FINAL car poll season 10

ok, that was just my opinion as well lol.

if you think i am that confident of 1st place in the mazda, then just wait till the first race comes along. i dont for one second think i can regularly beat warrior, i still think E is our fastest guy, but lacks consistency (but wait till the season starts).
and yes, we regularly have rooms with people from multiple divisions.

the whole series isn't meant to have tuning, as that just adds a whole element and is unfair to people that may have more practice time compared to those that don't. i admit, i frankly wouldn't be bothered with tuning, especially if someone finds some random glitch setup that is magically half a second faster, not sure if they've patched all those things.

but not racing which really at the end of the day apart from a bit of fun is why your doing GT5 rather than something else like BF3, COD2 etc etc etc, because whilst we'd like to be doing the real thing we can't afford it, however what I'm suggesting is structured similar to the real thing compared to how it's setup at the mo.
There is miles of difference between your & my skill on the track & you want to drive exactly the same car as I'm driving in div 4?

I've heard that before, three quick ways I can answer that
1. Those that make the time prosper
2. Those that unfortunatly find it impossibe to find any other time are down with me in div 4, better than bugger all.
3. Those that do have the spare time for practice but rather choose to do other things, need I say more

E.g. Right now instead of practicing on GT5 I'm iracing = div 4, everyone has excuses but in the end You only benifit & get out what you put in

implying the nissan is some kind of weapon of a car to drive?
in our practice room last night (with all divisions included), the mazda handled better if anything than the nissan, the nissan pulled away a little bit but wasn't at all pulling a huge lead, we still kept up with it.

Cool now ramp it up to 650pp (rx7 or 350z) and try it out at against some real div 1 competition without any rookies in the way and let me know what you think, cause I'm curious as hell now.

I understand what your saying but I'm not trying to reinvent anything, if you go back to my orig post Yesterday 8:07 pm I was putting the idea out there as a suggestion to be included in the vote. Only been 12hrs so only 3 people have commented so far

I shall make it 4 then...

The idea/concept as such is OK, but not for this league. The Sunday league here has prospered on the basis of simplicity. One car for all, no tuning. We used cars from the recommended garage until we got the tuning prohibited option in the race rooms. As Cyber said, the best challenge is the competition, not the car you are in. The seasons I have enjoyed most are the ones in the 'tame' cars where you concentrate more on the opposition than keeping the car on the road (anyone remember my frustration in the ZR1 RM season?).

The no tuning option evens out the field a little for those who can't practice much. Those who do, prosper, but not as much as they would if hours of tuning was involved. Also, the practice rooms filled with folks from all divisions is one of the best parts of this site. The banter is generally good, and the slower guys can get tips etc from the faster guys.

thats right Barra thats how i learnt

Thanks Stu, Very well said

Stu is right because as i said i enjoy trying to chase the other better drivers and practice is made easy because we all run the same cars which meens the only advantage is the skills they have with there driving and they kindley help acheive better and to be honest with you i would not have it any other way Col

may i put my 2cents in?

forget the fanfare and flapping of arms ....i don't care - let's get this racing started!!!!!


at the end of the day, if you can tell that 3 or 4 people in div 4 are winning by a large margin, fastest laps and completed race times, much quicker than div 3 = you can easily tell because we all use the same car across all divisions.

this makes existing drivers to the league noticed for their skill level and the appropriate divison for the next league.

new league-goers qualify (like me) for a time and are compared against the existing leaguer's. this is what makes each division sporting close racing with similar skill.


if you have all divisions using different cars, you can really only tell their skill against others within their own division.

C63 is my pick too, not getting much love tho.

Just colour the circle in with a black or blue pen cyber. No ticks or crosses, and no red pen, cause the system wont recognise it

sorry this is probably a daft question, but do we all have to race the same car?
