And now I notice that it's Fuji GT which is the version I have never run a single lap on.

Maybe someone can give me a heads up as to the speed through Dunlop with this layout?

I don't have a speed to provide but assuming your asking about the one turn that changes on the GT version.  I was switching between 3th and 4rd gear all night last night in the 458.




Also, yes I have driven a 4rd lately.  :)

LLF, thanks for the reply.  I hope you can make it tonight!  As to the track, if you're familiar with the other Fuji layout this one is even easier ;D  Your entry speed for that different turn is around 80 mph if I recall correctly.  On the front straight with these cars I would brake at the 2nd brake marker (and closer to first marker as the tires wear).

dlr, I'm not sure what's the case with your hp.  Guess you need more break in time?  :-\

I've got a mystery on my hands.  After the practice last night I checked my car and I have over 200 miles on it.  So it should be fully borke in.  I even lost almost 10hp in the last race due to aging oil.  So I did an oil change and I maxed out at 588hp.  Which is shy of whats listed in the front page.  I may have to buy one and rush a break in tonight. ???


As for colors I actually have several planned for the series. Starting tonight with my Marl-burro a/k/a smoke'n donkey sponsored car. Sophia white with TOR red/chrome wheels.  Assuming that is I don't have to make an emergency car purchase.

Double check the power limiter. If that's not it you can try a engine refresh.

We can run in the back together because my car is also maxed out at 588HP.  I didn't do an engine refresh because I didn't figure it needed one, but I'll try that when I get home.

I'm out.  My fucking cat just ate through my brand new shifter cable, so I'm without a wheel again.  I can't fucking believe it.

I don't think its a mileage thing.  Every car I've tested/broke in in the past reach max power by or before 200 miles.  I may try the engine rebuild.  The only thing I can think of is that I've had the car since late 2010 early 2011.  I wonder if the difference may come from one of the many updates the game has had.  :-\

One way or another I'll get it sorted out. :)

I briefly considered what to do going forward since the fucking cat has eaten through 3 iPhone cords, 2 shifters, and too many of my son's little gadgets to count.  I thought of wrapping the cords in something, then thought, "Fuck it, I shouldn't have to do this."  There's currently something on my Facebook page about getting rid of the cat.
