This is exactly what im doing right now...

After a few tweaks of a tune SaintedPlacebo was clocked with a new personal best. Expect to see an unprecedented time posted prior to the race in the 911 GT3.... Goal time...

Kinda surprised to say this but the pole lap for GS in an Exige from season 7 will be beat. Normally I refrain from posting this type of thing unless I know the time will fall but since I've already ran nearly a second up on that time. Just wow.

Bet those Caddy's are having fun around here

@Sainted: You're running the 355 Challenge in GS next season?

Yepper. Got myself a little goodbye present from someone on here and i cant say no to running it.

Its one of the 5 best cars at Base PI

Yeah so is an Aston Martin.

Not quite. None of the Aston's are on the list of best cars at 635

You think an Aston is good at base PI but its not. The DBS is 3400lbs at base PI and the vantage is just a little lighter. Those cars can't get the race weight reduction at 635 unless you cheat and glitch the car. The lowest the DBS can go without glitching is 636 with those nasty heavy wheels.

what? you mean using a glitch to do something that should be in the game? I say they should have a "take out forced induction" button. Im a little confused because in the vantage i got the weight redux in with no tired wdtch at base and the one youre in i wanna say i have the weight and a bit of width if not full width at base. no glitching either. and thats at 635 i think. although i do admit its a been a long while sincei built either of those cars. i just remember that the dbs or dbs had a lot more that you could do at base than the vantage. but regardless at base those cars are still fast. faster than a lot of cars on the list.

Not this again lol. Anyways, don't see me doing a repeat of last week. Especially if some are running a full second faster than season 7 pole time. Just going to shoot for a lobby in general. Hope to see a good group to practice with tonight.

Sainted you may want to check your build on the Aston you must not have race tires on. At 647 I have full weight reduction and race intake and lighter rim. I think that's all I have on mine maybe a drive shaft not sure

That's more than my corvette at 655

I deffinately built your car and i have full weight and width at 647. that i know for certain. with lightest rims.

Aston DBS 645 PI

510hp
420ft-lbs
2,973lbs

Full tire width and Konigs.
If i take off all the tire width and leave stock rims i get 635 with the same hp and just the weight of the rims added to it. (3,037lbs)
///////////////////////////////////////////
Aston V12 Vantage 638 PI

511hp
420ft-lbs
3,064lbs

Stock rims and no tire width


Btw at Base my posche would weigh 2944lbs and have only 415 hp. just saying. 100hp difference and the same lateral g's

Why does it matter? All the cars/drivers are equal now. I know that might sound bias, but I'm happy to get a PI drop. Shows that I'm getting better in my opinion.

I think of it as the lower your PI the faster you are. And as for throwing up the numbers i just wanted to show them i was sure about the supposed builds.

We all know sainted. It's just a sour subject with the Aston guys. Just tired of talking/hearing about it is all. No offence.

its all good man. Ill be on later tonight btw.

Cool. I would Ike to run some laps with the super beetle lol. If I can keep up with you then I have a good shot at A lobby. Just having a hard time not cooking the front left tire. Don't know if that is just part if this track, or if I have a serious issue. Makes it hard to run consistent lap times.

might be over driving it? i found that if i actually ran a really awkward line i could chop a second off what i was hitting the other day. You would think i was a mad man but it works for me.

Yeah, I can run consistent slow time if I do that lol. I hope to figure something out soon.

All I said was that the 355 Challenge is one of the best cars at Base PI, which is a factual statement.

I was never trying to start an argument nor do I need someone who thought putting the viper engine in a challenger would be a good idea trying to tell me how to build my car. Your builds DO NOT have race brakes and/or race suspension. Who in their right mind builds a car with stock suspension? I can tell that just from the PI you posted. 638 is not base PI, it just happens to be the PI I am at

So when I say that the last 2 cars I have raced in this series are not good at Base PI (635) they are not good. 1 person in this series can run them fast at that PI, 1 and we know who he is and he is the only person in the series right now that's quicker than me

You two should get a clue and maybe you should drive my car at my PI and see where you are compared to me cause I'll knock your socks off if I race at your PI in your cars. Stop using PI as a crutch

I was trying to get him to drop it. Something is really wrong with you Matt. You been hanging out with swan lately?

I could send you the builds? they do have race brakes and race suspension. And im not nearly as good as you are maybe thats why you are finishing ahead of me with 27 less pi? All im saying is that if i was to run my porsche and that aston at the same pi *my* times would be extremely different. tell me right now that at base PI the gt3 911 could beat a base pi dbs? no way in hell.
and you serious bout the challenger? maybe you dont understand thats called screwing around bud, i would always go with the lightest possible build but hey if im messing around in something i would never drive why not make it unreal?

Point blank. a 635 pi porsche 911 is slower than a 635 aston dbs. prove me wrong. and in the dbs you cant even upgrade the brakes.... sooo nice going.

I see this building. Chest thumping. I don't agree with some of it. Ido firmly believe certain game variables help, or hinder drivers who could be equal making one appear slower than the other. (Easily proven). As for the rest, lets let this one slide into the area of unnecessary banter, and let it go please.

no prob pred.
