AvForums - PGR4 FCC - Quebec - La Basse-Ville - Class B


Rules/Information:-
Welcome to the first FCC for PGR4, for all you who have competed before its the same format as before so go get your racing gloves on and lay down some laps. For those who are new keep reading and i'll try to answer some common questions.
The FCC(Forum Car Challenge) is a competition that uses the time trial section of the game
Each week we will run a different track and car class(decided by a vote), the track and class are always in the subject of the thread
Yes anyone can enter

You can run as many or as few laps as you like

You must post your time in THIS THREAD for it to be counted.

When posting your times please post them in the following format: 1:12.34sec

If you don't have 'live' you can still take part but photographic evidence may be required to verify your time.

When posting an improved time please create a new post. Do not update your original post.

Please send a friends request to PooonTangster if you wish to enter, this will make it easier to check your times

Winner of each round will receive 1000pts. The amount of points that you score will depend on how far behind the winning time you are. To score any points you will need to run a time that is no more than 10% slower than the winning time. e.g. if the winning time is 1:00.00sec then the 10% cut-off point would be 1:05.99sec so any time slower than this would not score points.

This round will close at midnight Saturday 17th November

Please remember to vote for the track and car class you wish to run next week

Current World #1 for this combo is 44:38sec in a RT12, anyone fancy taking that down?
Have fun ladies. Go Go Go

Re: AvForums - PGR4 FCC - Quebec - La Basse-Ville - Class B

I have two times, one for the wrong track, which is half decent , and one for the right one, which is awful!!

Anyway, best attempt so far is 48.99sec with the Atom Supercharged. There should be scope to get that down if I can get round without touching the sides!

Great to see the return of the FCC!

Best so far is 48.78 in the Atom. More to come for sure.

Thanks for sorting this again Poon!

Could everyone post which car they are using too please?

Nice one for starting this up again poon

Forgot how frustrating it can be chasing those elusive tenths of seconds, but its great fun! So far ive managed 0.47.29 in the atom.Think i can creep under 47 but cant quite find the line for the 3rd to last corner.

it's good to see a variety of cars being competitive on this, unlike forza where 1 car is always dominant.

Re: AvForums - PGR4 FCC - Quebec - La Basse-Ville - Class B

anyone here using the wireless wheel? if so does it make it easier to hit the lines in corners as i find the controller to be a bit jerky when trying to corner perfectly.

Th vast majority say its quicker than using the wheel.

Re: AvForums - PGR4 FCC - Quebec - La Basse-Ville - Class B

Great challenge and being a time trial really suits my working hours.

Currently running in the 0:47.xx times but know i can get into the 0:45.xx region just need to take every corner perfectly, been using the ariel atom so far.

Im using a pad atm the wheel is packed away for now. Don't think there would be much advantage to either, the pad will allow you to change lock very fast and correct slides while the wheel should allow smoother turning so should balance out.

Going to keep cracking away at this some very good times being run.

Re: AvForums - PGR4 FCC - Quebec - La Basse-Ville - Class B

45.37 Supercar my best so far, intended using the RUF last night but thought i'd give the Supercar a try first.
The Viper and Supercar are in the same ballpark round this route,where the Viper edges it for handling the Supercar makes up by being a tad quicker.
Not tried the little Atom yet and the Rt12 if you can keep it together may be able to get mighty close to a 44.00, doubt i'll get near that sort of time though as my old boy eye and hand coordination seems to be my limiting factor [but you never know]
