To Do List
« on: February 25, 2008, 03:20:59 PM »
This is just a personal goal/to do list to keep track of.  I have a terrible memory and sometimes can't remember to do everything I'd like to.  Anyone is more than welcome to read and comment on my list...but there's not likely to be anything of any use to anyone except myself.

March Muscle, Inc. Challenge !!!
Official FM.net HotLap Challenge - Audi S4 @ Maple Valley (#39 @ 1:39.436)
BMW E30 Challenge
Supercars - Daytona: Finish Initial Test, then put at least 5 cars into the 82's.  1 Car into 81's. (3 currently in 82's).
Sockmonkey Derby
SimRacers GT3 - Build/Tune Car once it is finalized
Complete Initial HotLaps in remaining Classes (S,U,R4,R3,R2,R1)

Good luck...that thing does not like that track.  I think it may have been a John Deere in a past life...

[hijack] Good luck to you as well, although I think you'll end up with a much better time than me.

Oddly enough for an Audi, I suffered a lot of oversteer when I first ran it. Tonight, I think I'll try it with even tyre pressures rather than one lower in the front and see if that helps. [/hijack]

Got inspired by this and ran a few laps in the HLC yesterday :) That car really craves higher psi, so I followed a handy tip I found on a RW tuning site and it worked fine: Divide weight by 100, then add 2 psi to the heavier end (result: 40/38). It got a LOT more predictable and I gained 4-5 mph in the first couple corners... about a second overall, and much more consistent lap times.

I need one of these lists as well I think.. my Forza time table is getting messier, and I have quite a bit less effective game time because of my new job. Good stuff :)

I just read the words "BMW E30 Challenge".  Please elaborate  :)
It is highly likely that the above post was produced with a drippy jowl.

I figured that one wouldn't slip through without someone noticing...over at Exodus Racing (we are a completely No Assist 'group/team/club' if you weren't aware) we're running a HotLap challenge.  D400 E30 at Diamondback Reverse.  Current top time is a 1:12.552.
