Steward's Comments:
The combo seems simple, but car control will be the key this week. Have fun sliding the Subaru around the track. 👍


Viewing your T1 & T2 Time Splits:

• You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay'.

• To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
• While Viewing Your Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times
• To post your T1 and T2 Splits, simply post the sector times that are shown in the live timing monitor.
• The WRS Fetchbot has been updated and will now add your splits together!

Standard Clean OLR Rules:

• 2 wheels on (or vertically in line with) the track at all times
• 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
• Save your best lap/ghost replay

Thread rules:

The following information cannot be discussed in this thread (they can, however, be discussed on MSN or via other private conversation methods):

• Total Lap Time
• Any information which can be used to infer your total laptime

The following information can be discussed in this thread :

• T1 and T2 times
• Any settings discussion.

Number of splits: 2

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 29 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):

• Please submit your time in the following format on a single line:
  Time: X'XX.XXX
  (Example-)
  
  Time: 1'10.100

• Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the body: "get entry"
• Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the body of "remove entry".
• If multiple times are submitted, only the last submission will be counted.
• Please include in your submission PM your final lap time
• The deadline is Monday, September 5th 11:59pm GMT
• If you are unsure of the deadline try this site

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 Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.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 ghost 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,
OLR Team

Found some time in between races with Chuk and Jake to get this one put up. We'll probably go run this online for a bit in an hour or so, come join us if you'd like. 👍

 

[599GT]

This looks fun, hopefully my registration will be completed and I'll get my division placement.
2 WRS events are gone since my submission. :/

Sounds like Wes territory

I have never done one of these 2 lap combos so should be fun, judging by you're comment Kev tells me this car is a handful

 

[T13R]

How should we post up our splits for this?

T1 lap 1: x'xx.xxx
T2 lap 1: x'xx.xxx
T1 lap 2: x'xx.xxx
T2 lap 2: x'xx.xxx

 

[mcfizzle]

Wait, is it 2 laps or is that part left over from the previous event here? No where else does it mention 2 laps except the end.

Edit: i'm pretty sure it's meant to be just 1 lap.

It's one lap, I screwed up, Will fix it now.

EDIT : Wow, I really screwed up. I also put the wrong compound in the first post, please refer back to it if you have already run some.

 

[T13R]

Crap, I just put in about an hour on this doing a 2 lap race on S2's front and back. I saved my best lap but I have to throw it away now due to wrong compound

 

[mcfizzle]

Chuk will do that to you.

Damn, I was already getting excited.
Great combo nonetheless. I look forward to giving this one a go.

 

[T13R]

Ok, so at least it wasn't time wasted, got a good idea of the track. Just need to be a lot more gentle with the steering on the double left at the end of the downhill straight. No TC, first splits:

18.413
22.411

 

[dranddad]

T1: 0'18.819
T2: 0'23.022

[NINE_HUNDRED]

You may need to remove the "Save replay" part as it's not two laps. As I assume we just save the ghost as normal.

Might confuse any new members taking part.

While we're at it - is it 'Save Replay' or 'Save Ghost Replay'? The post mentions both and with a one-lap Time Trial a Ghost Replay does seem to make more sense to me...

22.727 Tapped a wall didn't hear it first time watching replay looked clean but wasn't

Thanks. Ghost replay, I will fix that also.

 

[BloodiMayhem]

I've been busy bolting my wheel rig together and its finally finished - hence the lack of runs for me the past few weeks.
Might unleash the beast on this one this week.
Nice job Kev.
Good luck guys.
Cheers All

 

[GTP_Remo]

Getting better

18.876
22.422

Still lots of room for improvment.

 

[Gravitron]

Gave up dancing with the German ladies and went for this combo...which is super-fun! 👍

I think my extreme brake setup may be killing my stopping distance, though.

I'm shifting way before redline, around 6500 7000.

ABS 9, BB 1/0, TS 35/65

18.797
22.708

 

[Seismica]

Looks fun 👍 Will certainly give this one a go. I think this one is going to be very close.

 

[Denur]

To drift of not to drift, and how to set up for the best lap?! Fun it is anyway. 👍

First attempt with 45:55 and default 5:5 bb:

18.516
22.344

 

[MilleRSVR]

First ten laps. I wish my drifting skills were better, this thing really slides the rear with this tire combo. Better than the front pushing though.

Lots of work to do.

T1, 19.241
T2, 23.035

 

[Im_Lukas]

Kept messing up on the double left but eventually got some clean laps.

18.730
22.405

 

[MilleRSVR]

A little progress, that double left is a b**ch. need lots of work there.
BB 8/5, TS 50/50, Abs 3.

New splits,

T1, 18.673
T2, 23.111

 

[Super T]

Am I just incredibly slow/rusty/stupid (delete as applicable) or am I doing something wrong with my split times, I'm getting T2's in the region of 42-43 seconds not low 20's as everyone seems to be posting???

Edit: Nevermind, it's the time from T1 to T2.

 

[GTP_Luds78]

Wow that's a tricky little track. Fun combo though. If anyone has some tips for Any settings we can play with or how to tackle that double left that would be great. After a quick session here are my times.
S1. 19.293
S2. 23.203

 

[NINE_HUNDRED]

Giving this a go tonight 👍 Though I'm not too good with the tail happy cars.

 

[GTP_Plato]

First Splits

T1 18.447

Have not changed B/B or any other settings yet. Anybody using active steering?

 

[Madbeater]

First 10 lap stint
