Not sure if many of you will be interested in this but I thought it could give all something do aim for.

Having now got used to the MS wheel and now running around the various tracks with all assists turned off apart from Braking line, I thought I would give the Nurburgring a try out to what times I could get with stock cars, no upgrades and only tuning what the car will let you tune at stock.

I propose we see what times we get on the Nurburgring Stage A track (3.10 miles long).

I have chosen this stage as it is short and you wont be as mad if you mess it up on the very last corner because you can restart and it wont take too long to complete.

The car I have chosen will be decent enough for the people new to this game and to those who are long time racers as it is not too powerful or too sluggish.

You can use whatever assists you want, however to get better times you really need to turn a few of them off.

Photo proof is not really needed, just be honest with your time and settings.

***RULES***

1) Stock cars taken from the game in hotlap race mode.
2) No upgrades allowed.
3) You can tune whatever the car lets you tune, (Psi, Aero etc)
4) Only use the car mentioned.
5) The leader, who after the deadline is top can choose the next car to use.
6) You can post better times as you do them, either edit your original time or make a new post.
7) Rewind NOT to be used as then the times will be certified.

also do you guys not think it would be better to dis allow tuning, so
a)we dont have to buy cars to be competitive
b)level playing field and all that
 
The car we will all be using is the same and the only tuning that can be carried out is the tyre pressure so in fairness its a level playing field. You dont need to buy the car anyway as its already free to use in the Hotlap game mode..

The reason I added tuning to the list is that some cars that the Leader on Saturday my choose a car that has more tuning options.

Unless you was on about something that I totaly didnt see?!?
 
ah i thought you said tuning in the sense of air filters cams etc, thats why i said about having to buy cars because i thought people would tune it to c400 and then we all would have to buy it in order to compete with said person
 
No.. I did mention NO upgrades in the OP. Tuning what you can will only have a small effect on the times we all get.

Good time by the way. Looks like I will have to have another go. I do have photo proof of my two times so far. If anyone needs them as proof I will put them up, its just they are on my iphone and cant be bothered to get the usb cable from upstairs to plug it into the PC.
