I Am One Happy Camper Right Now!

Ok, I’m sure many of you are sick of reading me post about it, but I finally got my top 25 time that has been eluding me. I had to drop back down to D class with a Mini Tune that was given to me tonight, but I got to #25 on the leaderboard for the first time ever. I’ve been obsessed with it now for about the last 6 weeks and I just couldn’t get over the hurdle. D Class, Yas Marina Full…

I’m shutting up now, as I’m now focusing in on the top 10 :slight_smile:

Great job Lou and keep it up!

Screenshot or never happened. Lol jk. Awesome job bro! Now try the long beach rivals event with the old formula cars and let me know!

No way. I’m not a fan of Long Beach at all. I’ll stick to my Yas Marina tracks…

I just followed the #25 on the full circuit up with a #23 ranking on Yas Marina Alt. Just getting one was frustrating me to no end, and now I get two in one night :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

I don’t remember ever reading about it before now, so yes, I’m sick of it. Can it.

No, seriously, good job. :wink: Now go for number two so that I have more to read. :stuck_out_tongue:

Done :slight_smile:

XD. I spoke too soon.

Saw not to long ago you made it a goal to make top 25, right on man for doing it. Not long at all.

Up to #18, only 8 more spots to go…

I know I’m supposed to be shutting up, but I have to throw out a HUGE thank you to “oo 3X oo” as it was his tune that got me where I wanted to be. I was only #69 on that leaderboard with my own tune. His Mini flat out rocks…

Actually, its 9 lol. Had to take part. The penalties are annoying on this track. I’m scared to drive it too hard sometimes because I just want a freaking clean lap. lol.

No, its 8 again. I saw that you got to #6 and that really irked me :slight_smile: Had to run it again and improved slightly and moved back up to 18 again. I’ll pass you next week sometime :slight_smile:

I’m confused (not really, I actually have a good idea as to who/what is behind it) as to why this thread was moved… Now it will just die like every time a mod moves a thread… I see these types of threads in the discussion forum all the time too, whatever.

Good luck. I ran 3 2:33.0xx laps and settled with a lap 6 tenths off. Lol. Frustration was my downfall.

Dude, I am sharing your frustration so much its ridiculous. I have been running Yas all day. I have run laps in the 2:33’s about 20 rimes now only to have them dirtied by something really stupid. I finally gave up and ran a very cautious lap of 2:34.7 clean and got to #13 on the leaderboard with it. I had your time beat once with a time of 2:33.4 only to have lost it on turn 18 for a reason that I still can’t understand at all. I truly hate the dirty lap indicator on that track…

I’m on the first page of a leaderboard and I’m very happy about it. Yet, I’m also annoyed because I would have been at #6 if the one lap didn’t go dirty on me. At least I now know that I am capable of running a top 10 time, just have to find a way to execute it.

I know what you ran. My last lap of the night was running against your ghost. I stayed right with you for a good bit of the lap. I made a few mistakes along the way that caused to me end up at #18 or I would have been higher. I know there is plenty of time left in that car for that track. You’re just better at the game than I am, so I may never actually get to the same ranking as you. Its certainly possible with the car though. I wasn’t kidding when I said I’m focused on top 10 with that car on that track though. I know where my mistakes are, just need to figure out how to correct them and I’ll be well over a second faster. I don’t think I’m really going to pass you next week, but give me another couple of months and I just might. I am still learning afterall…

well done Lou! yes oo 3X oo is a great tuner i know him good. :slight_smile:

@ lou congrats on the #25 spot!! was there when you posted about your top 50 lol, keep it up and while you are doing that you must now figure out how to not only get faster , you must now figure out how in the world the guys ahead of you did it :slight_smile:

Driving the tune I am now, I can sort of see how a lot of them did it. I can tell that there is a lot left in the car, but I don’t have the skill/technique yet to bring it out. The one that really stumps me is ONR Chronic. That dude can’t be human, he’s just insanely fast…

I want to give this mini a shot now. I finally started hot lapping some C class cars and it seems like me and swerve are always close to eachother with our rival times. Hope that stays true and i can get another top 10!

If you like fwd you will be up there in the hunt for top 10s. Takes a bit to relearn how to drive when you drop from C to the mini though as I noticed last night.

I’ll have to look for you in C class though. I’ve just started rerunning a few tracks here and there in that class.
