GT5 Stock GT86 Competition - April 2012

[Deslock]

I. INTRODUCTION

This is a friendly GT5 "buy and drive" competition in which we race the GT86 (bone stock) on different tracks each month in GT practice mode.

It's just for fun, so even if your time isn't the fastest don't hesitate to join in (and feel free to ask for tips).

II. TRACKS

1. Deep Forest Raceway
2. Trial Mountain

Feel free to post track suggestions, and I'll include them in next month's poll.

III. RULES

1. Stock car (no mods, aftermarket rims, tuning, aero, or anything!)
2. Traction Contol = Off
3. ABS = 0 or 1
4. Grip = Real
5. Stock Sport Hard tires
6. Driving line is allowed, but not recommended (it's a crutch with little-to-no advantages... and the game is more fun without it)
7. No other aids
8. Oil change, engine rebuild, and chassis restoration are allowed
9. Valid lap times only
10. No cheating!

Ugh why did they move this to off-topic. This still relates to the GT86...

I asked Hachiroku if a competition (not street) racing subforum could be added. If this stays in Off-Topic, it's probably done after this month (given the weak turnout). It's too bad as it's been fun.

Didn't even know this was still going its gotten buried far down in off topic
