Let's do this!

I hear the combo is quite fun.  Can't wait to try it myself.

The car looks cool, I just hope I'm fast enough to win it.

My first tip is that you can keep it floored through Eau Rouge.  It's not easy, but it's doable.

After my first stint I'm sitting at 2:17.213  Good enough for 39th USA at this time.

First of all, check out the message at the bottom of this pic. Something is not right here...



This one is tough for me, but I can run a gold time, fairly consistently. Ran it on both ID's.

MMXtreme - 2:20.724

I can improve this, but it won't be much, I'd be lucky to get a 19. I don't care though, I GOT THE CAR!!!!

I got gold, I think I got a 2'19 something high but I don't remember what it was.  Probably could improve if I put my mind to it, that would involve finding it first though :).

GT6 finally dangled a tidbit in front of me I couldn't resist. Most of the time, all I see is a crap car; good track --- crap track; good car.  This time they got both right.

Assembled the wheel and DL'd 2gigs worth of updates.  Bronzed the first 3 rounds for unlocks.

By this time its 9:45pm and I'm fading away to LaLa Land .... but I give it 30-45 minutes to take a few laps around Spa.

GT-R is a ton of fun here.

2:19.3xx  ....... I can make a 2:18 ... so I'll take another second .... and make a 2:17 my goal.

Half dozen times I had no blue lines in front of me at the top of Kemmel Straight ... but my nemesis on this track is turn 10 and 15 .... and the blue lines just pull away. Fix those, and I'll have my 17.

Finally, something to be GT6-excited-about.

regarding 2104, I guess after completing the flux capacitor and travelling back to the 80s to render Monza and Brands Hatch, they skipped ahead too far when trying to go home?

Question, does this car have a Mr. Fusion or still run on plutonium?

I hear you Chrome. Funny It took me a few red laps to get a green in the 2'20.66x range and the whole time I'm chasing either Chrome or MMX lol.

That said as far as fast laps at Spa. Eau Rouge is 6th gear, start there, carry that momentum through and don't brake late. I think you will find a second or two rather soon.

Good times on this one. It is a very long track and depending on the corners you chose to improve on it could lead to lots of found time. Pick the important corners first and stay smooth.

This is so cool, I'm really glad to see you at some racing in GT6. I have just used up my patience getting a gold at spa, but I assure you I will return for a few laps if I can. I must say that is an awesome time you got going and I know you can do way better than that time you think you can make.

Cheers!
