Steward's Comments:

Decisions, Decisions.... Which one of these silver arrows should you choose? That's the question this week. This week is kind of a throwback week, with two cars of relatively old age, but that doesn't mean they're slow.

The title is also a reference to WRS Week 28 in GT5. This time around you have the other DTM car compared to that combo, the CLK, paired with the Group C monster that is called the Sauber C9.

Results will be posted for each car respectively. The leaderboard will not show which car you are using, but please share in your posts. You have to choose one car or the other, you cannot submit times for both.

The next decision will be to taking part or not in the upcoming WRS 2.4 hour Endurance Special! Decisions, Decisions....

Viewing your Time Splits:
  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay' (See pic below)
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Gallery' option.
  • Live timing monitor does not work properly, so we have to use a small trick to view splits.
  • While viewing your Replay, pause the lap by hitting start, before the end of the first sector.
  • While keeping the replay paused, advance the replay, using the forward arrow on the replay HUD. This will advance the replay to the end of the first sector. That's your T1 split, write it down.
  • Advance the replay again. That will show the lap to date time on the screen, this is your first and second sector time, added together.
  • To post your T1 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual T2 split time, the Fetchbot will do that for you.

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
  • At Least 2 Tires must be in contact with track at all times.
    • 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 in-line 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.
  • Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules

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 :
  • The first 3 splits: T1, T2 & T3 times
  • Any settings discussion

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 60 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):
  • Then attach your 'Best Lap'/'Ghost' replay in zip file form. Everyone submits a replay instead of listing a lap time.
  • You will need to put something in the message body in order to begin a conversation. It doesn't matter what you put, it can even be 1 letter or symbol. Nobody but the Fetchbot is going to see it, so it's sort of pointless, anyhow.
  • You will get an automated response within 15min, letting you know whether your submission was accepted, or if you had an error.
  • If you have an error, don't panic. Just review the instructions for submission and submit again. If you are having trouble and cannot figure it out, please post your question in the race thread.
  • Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week XX Get Entry" and any text in the body.
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week XX Remove Entry" and any text in the body.
  • If you want to submit multiple times in the week that is still not a problem. Just reply to the conversation with your new time and new replay. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • See this screenshot as an example on how to submit:

  • The deadline is Monday, March 16th 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.

Replay Checking:
  • Everyone is required to submit a replay for verification. This happens when you submit to the Fetchbot, and the replays will be visible in the leaderboard, once we've reached the event deadline
  • Participants will be expected to check each others' replays for cleanliness, for replays marked in the Results thread as (Check Needed)
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

Good luck, :gtpflag:

I can only see another tenth or so right now.

This thing is insane in the best possible way. Using Bart's (@PASM) tune with the following changes.

Rear arb 5
Rear camber 1.0
Rear toe .10
Diff 10/15/5
 
that's for sure the Sauber - else I'm running the wrong track after nearly 2000kms of online practicing ;)

and for me I see at least .5 to improve - had a 32.7 1st split in those 10 laps I did + I didn't really hit the Schumacher S in that one
 
Phew. I had a 33.xxx t1 in the dtm, and thought I was 3 seconds off the pace already.

Might run the midfield again tonight, and this one tomorrow for some splits.

33.3's were my best T1's online with the GT so I think you're fine :)
 
ARRGH :mad:🤬 Just had this:

32.954
57.334
1'22.884


Just to be .002 slower at the line. I have to correct my "getting at least .5 faster" expectation. Only around 2 tenths left for me, obviously.
 
Had a quick go before school, 7 tenths improvement and 110 km on the clock now :)

30.383
52.483
1'15.500

I hope i'm right by going on racing mediums?

You're really throwing down the gauntlet Richard! I was at least 8 thenths off that in my lap for the reference replay in a short 5 lap try. Given that I already had some practice online, those are stonking splits!

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Meanwhile I linked your setup in the OP of both threads.

More rear aero feels better offline. Online feels like it has more understeer.
 
I found more time today than I thought was in it, more than 1 second at the line compared to Sunday. Car feels awesome, you really have to trash it merciless. This was with my own setup.
