^ nice

Nice work slime, I saw you were real close to that 35 last time we ran.

Oh has anyone tried F/E/D/C class professionally?

Talk to Ed and Koolaid about C & D class Obelisk

Thanks Mulch. Btw you don't need to do those paints anymore.

Professionally? Lol if there's a way to get paid for hotlapping let me know.

I've only done C class New Downhill / Hillclimb

I didn't mean it literally lol

I can speak for most of the veterans when I say, we have all race pretty much all classes on the mountain. Maybe not as much as B class, but we did spend some time on it.

did a little c class downhill back in the day. it was amateur though haha  

Did a little racing on the Old Downhill today and:
1) FUCK STAGE D
2) IF YOU WANT A CLEAN LAP YOU CAN'T JUMP YOUR CAR WTF!?

B500 MR-S
3:42.810 clean
3:42.427 dirty

84 Celica Supra 4:43.998 (Dirty) I havent driven here at all for months, come back do about 10 runs and im already 5 seconds faster lol.

That's some bullshit kraze just like if the car behind you drafts off of you it dirtys your lap, makes no sense.

NDH gen2 4:35.626 only beat my PB by a tenth of a second but i'll take it

Believe it or not it will give you slightly more acceleration (unnoticeable) and top end even if you are the car in front. It reduces drag. Although its more noticeable with Forza aero and it turned all the way up on both cars.

Actually both dirty lap situations make sense, let me explain:

1. If more than (2 or 3) tires leave the track (if your in the air your tires aren't in contact with the road), your lap is considered dirty.

2. When it comes to that whole drafting thing, a clean lap is when a racer runs a lap without leaving the track, hitting a wall, and usually is ran alone (let me explain). If you draft or slip stream a car you are gaining power/speed from a outside source that you wouldn't have if you were racing alone. Natural clean lap alone is a clean lap (with the exception of collisions always off (can't draft something that's not there)

Also, having all 4 tires in the air but over the racing surface will not dirty your lap. At the Alps on every lap i jump over the hill going into the essess.

on FUJIMI kaido there is one, so sorry

im not understanding what you are saying but maybe you didnt understand what i said. i have had all 4 tires in the air it doesnt dirty your lap unless your car is off the track in mid air.

It has nothing to do with wheels off the ground to dirty a lap, it all depends on the corner.

I've gotten massive air and not dirtied a lap on kaido, but others life a single wheel and dirty...

Cant say i have gotten dirty laps off of 1 tire off, im trying to think of tracks with corners that are very unforgiving.... hmm. Nurb GP comes to mind. Going up the uphill ess can get you to dirty your lap if you are touching the rumble with the inside of your outside tires even if you are less than a full tire on the grass, but thats because the game counts the curb as out of bounds there, where as in other tracks its considered racing surface.

The drafting thing has ruined many of my times becauae the AI drafts me.

If you are going for a fast clean time for the leaderboard then you should probly switch to hot lap mode. if its not for the leaderboard then it doesnt really matter if its dirty.

so say u start a race in 1st place n never lose the lead but the car behind u drafts off of ur car, that makes ur car, the one in 1st, accelerate faster? how is that possible?

not arguing ur point sainted, jus dont think its fair for the guy in 2nd. it kind of defetes the whole point of drafting to begin with ya kno
