Backwards Compatible Challenge - ENDED

Throwing another challenge up for fun ( I have a few lined up and trying to do 2 week intervals to keep it fresh )

This challenge will be a build it yourself or share the builds etc etc I loaded mine to the SF if you wish to try it … but there are a few build stipulations ;o)

This challenge will be run using the 2005 Lotus Elise 111S … you must back-class the build to a C425 any way you wish to get there as there are several combinations to get there with aero and without it … sport trans heavy wheels aspiration etc etc some ways allow suspension and brakes or wider tires

The track will be Maple Valley Full and I have set a time of 1.47.005 if you want a target to beat I have a 3 lap replay saved of the run

The challenge will run through March 5th Midnight EST Time

Please run a clean lap for your entry and load the replay as BCC and post your time and lap here

This one is just for fun and I am trying to hit tracks in classes where not many of us have gone back to or have dirty laps … as you will see on this one … it’s a perfect pick :o)

Hope you guys enjoy and feel free to show your rides off ;o)

EDIT – I added a non-aero tune as well

EDIT ********** EXTENDED TO 4/12/16 Midnight Eastern Time ********** new build available on SF should anyone want to try to improve or try the new build ******* was all for fun anyhow but since I ran just before deadline with a new trial build I wanted to extend the challenge

I will post pics and tune later, I’m off to bed for now. :slight_smile:


Awesome … I will get you updated

Since it’s all for fun I am going to try and keep pace with you guys … I will leave the target time as is but I am going to try and hang in there with you all and join in the challenge if that’s fine by you all

and I added a full aero tune also … I set a PB with this one

it’s all I can do to hang, so… absolutely fine by me!

how’d CF’ post so quick, quickly?! LOL

hahahaha … I tell you I think CFunk had a time set before I barely got all this set up on the thread lol lol … too funny and yeah he screamed right through the track … and you all you can do to hang ?? I almost had an incar virtual experience on the Touge because my controller was gonna be inside my TV after trying to run you there :o)

and, at the back of the (current) pack – 1:51.980 with your AERO tune …is a new LB time for me!!!

am not too sure where I can make-up all the time I’m short – CFunk!

(enjoying it all ,just the same!)

(…have to go and try the other (Two? Three?! tuning set-ups you posted!)

[you do have to keep in mind, in that traffic race, is such a looooong race… patience grasshopper – what you might give up waiting a tic or three, you can more than make up for later!] ;^)

;o) lol … the AI have ruled against me lol I did great for 4 minutes so after ten restarts i ran an extra dirty 9.37 lol … now on the full aero tune I jumped ahead of CF with it to 1.46.050 but I am completely positive if he has not already done it he will be ahead of me by the time I log on … quite a few on here with cat-like reflexes and mine are more sloth-like lol

I don’t think Yakov Kool Voldemortt and Tarry have been back to this track probably since running it in career mode or something with traffic in what looks like stock PI cars and CC is not on the board at all so I thought it was a good track to pick in this class


:slight_smile:

Loving this banter, and got the reaction I was after!!

I just happened to check the forums and catch this challenge, and thought it would be funny if I could get a good time so quick. :slight_smile:

Me thinks this is going to be really fun!!

:slight_smile:


Lets do this… 1:46.019 on lap 7 - using DRAGGIN’s 2nd tune ;]

My 2nd, and maybe my last because it was pretty tough to get this time. I’m not sure if I have any more in me!! :slight_smile:

Awesome CFunk … I am going to be really pushing it to try to bust that 145.9 mark but I will try your tune out too

You have no idea how relieved I was to read this, as I don’t think I have much left in the tank myself (if i’m not on empty already LOL). Nice run (and pics) and looking forward to trying out your tune!! : )

I will probably pop back on and see both of you in 144’s lol

lol well if this run is like your Impala run it won’t disappoint lol … that one looked a an episode of world’s wildest police chases … I think you rolled over onto the sidewalls and threw sparks from the rims in that one ;o)

Time update - 1:45.936 on lap 4 - still using DRAGGIN’s 2nd tune

Almost forgot how much fun this track is… EXCELLENT choice… FANTASTIC tune : )

Uh-Oh someone is on the move lol … great run CC

Working on a paint :wink:

Can you put some super fast parts stickers on there … I heard that might make me go faster and I gonna need it lol ;o) I see the posse coming in hot lol
