How are the other participants ranked? Is there no "losing" bracket to rank those who didn't move on? Or is it just by times?

This question has been asked a couple times now with no answer..

Those who did not move on are to do two runs down NDH with the best time of the two being recorded. We were going to do this before the tournament but the tournament had already started. You will be ranked by your times, but all who are in Round 2 are above those who lost Round 1.

I will have a thread up for that soon.

Alright thanks. And I'm assuming we need a witness for the two runs?

Round 2 looks interesting

^ I agree betadood vs mindcharger will be a good one

well u might as well take me off.
I really don't think I can win against placebo.

Cursed, it's not about winning or losing. A lot of the round 1 match-ups were worse off than you are against Sainted.
You guys are within 1/2 seconds of each other, and you've got the 86's acceleration on your side. The AW11 isn't slow but compared to the Hachi it's like driving through molasses down the long straight.

Okay, so it is about winning...but if you race as hard as you can, you can't be upset about the result.

I know,
but I've already lost against him.
Ya I've gained a second faster than I raced him back then but so what?
He has too
Either way he's faster on the lb tho.

^ look at it this way dude, every loss is a learning curve, try and take something away from the loss that you can work on and perfect, dont lose in vein

You know, I could cry about how Mindcharger is a whole 2 seconds faster than me as well. But i'm not going to, instead i'm going to try and beat him.

I got stuck against a guy who drove a 4:49...

But don't you fear you might lose?

Who cares if I might lose, 86's are always the underdogs right?

I guess.
But (I know I'll get a response I might be thinking of but) how come Takumi Fujiwara from Initial D kept on winning in the 86?

Because Takumi eats all of his veggies.

I didnt even see this til just now. Dude lighten up and race? I know that after this round if i make it there im going to be out matched by the competition but i just want to make it go as long as possible.

Takumi is a fictional character, until you can create auras around your car and warp at will then you aren't Takumi.

I don't wanna b mean but ur not takumi either since you dont warp around everywhere and don't glow aura's

Well truely my main reason to join touge union was because of the 86 and the 86 of course linked to takumi
I wanted to win constant races like my 1st racing idol
My second racing idol was betadood so ya.
My third was probably bukkaz who I had my first 86 vs 86 encounter.
Ahh I still remember me driving an A Class 86 and losing since the tires would give out. Good times

Quit being a baby, his goal isn't to become "Takumi". You're not going to offend him by telling him he's not "Takumi". You're the only one attaching anime to Forza here, that logic doesn't apply here any more than anime high school romantic comedies apply to actual high school.

He's half a second faster than you, that's not a huge gap. King was half a second faster than me. We brought it into seven whole rounds during our race. But you don't care about that, you only care about becoming an unbeatable anime character.
