A red one! :wink: yes, I’m easy! But by the meaning of Lionel Richie.

I’ll post you up a code when I have one. It will take me a minute…I tune by feel (driving etc, no set formula) so that requires track time :joy: It may be tomorrow unless I end up staying up “All Night Long” :rofl::rofl:

Left up to me, you always get the oldest version of the car if I can get it to cooperate! :slightly_smiling_face:

I went with the Celica '03 in the trial and used snosaes purist tune share code 601 566 608

2 lonely 1sts in the end, although Katya got away quick in both races. This thing feels absolutely broken. :grin: Really really good car.

(First trial in awhile where the ai finished 2nd twice)

@AnakalaRon, one of the good things about having so many cars is you don’t always remember which ones are tuned (not all mine are shared :wink:) :joy: So…I happened to have a couple of B-class Miatas for you to try. I ran them and made a few adjustments and now they are red! :grin:

2005 Mazda Mazdaspeed MX-5 “Drop Top”
Tune SC 105 146 263

1995 Mazda MX-5 Miata “Hard Top”
Tune SC 134 213 129

Give them a try and let me know if you like them! :+1: If you don’t like them, say you do and let me know :wink::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I hope you like them! :grin: The 2005 is probably quicker but has some forza aero. :smiling_face_with_tear: Good luck! :crossed_fingers:

I will give them a thorough thrashing with my alt profile Red12string also. So they’ll get a workout.
Thanks.

First thrashing with the 2005 was killer. Pulled into the lead about half way through the first lap and held it until the last two corners where a Supra and a Skyline got me in clean passes. With just a little more top end I could have held them off. It could have been the driver though so don’t change anything on the car.

Second track was bolo sucko. I sucko on that track anyway but I kept pace with the Supra and Skyline. And no one was catching the run away AI. We finished 2,3,4, for the team win.

Conclusion; 2005 MX-5 is a tune to run with.

Glad it worked well for you! :grin: Thank you for the feedback! :pray::slightly_smiling_face:

Drift Zone was a bit tricky this week but managed it in the end with a Hoonigan RS200.

Really enjoyed this seasons Event Labs - some might have been short but I don’t think I’ve not enjoyed any one of them.

Reward cars are a bit so so.

Decent Trial this week with plenty of great options, the only problem as usual being the human element.

1 guy’s contribution consisted of forcing me into the wall at the very start of Estadio as I tried passing on the outside (being salty about a car having better launch than yours is a new one on me), scoring 0pts + being a couple of seconds from being lapped by me at the end.

Another endorsement for having ghosted starts applied to all online races, not just Open.

It works so well in open. I think people would find online less off-putting if it was implemented like that. Places like Bahia can be such a lottery as it currently stands.

Tour went much better despite a nuisance in an Impala, I was in with a good driver who Jezza + Zip will know and had some great racing vs them.

Chevrolet vs Dodge Tour really was that, they were in a '99 Viper and I was in the '02 Corvette, 2-1 to the Corvette in the end.

What a refreshing change from the last time I did a Tour with that restriction…

@CashlessPlains8 , So I’ve run both MX-5’s, the Silvia, and the Trueno. Personally, I think the 2005 MX-5 is the top tune with the Trueno coming in #2. The other two were ok but for my driving style they got a little squirrelly in the corners. But they were still competitive.

Totally agree! :grin: Thanks for giving them a try! :pray:
Unfortunately that’s the difference between atrocious forza aero and non aero builds. :woman_shrugging: (For me anyhow…) I really dislike the aero but sometimes it’s function over form! :rofl:

Yeah, that NSX isn’t just good for circuits. Had one spare, so decided load up your tune, slap on my paint, grab my Honda hoodie and boogity boogity boogity. We went racin’ .

Two 1sts in the Honda street cup co-op, starting from last in race 2 with a team of x3 other '92 NSX’s, the '16 Civic & an S2000. Solid RWD choice.

I really struggled with the RS200. What tune did you use? I had to do it in Hoonigan Escort Gymkhana and I only got 100,122 points

The C600 dirt race championship in summer of series 16 was a bit better than this winter due to the fog that took away the beauty of scenery.

D, C, and somewhat B class are less stressful and provides opportunity to enjoy the environment.
