@richy I hit 162 if i get out of the final corner nice which were the type of speeds i was hitting in my old gt2 bmw. Im running between your two times with the ford i am hitting 52s (best is a 52.6xx with the help of louis) more often than not but sometimes mess up and end up in the 53s The issue is if you restrict or de-restrict either car they become uncompetitive. I feel really comfortable with the car, so i think with the gt its up to the driver

Yeah I don't like the Ford to be honest. Much prefer the Jag but might have been my tune to be honest.

by **Radiation Louis** Fri 10 Sep 2010 - 22:04

ok after this round i say we need to get nightrider and some of the Jag boys together and see wher nightrider stands against the jags at road america, if they do similar lap time, nightrider wont have to worry about resticting the ford but if he blows them out of the water sorry bud will have to restrain the beast

by **Richy59** Fri 10 Sep 2010 - 22:16

We'll see how it goes around here as well

by **Radiation Louis** Fri 10 Sep 2010 - 22:17

agreed!

Slowly making some inroads into the deficit with the Jag, but nothing near enough yet Sad

by HCR generaltso Fri 10 Sep 2010 - 23:50

send it to me slider...

ehhhhh although you didnt like what i did to the prototype....so you might not like what i do to the car.

by XTI Jon Snow Sat 11 Sep 2010 - 0:31

The fords gonna be really quick at road america to be honest, but i think the jag is the only restricted GT2 Car. Also just an aside, i chose to go to the GT off the cuff, I had never even tested it

by **Radiation Louis** Sat 11 Sep 2010 - 4:50

slider you want me to tune you're car too?

by Slider S15 Sat 11 Sep 2010 - 10:03

no thanks im just going to get it to where i feel comfortable with it like i did with the Mazda and hopefully something good will come of it Smile

(I can Always aim to be top Jag! Razz

Slider, with some time youre gonna be in the 52s as well, it took me ALOT of trial and error, like there were times where i would run nur like 3 hours straight making adjustments, I was in the 52s before, but louis tune helped the car turn a little more (and i still adjusted it for preference).

Also car reveal soon

I am seriously thinking I need to pass on this one. I've been a bit burned out on Forza 3 lately and have been playing a lot of just about anything else. A a result I'm not even close to the GT2 times you guys are talking about. 2 or 3 seconds is one thing but 8 -10 is another. No longer a moving chicane but a moving roadblock. I'd hate to ruin it for you guys.

by **CQR Aero** Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 8:17

You wouldn't ruin it mate, you'd just add spice to the mix! Seriously though, as long as you race sensibly, and we know you would, it won't be a problem. Come and have fun!

by **Matt** Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 8:31

Looks like I am now out for this one guys Sad

by garyp3398 Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 9:00

not everyone is lapping that fast in the gt2 cars.So as Aero said come and join in Very Happy

enjoyed racing with you last time.The f430gt is a beast on the straights.

by **JAMIE ANDERS0N** Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 10:38

Im looking forward to this race now

by Slider S15 Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 11:24

I have one more idea which MIGHT Help SLIGHTLY gain the jag an advantage at something if i can get it to work like i think it can. I'll try it after the F1 and then leave it alone so i can get used to it.

by XTI Avenger Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 14:04

IN for this, although it may be hard to stop playing the new Crackdown 2 DLC..

by **ATR DAN** Sun 12 Sep 2010 - 15:06

I'm OUT now.
I've just done a practice run and I don't think my leg could las the full hour and a bit. So to be safe, I'm going to rest it a while longer until I am fully ready to race. Crying or Very sad
