Race Specifics:
  • The event MUST be run using your registered account
  • The use of the clutch that is found on the G25, G27, and other high end racing wheels is strictly prohibited.
  • Use of the Handbrake is Prohibited.
  • No Contact with walls or other objects. Any contact with walls, no matter how minor, will result in a DQ.
  • All Surfaces Are Track, just don't hit the walls, invisiwalls, pit walls, pit entrances, sign posts, walls. You get the point. Don't hit crap.

Steward's Comments:
One of my favorite cars, period. And I love the city tracks. Many fond combos for me with this car and tires, these come to mind.
I realize we're just coming off of a road car with about the same power and weight, with the same tires. But this is on a flat city track without the 8+ minute lap and knife edge risk of the Green Hell. With laps around 2 minutes, you should be able to get in plenty of practice and master this mini beast.

Viewing your T1 and 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 - T9 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 125 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, June 13th 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
 
Hey....two great racer's combos in a row. I had the pleasure of giving it a go with Grav, Patrick and MM...after todays WW race. As a slightly older, fiercely enthusiastic racer I whole heartedly give this the paw print of approval.
Sweet
 
Nice Looking combo,I've never driven this paticular s2000 but I like the track 👍.. looking forward to getting started on this one tonight.

1'09.076

A good sector 3 got me 5 tenths at the line. Shfting a bit after red line. Most turns better to stay in higher gear.
Turn1 3rd
Turn 2 and 3 I stay in 4th
The long sweeper go from 5th to 4th.
The next left I stay. In 4th.
High speed chicane 5th, with a slight lift.
I go to 4th entering the tight wall part, get to 5th then to 4th, for next to last turn.
Last turn 3rrd and keep it tight. You can get on gas fairly early.
 
Anyone else having trouble with the TC reverting to default with this car? I've turned it of with the options and the R/A function and it keeps turning back to 5???

Also, my vtec is not crackin' yo. Where's my vtec???

Having lots of fun with this one.Sector2 seems to be the one I need to figure out. Just passed what I Thought would be a really good lap for me, time to set the bar a bit higher.

17.600
1'08.867

Edit, the races should be really good this week.

I guess what happens is, Arcade mode doesn't care about taking your settings along unless you open the car Settings menu. So anything you do after that is forgotten, including the car's odometer (it's a feature, think guests). Of course you still have to save all this to the console later.

The problem I'm having is even with a simple restart it turns TC back on. I use a ds3 so It's especially annoying trying to maintain control and navigate the R/A menu at the same time, so I just use every first lap as a sort of out lap and get it all squared away.

Ya, I've noticed that the R/A functions don't always stick for quite a while. It should work if you go into driving options and set tc to 0 before entering the track. Make sure to enter the settings menu before quitting too.

Just noticed you already tried from the options menu as well, so I'm not sure what the issue might be.:ill:
