    No one expects the Spanish Inquisition.

    Ken, I like your new number plates, I dropped one on my newly Rainbowed 360 CS. Not sure if that's what we're using, but I liked em.

    Also the new Corvette R3 car is really fun, this is the first sub-R2 Corvette racecar right? I might have to play with this for a new go to R3 car.

    The Race Corvettes in the game were from the Le Mans GT1 class which havent been a factory-run car since 2009 when they switched to the GT2 class (which is what the new DLC car is). Nowadays GT1 is sort of a dead class, its used in the FIA GT1 World Championship or whatever its called but in Le Mans series theres basically just GT2 (I think in ALMS its just called "GT").

    Thanks! Veevee was right, they look much better in the horizontal.

    I just did the new Corvette rival challenge, and god damn that is a sweet ride. I always find it difficult in R class cars, but that thing handles like a dream.

    now I'm super confused because the 1995 M5 was already on the list but I dont even remember it being there D:

    But I did just now realize that the BMW 850CSi is literally impossible to get under the 3800lb maximum weight limit and stay B class so I ask you guys: Remove the car or up the limit?

    I think completely changing the rules for one single car is a bit silly, so just axe the thing.

    Bah, you don't count. Nobody will ever see you again after the first 10s of the race!

    Also agree with killing the 850CSi.

    Is the vintage soda sponsor livery a thing for this series? I haven't even started painting yet.

    I should do that...and pick an S class car...and get the new number plate...and stop playing Diablo...

    What's the final verdict of the C63 AMG Black Series? Add it or no? Someone made the row on the spreadsheet but didn't fill out any data.

    I haven't even touched my GT3 RS, still have no idea what I want to do with it.

    May just copy my Husqvarna livery, but it's not as funny since the Porsche doesn't sound anything like a weedwhacker like the RX-7

    We might end up being de-facto teammates. In messing around last night for a bit, I'm leaning towards one of the Mercedes in S class.

    I'll be the anchor weighing down team germany.

  • groovegroove Enforcer SeattleRegistered User regular
    Beware those mercs, they have incredibly hard shifting transmissions. If you shift from 2nd to 3rd in the middle of a turn, and you're full sideways before you know it. I'm having to either short shift or lift when shifting on longer turns

    Yeah, Catalunya is great for learning to finesse the shifting.
