Si - I think maybe you should have called the thread GT3 challenge or something

The bloody missus is watching TV so I have to wait til later - 1:13 should be no problem for me. What car did you use (obeying the rules of course that Ian and I set)

THE best car ever was in GT2- FTO LM - not as fast as the big boys but it stuck like **** to a blanket.

i read you could load aGT2 garage into GT3 but it never worked for me.

PS2 coming soon.

Well done Si, was that in the ZZII? If so what setup you using, tyres, gears, suspension etc?

I watched the logger laps last night - I can make up some time on some of the bends so will try and oust you later on.

But the Pennzoil is a race car - the original challenge was only with road cars. So your 2 seconds looks a bit naff now.

Try with a road car.

Yeah and about 300kg less weight, and with spoilers - power to weight my friend.

Will see what I can get in the race cars if I still have them - think I sold them all to fund another vehicle

Si - race cars are too easy - just point and squirt. It is much harder to get a strong time with a road going car.

We will move onto race cars next week

Altered brake bias to something silly like 24/20 - still crap though, have to brake early.
Lower the gearing - really helps. Change up early in corners to minimise wheelspin. Then on the exit let rip with 1121bhp!
