Need for Speed Shift - Time Trial Championship Season 3

Welcome to Season 3

OcUK NFS Shift Championship Season 3 Website (BIG Thanks to Wedge)

Save Game File for those that need it, courtesy of Wedge.
Instructions: Download, unzip, rename the folder & the file (the Folder & File must have the same 'Name' BTW), copy it to "C:\Users\yourname\Documents\NFS SHIFT" folder

Rules:

To avoid any cheating, the car can be tuned and upgraded to whatever you want. (Unless a 'Works Converted', 'Stock', 'Reward' or 'Loaner' car is chosen)
Proof of the lap time will be provided in this thread by either screen shot (e.g. Fraps on PC) or camera shot for console users. This means that this tournament is open to all versions of the game on either PC or console.
Screen shots must be taken at the end of the session. Lap times will not be included from mid race as these times show illegal lap times where corner cuts may have been taken.
Lap must be set in Time Attack mode.
The highest ranking driver on the Weekly Event Leaderboard WITHOUT a nomination gets to choose the next Weekly Event Car/Track Combo. If for whatever reason the highest applicable driver cannot make a nomination in time, then the second highest ranking drivers' nomination will take effect & so on. Nominations are carried over from Season 2. Nominations will be made by e-mail to myself no later than 5pm Saturday. This is because people are eager to start playing and any delays are just plain irritating.
There is/are NFS Shift real mod(s) available for PC. THIS/THESE WILL NOT BE ALLOWED. Console users will be disadvantaged by there use, so DON'T USE THEM PLEASE.
Remember we're here to have fun with a challenge thrown in for good measure

In addition to the Weekly Events there's a Bonus Event running alongside. This particular event is immune to deadline so will continue to run as long as this thread stays alive. Yeah, you guessed it THE NORDSCHLEIFE.

You can use any car you like for the Bonus Event be it from Tier 1, 2, 3, or 4.
You're welcome to participate in both the Weekly & Bonus Events or just pick & choose the Event(s) that suits you.
The Leaderboards for the Weekly Events will remain separate to the Bonus Event

EDIT: good combo

Congrats NIKAZ for Season 2

danswan · 13 Feb 2010 at 18:25

Well done NIKAZ on a second straight season win. Can anyone stop him in season 3?

If I remember rightly, this track saw a lot of very battered cars the last time we raced it...

grs_link · 13 Feb 2010 at 18:31

hmm slippery track though

CK61938 · 13 Feb 2010 at 18:36

Well here's my first entry. and yes danswan, lol that was the reason I chose it, to see how many of us can try not to get it battered lol:

I would be lucky to top out at 1.24 but I think I can see the big boys hitting around 1.22. Let the season begin

666_Pounder · 13 Feb 2010 at 18:49

Set sail for fail!

Preapre to see a very battered car

That reminds me. Is this the track zytok was top for abit before he went to South America or something? Remember I/we used to refer to the driving on this circuit as 'zytok style'.
Where is he I wonder?

Yep he went to South America or somesuch place. Would imagine he might be back by now to batter some more cars up.

mmm I had this car tunned for "The Ring"

I just made the gearbox shorter.. and after a few laps.. it gave me this:

I might be able to go a 1.24 flat if I am a bit more carefull.. not sure about anything faster though.. atleast not without further tunning.

Nikaz.. I you break the 1.20... I am gonna quite alltogether

off for some Bioshock 2 now..
I am working tmrrow.. but I am free on Monday..
so I'll have another go then.
Best of luck to all

chronic86 · 13 Feb 2010 at 19:31

dammmnnnnnnnn i hate this track!

Wedge · 13 Feb 2010 at 19:47

I take it back, this combo is great fun, great choice to open Season 3.

Just had half hour, but looking forward to more laps this week, work permitting.

Its going to be SO difficult to get a clean lap!

Speaking of season 3, i hope we get to drive some cars we have not seen so far, Maclaren F1 springs to mind, so please who is ever is choosing, take the time to see which cars we have not yet driven.

I'm in the 22's & haven't had a clean lap nor touched the tuning yet. So yeah, I'll deffo be hitting sub 20's as long as my game machine holds up.

Merlin5 · 13 Feb 2010 at 19:59

Congrats on season 2 nikaz!

If anyone is going to the royal mile, can you look out for a blue bonnet. It's mine.

Wedge I 100% know were you're coming from on this. I'd love to have a blast in a GT40, McL F1, Zonda etc. I'm sure someone will pick a super car, hope they pick a sensible track to go with it too to assist the New Comers, e.g. Silverstone GP has plenty of run off areas in case you go wide without wrecking your lap time & for the most part, straight.

inam22 · 13 Feb 2010 at 20:25

First effort!!!!!

lewdogga · 13 Feb 2010 at 20:30

Congrats with season 2 nikaz. Yeah it would be good to have a go in some new cars. Have we driven every track? minus the nurburg ring.
I remember this track from last time.. nightmare lol

Well all bar one week in Season 1 I've competed in all & have yet too see;
As you've stated 'The Ring' . We have got to do this at some point. Maybe the last ever Week whenever that may be.

The Tokyo circuit with the Tunnel. Good track if I remember correctly.

The other London track.

The various Dakota tracks. One of which reminds me of US F1 layout @ indy. Wide banking mixed with an infield section. Not that demanding though. Could be used in conjunction with a powerful RWD. I think the other variants are ovals

The rest are so short they haven't any noticeable straights. Hazyview 8 for example

Congraz Nikaz,

First effort
