forza motorsport 6 Forza 6 Time Attack League (Week 11)

[TIMELESS]

What's this about?

 

Earlier this year, Prophecy came up with a great idea for some community competition. What is it, I hear you ask? I'll let him explain in his own words:

Have you been living under a rock? Time Attack is a real world discipline of motorsport where the winner is not based on physical track position or amount of laps completed, its purely based on lap time. You know the rivals leaderboards? Time Attack. Think qualifying laps, except you can bin the car and still win the race, as long as you qualified first.

 

All you have to do is set the fastest time. So, each week a car or car restrictions and a track will be chosen by the winner of the previous week. It can be any car, or it can be car restrictions such as: Class, Performance Index, FWD/RWD/AWD, Mid-Engined, Naturally Aspirated, Pre-1970, etc. That is up to you, if you win. :smig: You can choose any track, with any weather. The competition will run from Monday to Saturday (beginning and ending at 00:00 UTC/GMT), which should allow plenty of time for the winner to choose the next track.

 

 

Think of it as turboduck's own Rivals, but with some proper rivalry in the community.

 

The Rules:

• You must use the car (or a car that meets the restrictions) and track chosen by the previous winner.
  
• Tuning/setups are allowed.
  
• Dirty laps do not count, stay off the lawn kids.
  
• Laps do not have to be from a standing start (flying laps count).
  
• If you already have a faster lap recorded outside of the competition, this does not count, you must record another and take a picture for proof.
  
• If you win, don't forget to chose a car/track for the next week before Monday!
  
• Make sure to do your times in RIVALS (or free play), they will not be recorded in test drive.

[ViralBunny]

2.01.381 with a Beetle, will try harder with some tuning later in the day. Hoping for a low 2.00.x at least.

[ViralBunny]

1.59.817 with the Beetle again, might be a second more to shave off Before slamming into the talent wall :)

[Camel]

I'll try and get a time (competitive one this time) set for this. Not a huge fan of the track as there's a certain bit a kitty litter that I always end up in but the rest is fine. :lol:

[TIMELESS]

I'm stuck on 1:59.587 with a BMW 2002 Turbo. Going to have to change car I think because even if I so much as touch a curb I end up on 2 wheels. This presents quite a problem.. even by the first corner :lol:

[ViralBunny]

1.59.478, still fiddling around with that Beetle. And the first corner is a pebble!

[carlos_69]

2.03.114 with a 300sl

[ViralBunny]

Bowing out at 1.58.512 with a Beetle. Is it considered proof simply by having the same gamertag/turboduckhandle? Might require having a moderator in your Xbox friendlist? I struggled to find a smooth way of taking a Picture other than uploading a cellular phone pic.

[Camel]

It's easier if you have one of us on your friends list but a picture will do if you can be bothered updating it all the time. Think I've added you but it might be the wrong person.

 

Just about to give this a ago now. :)

[Paladin Skylark]

I can add you as well Bunny, I figure as long as one of us has you added on it counts :D

 

I gave this a go yesterday and was garbage so I'll give it another try.

[Camel]

1:58.488 in my 1M. That Beetle is fast. :eek:

[ViralBunny]

It's very light, with a V-tech engine. Used a very tall gearing and only needed three gears to reach top speed into the hairpin corner. I believe the V-tech should be the way to go for all those little vintage cars, very easy to drive since the lack of torque keeps it from lighting up the tires. A V8 Beetle might be fun to slide around Watkins Glen, but the PI just tells how much rubber and smoke will be produced in the corners :)

 

--- Post Updated ---

 

And I will check in tomorrow probably (about 12:00 CET) on the Xbox, am away for the evening with a bottle of wine. So I should get some kind of handicap if I show up for the race league ;)

[TIMELESS]

Congratulations Camel! Raining Reigning champion!

 

Rather enjoyed this one, even if I do say so myself :lol: I can't believe I couldn't set a faster time though, but ah well. I had fun :headbang:-ing.

[ViralBunny]

Guess I'll have to try harder next week. Someone obviously needs to do something to stop Camel :)

[Camel]

My 1M tune does have a 1:57.9 time in it as I managed that in tuning but couldn't get the lap together in rivals. Think I've shown I can tune and drive any car now. :cheeky:

[Paladin Skylark]

Week 12 should be up already, c'mon Mells. :p

[TIMELESS]

Week 12 should be up already, c'mon Mells. :p

 

You heard the woman, schnelle Mellors!

[Camel]

I've been busy! But I shall post one in the next 2,224,287 milliseconds.
