the idea anyway (the fast laps, not the gay sex)?

Can't upload my times till I sort out my account, which has been suspended from XBL.

Oh and I've been tinkering with my RS200. Watch out bitches.

My XBL acc was tied to a UK CC and since I closed that account, it wasn't valid anymore so they took it unto themselves to suspend it rather than leave me in Silver. Anyway, sorted now.

Had a quick race on that track but with my A600 class Ford RS200. Managed to beat your time (It's on the leaderboards) by about 0.400 secs and that was a struggle to race perfectly with no penalty for staying on the track. It can be beat it you go off the track, but our times will stay up there. :)

Currently trying to edit some vids and stitch them together to make a bit of a racing video.

But can you beat it in the fairlady z '03? ;)

I have no luck with the video upload tool :/

just checked the leaderboards - that rs200 more hp, more torque and weighs heaps less - PI system be damned! :P

But it has a top speed of only about 5.2 or thereabouts. :P

Anyway, I will try the 350z or whatever it is once I tune up my custom painted one.

Hmm now you have me thinking... perhaps I can squeeze more off my time if I can focus the upgrades on acceleration.

Just make sure it's the '03 model 350z, not the 370z.

I downloaded Mr Burns' set up and managed to get a 39.028 after 30 laps. Was a real effort actually, although my previous ghost sort of helped. Can't change the set up though so will try again after tinkering with some parts.

Here's my ride.

38.737 with my new set up (No Turbo!!!!). Only about .1 off my RS200 time, and these won't sow up till I beat the RS200 either so you'll have to take my word for it. :)

Nice one mate. I got into the high 38's a few times last night when i was testing. Tried all 3 engine swaps with twin turbo and couldn't really find any real winner. Think I'll stick with the upgraded stock option. Will do some laps tonight :)

Should use the 350z to race on all three Twin Motegi circuit tracks and then check the times combined. (They are shown when you highlight Twin Motegi before you select which track to race on)

I take it only 'qualifying laps' (ie No Triangle with !) qualify on this leaderboard?
No cutting corners?

yeah it has to be a clean lap, which can be so frustrating! Good thing it's a very short circuit.

Leaderboard has been updated! t0mby is the man to beat :t0mby:

Just thought I'd remind you guys I won that. My apartment also smells of rich mahogany.

I'm sure it was no accident that it was scheduled while I was on holiday.
