[R]GTO'95 MR Wins at Grand Valley A Third Time!

This time I ran the [R]GTO'95 MR with racing intercooler, and semi-racing exhaust, instead of normal intercooler.

   Sunday May 16, 1999
   [R]GTO'95 MR
   Grand Valley 300km Endurance Race

      q1st 1:36.268rec     Cr20,000
  
  

Results:

      1st  [R]GTO'95 MR         1-35:15.6<--
     2nd  [R]IMPREZA RLY Ed     +497.316   (1-43:32.9)
     3rd  [R]PRIMERA'90 2.0Te   +513.698
     4th  [R]CELICA GT-FOUR     +628.678
     5th  [R]LANTIS TypeR       +772.801
     6th  [R]ACCORD Sedan       +819.046
  
      lap 1   1:37.299
     pits   10,20,30,40,50
     fl  (2)  1:30.840
     slowest  non-pit   (49)  1:36.584
               next     (8)   1:35.726
     fastest pit laps   (20in)  1:48.248
                        (41out) 1:37.720
     slowest pit laps   (40in)  1:53.918
                        (21out) 1:42.685
  

So, I led from start to finish again. The first two cars were lapped by lap eight, and the third by lap 10, the field by lap 14; some cars were lapped for the second time by lap 16.

A little eye irritation slowed me slightly after lap 20, but went away after a couple of laps.

You can see this was an absurdly slow field. In fact, the more I try and remember the details, the more I think I must have done this race *after* racing the tuned GTO'95 MR. At times it's like the game responds to the calibre of your previous entrant.

I believe I used the tuned car as a model to help with gear settings suitable for use with heavier turbocharging.

I won Cr300,000, and a black/blue Castrol Supra GT.

I was pleased that I took another 30 seconds off my time with this car.
