Steward Comments:
We all remember trying for those Gold Licenses on GT4. This week's race is in honor of the "Coffee Breaks" that happened along the way. Those of course used this week's car, the Suzuki Cappuccino. As an added bonus, I've gotten rid of those silly cones. ;) I hope you have fun, this is an addictive little combo in regard to chipping away at those tenths. Don't forget to use the N1 Tires. :mischievous:

  • Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
  • No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
  • If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty
  • No hybrids
  • No cheating of any kind,these are relaxed races and we are experienced racers, we know what times can be done,and we can read your mind.We will know.
  • Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules

Why Use GMT?:

GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the centre of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.


Time verification:


Save your replay and keep it at least a full two weeks after the event's deadline:


  • Racers ,named by the OLR Admin staff, (if any) will be required to submit a replay for verification
  • Any submitted time is subject to a time verification request
  • When a time verification has been requested, the concerned racer must provide the correct replay within seven days of the request
  • Failure to do so will result in the removal of the unverified submission from the results table
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

Good luck, :gtplanet:

First session:

26.874
48.351

Slippery and slow. Good combination to train some throttle control. :D
 
This is surprisingly a lot of fun. It's amazing how a slight change in line results in a 0.3s gain. I guess that's what happens with 63hp.

After about 10 laps:
T1: 26.907
T2: 48.030
Edit: Another 10 laps
T1: 26.545
T2: 47.611
Messed up the last corner though :irked:


Another 20 laps. The gains are slowing down now :grumpy:

T1: 26.528
T2: 47.620

Didn't mess up the last corner this time, so 0.2s gained overall. 👍

This is one of those addictive 'Just one more lap' combos, great fun 👍

First splits after ten laps,

26.536
47.609
 
26.472
47.613

Got a beautiful first corner (don't think I'll better it), should've been braver through T2, and almost spun it on the final bend. Still, an overall improvement :)
 
Is that the time? I never knew the Cap could be so much fun in its plainest form.

26.464
47.289
 
Oops! Still stuck on last week. Saved my replay not ghost replay. I'll try again later in the week. Fun little combo!
 
one thing I have learnt from driving this car in the coffee breaks all those years ago, is that I still HATE this car :lol:

0'26.730
0'47.721
 
Finally found time to get the ps3 on and run a couple of laps, not sure if I'll get any more in this week :(
Best so far:

T1 - 26.756
T2 - 47.851
 
Fun combo! Remembered to save best lap this time.

26.694
48.162
 
First attempt:

T1 0'26.514
T2 0'47.429

What's with all the convertibles lately - I'm wondering if Kevin is starting to wish he had waited for the ragtop Challenger. :)
 
Had another go yesterday managing a decent last sector

26.219
46.909

Time submitted.

Shift at 150km/h 4th gear, 3rd 113. After T1 (1st corner 92 minimum) maintain 109 right kink, 108 (try to) left, lift and 102 (minimum speed) right, left full throtle 105, right lift in 3rd, down to 85 then acelerate out, crossing line at 131.5-132

Just trying to keep it interesting and pick cars we haven't used yet. :)

Had my first real session tonight, finding this one even more enjoyable than I did in the testing.

Short stint

26.615
47.648


This thing is so narrow, I was still half a car width away from the ripple strips on the passenger side, when I flicked over to the replay :lol:


Ok I found where the left side of the car is.:lol:

Is it me or is everyone getting really good at this WRS? LOL! N1/N1 right? Just making sure, don't know why but I'm way off pace.
