If we all used to same tires, whether they were sport or race, skill isn't based on the tires but experience. I'm actually curious now on how fast I could get with sports and compare to my race tires to see the time difference.

Same here. I'm guessing sport tires would add about 3-4 seconds in your lap time?

I do, and thanks. :3

A few of the more popular cars that are really low class probably won't be able to get as full a PI with an all-Sport bar so even if I wanted to it wouldn't be fair. But the tires are and always will be a must with me.

I don't look down on anyone who uses slicks in touge, I look down on the slicks. I just don't arrange battles where they are sanctioned. If I wanted slicks, I'd hit the tracks.

And not to step on anyone's toes, but based on facts alone. Sport tires will force a person to be more attentive and reserved, because they wear quicker, don't put as much rubber to the road, heat up much differently and aren't made of a compound that's designed to perform at certain peak heat/pressure. In short it's more than just getting higher times, it's a fact. That's like trying to say 3+3 = 10, even though 3+3 will always equal 6. To me, this is how touge should always be, and as I said I dislike public lobbies and only touge when I can arrange it with friends or other crews, so it matters to me not. Though I thank you for your valuable input.

It's something that just can't be decided by lap times, like lower class cars are slower but not less skillful, and most importantly forza aero, which makes cars faster but everyone considers it cheap. You could also run cosmetic damage so wear wouldn't matter.

It's really difficult to say, but I do like that you will enforce that, it's always cool to try different uncommon rule sets

Right, that reminds me, TU doesn't usually run all-Sims? O.O

i always do if i host a lobby full sim damage. I only leave the steering up to the drivers

Old King, what's your gamer tag?

Everyone has their own preferences, there isn't one agrees damage setting , usually I put it on limited so that people don't crash and demolish others so they can't race.

What happened? You said you wanted to race in 15 then you started playing halo? -___-

Ooooh. Sorry XD... I didn't get your message till later and I had already Touge'd with some people including knight. Tomorrow?

yeah good times but that genesis obviously isnt any good for grip touge xD

^ yup.
I think I only ran a couple of runs with you last night, but the difference between sport and race (all mine are) tires should be obvious.
If we could restrict it in public lobbies, then I'd be the same as you. But we cant, so slicks it is.

I think he was referring to the fact that it weighs 3,500 lbs. I'm not all too concerned with how people run themselves as far as public lobbies go, I virtually never really go to publics for touge, so it matters to me not, really. I have to stop trying to be unique and using hella heavy cars though (especially V8's) haha.

True that they simply are no good for touge
