Damn, I just looked at the rankings for Myogi. The Capp leads the board at 2'53 Counter-Clock!!!!

Clockwise, a R34 and a Capp are tied at 2'53 with Zack's R32 behind them by miliseconds!!!

BTW, in reference to my bad luck last week, go check out Akagi DH Dry for the USA Central 1-50. If Akira is still no.1 there, he's the guy I had to race everytime I battled!!! He's ranked 1075 in the world, but if you look at the times all you have to do is gain one whole second and you can jump like 200+ positions . . .

Yeah, well...it would be more convenient. My AIM's there on the button below.

And yes, you spelled Irohazaka correctly. And I'm not sure if I'm going to return to Irohazaka for Version 3 or master a different course. Shomaru and Tuschisaka are very promising. Ah well.

[Rusty_Blade]

yeah for some reason, I'm more intimidated by Iro in this one than in ver.2 . . .

I was hoping that I could change the parts course on my cars when I'd transfer, but you cannot.

May or may not be able to go up to the mall to play this week, experinceing some car trouble unfortunatly . . .

[Duralath]

Yeah, you can't change your parts course at card transfer. Whichever one you left it with in Version 2 is the one you're gonna have at transfer.

And yes, the physics in Irohazaka have changed dramatically. It is no longer like Version 2. It's much harder.

I played earlier today...managed 3'16 on Shomaru IB. It seems that I have an affinity for Inbound courses now. Happogahara IB, Shomaru IB...now all that's left is to take Tuschisaka IB at my arcade. Shouldn't be too hard, now...

[oO Kaworu Oo]

i use:
ver 2: rx-7 spirit R
ver 3: rx-8,evo 4

onli reason i believe iro got harder is becuz cane or whoever(mr2) actrully jumps now like in the anime

rx-8 is like rated 2nd on both dry and wet... but like 20th in snow.... over all i still pick gc8v (code for it now is shift up 6 times, down 2 hold brake and press change view), evo 4, and rx-8

RX-8 is first in Dry and Wet now. It edged out the Capp in the Dry and the R32 in the Wet. But yeah, it's not that great in the Snow.

[Duralath]

Bump.

[Rusty_Blade]

I would argue that, because Akira raced snow, and he made it look totally easy. I'll be up there tomorrow this time for sure. I got to get my FD leveled up!

[~Dr. Feelgood~]

I haven't played the game, but I've seen episodes 1-6. Pretty good anime series. I won't give away who drives the 8-6. But I'm sure you guys know.

[Cooliomo]

i played ver 1 and 2 i like the sil80 maya and simon drives

[Rusty_Blade]

the sil80 is a cool, but confusing car. I have googled my a** of trying to find out what year model that is.

If you're arguing against the SE3P being not-so-great in the snow...just check the ID V3 rankings. SE3P isn't near the top. In fact, the Trueno even beats it out. 4WD rules the snow. Besides, Akira's a strong player. Snow ain't easy, especially if you don't have 4WD. Leave it to the cars like the ST205, the R34, the GC8V, and the CN9A to dominate the snow.

Yeah I know, but then again what I saw was pure skill.

It just goes to show that its not the car that counts, but the driver.

Anybody can go get an RX-8 and drive it, how well depends on their ability.

But all in all, yeah I know, the RX-8 sucks in Snow lol
