[Edit] I also assumed it was a 5 sec lead overall, but now I'm not sure, is it 5 secs per race? This post has been edited by Dr1FT3R on Oct 15 2007, 11:18 AM |

It would be nice to see where we stand and when the times must be submitted to avoid "having tryst" due to a heavy lack of information. |

The Yakuza know my Carlton is harder to catch than a Lancer or Impreza, so they sent their M3's Maybe to get out of being killed I'll join the Yakuza better start running... | ||

I think his name was "dorikin" or something? |

Jeremy Clarkson Lists of participants still on the run Richard Hammond To those who will, or are still in the run from the Yakuza, highlight the space below in between the astrieks... * Challenge 2B Be careful, the Yakuza has just gotten even more enraged after hearing that some managed to escape. Because of that, they have gotten more rash, hence you have to fight your way through these locations... Difficulty 4, two laps -Seoul Central Normal -Hong Kong Normal -Seattle Circuit Reverse (Just picture out as Japan) This time, get serious, and fight your way through. There's no time lead this time round. So long you get aggressive and prove worthy that the Yakuza underlings chasing get afraid, they will back off. The car might get dents and so on, but due to the management's fault, they will compensate by providing free repair (Meaning free body refresher) and oil change. Get moving, the Yakuzas are not going to quit! Post overall times and pictures... The management had managed to rig your cars with cameras to see the action and proof...* This post has been edited by outlaw-2 on Oct 16 2007, 07:26 AM |

IDW Goldmember Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,133 Member No.: 2,798 Joined: Aug 25th 2004 Location: Levanger, Norway | It seems like our Japan trip took a turn for the worse, when all of a sudden a few cars surrounded my Evo 6. In my passenger seat I had Traction Monster industries top driver, why he hitched with me instead of with the truck carrying his car is beyond me... Anyway, onto the story which shocked me a bit. The Yakuza seemed to come out of nowhere and well, they tried to surround my Evo 6... Well I didn't know it was Yakuza at first before that Traction Monster driver mentioned it and pointed out that they were packing weapons, after that he told me to floor it and get this Evo moving. It didn't take long to take out their leader, the raw sheer power of the Evo 6 quickly put me at his tail followed by some quick manoeuvring I got on his side and had the inside line for the corner, as a result I left him in the dust. After nabbing the lead this was the last they would ever see of my Evo 6 RS TME as I disappeared in the distance shortly afterwards with screams of 4WD. End result? 2'55.186 with a DNF for the Evo 2 that had the lead, in fact I don't know how far he was behind me as I crossed the finish line as he never got a finish time AT ALL! Outrun 1? Complete success. The Yakuza didn't give up either, and when they showed up again the Traction Monster guy got annoyed and told me to move over the passenger seat. I think it had something to do with the fact that he knew this course fairly well and that he was starting to get annoyed with them. Anyway, the poor Evo was now practically flying, it may be old and outdated technologically but he sure drove the guts out of this thing and had me cringing to my seat as he drove at speeds that are WAY out of my capacity. After the Yakuza showed up, he started passing them as they tried to block him in, all failed at that, however that yellow FD caught his eye for some reason and as he passed him I could see him shaking a fist at its driver, clearly they knew each other I guess. Lead was nabbed rather quickly and the gang desperatly tries to catch up to the Evo, although ultimately failing. Nissan Fairlady Z Version ST (Z33) '02 2'46.408 Mazda RX-7 Type R (FD, J) '91 (Keisuke?) Sunburst yellow: 2'48.916 Forgot to note the exact time I won by but... I ran a time of 2'37.360... Now I will be back tomorrow with the final run... So far it is looking good. This post has been edited by Sweeper on Oct 16 2007, 06:27 AM |

If they get twoo free upgrades or fixes, I demand that in the name of fair race, others get at least one, or I'll introduce your expensive executive rides to my friends that are better known as angle grinder and multiple gallons of premium fuel. *returns to his car* |

Oil-changing a used car once makes it healthy and up to full power again. Which is allowed from the start. But when you oil change it again, you get nothing, if MINIMAL bhp gains. Just be thankful your car is new, and gains an advantage from oil | ||

Now excuse me, I have an oilchange to do. I hope that James won't end up being sliced to sushi style.. oh, there seems to be a fire in the neighbouring hotel. I wonder if fifth gear is playing with fire again? This post has been edited by FinToy-83 on Oct 16 2007, 07:29 AM |
