SM GT4 Challenge!

[MKIIINA]

Thought it'd be fun to have a challenge each week with a mk3 supra on a different track. To start things off, a Laguna Seca Time trial with a Turbo A (unmodified except for soft tires). You don't have to buy the car, just go to the arcade section, them time trial, then mazda raceway/laguna seca, then pick toyota, and Turbo A.

Do Not change the power or weight (in the "quick tune up"), but put on the softest tires available (sports soft i believe).

Current time to beat: 1'42.546

mines faster...... 1'42.135........ read my post on page 1

oh nice time. Updated first post

 

[MKNTRAXX]

best so far
1'42.787

still playing with my lines in 1 and 2 though

 

[MKNTRAXX]

Still don't have this Turbo A you guys keep talking about.. (take a pic)
using the JZA70 .. The Toyota Supra 2.5 Twin turbo R.. untouched

I just ran a 1'41.799

edit.. that dropped to a 1'41.621

Hmm, I guess it isn't just a standard car everyone can get at the beginning -- my bad. For the weekend, lets do the exact opposite. Fully built mk3 (7m or jz). I think MKIIINA ought to pick the track since he was fastest with the 7m (the jz has another 50hp on it)

Man, I could only muster a 142.4xx. I've gotten quite rusty and haven't adapted to all the new detail of GT4.

 

[Boostedstr8six]

Whittled it down to 1:41.553 :burnout:

 

[MKIIINA]

Thanks MA71SUPRATURBO for letting me pick the next track I'm going to set it up like this:

Turbo A is the car of preferance but the 1JZ can be used is it has the same HP (or less) as the challenge starters car. (Makes it even and people can then use both cars)
Challenge starter can post their times as a benchmark for people to start for.

new challenge for the weekend:
Costa di Amalfi - Forward
2'04.722
Car: Turbo A 88
HP: 400
Mods:
Port+Polish
Racing Exhaust
Chip
Sport tires Medium
Turbine stage 2
Racing IC
Racing Brakes
Racing Suspension
Normal Trans
Triple PLate clutch
Racing flywheel

Rollcage
Lightweight stage 2

I'm going to set it up like this:
The winner of the previous round cannot win 2x in a row.

:wtf: That's retarded. That totally negates the point of having a competition.

You're on! :arcadefre

 

[MKNTRAXX]

ok..I think the car should always be the jza70(keeps it simple as everyone has access to it)..

Only mods should be power and weight in the quick tune up..

this keeps it very simple and effective

 

[Boostedstr8six]

Just want to double check that this is supposed to be on "sport" tires medium?
