fuck you takumi never gave up in his geo metro, i'll never give up! i'll find a way even if it means i have to delete my bbq system integrated into the trunk.

The ATTESA system in the GTR makes it so even novices can hit corners easily and jam the throttle at moments that would make a regular FR/MR car spin out. You're gonna lose unless you get professional lessons or run racing slicks.

why does the r35 get more expensive year by year

who's the best person on Veeky Forums to learn racing skills from?

Get an old fairlady. Beat him at his own game in a blast from the past.
Its all about down shifting, and up shifting.
Up shift and ease the throttle going into the turn. Once you're about 60% through it (all wheels relatively straight) slam that sum bitch back down and gun it.

Man, the timing of the shitpost threads is really wierd... I wonder what triggered them...

It really makes you think...

Posting a similar dilemma. I recently bought a brand new Camaro 2SS right off the lot on Veeky Forums's advice.
I was told about how the Chevy was objectively superior in most performance perameters, even against the likes of the significantly more expensive BMW M4. But on my first track outing some guy brought along a GTS version of an M4 that Veeky Forums didn't tell me about, and to put it simply, I couldn't compete.

Hold me Veeky Forums, I'm experiencing a severe bout of buyer's remorse. Should I just brag to the guy about my drive away price when he shows me his lap times? Or will he then pull my pants down about being a poorfag?

pls respond

He will be btfo by the price and you are btfo by performance. It's lose lose user. Lrn2drive and out drive him.

If you have 90 minutes watch this

Then go back to the track with what you learned

i thought you had to brake and downshift

It's constantly evolving. The Nipponese don't fuck about when they're on a roll.

Just get a Sport bike and be done with it.

I'm honestly contemplating a 3.5 Ecoboost conversion. I'm sure that would help me recover and then I could compete.

You realize that you got the maymay backwards, right? The GT-R is a pigfat lolcantturn stoplight racer and only won because it has lower drag than the Corvette with the ductail and it hooks up better on the straights.

are you joking? it has all wheel drive. it would destroy a corvtech easily around the corners regardless of weight if it's able to have god like grip.

Learn to drive ;)

Seeing this just makes me wanna play AC or pCARS.
Both my cars 273HP/440Nm and 210HP/350Nm cars are FWD so I can't have hektic fun with them.

>fake lap times
Pic related

Not even motortrend believes those times

AWD isn't good at turning corners. Look at Le Mans Prototypes. They're all AWD, but none of them have the engine attached to the front wheels. They just have the KERS attached to the fronts, which is only activated when the wheels are pointing dead ahead.

And if you look at the telemetry from the Z06 vs GT-R shootout at Willow Springs, you'll see that the Corvette gets blown away at the start, comes back in the first five corners, and then gets completely ravaged on the back straight and sweeper.

>automatic

>keeps expecting people to believe fake lap times
If they're real why didn't motortrend use them? Oh, right. Because the times are fake.

right on cue

:^)

I don't think you know what you're doing.

There he is. There he goes again. Look, everyone! He posted it yet again! Isn’t he just the funniest guy around?! Oh my fucking God.

I can almost see your pathetic overweight frame glowing in the dark, lit by your computer screen which is the only source of light in your room, giggling like a little girl as you once again post your little Nissan Lap Times in a perfectly good thread and fill in the captcha. Or maybe you don’t even fill in the captcha. Maybe you’re such a disgusting NEET that you actually paid for a Veeky Forums pass, so you just choose the picture. Oh, and we all know the picture. The “epic” GT-R VS. Corvette pic, isn’t it? I imagine you little shit laughing so hard as you click it that you drop your Cheetos on the floor, but it’s ok, your mother will clean it up in the morning. Oh, that’s right. Did I fail to mention? You live with your mother. You are a fat fucking fuckup, she’s probably so sick of you already. So sick of having to do everything for you all goddamn day, every day, for a grown man who spends all his time on Veeky Forums posting about a fucking japanese sports car you will never afford. Just imagine this. She had you, and then she thought you were gonna be a scientist or an astronaut or something grand, and then you know what happened? You became a NEET. A pathetic shitposting NEET. The bottom of the fucking barrel. She probably cries herself to sleep every night thinking about how bad it is and how she wishes she could just disappear. She can’t even try to talk with you because all you say is “GM BTFO!" and "ASSMAD GM FANGIRL!" You’ve become a parody of your own self. And that’s all you are. A sad little man laughing in the dark by himself as he prepares to indulge in the same old dance that he’s done a million times now. And that’s all you’ll ever be..

Says the guy posting fake lap times haha

Even ecoboost can beat pigfat gtr
