[NESW20]

i wish i had more time! i never get your messages until way late and then no one's online when i can race. i swear we'll race one of these days, just been really hectic.

my truck got hit on Friday, so i spent all day today running around to the body shop, calling insurance agents, and generally having the MOST FUN EVER. haha

Get on right now! 3 of us are on. 70NYD was on, but he left. Good race 70NYD!

[70NYD]

i didnt leave my net dropped out..
sorry about that btw
it was awesome races, but the sports soft tires suck balls on this much power, i cant do anything without spinning out hurry up and all get racing soft

[ichitaka05]

Man, we had a 4 FT86c race tonight/today. Want.FR-S, 70NYD, Jay4prez & me. It was pretty hard race w Sport tires (soft), but I think we had fun time (well I did anyways). Jay cheating w his new G27. Now, only thing he's missing is playseat.

Tsukuba race was awesome. First race, I win, second Jay and last one, Want.FR-S was doing good til we got heated up and bump here and there also some notice we cannot write "TSUKUBA" wonder why?

I was wondering bout that. I was like, did he got pissed and logged off?

I have 2 of each FT86c, so I've setup one for Sports tires and one for Racing tires... but man, sports tire races are harder than racing tires, no grip.

or we could even have FT86c drift challenge.

[70NYD]

sports tires work very well for drift, esp sports hard, soft work too but :p
best combo is sports on back racing soft on front
haha nah im not that hot tempered to just quit :p i did find that my comp mic works with the ps3 (like i said ps3 newb here) so thats pretty kewl

haha, its a 25, but definitely some fun races, I'm getting so used to the car now.

Definitely need that playseat man.

Damn I missed the battle! Crap.

I got the drift thing on LOCK so, bring it....lol.

Sport Tire races...hmm..haven't tried much in way of Sport tires. I have all sports and all racing tires purchased though.

You missed it, it was fun!

Yeah, sports tire is way harder to drive. Just wanna drift through the corner. lol

I think, I've bought all the tires on one of FT86c, but not all of my FT86c have every tires.

[Want.FR-S]

So I was the one new to this game. Gee.. relying on the driving line so much for proper braking. Anyhow, I probably need one extra ft-86 for sport tire and another one for the g sport. Somehow I find that the N/A one seems to be better handling.

Anyway, having too much power on sport tire is not for grip race.

@Ichi, thanks for the one-on-one lesson on tuning the car. I learned a lot about the suspension settings now. Just need to keep on trying.

This?

Black flat surface. No detailing on the undercarriage, and probably for all the cars.

[RRnold]

Damn looks like I missed a good session yest! I went on around 10:30ish PST and saw Jay, Ichi and Travis but went to the lounge and nobody was there.

Travis, how do you set it up for driftings? Is is only the brake bias all to the front?

I have the Rocketfish bluetooth bonded and all but I can't hear anything. Its connected to Settigns/Accessories Settings/Manage Blue Tooth Device and I could hear the volume button when I press it but no RX or TX!?!

#Edit-Found out the issue
{I just fought with mine for about half an hour and found this out, figured id help. When it says in the instructions to go into the Audio device settings page and change the level, below that it says input device and output device. you also have to change that to the RF-QX3. The instructions are a little vague on doing that. Then try talking and u should be able to hear yourself while on that page. good luck with that. hope it works}

[Dragonitti]

^^Yeah I was just about to say, you need to change it in the Device Input/Output part.

Just upgraded the FT86c, now I need to adjust my trans.
