erm whats this "bracket time" all about??

Stuart
20-08-03, 10:44 PM
the game is all well and good, but it crashes at any chance it gets,

try not to change gear as you go over the finish line, this seems to instigate a crash.

Mark
24-08-03, 08:05 PM
Run the EASY tournement, work out what time you can consistantly run and put the bracket very slightly under. While racing if the oponent 'breaksout' drop the throttle and coast in making sure you don't go under you bracket time.

Some bloke challenged me earlier to a $700 heads up, If honest I don't usually bother with challenges while i'm building the car up but thought I'd have a go, messed the start up and ran a 9.3 :cry:
Turns out he fouled :D
So a free $700

Mark
25-08-03, 02:29 PM

Alex
25-08-03, 06:40 PM
s**t i just challenged you for $200 and it fooken crashed wtf!

thats twice it happend i lost $500 this afternoon the same way :evil:

That is really lucky, as i hit the gear up button instead of accelerating. I started the race in 5th gear :o ! Did it in 10.9 which isnt bad for a 5th gear start

to get on the Evo leaderboard I need to run 8.0 which is like doing 8.4 in the Civ

$30k for the Evo, sold the Civic for $20k then spend all of it on everything for the Evo lol

net surfing with a 200 should be fine.... the net is the slowest part

Stuart
26-08-03, 04:18 PM
as mister fester demostrated to me, the turbo is cak. you need a blower (i was sceptical, but when you see the power curve with the high boost pulley you'll understand)


but atleast now i have both sets of kit lol

wrigleys
26-08-03, 05:33 PM
So what have you guys done to your cars??

I've got:

stage 3 turbo with blow vavle
Full exhaust system
boost control
HT leads and plugs
ECU upgrade
cold air intake
throttle bodys
High flow injectors
Low compression pistons
Nitto 555r tyres
Carbon gauges
200 shot of nitrous

All together it's about 394BHP (594BHP with nitrous)

Not too bad, but I can't get any good times I'm getting about 12.5 is my quickest with the NOS :cry:

blingmachine
26-08-03, 07:05 PM
i've done every mod possible for my civic, using the the super over the turbo. But for sum reason i cant use nos, so , my best times are high 9's at the mo

Dannova12
26-08-03, 10:38 PM

Fester
27-08-03, 12:20 AM
the game gays up every now and again! i dont think they expected it to get this big

the key to getting big money is dont use nitrous, figure out what youre fastest time is without the gas and make sure you can run within .1 of it with a decent start every time, get in chat, go to the race room and then get mouthy with some americans and race for $3000 a pop lol

dave.gsi
27-08-03, 12:29 AM

Keep doing the Amateur cup against the computer to get some easy money.

I'm still in the early stages with my car. I've got about 195bhp with the Civic and I'm running low-mid 14's. I Need to get some more money to get the more expensive mods.

You add money so we can race once we all have better cars and start racing for bigger money i can distribute it between the team but at the moment we have about ?1100 and about 16 members whats the point in sharing that out.

Yes i am able to take money out but if you looked at the records i put it back straight away

29-08-03, 06:31 PM
Well ,this is a very good game and i own a Civic with a stg 3 turbo, intercooler, and lots of stuff and my times are (in general): 11.5s@123.5mph.

Hope this could be usefull.

By the way, i got a team called NQ Tuning Motors and i'm lookin' for some members to join in. Prices to be discussed when joining (team has no money at all)
