I'm not really perfect around that corner either...really depends on the amount of grip I still have
wait...what do you mean by perfectly go in and out of the pits? With pitlane assistance also can wat. I mean pitlane assistance as in the speed limit in the pits only. Until now I fail to understand what is the pitlane speed limit. During practice, its 59, during race...its 99

no lag?
I can tell you this...the person I said I saw go through the wall...is Raikkonen

there's your answer

In Brazil race...I saw someone speeding through me and the 3 cars in front, kinda like Michael Jordan going to the basket then someone skidded and crashed to the wall...went through the wall and back to the track, but luckily I wasn't near when that happened after Raikkonen exited the game then only I knew it was him. If you hit that wall, its normal to bounce back to the track...its very near and the corner actually turns to the left...which is basically where the wall is.

My history:

Australia - brake failure
Hungary - brake failure
Spa - huge lag and rammed into the wall
USA - accident on the first corner
Brazil - won

Top Gear wannabe?

I'm playing championship with max AI strength, but I think only 75% agression. Why cannot get pole? I get them quite a lot, but during race...different story. They're much faster in race than qualifying. So far, my problems in race is:
1) miscalculation with fuel
2) forget to increase radiator intake
3) "speeding" in the pits

sigh...

AI is damn strong in the race...sometimes a whole second a lap faster than me
but they do more pit stops...probably different fuel strat. In a normal race, I still can finish in the podium, or even win a race.
How many places I lose? At least one...at most 4 . One is when I play defensive like Adrian, 4 is when I just leave things be. I dun play LC wan...I dun see any difference.

what I mean by speeding is missing the white line lor...still not used to some tracks...but other tracks ok.

be more aggressive with the steering wheel. Raikkonen is...

same here
I notice my fuel usually lasts 4 laps more, about 60+ liters extra before the AI start their pits

are you still on this case?
I use third person view in GT4, NFS U, U2, MW, Flatout, Daytona....etc
I use first person view in Initial D
I use inside car view in Battle Gear
I use TV cockpit view in F1

I'll use what I like...when I like it camera view is a lame reason for being slow. View does not affect your racing speed, your skill does.

well, you're always nagging about that view thingie...and let's be honest...its not gonna help Penzman's times

I can drive first person view, cockpit view, helicopter view, spaceship view...you name it.
and I heard about this view thing first from you, in thread and in races/practices...where else did I learn it from...
enough, maybe you just didn't realize it.

impossible...aids off are for MOMO users only, keyboard users cannot go aids all off.
I tried manual before...not easy. Coz different track got different gear ratios. There are so many gears...sometimes I ter-masuk Neutral gear too During the race in Brazil, I wanted to go neutral so that the car will roll to the finish line...lagged, termasuk Reverse

oh ya, I tried cockpit view before...in Australia, while we were waiting to start the race. Was only 2 seconds slower than my best. Cornering was very fun...especially the U-turns

you know that camera mounted on top of the engine air intake? Basically its that view which allows you to see the front tyres nicely

arrogant lagi
if changing view can help me go faster, I would have done so

you're basically quoting what I said so far...what do you mean? I dun understand.

that's already a lot...maybe a normal mechanical failure only. Did it say "your engine is overheating"?

1) I did not hint that he was slow at all. I meant that view is not gonna help. Please see properly. And let's not forget, I said I saw Penzman personally chip off his times in Sepang when we were practicing.
2) I'm guessing that you were aiming at my post about driving with the spaceship view? That's a response to Raikkonen's comments...which he deleted. He deleted a lot after I responded...

am I still arrogant? Keep that 'I am 1337' for yourself coz to be frank...whatever that means...its not for me.

what icon am I supposed to use? I'm sure would really make things worse.
sigh...leave it be lah, you'll understand in the future

which reminds me...Penzman...did you ask Raikkonen about your steering settings?

This post has been edited by young_soul: Aug 21 2006, 06:14 PM

I'm a little faster because I have some experience in the past. Adrian and Raikkonen as quick wat...if they stop ramming into each other in the race

hey, I'm only responding to your comments. If being arrogant is the same as being defensive...then yes, I'm arrogant.

ah, yes...about your TV cockpit view and cockpit view...while waiting for my sis to finish using the line just now, I went to try my time in Canada. Did a 1.11.690 with cockpit view, and a 1.11.445 with a TV cockpit view (after a couple of attempts). So, actually there isn't much difference between the views...its what you're used to that matters.

Kimster's time is 1.10.4XX...I'm getting closer
