GTP WTAC Week 42 : Mille Miglia


*** I've changed Week 42's cars to two Italian sports cars: a 2002 Enzo Ferrari and a 2002 Pagani Zonda C12S 7.3 - both are going to be fun to drive (or in my case, SLIDE)! If you were wondering, the name Mille Miglia refers to a famous Italian endurance event that literally translates to 1000 Miles. It isn't raced anymore due to tragic crash in 1957 that killed 11 people, including five children. It is still run though in pre-1957 collector cars and billed as a car parade (Mille Miglia Storica). We obviously aren't going to race 1000 miles or anything, but the name, being Italian, seemed fitting. ***




1. Track : Deep Forest (forward)

Unfortunately I won't be able to compete this week, I absolutely must ace a calculus test this week, not to mention I don't have the Zonda yet anyways. After this week, I have March break (or spring break, as Americans call it), so I'll be able to race with you guys then. Cya all next week!

Good luck with your test and I hope all goes well! 👍

My first times drifting around the course. :)

Zonda - 1'20.9xx
Enzo - 1'21.5xx

Both cars feel like the Lotus Elise... just on a bigger scale. Maybe some toe-in will get rid, or at least reduce, the constant four wheel drift.
 
1'22.xxx for both car !

I won't be one of the fastest by the end but I'm having fun -lot of emotions : :scared::D... :scared::eek::crazy::D... :scared::eek::banghead::ouch:... :boggled::D:D:D:D- !

Good luck everyone !

:gtpflag: !
 
really really slow when it comes to MR cars
1'30.xxx were my starting times for both cars

But this is a fun track/car combo especially turns 3 through 11.
:)
Hoping to improve on my times.
and yeah I'm using the Yellow Enzo I got from PS Store!! wohoooo!!

Me too ! SP Model rocks ! I love the Nero Daytona WB colour, the Bianco Avus one and the Rosso Corsa one too 👍 !

No new times, no time to play...
 
managed to improve. 1'26.xxx for the Enzo. I really love that corner 9-10-11!!! That gripping feeling. I don;t know why but this is the best sector in Deep Forest for me. Though I always mess up my Driving Line and I know this is really important to establish a good lap time because it leads to a straight
 
Enzo Ferrari '02 : 1'21.758 so far.

I aim a low 1'21 / high 1'20 but not faster than that !

Good luck all !

EDIT : Enzo Ferrari '02 : 1'21.758 1'21.478.

currently deciding what to do with my broken and wet PSP.

My times so far -might be my submission times too- :

Pagani Zonda C12S 7.3 '02 : 1'20.461
Enzo Ferrari '02 : 1'21.478

I guess you already are under 1'20 with both cars Dan360 :lol: !

Breaking the 1'20 with the Zonda was quite easy, but for some reason the Enzo was hard to get the most potential from it (even with toe-out, which makes it feel more like a Lotus Elise. :scared: In other words, more drifting!!!)

I've been neglecting the challenge the past couple of days because I've been glued to the TV watching the events in Japan. That said, I'm satisfied with my Pagani time, but I feel a bit disappointed with my time for the Ferrari. This event was pretty fun and I wish I could have spent more time running laps!

I wish it too... As I wanted to give it a last shot with TCS 1 just to see the difference... I saw it ! One more day with it and I'd be in the 1'19 with the Zonda !

WTAC Week 42

I'm not just about to give up being a TACer!
After nearly 2 days of dismantling, cleaning, drying,assembling ...all With sheer determination...I successfully resurrected my PSP back to life!!!
WOOOOO!!!! SO happy!! I decided to run both cars again for 5 laps each and somehow I had same times I previously had. Well for this week, all I care about is my PSP being functional again!!
So far it is behaving normally. I seriously hope there won't be any side effects after the PSP being drenched with caffeine.

Course: Deep Forest Raceway / Forward

Vehicle: Enzo Ferrari (SP Model) '02
Time: 1'25.005
Professional
S3 / S3

@ red ice, so glad you could fix your PSP. What a stress!

Here is my entry for this week. I was too busy having a blast on holiday to do any serious laps but I did have a decent session on the plane on the way back home, untill my battery died. These were two slippery buggers, I wish I had more time to tune them a bit but anyway...
