Hey dudes, i see my self as a pretty fast driver (specially at la sarthe and suzuka) but im having problems get my laptimes under 3:14 at la sarthe without cheating or cutting at all. So i wanted to hear if there is any fast drivers out there that maybe could share a video with me of a fast lap time :)

I've tried searching on youtube a lot but i really cant find any fast laps.. :/

So if there is anybody out there that could do some fast laps and link me a video i would really appreciate it :)
 
I have no vids but from what i can see is that its all about bieng smooth, and take the last section as close to the apexes as possible.
 
LMP1 and Group C cars :D
But i normally use the Pug 908 or my sauber :)

My lap times are normally very constant both in quali and race so no problem there. But the fastest i can get is around 3.14.

Think i've been a little under that in laps with good slips on mulsanne but cant do it without.

I know all the lines at la sarthe (Loved the track since i was a little guy) and i know how to hit the apex perfectly at the most corners ;)
 
As you may guess from my username, I love Le Mans :lol:. But I do kinda suck in LMP's, I'm more of a GT person.

Haha, nice name. La sarthe is just like a dream in any car ;)
But i really cant describe feeling crusing down the mulsanne at night in heavy rain in a 908 cockpit view :D
 
Might have to go to bed now. But if there is anybody out there that has a video of a fast lap please post or so cause i really want to go faster :D
Not satisfied untill im nr 1 on la sarthe :D
 
I'm not even convinced a 3:14-3:15 is possible in anything other than the F2007 or F10. That would be five seconds under the all-time real world record.
 
Trust me it is.. ;)
I can put up a video of a lap or two later today but it will be filmed with my phone so the quality might not be the best
 
Love the track and the race (except that it always rains). Am I fast around it? Not really :/

But I feel I know it pretty well after doing quite a few online enduros there. Especially the rainy ones!
 
Haha nice driving tho. But yes im talking about the real version (with chicanes). But its just an amazing piece of track :D

Cant understand why people are hating the rain :D Its just so fantastic in rain during night :D Brings the game to a whole new level ;)
 
under 3:14 at la sarthe without cheating or cutting at all.

Funny how I can't even remember what my fastest lap time is without cutting. Used to be my favorite track, before La Festa Cavallino. :(
 
Like one of the posts said earlier keep it snooth and go as fast as possible. Asuming you have no aids on don't spin out as well.

Haha, no i dont spin out :D All aids are off except TC and ABS. Both are at 1. Dont think you will gain any time by switching TC off as the acceleration will get much hard and the tires will get way more destroyed or what to say ;)

Thats pretty quick, good job. I wouldnt mind checkin out your video. Please post it. Ill run a few later on.
 
Here's my video. Sorry for the silly quality but have nothing else than my mobile phone to record it with. These laps were driven (by me) around 2 months ago but my laptimes are still similar.

1. lap: 3.15.934
2. lap: 3.14.516
Second lap starts at 3.25.

Dont know why it wont upload the video but anyway.. Here's the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0-Y31o5-Fo

If anybody knows how to make it upload here on GTP fell free to do it ^^
 
Did it :D Hell yea ;) But there's the video. Feel free to give any feedback. And once again, sorry for the silly quality

 
Thanks for posting the video. Not bad for your phone, dont trip.
Nice run, I'll give it a shot and let you know if i come close.
 
I might have something for ya. I ran about 7 laps, i came up with a 3:15.509. Tried it in the Toyota GT-one / ABS-1 no cutting

Try again later, and then with other rides
 
Add me if you want, i like lmp races too.. but not finding dedicated drivers to do it and since we get in next update a cockpit wiew il probably drive it more often..
 
Can you be more specific on what kind of lap exactly?

Online/offline?
Stock or fully tuned?
Tire compund?
Tire wear/fuel?
Grip reduction?
 
I wont be able to use my PS3 untill sunday (forgot it at moms house) but if you could add me and some day show me some corners at la sarthe id really apreciate it ;)
