good stuff daniel, as we both like the "can you see me coming" bright colour method maybe the white to a bright colour or even red to match the vimto letters.
the vimto lettering looks brilliant, infact the whole vimto vinyl looks spot on.

May try this tomorrow if I get chance. Would have to change the "ongetta" and "sennheiser" logos to white so they're readable though.

if anyone is interested in this then jump in the party tonight, any newer members that are unsure what it`s all about we can fill you in and sort some teams out.

Going off all the testing I've done over the last few weeks, as well as last night test session in particular (thanks to all those who helped out), personally speaking it's between, the Lexus IS300, Honda Si Coupe and (obviously) Renault Megane. Will be more than happy to run any one of these. There my choices.

Anyone else?

Out of the ones i have tested so far my top choice would be the Renault, will give the Honda a bash if I get on later as don't think I have given that a good go yet.

hi all, joined TORA today, and was having a good old look round! and after last night the megane for me felt the most planted!
I do have a 1M 2011 in my garage with an amazing a600 on it, with a few tweaks I can make it a very fast 575 car! I will also have a go at the 2013 ford focus, just need to sort out the oversteer in it, although its a front wheel drive!!!!

Nice one Paul.

Think we definitely have enough for 2 teams of 3 now

Me
Si
Baz
Dan
Alex
Paul
Mark

Anybody I missed out?  Or wishes to do this speak now or forever hold your peace.

Think ID wants to participate.

After weeks of testing, and general indecision I'm going out on a limb and being the first to make a car choice.

Lexus IS300

For me, it's the most fun and the easiest to drive quickly, other than the Megane which is a TCC LB car.

If anyone wants to hop in a Lexus with me, feel free to voice an interest here, or in tomorrow evenings lobby. I'll be registering my entry on Monday.  

Dan, will give the Lexus an outing later, I'm hoping to get the 1M to do the same time as the Lexus, and then make a decision on which one. I pefer RWD and hopefully I can make a decent setup on them, can you send me your build for the Lexus please.

nice one daniel, i think for me after ruffling a few feathers with a lesser car last season i`d like to have a shot at the fastest forza players with an equal car. so far that reason it`ll be the megane or any other fwd car that i can tune/build to match the megane`s pace. i really do like having the lesser car and being the underdog, but as mentioned that`s been done and i`m a better fwd tuner than rwd.
plus think nice to have two contrasting cars.

@Paul. I drove the 1M last season. I didn't really get on with at all circuits. The Lexus is in the club garage, but I'll be sure to send it you too Paul.

@Si. I know what you mean Si. I just can't do it. I can't put myself in a Megane. It feels like cheating. Plus I prefer RWD to be honest. I have a few cracking A600 FWD'ers, but I can't do it with the 580PI.

yeah it`s a toughy going with the megane but i would like a good crack at them, couldn`t go as far as to jump in any of the honda`s especially the civic 07.
still gona try get something other than the leon on a par with the megane though.

Did a quick setup on the 1M, and got it down to 1.01.9:cheers: 

@Paul. Have gifted you the Lexus build/tune. It's a good base build. I may take some tyre width off and add power for the first round, since it is a power circuit, but that's all I would change.

Was doing some testing yesterday. I managed to get the Renault Megane down to a 1:01.747 and the Lexus IS300 down to a 1:01.374. Based on that I would prefer to use the Lexus although I do think the Renault Megane time can be improved, I just need to get the tune right.  

Now I've actually chosen the Lexus. I thought I'd better paint it.

Thoughts? Yay?   Or nay?  




Made sure the Pixel Motorsport logo and web address is on it too.  

like it, that vimto logo is quality.

Love it looks brill

the yokahama logo looks a bit squew wiff dan

Your driving is a bit squew wiff Baz.  

Think I'll stick with it then. A few little creases to be ironed out (as Baz has so kindly pointed out) but I'm happy with the general look and theme. Glad two of you (the important two) like it.  

are we any further forward with this chaps? ive been a bit busy to get on for much testing. are the teams and cars sorted? I MAY get on a bit later for a bash, not sure though

Pixel Motorsport Perfection has been formed for the season, campaigning in the Megane RS 250. One place to fill so anyone wanting to race in the Megane, jump on board.

im yer man si.

I'm about to register my Lexus team too.

P.s. Pixel Motorsport Perfection?? Really?? Seems a bit... big headed.    Can I call my team "Better than Perfection" then?

you could, but i`d not had you down as a liar
