Dave 09-29-2006 10:29 PM

because its a fwd turbo dodge forum, silly. now then this forum being predominantly subaru im sure we could do one featuring some version of the wrx. or maybe a wrx vs evo time attack

240sxDann 09-29-2006 11:32 PM

yea, best time I got was like, idk, close to 8 minutes. pffft gay

jspek 09-29-2006 11:33 PM

what do you mean not cheating? And what was your time? Cuz I MIGHT have you beat, or at least be close to you.

jspek 09-30-2006 12:30 AM

7.66 i think

240sxDann 09-30-2006 12:55 AM

wow yea you got me. I think I was goin around 7.8 last time I ran it.

Dave 09-30-2006 07:22 AM

down to 7'06.xx the neon is actually pretty capable

oh, i prepped my time attack spec c just in case

I was wondering when someone would post a challenge like this.:mrgreen: I managed a 6’51.812 in the SRT-4 (no nitrous of course.) For sh!ts and giggles I ran a 6’39.803 in the Evo VIII MR. But I think I can run a better time in the Spec C WRX. (I’ll try tomorrow.)

I can record the replay on tape and bring it to a meet as proof. Yes, I’m from the “old school” however, I can kick some azz in this game.:afro:

Hrm, almost makes me wish i played more than two hours of gt4. I even bought the super logitech wheel/pedal combo. I just couldn't find it as fun as gt2 or gt3. It really was like pokemon with cars...i loved the old restrictions in gt2, made for a much more challenging game.

I was a little disoriented when I went from GT3 to GT4. But once I realized the physical movements of the cars, the inputs between the car and the controller/wheel (and the roads/tracks) had been redefined to simulate more realism, it immediately “clicked” for me. The very first track on my hit list was the Nurburgring.

I’ve got the wheels and pedals, too.:wink: My “adult” friends think I’m absolutely off my rocker.

Like I said... "old school" hommie!:mrgreen:

Actually, I'm not sure how to upload the replay to a computer. I'll snap a pick of the time when I get home... I'm at work right now.

By the way, I’ve got 8-Track also. It rocks.

vDevilu 10-03-2006 12:19 PM

I know what I am doing on my lunch break :driving:

DropTopChevy 10-03-2006 12:33 PM

I know I atleast got one run under 7 minutes with the indy car.

vDevilu 10-03-2006 02:21 PM

I don't have the mopar
but in 2001 wrx stage 3 turbo. I think my final drive was 4.20 and i had the torque set at 20% front 80% back running racing soft tires.
1st run 7'28
2nd 7'15

i went off tarmac a couple times so i know there's improvement.

Dave 10-03-2006 04:00 PM

nice times! i have tomorrow off so we'll see what my spec c is capable of

Does anyone know how to save/upload the replay to a website to view publicly? If anybody knows I'll post the replay on StreetFire or some other site.

You can probably beat the Evo's time with the Spec C. Before I left the house, I had 5 minutes to kill so I picked the Spec C. I immediately flew by my Evo as soon as I crossed the starting line. It was so fast I wasn't expecting it and then crashed.:mrgreen: I haven't had a chance to give it a real go yet.

**EDIT** I posted the pic of the SRT-4's time at the bottom of page one.:wink:

Matt2.8NJ 10-04-2006 09:31 PM

6:59.222 !!! Getting there.

Setting this thing up to avoid wheelspin is damn near impossible.

AWD FTW!!

Dave 10-04-2006 10:43 PM

tried the spec c, almost there but i need to tune the understeer out. spending toomuch time in the grass ;)

You should post our times on the SRT-Forum. Will we get a prize, too?:mrgreen:

Dave 10-05-2006 09:17 AM

maybe, but do you really want a turbo-mopar.com sticker?

P.S. while there are some srts its more of a omnidaytonashadowlebaronetc forum :)

O.K. As I suspected, I beat my time in the Evo pretty easily with the Spec C. I ran a 6’31.061. The car can go faster because at one point I was beating that time and then spun out. Suspension settings with this car are critical because it’s initially a very loose car. I was able to iron out the suspension and it handled fairly well.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...SpecCTimes.jpg

This car is fast, faster than its horsepower rating and weight would suggest. To test this theory I modified a Z06 to 700hp (naturally aspirated, full weight reduction, the works) and I STILL had a very hard time keeping up with the Spec C. Although the Z06 posted faster lap times, in the first few laps the Spec C left me in the dust. Try it and you’ll see what I mean.

I make a motion to restrict the Spec C from competing with any car in the 4 cylinder category. It’s just too damn fast. If you’re a gambling man you can rob the mess out of some unsuspecting fool in a Spec C in this game.:mrgreen:

I’m open to any requests by the way.:wink:

Pretty quick indeed. Curious as to why he started recording at 3’46.xxx. I would’ve liked to see the run from the beginning.

I guess I can still do more fine-tuning to the car.:wink:

Spec C or Evo?

Dave 10-08-2006 01:02 PM

i think he got that time in a srt-4. i recently ran a 6'59. then tried a lower downforce/stiffer suspension setup with some wild camber and lost a second

SRT-4....remember the title of the thread :)

I'm below 5:30 in my "Nurburgring" set-up Toyota Minolta. Trying to get into the 5:15 range.

haha yea the only thing that beats the spec c is like full blown le mans cars. i think they screwed up when making the car in the game. nothing can touch it.

It was a little outrageous because I was trying to find and even match for the Spec C, however, I had to use more and more sophisticated cars with ridiculous power levels. Finally I said "screw it," and picked the Z06.:rolleyes: The Spec C doesn’t accurately reflect its power level and weight.

Yeah, the designers were a little “off” on this car. But I still love the game.:wink:
