Steward's Comments:

Another redo, from the GT5P days. I wish I'd found the WRS sooner, when they ran this beast around Suzuka. :drool:

Combo by @PASM & @GTP_Dutchy, original by @EDK :D


Viewing your T1 & T2 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 & T2 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual split times, 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 Skype or via other private IM service.):
  • 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 2 splits: T1 and T2 times
  • Any settings discussion


Submission:
All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 123 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, May 30th 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, :gtplanet:
OLR Team
 
My car is Viola Dino with Black Wheels. I fondly recall the Prologue days of this combo. And @PASM was cutting his teeth and improving to D1 Gold back then. 👍

For those who like their F40's a little bit less death trappy, here's my first pass at a stabilizing tune -

EDKTune
RH 60/62
Springs 11.22/11.22
Dampers Comp 1/1
Dampers Ext 2/2
ARB 6/7
Camber 0/0
Toe 0/-0.08

BB 2/3

LSD 8/24/19

Initial splits

58.284
1:44.167
 
Had to dust off the ps3 for this one, such a fun car.

Using @PASM tune. 👍 Set the bb to 5/3, and arb to 4/6

56.850
1'42.500

Unfortunately, it may be difficult to get more seat time. Out of town for the weekend, but maybe one more session this week and again on Monday.
 
If this car isn't in GT Sport at Nov launch, I'll admit, I'll be mad. :ouch:

At least someone spied RUF in the cars list. :D

Looking forward to the online races, and great splits so far! :cheers:

and pebble's in your buttcrack :P if you don't go off in this combo you're not pushing hard enough :P

And at least once before I make it onto the start/finish straight.
The final chicane at Suzuka has been a pain in my rear for ever :nervous:
 
57.314
1'42.480
sector1=👎👎👎

most driving time invested to find a tune that really works´s for me:
80/80
min/min
1/1
1/1
7/7
0/0
0/0.1
BB 5/2
LSD 8/10/8
is where I ended up and I'm sure this has potential to be real quick. Just seriously messed up the esses.

So far the combo is living up to its name :lol: Keep at it guys. If I can get some time I might have a go too.
 
After spending a large amount of time laying in the sand working on my tan I made a conservative lap just to get some splits up there.

59.623
1:46.923

Next time I might have the veggies to let the turbos spool up...
 
A wild piece of conversation comes to mind when we tested the combo

@PASM :

@GTP_Dutchy
Why are you asking me this stupid question?

@PASM

What @MadMax thought:
Apply+cold+water+to+the+burn+_629dc5e58d873129f847acd98327431b.jpg


p.s everybody who sees this last picture automatically assumes the lady is pooring cold water. But one could argue that vile woman is tortuting her husband and the picture was shot right before he A pulled back is hand and B ((optionally) depending on relationship balance) Slapped her right in the face.

p.p.s Sorry for that bit of disturbingness I guess my creative side always wants to find multiple ways to interperit images.

p.p.p.s I think I've seen more gravel that Novak Djokovic. The only real diverence between me and him is that Novak is in the business of grand slams, I only get grand slappers.
