LOL guys.  Tilt left and its a female moose, tilt right and its a boot.  I still vote for dick gun though 

I like Willow Springs a lot.  It frustrates the hell out of me, but I like it.  2 corners give me fits almost every lap I turn.

DRC at night is my fav.  Simply beautiful.  Apricot Hill is a very close second.  That track has a great flow.  Ascari long version is my nightmare.  I cant find any rhythm at the place. (rhythm is a really weird word to spell)

I agree Charlie, I don't mind so you don't Matterhorn is fun as hell!!!

Like the new courses Ascari can be car dependent and Willow just never has felt quite right to me. Bathhurst and all the Matterhorns have all been comfortable since lap one on them.

I don't know that I would call Matterhorns comfortable.  If I was driving it in real life, my passenger would be screaming like a girl.  Not me though I'm tough. I wouldn't scream.  I didn't while driving it in GT6.  Really I didn't.  I'm a tough guy.

Maybe comfortable was a poor choice but not sure how to explain some places just feel "right". I am sure we all have our own places like this.

I know what you mean.  I do like the track.

I'll hang with you G211, because I so far, hate willow springs too.  It's beautiful, but the corners are very hard to read, a lot like the really bad course creator ones from "5" (not referring to the really good ones that did occasionally get made)

correction... I wasn't even aware of that  twistier one... what was it called  the "Streets" of willow?

THAT one was awesome.  Good flow and easier to read than the big one, which I still don't care for too much, even though the racing with you guys was fun last night!

With a little imagination, Willow Springs' track outline, looks fish like.


I agree, the track is a little tough to read, but I like it. There's a short variation that is just brutal though.

Or a dick gun...    :laugh

My almost-ten-year old and I agree.  We both thought it looked like a thick schlong and a BallisticTuna (ball sack).

Charlie was very impressive with the Christmas jingle.  My son's birthday is that night, as well as Monday Night Football, but I might see if I can't make it for a few races.

Charlie is not a Grinch or Bad Santa, so here's a stocking stuffer for you fishes...

As for tuning, anything goes as long as you make specs...

I will post them up just as soon as I break-in  my Delahlah.

so far, I've gotten added power from oil but haven't noticed any gain from break-in.  Have I just missed it?
