TuTu April 23 2013 - The First Thanksgiving
« on: April 19, 2013, 07:09:54 AM »

It's throwback night at TuTu. We're attempting to re-create the first GT5 TuTu with a similar car and feel. That first TuTu featured the premium late-80s Toyota Supra with full damage. We started the night at Madrid with a smallish crowd (I remember myself, Rodeo and someone else being there)... we had a hell of a time finding pit entrance so we moved to Deep Forest where more people joined and chaos ensued. I remember the first race and going into the first tunnel, someone checked up and everyone ran into the back of them causing damage that required 3/4 of the field to pit on lap 1. So it's like the first Thanksgiving and how we celebrate it every year but with our own small changes (like less smallpox, better communication, and less hostility*). Well, even tho this isn't TuTu's anniversary, I figured we'd celebrate it, but with some slight changes (namely: the car).

Car: Nissan Fairlady Z 300ZX TT 2seater (Z32) '89

Stock. Oil change, paint and wheels allowed.


Restrictions:
Tuning: Prohibited
Tires: Comfort Soft (fast wear)
Damage: On
Lounge: TuTuTuna
Opening Track: Deep Forest


*family dependent.

Dammit,
I've got to see a man about a horse tonight.

Not really a horse, but a fine, stinky, sticky bag of medicine. :jimi:

I was surprised at how well that car handled and on comfort soft tires no less.

Really good times.
