Need for Speed Time Trial Championship ** Season 2 ** (Multiplatform)

Thanks



Thanks, i've tried Nikaz settings but it did'nt work out for me yet, i'll keep trying still.

Welcome mercyless.
That's a good starting time you've got there. Puts you 8th on the current leaderboard.
This track is very technical & requires smooth throttle control on the snakey sections, especially with this car.

Is there a particular sector/section you're having trouble with or are you just lacking speed generally?

I'll be happy to help out in anyway I can

Also, we've been competing against one another for some ten weeks now, so you're bound to be a little off the pace initially. I personally find the more laps/sessions you do in one sitting helps, helps get in the groove so too speak
 
A little improvement

Oooohh yeah the Exige S! one of my favourite cars!

Shame this game dont have random stock only cars like the wisemein (think thats how you spell it) or the Morgan Aero 8 or the Gumpart, even the Noble M12 would be fun to have.

Yeah it's a shame there's not a more varied selection of cars but they (EA) obviously done a deal with the Audi Group judging by the selection of Audi's, Lambo's & VW's.
You sort of get a Ferrari in the Maserati MC12, I think I read somewhere that's based on the Enzo.

One of the Lotus's is a good shout. Off the top of my head I think one's a tier 2 car, the other tier 3?

so far pff the pace again, i must be playing a different game.

<snip>

having tried NIKAZ settings and watched his video i cant get my car to turn in like that, it just understeers like mad and even with a moderate throtttle input it quickly turns to oversteer on the way out of the corners...

more practice is needed i suppose...

Hi anihcniedam.

What Driving Model are you using? If you're using Experienced try Normal. It's a bit more forgiving on throttle input & offers a bit more grip/stability even with the aids turned off.

I use Experienced & manual gears with those settings I posted & I'm constantly correcting the steering input to keep the car in check.

If you're using an xbox 360 pad, make sure when you move the thumb stick to turn you're actually getting Full left or Full right to obtain FULL LOCK, not UP/DOWN LEFT or UP/DOWN RIGHT if you know what I mean.
 
It's Saturday afternoon with ~5 hours of Season 2 Week 1 to run.

At the time of posting the current standings dictate that;

01. inam22
02. lewdogga
03. danswan

get to submit nominations for Week 2.

You may submit you're nominations via email to:

just14daroad at hotmail dot co dot uk

or if you prefer, you may post your nominations between 5pm & 6pm in this very thread

Not trying to govern you're selection but if you could consider a lower Tier or Stock car so as to make this competition more accessible to Newcomers that would be greatly appreciated.
 
Nikaz just had a quick look and all the cars in tier 1 & 2 are with the nitrous upgrade.

Yeah I know. Also I'm not sure if someone with only Tier 2 available, can actually buy upgrades passed level 2 anyhow. e.g. So, fair enough the car's available but their stuck at level 2 upgrades while we're all FULL WORKS. Still an uneven playing field.

Pick what you want inam, you've earned the right after all.
 
Just tried to send you email on [email protected] but got Delivery Status Notification back so i am posting my nomine here.

My selection for this week car/track combo is Audi R8 4.2 FSI quattro at Ambush Canyon. I am not a big fan of this track though but the only reason i have picked this track is because we haven't raced here yet and you can get sold 4 laps in as well and car does provide you with plenty of grip for twisty parts of the track.Have a go with this combination and let me know what you think.

If you are not happy for any reason i don't mind if you go with any other nominees for car/track combo.

You remembered the 'hotmail' bit yeah?

Excellent Combo. Very varied track, speedy, twisty & undulates with a tunnel for good acoustics.

Just to verify. The car tunable yes?
 
Just had a few more laps, no more from me.
<snip>

As for my selection, i also reckon Ambush Canyon, a good track we havent done yet. As for the car i think we should make it a stock car, so that it appeals to more people and narrows it down to driver skill alone. Such as mercedes benz SL65 AMG maybe?? Either way though im happy with any selection:)

what about the audi R8 LMS reward car you get at level 20 ?

lewdogga
How about Audi R8 LMS (suggested by anihcniedam) at Ambush Canyon (suggested by yourself & inam)

OK with that?
 
Just a quick q about last weeks...

Which car were u guys using?

I bought the DB9 and added all upgrades (works not available) only got 1.55....was that the same car or were you driving the reward version??

I hope it was the better version as I was almost 10 secs off the pace...although to be fair I hate Astons.

The purchasable one
 
Ahh i see, thats a good way of doing things.
Wow this car is a beast and quite a few bumps that can catch you out
Apologies if I wasn't clear enough on that. If we get a good 20 drivers for example it maybe a long wait in the cue, 20 weeks if everybody makes a nomination. Of course on occasion people are unavailable or wish to pass in which case your turn will come round quicker.
At the moment it seems a fair balanced way to give everybody an opportunity to nominate

OP updated
 
Ambush Canyon... that was exactly my thought...
that and laguna seca with a rear wheel drive car... it should make it interesting..
something like an M3..

Canyon it is then.. off I go.. :)

I missed out Laguna Seca first time round
Laguna Seca & one of the new stock muscle cars would be my pick
