NorCal GT6 online and discussion

Just a reminder there's 6 days left on the G37 super lap event to be ranked online.

You guys are way too fast and I couldn't keep up. I hate willow springs, the G37 handles like crap and throttle over-steers too much and the Rocket was awesome until I added power to keep up. On the otherhand, loooooving the Evo Chamonix TT, even though I am yet to gold it, I could keep going around that track at full-oppo all day.

That snow is fun! You're not far off from gold. You'll get it.

Sorry I kind of let this event slip my mind, but the G37 Super Lap has now completed its online ranking period. Not too many participants from our group this time around, but here are the rankings:


Congrats to @sdlynx (BuMonkey) for the fastest lap!
I found this one really hard to get in a clean lap, and it looks like everyone gave it a fair go without the SRF aid this time around.

I see there were 3 new seasonal events just added yesterday, so let me know if you guys would like to make another one of these events our next little competition.

That G37 was terrible. I wound up breaking into the 1:11's eventually, but it took a decent while. Time didn't count since it's too late for it to register.

Just tried out the Elise Race Car special event. Got me a 5 second lead on you guys

The Elise event was really fun, but I'm yet to gold it. Just grinding away on the IB career mode since I'm too cheap to buy the Diablo.

SC David, I don't think I have you set up as a friend on PS. Send me a request. My PS name is Bumonkey. ---Yeah, It'd take a lot of explaining.

Okay, now I'm back to 2nd place and STILL am not using Skid Recovery Force. My only help is ABS at 1. #nonanniesftw

You show up on mine, I think we're friends. My SN is rcaguitar.

Oh and damn, now I'm the cheater. I used SRF for the Elise event. With SRF on, that Elise handles like it's being sucked into the ground. So much fun!

No, you're not a cheater! LOL. I'm just determined to try not to use SRF. Enjoy the game! SRF on or off . I was just stoked I was able to keep up with it off.

I forgot about your SN on PS. Doh!

I don't see it as cheating, if you look at the world-wide standings, pretty much everyone at the top has it on.

hahaha well if the rules/system allows you to turn it on, then it's not cheating. But I prefer to drive unassisted as much as possible (yes ABS is a crutch I do rely on) because I think it will have the best likelihood of making me a better driver.
