Just jagged and hour in the Normal while the wife has been asleep:

Tuned: 1'36.284
Normal: 1'48.271
Overall: 3'24.555

I'm gonna have to return to the Tuned to try and find a 1/10th or so before deadline. I've exceeded my expectations for the Normal, so it's time to move on....

Nice times mate. 👍 Looks like you just knocked me down a spot :mad::lol:

Yeah but you've put in half the time i have mate!!!

.......Getting pinballed on the leaderboards......It's the story of my life Nicko, i watched myself in the space of 10 days go from just outside the Top 10, right out to 34th, then back to 16th again.... in that time i've had to knock a full second off my total time to get back to where i was...... it's great competition, but not healthy for my mental state, or my marriage:ill::ouch:

I reckon sub 3'24.500 will be the Top 20 cutoff for Australia.....
 
Into the 35's and the 47's now. Mission completed for me on a personal level.

Total = 3'23.916

Tuned = 1'35.957
Normal = 1'47.959

Back upto 7th UK, joint with Sinibomb who is 6th (albeit, GTDB shows it the otherway around) and that's with EDDSKILL now in the no.1 spot.

I can remember you posting a message of frustration at not reaching the top 20, looks as If all the encouragement from us gtplanet members had paid dividends, nice times;)

Also great times from Backpack (Timppaq:dopey:) You're surely within touching distance to the 22's, keep it up:tup:
 
hey you got my name right!

;)


👍

:D

edit, ..but thanks.. surely will give a try to get those lucky laps, but it won't be easy for sure. :cheers:

Clawing my way up the US and GTP_Boards over here.

I spent some time in the tuned on back to back nights and yielded some nice improvements.

Total - 3:25.624

Tuned - 1:36.625
Normal - 1:48.999

I'm currently 33rd on the US board, my best position to date. I had been hovering in the 50's to 60's for most of the event.

I improved my normal time a few nights ago, by just meeting my goal of being in the 48's.

Some great times from our members, good luck to all competing. 👍

:cheers:

Guys, I prepared a new version of the Indy 'Speed/Gear Map' (Yamauchi GT5 TT Stock car lap) I already posted.
Now you get a mph map as well. Just take into account that I used a numeric conversion to get the mph values so that rounding may influence the last digit.

If you have suggestions they are welcome

I'll put a legenda later on. By the way, as you can imagine, minimum and maximum speed values (for the relative track sections) are represented

Well done Timo, Insaine laps mate 👍 I just had a small go in the Tuned car, I last ran on Sunday so I was expecting it to take a while to get back up to speed, but I shaved 0.065 off in the tuned car in a few laps :) but I was .109 up in T3, So I can see an easy .7, then I will move on to the normal Z again.

1'35.818 | 1'48.050 | 3'23.868
 
New improve to my tuned time to get the 1st position with this car in Spain and 2nd overall: 1'35.530 :)

Edit: Great battle there between prasinar, Timppaq and Learner_driver 👍

What I want to know is, howcome when you don't touch the time-trial for nearly a week, you only move 1-2 places down the pecking order...but, if I don't play it for 24hours I drop more than 1-2 places lol :ouch:
 
WOW, Nice time Learner!!! 👍 👍 :cheers:

got myself a .5 too. But not enough at this point.. :(


Great battle, really enjoying this, now that I learned how to drive the effin' car :D

Well done again!! 👍
 
I suck with the normal car, and I don't know how to improve my time with it :(

Edit: Can Learner_driver be Arnaud Lacombe?... because he is extremely good...

So far above planet earth, where Timo is, the pull of gravity is a lot weaker :D :bowdown: 👍 :cheers:

No, he's this guy: http://www.iracing-france.com/forum/post/9876/#p9876

His (already rather modest) reservations against GT5 don't seem to keep him from driving it in the slightest!
yes.gif
👍

Edit: Can Learner_driver be Arnaud Lacombe?... because he is extremely good...

Yep, quite possibly he is, also known as Carter, I competed against Carter in the ESWC Gran Turismo 4 competition in Paris, 2006, we were both at the same level throughout the competition, we had an epic battle at the semi final race at Deep Forest, but he made a disastrous mistake in the final race probably due to pressure and we both spun out, finishing 3rd and 4th:tup: Hopefully we will meet again so I can extract some revenge, hehe:tup:

Nice times again Timppaq and Learner Driver:tup:
 
Tried again in the Tuned car for a bit, but wasnt able to improve, So I tried the normal Z and got into the 47's :D


1'35.818 | 1'47.973 | 3'23.791


4th in the UK!

:)
 
Nice one Dan, top 20 is getting extremely tight though!

I think by next weekend top 20 will need to be a 3'23.9xx.

Although, I'm not hoping that of course!

Thanks, yeah, it is tight, and it's only gonna get tighter! :scared:

You might wanna change your sig, unless your still using the pad.. :sly:

:cheers:
 
Fixed!

Hopefully we both make it to the finals. The pressure we have hot-lapping at home is nothing compared to what it'd be like there haha!
 
You guys are incredible and you are doing GTP and your countries very very proud, I totally take my hat off to these incredible, unstoppable improvements.

:cheers:

All the best

I didn't play for a couple days and then last night took 1.1 seconds off my total time.

Overall 120 3'27.067
Tuned 129 1'37.323
Stock 142 1'49.744

My goal is to get somewhere near the US Top 20 and pretend like I'm in Europe. And by near I mean like maybe in the 60's, I know it gets harder and harder to go faster. Cheers to all the really fast guys, it's ridiculous to think anyone can go that quickly.
