____________________________________________

@ Brett: Is it fastest time wins or are you keeping seperate timesheets for each car?


@ Fozeyl Evo II: did you post all the lap times of last week's challenge in a list so we can see who placed where?

Will do so over the course of today or tomorrow... been a stacked week for me bro

hi how about starting a fifa street 4 thread

 

[OppositeLockMT]

I don't think many people have Fifa Street, I have Fifa 13. As this is a car forum people are more likely to have racing games, how would we co-ordinate the Fifa Street challenges anyway? :fencelook:

 

[BrettRuthnam]

:fencelook::fencelook::fencelook:

Driving line allowed???

Sure, I don't see any reason why not. :=):

I was of the impression we race different cars on different tracks otherwise it will get boring pretty quickly.

So i say fastest time wins.

Confirmed next challenge:
Car - Nissan GTR 2007
Car Restrictions - NO tuning
Tyres - Racing softs all around
Track - Deep Forest Reverse

Don't forget, picture for proof and state DS3 or Wheel.

Happy Racing!

 

[OppositeLockMT]

I think we should just race one car.

PS: remember we also have a drift event, so you have to choose the time trial car and track plus the dift event car and track. Thought of bringing in the drift event so things don't get boring quickly - had to wait till the second week to introduce it.

Ok i'll open up:

GTR 07 (Stock, fair play and all that:argh::=)
No assists or driving line
Manual
Racing Soft
1:17.072
Dualshock Controller

Notes: I'd say there's still 2 seconds there, if you run a perfect lap.

 

[OppositeLockMT]

Still waiting for the drift event :fencelook:

Thanks for getting the ball rolling Wes :thumbs:

 

[Major]

so far this is what i can manage, i did hit a 1:13.6 but it was red:fencelook:

 

[Executer]

OppositeLock what kind of drift scores are you getting to??

 

[Fuzz@tinyNET]

Highest drift score is 10969 :fencelook:

 

[OppositeLockMT]

Wow, I don't know how the hell you guys aren't getting down to 1.13s. I did a near perfect lap and got 1.15.806. No Assists, except ABS1 and skid recovery. I'm not used to driving an all wheel drive.

Drift score: 11664
Car: BMW 135i
Tyres: Comfort Medium

 

[OppositeLockMT]

Update: best time is now 1.14.364, I don't know where the hell you guys are getting that second. I feel like I've reached my limit, I've tried to beat my lap time no less than 20 times to no avail.

DS3
ABS: 10
TSC: 1

Will put up a screenshot when I feel I honestly can't improve it any further.

Try turning in a little earlier on the first corner :idea:

Ey, you said " I don't know how the hell you guys aren't getting down to 1.13s." but we are! (me thinks a typo).

You can improve it, just press the "x" button harder.

Oops. Yeah, definitely was a typo. I've tried pushing it a bit harder but as it's an all-wheel-drive I more often than not end up understeering through - which is making me lose time, unlike a RWD where you can powerslide through. I'll keep at it though.
