xbox people.. f3... soon f4..

[CRSMP5]

ok.. i am finally back on my gold membership.. xbox refused my $ for months.. then tried to screw me into a 60/year membership.. was offered at 40% off and i refuse to spend 60 cause they refuse my $...

had one of my people from the 16 mo i had gold prior to them screwing me hook me up with a year for $25.. no not telling who it is.. his email would be so full.. funny thing is what i received via brown truck was a 60$ 12mo gold card with ms employee sticker on back.. so if you know anyone working for them arssholes.. should talk to them..

the deal..

monday nights.. 12am est (offical is 1am est, 10pm pst)we were playing forza3.. i was pretty much in charge of that time spot.. been since april 16th though.. and they have a 10pm est ish time too..

the idea is good times... my spot was more or less the "bad apples" aka cat/mouse tag so on.. aka good time.. screwing round so on.. was not a "die hard racer" type of thing.. the 10 spot is..

my user name is crsmp5.. like id use anyother.. befriend me and well join in the fun.. usually runs till 2-3am est.. other coast is 10-midnight..

build a few c425 vag cars.. also have a supply of others..

im pretty sure when f4 comes out on 10-11-11 that we will find some fun with it too.. probally a different evening till the groups get it..

ive bsed with quite a few interesting people.. people i hope to meet when the toaster is on its 7k.. yea we has that much fun..

I'm tempted to buy an xbox 360 just for this game. But then I'd need to buy a tv to hook it up to. And it would be foolish to buy both of those items for a single game without splurging on the nice Logitech wheel, so there's another $350.
Add in xbox live and I can't justify $1000 for one game. Still terribly tempting though

going to pre ordered 

[CRSMP5]

rado.. used xbox (200ish)... used tv(50-200)... used game(35ish).. finding a xbox/ms employee.. gold for year 25+shipping (ups so ~10).. i would not worry bout any wheel at this moment.. f4 supposedly uses connect.. it can see you turn head supposedlyl... if that case.. holding controler like steering wheel should let you turn left/right.. 


ill wally world my f4 aka be there 12:01 morning of release.. 10-11... so goto wally worl at 11:45ish on 10-10.. wait.. buy...

Paid for. I like to race more than dick around. Currently playing GT5. Mostly Daytona NASCAR. But I like road courses equally as much.

[CRSMP5]

we do that too..

we also do some drag racing with spec cars, aka all pick out a exact same stock car (say a stock rabbit gti up thru full race prep cars).. no traction control so on.. i override that stuff.. honestly.. thats pretty fun.. its all on throttle control/take off.. races usually within .05 sec of each other..

what i refer to by screw around is its not serious.. aka we may rub a titch so on.. when taken too serous IMO people become anal.. the 8pm est slot is that slot.. most of 10pm est slot is a mix of 8 and 12.. and my midnight slot is a few 10 and originals who set this whole crazy thing/idea up.. dec is 2 year anniversery

but if you have never played cat mouse, your missing out on what can be really good times..

we pick out a "stock car" aka slowest pos there is.. and slowest car of team who passes finish first wins.. BUT slowest pos in 1st place gets punted by say fastest car there is, his team mate can try to block the others, push his mouse so on.. it takes skill.. it takes wrath of god at times too.. but in reality it is demolition derby.. but has a goal.. and is a fun way to let out fustration of life..

My gamertag is mXm Balz hit me up, I have a drag car, need to tune it. Here are the first two vehicles I purchased.









The Rabbit is a top spec C class

The Mk2 is a top spec B class. 

I am thinking about buying another one and doing the VR6 swap. and making it an A or S class.

Whacha got?

[CRSMP5]

no no no... do not buy more... you cn save tune set ups by pressing start button.. 

after 5-6 races with vw you should get vw upgrades free.. so do some tunes with different things.. save them and then all you have to do is load tune and walla.. play with any you have saved..

f4 is pretty nice.. LOL.. im on team beer.. crunchy set that team up.. teams nice as you can have a online saved garage... team members getta use what ever in garage...

[DieselBalz]

Yeah, Im up around lvl 24 now. Can't save the color though. 

I bought another Rabbit, black this time, and did the VR6 swap, AWD, and boosted it up to A class. It is a rocket! Turn10 did the VR6 sound immaculately.

I have the Coronet up to 940bhp lowered the air pressure, loosened up the rear end, and all I do is spin tires through third, 11.069 lowest 1/4 mile run. Any suggestions on tuning the dragster to hook up better?

[CRSMP5]

ive got a s700 bunny set up on f3 that the bugittie (sp??) looses to in the 1/4 mile.. this is in almost 2 years of running crap.. still not beeten me..

try lower tire pressure?

[DieselBalz]

Iv'e tried everything from 25 psi down to 15. Still just spins. Drag slicks are on, rear end is soft soft soft. With this kind of power I should be doing wheel stands off the line. A little disappointing that there is no ballast setting. If I could just move some weight over the rear axel....
