Lets get back too FM4 this series sure will be fun "sign up".
I'm in on this!
These cars are fun! Cant wait for the 2nd part of the series too
Nice work Drivebye
Any more builds/tunes Sierra Bmw yet (paint MPR) ?
Yes Amber .. Give me time lol
No you didnt
Drivebye, you have any room in your garage? I might bring my crayons...
What exactly are you proposing? I have a rather large garage...
If this is on a Saturday im in!
I'm in. Sounds like fun. See y'all @ 4:00
I will do when Drivebye is ready to run them!
A little hairy during shakedown, I had some good races with Cobra. This car requires a certain style of driving to get the most out of it. Thanks for coming out guys, get your set ups sorted out and we'll see you next week for race one at Suzuka!
Thanks to Drivebye for hosting SHAKEDOWN tonight,had some good lap.
Sorry to brnt for not avoiding the collision on MOTEGI humble apologises dude.
What? You sorry for avoiding me after I slammed into the wall? Man I was all over the place with that car. Between having the wrong settings on the wheel and not being on fm4 for a bit, gt6 instead it was some rough running, so it is me that apologizes.
I hope people don't get discouraged by the car. Specs match up with the real race car, I wanted this to be a fairly accurate re creation... The folks in the shakedown didn't seem too thrilled with the way the car performed. I believe it's just a beast you have to get used to, I've spent a good amount of time in it so far and I really like it compared to most AWD cars.
Don't give up on this car, I guarantee once you get used to it, you'll have some serious fun!
See ya on the track!
Thanks for coming out guys! Some nail biting in the front of the pack, with KC charging back from getting spun out by your's truly, and edging out Max. Sorry again Cobra...
Next week we'll be at Tsukuba, hope to see you all there!
Thanks to Drivebye hosting tonight,thanks to Max for tune paint.
See you all next week for some hard driving round Tsukuba.........see you there Skiwi.
These Group A cars take some getting use to at start but sure are fun to drive.
Thanks Drivebye. Great race
Was a close one with KC tonight.
