You'd be just as annoying as those people.

How much HP should I be at stock for the 97 Civic? Mine has stage 1 upgrades and there aren't any un-molested ones in the used lot at the moment.

[EeePee]

1:51.882

Go buy a new one. I'm at

181 hp
1050 kg
393 pp

Don't forget sport hard tires. Car has a real good balance to it right around its limit. Partial throttle through corners and floating between under steer and going where you want it to go. Nice.

[helhedded]

1:56.346 after about 10 laps. Could be faster if a I cheated through the zig zag.

[EeePee]

Hey good start! its a weird track at first then it comes to ya and flows.

'08 Civic Type R 1:48.816
'01 Civic Type R 1:48.178
'97 Civic Type R 1:51.882

Clean laps. Two tires inside the white lines.

I'm working on opening a lobby. I inherited one called "just fun" and I got that set up for the Nürb GP/D and 400 pp and sport hard tires.

I was telling my coworkers about my consistent times, well call me captain consistent. It's been like this too much lately, battling myself for thousandths of seconds. I don't want consistent, I want faster!

Though, consistently fast isn't a bad thing ...

I did that last night! but mine were identical down to the thousandths... I was watching the ghost then he disappeared right at the finish line

[EeePee]

This will be tough.

By the way, pretty sure I can set up a lobby for us, just not sure about privacy. But I could probably set the number of entrants to suit just the few us. Or figure out the privacy.

I looked in the lobby section for the first time today. Before I thought online mode was more of a "setup a race with your current online buddies" but it appears that you're really just comparing your times and runs with real online people on a specific race. Is that right or is their another aspect that I'm missing? I am such a ps3 n00b. I've owned it for a couple years now and played a little here and there. My Speedhunters addiction is causing me to get all GT up in this piece.

You're missing something. It's above Seasonals, called Open Lobby. Then it connects to their server and you choose a room. Check out the icons on the bottom for regulations and then you can watch or enter a race.

For instance, I would set up a room called RCCrawlers with restrictions (pp/tires/car type/etc.) of sorts. Set the laps/time/weather, wait for entrants (who can drive around in the meantime until I decide to start the race), then it'll countdown to the start. Then it starts us based on I think the order you entered, or possibly based on the time of your first flying lap in practice. Then we start on the grid from a standstill and go.

The biggest difference is that you're against real people and not the mediocre AI racers. I was in a room last night that was moderated for crying out loud and he would boot ya if you run into people. Top guys were so damn fast I was all alone most of the time with one other guy behind me.

Thanks for the info. I was in the open lobby section on my lunch break but did not have time to really dig into it. I'd get booted after the first turn in that room that you were in last night

p.s. I know the difference in between dirty and clean racing, but accidents happen

<---- purchased the Formula GT last night. Holy Fark! Now I know why they make these!

[EeePee]

****er.

I've been told by many people my times will absolutely drop if I get a wheel. Maybe when GT6 comes out I will. And a new tv, mine's from the early 90's.

i caved about a year ago and got a playseat with the logitech g27 wheel, shifter, and pedals. its a way big investment but it completely changes the game... some of the home-made racing setups ive seen online are badass!

[EeePee]

I got friends with PVC frames for racing seats. I understand where this can lead me.

I got Gold in the Vettel crack car this week on the time trial with the controller. I think I'm content. Until GT6.

I don't know what that is yet but it sounds awesome

[EeePee]

Try the newest Seasonal. You'll learn what the crack car is.

Wanna run? I'll make a room.

We can get a room.

lol, sure I have some time




and I just won a prototype car. love. this. game.

[EeePee]

Try the newest Seasonal real quick to check out the Vettel car, while I load shit up.

I'll call it RCCrawler. Hope it works, we were having compatibility issues last night. Something about server host something something. If that's the case, we just find another room that we both can drive in and deal with it.
