I read the rules...



So this passage for example is regular?

:rolleyes:


Thanks... 👍

I wouldn't allow it! I never raced that way last night .. but if everyone else is gonna be using it and I can gain some more then fair enough I will change my lines tonight! But I dont like it at all and think its a shortcut for sloppy drivers :sly: but occasionally we have to use them to keep up I suppose :dunce:
 
Just a short session to get acquainted

32.963
1:03.791

using 340 but need to drop a bit to get gears to match corners better and maybe save a few shifts. I am still dropping into second in quite a few places

Another great combo Sjaak 👍👍

I think it's just because it's christmas, hence the santa smiley. It's a gift for some, :lol:. Usually we haven't been allowing extra concrete areas. Gotta mix things up sometimes! Also, from what I remember from BC6, everything that was concrete was allowed then, which took me a while to get used to on some of the races. Then again, I ended up competing in one that didn't have extra track anywhere...
Week 139 Race Specifics:

All hard pavements like concrete are part of the track this week.

Cheers Kyle ... tbh I looked at the rules last night and somehow the part in red with santa saying all concrete was in play was invisible to me? :dunce:

Looking forward to more laps tonight when the brats are in bed 👍
 
Power off.....Power on.....Power back off and then back on again:scared: I wish they would fix the damned thing. The price I pay for living up here I suppose.:ill: It's raising hell with everything around here that's for sure.:grumpy:

33.823
1'06.595

Edit: Made some progress and haven't got to using the concrete yet.

33.443
1'05.235
 
Ok i grabbed a few laps when all the kids went upstairs wrecking the rest of the house and I saw a chance :dopey: Got a new lap very quickly and never even used the extra concrete until the 2nd last turn before the final straight as its a blatant place to gain some tenths .. the section after T1 has more speed staying within the rumble boundaries imo! anyway here's my splits from my new save .. 31.718 / 1'01.851 and took .3 off at the line simply using the shortcut near the end of the lap :)

Back later with an update for sure! :cheers:

And the gtrp.de record database is full of it. :sly:

GTRP Database Rules:

The following instances belong to the track:

Tarmac
Curbs
Sidewalks
Any kind of rumble strip made of concrete, stone etc (see Nurburgring Nordschleife)
Tarmac or any other kind of road mentioned above that's situated beyond curbs
Tarmac partially covered with dirt or sand (see El Capitan)
 
First sessione for me!

T1 31.682
T2 1.01.219


I'm not sure the lap is clean...

However, in this session is very very very important to turn the car! 👍

I have 2 tenths maximum to improve!

👍
 
First try on the WRS for quiet a while, so I might be a bit rusty...

I'm gearing at 330 at the moment, with TCS on. Started with the TCS off, but since I use a DS and AT (still can't get the hang of MT :indiff:), the wheelspin in 2nd is nearly impossible to control.

First splits:
T1: 32.791
T2: 1'04.165

Just when I learned how to get Ron's splits, now you come with those times!! :eek: :bowdown:

What does "turn the car" mean here? Making it slide while braking?
 
Ehm...can someone please tell me where i can find the car because I can't find it :S Even in GT mode to go and buy it i just have the normal 3 zondas......(soz if this sounds like an amateur question :P)

Have to win missions 21-24 in GT mode (Slipstream Battles). #23 is a real pain, but you can find some helpful tips around the net on how to beat it. Basically just maintain a line with your right tires on the right yellow line that is just right of center on the track, and let the competition pass on the straights so you can draft them going into the corners. Important to follow that line because it forces the comp cars to draft off of you in the corners. Good Luck!

So I turned on my PS3 this morning and downloaded the new update. Then I put in GT4 to try this race, and it no longer recognizes my G25! WTF?!?!
 
ran 6/7 laps with the ds2, auto tranny (380), tcs
T1 33.755
T2 1'06.552

don't change the leaderboard (ds2) unless you have to as i'm hoping to back with the dfp on friday
this seems to be more fun than I remember using the ds2 and auto
I know it's a lot less work and doesn't bother my shoulder as much either, can't wait to get back to the regular setup though
Thanks EDK for the replay tips

what a great combo 👍
EDIT the exhaust on the Pagani reminds me of the Batmobile from the (? 60's-70's) tv show batman
 
SirTakiS, I am too physically exhausted and mentally occupied to remember the details, but not too long ago a save was offered through a thread here. It offers 988 cars, and is the only save that will keep you ready for WRS. Hopefully, someone more competent can help you further, but that's the one you want. If I wake up early and find the link, I'll try to post it. That's the best I have for now.👍
Race ON!!:cheers:
 
Well after a pretty mediocre first run on sunday, I dove in for a little splash today after running my SGT race. I am very curious where I'm losing my time! I figure it's probably in braking and corner speed. I am just starting to work with the higher horsepower cars in the game. I still need to run the longer championships in Extreme Hall as when I first started playing the new found sensation of speed that GT4 offered was pretty intense. I have also found some extra time in a little longer gearing and using second gear to really drive out of corners hard. I haven't found wheelspin to be to much of a problem as long as you keep the front wheels pretty straight and the car through the corner. Anyways insight from a Div.2 midpacker. Times

Gearing 380
t1-32.941
t2-1.04.211

I've seen a 1.03.994 but mucked up t3 just slightly enough to make a slower lap by a hair. Still a ways off from 006r and Sjaak! Good luck to the rest of D2. I'll be chasing all week!
 
first half an hour racing at grand valley.

t1 34.089
t2 1.06.083

I still need to understand the behavior of this car. Not using driving aids and it's fun, but sometimes the car has a little umpredictable reaction if gas not measured correctly.
Corner braking after the straight is quite difficult, the weight goes to the front tires and the back slips out very easily.
I'm really enjoying this combo 👍
 
luxy EDIT 55 59 67

i'm sure it was ron/mr p that offered his übersave somewhere in the last few wrs weeks containing almost 1000 cars.

Excuse me, I translate with google and not is much clear,I try to explain better...👍



Is much important drift the car during some curves including the two bends.... 👍


As for words is really hard to understand and very hard to do explain...

If you want I can upload the replay but I don't believe that this is possible looking at the rules ...👍

See you soon
 
I'm awake now and can see Sphinx has taken care of the uber-save. Well done, sir.👍👍👍
 
Well, worked on it last night. Put in quite a few laps (not much else going on) and still I can see 4/10ths out there yet on my final lap time.

31.978
1'02.316

I have seen a 1'02.1xx multiple times but I am having a hard time being consistent through that last slow s-curve before the final bend and straight! :crazy:

:cheers:

Take care of whatever is bothering your shoulder NOW! The older you get the worse it will get, take it from a geezer who knows! I used to play golf.....everyday. I used to have a solid 4 handicap, now I can't even swing the freakin' club.:grumpy: Some nights I'm forced to sleep in the guest room 'cause I smell like "icy hot" so bad.

Sorry mod, off topic. My bad!:guilty:

Sjaak, another great combo. Really enjoying this one at least for the next two days then it's off to OH-10!👍👍

Yes that's it div. 2 drivers, start beating me, if I get gold I get disqualified coz I can't upload replays, please beat me.
 
I think that gold and silver times...etc are a pre-set time. I don't think it matters what the drivers get, so if your time is a "gold" time, me or anyone else beating you won't help. (Again I'm not 100%) Sjaak is this correct??

I had the same thing happen with my G25. Try plugging the USB cable into the third USB port on your PS3. Like this:

USB-------USB-------USB-------USB
