    GTR2 laptimes - any car, any track - post them here

    Good time there, Nik. Looks like you'll be a far closer rival to Ben than me! :) D.

    Sky+, Media Centre.... Oh my...

    Hmmm. All sounds a bit technical. Wouldn't you prefer a nice game of chess with your new toy, instead? ;)

    My CAR insurance has just gone up!?!?! WTF????

    ^^^^ - Fully agree with you there, tommyboy. Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. :( D.

    Great shot that at Donny, Ben...:approve: D.

    My CAR insurance has just gone up!?!?! WTF????

    That's the key. Where you live. Transfer those stats above to somewhere out in the sticks and that premium would probably drop by two-thirds. D.

    Driver required JVC vid cam

    Similar to Yin's post above..... http://www.jvc.co.uk/files/instruction_manual/lyt1247-001a.pdf Reading between the lines, it looks like deleting the the current USB connection within Control Panel --> System and then reconnecting the USB lead, might just work? Assuming you don't delete the...

    Petrol Blue V6

    I thought hers was the moonlight or midnight (?) blue. Simply THE best colour in a Vee - and it's the only one in the country, iirc. D.

    why is no one buying a 182 anymore

    You want a Trophy, then? You may need a bit more than 7k...... ;) D.

    GTR2 laptimes - any car, any track - post them here

    1.49.597 - at Barcelona in an RSR. Soft slicks all round with 10 laps worth of fuel. Plenty of corners that I don't take fast enough - including the entrace to the start/finish straight. Just realised that it's possible in 5th gear. Oh well, back to the track! ;) Some slippy-sliding times...

    GTR2 laptimes - any car, any track - post them here

    Up for some Arselona action tonight - probably with an RSR. I'll try and get some decent-enough times set. The end of the start/finish staight is a good test of nerve. 170mph+, down to diddly squat.... D.

    Opinions Required......

    I'd actually ditch the two-tone colour and go for black alone. With the cream interior, it would probably look alright... D.

    why is no one buying a 182 anymore

    I do think a lot of people start thinking of the expense of Christmas and stuff, so buying a car tends to go out the window. However, I sold my Punto GTT at this time of year through Auto Trader. It was quiet for about 4-5 days then I got bombarded with calls! At the end of the day, the 182 is...

    Ben - which track was that on, above? Is that the BiTurbo 911? D.

    Ah. The secret's out - you have ABS switched on..... ;) D.

    Good. Because if you did, you'd be on 1.15 around Donny.... ;) D.

    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    I'm not that well-up on two-wheelers, but isn't a GSXR1000 a bike? Must admit, I haven't seen one of those making an appearance in GTR2.... ;) D.

    The leaderboard sounds a great idea edde - is that via a sticky thread? I'm still in awe that Ben uses a bloody rumblepad to get the times he does! D.

    Drove a Vee last night

    Have you ever been in a Vee, tommy? Not wanting to belittle either the R32 or Teggy Type-R, but the Vee is just in a completely different league of 'road presence'. In the past week, I've already seen three R32s - one of the previous model and two of the newer ones. I did see one Vee - and that...

    GTR2 laptimes - any car, any track - post them here

    At the request of BenR :rasp: - can anyone with recorded laptimes in GTR2 post them here? Ideally, with a screenshot attached? Not limits on track choice, car alterations, tyre choice, fuel onboard, etc - just let us know what you selected and what time you got. As posted on the other thread...

    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    Too right! ;) The ironic thing was that my fastest lap was 'in traffic' - stuck behind a 911 BiTurbo. Following the lines of a computer controlled car clearly give me a better time than when I had an open track. :o I'd be interested to know the times of people like Nik and Lee on this setup... D.

    Snails like my Clio.....

    LOL - too true! Proper Skank-Mobile! :cool: D.

    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    I can't get anywhere near that time Ben! Coppice is my weakness - I just can't get that right at all. If I chill out a bit more, maybe I'll shave off a few seconds. But your 1.26 will take some beating! D.

    Snails like my Clio.....

    Twice is one week now. :S I opened the boot to put the laptop in there and noticed two snails stuck on the inside of the tailgate itself. Picked them off and put them in the bushes at the side. Last Wednesday - the two snails then, were in the same place as these this morning??? If they think...

    Alternative to iTunes ?

    I maybe unaware of these issues with iTunes as my library is quite small - only 60 songs or thereabouts, at the moment. I guess if you start throwing vid clips in there and stuff, you may notice more of a performance hit? D.

    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    It would be worth updating those nVidia drivers. Also, I'd install the latest version of DirectX 9.0c off Microsoft's website. Iirc, they released an updated set of drivers this month. D.

    Alternative to iTunes ?

    He's right, you know. Not that I'd ever admit installing a piece of Apple software on my PC, but it really is a piece of p1ss to use. ;) D.

    Racing Blue & Black Gold 182's looking mint!

    Whoa - now that's a clean BG 182! Fancy doing mine?! ;) D.

    ^^^^ - PMSL! Really? :eek: By the way - for those interested, here's an Excel stats list of the cars included in GTR2, in terms of peak power & torque.... http://putstuff.putfile.com/1361/8311997 D.

    NW mini meet 29 oct 2006

    Quality vid there! Shame I missed this one - looked like a good turn-out. Who's was the 182 baked bean? D.

    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    Looks like you've thrown down the gauntlet here Ben. I'll have a bash tomorrow after work - see how many minutes I am behind you! :) Full respect for getting the handle of the 'Vette. I just can't find the balance in that car at all. I take it that you're using a wheel to get times (and car...
