Steward's Comments:
Bringing back the Mini for a second event on GT5, and a little twist on a great Prologue combo.


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, T2, and T3 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!

    • In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
    • If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
  • 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.

This pretty much confirms my decision to not bother with the 'ring any more, sounds like fun - I'm getting short-lap withdrawal symptoms :lol:

Cheers Kevin!
 
👍👍👍

Done with the ring myself, I don't think I can get any better, or concentrate that much any more!
 
Last time I played GT5 was WRS Week 32, it's been a while!

Need to get back on though for GT Academy, so gonna be giving this one a go. 👍
 
Sound interresting with the sport medium in front and sport hard on rear 👍

Cheers, sorted.
 
I can actually sort-of run this combo. Still won't be as fast as i can be.

Might be a good way to get a replay showing how off my pedals are as well.
 
It's like pinball!

REALLY liking this combo!

T1: 28.504
T2: 17.713

I really like this city track (starting to like city tracks in general after years of hating them) and I love the Mini for it's pretty neutral handling characteristics.

Edit: At what RPMs are you guys shifting at? This thing makes peak torque from 1500-5000 revs and peak horsepower at 5500.

Loving it so far... Run 10 Laps before and early night. T1 I think is the make or break place, do much time to be gained or lost! Still trying to find the right line.

T1: 28.924
T2: 18.226
 
Lost a tiny bit in T2, but picked up almost a half second in T1. I see a few hundred laps in my near future!

T1: 28.060
T2: 17.760
 
27.962
17.339

1 second quicker now that I've read the rules....

3/5 BB seems to work well. ABS 5
 
Hrm, looks like I did a bit of ass-u-ming about the rules. I though I'd read somewhere that all hard surfaces were track in city circuits... guess it's time to re-learn the track!

You assumed correct 👍. I assumed the opposite, which was wrong!
