Wow , new P1...epic lap.

Again, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all who have participated thus far, great to see such an awesome turn out with such a crop of great drivers involved. Epic battle at the top of the board....just how fast can you guys go?

 

[Ramalhinho91]

Ok now down to 1'13.045 after 25 consecutive laps faster than my previous PB. Good stint today

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Finally, some improvement myself.

1'13.364

I watched @mcsqueegy vid earlier so thought I'd post mine up as well.
Apologies for the phone quality, no PVR

Mine's in Imperial(mph) and with Automatic gear changes.

 

[True-blue-8]

is there a way I can upload the save file?

Apologies i'm appaling with computers and IT stuff
If I send the file to XMB, load it onto a USB then download it here (if not youtube) that should work?

That's right, exactly how you do it 👍

Thanks mate

Here it is, sorry for the bad quality...

@Giorgio_57 , I think you might be on C2 (comfort medium) instead of C3 (comfort soft).

He is on comfort soft, it's just the translation to Italian

Thanks, I was wondering how he was sub 13s on C2!!

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Looks like Comfort Medium to me, thought that's what CM stood for.

Thanks for all the vids guys, much appreciated. 👍 All videos are welcome, no matter what controller you use or how slow you may think you might be, there are things to be learned from all vids and all skill levels. 👍

 

[numbnuts70]

Soft = morbido

EDIT:

Medium = medio

Go figure?!?

 

[RyanRacer]

Best I could do was a 1:13.187. Perhaps I could have done better if I actually ever drove cars on CS!

 

[Giorgio_57]

both words medium and soft start with the letter M in Italian, therefore in the game CM stands for comfort soft and CMe stands for comfort medium.

 

[True-blue-8]

1.13.308

I know a 12 is possible but my mind just went and now I just can't even match that

Will spend half hour on it tomorrow hopefully when work is out of the way and put that lap in 👍

Ah, gotcha. 👍

So since no one has said out loud, "I changed the oil," I would assume that everyone is using stock oil. But some of these times say otherwise. So if anyone has changed the oil, please say so, so that CargoRatt can create a separate leaderboard. It would certainly help my self-esteem if they did!

Everyone is supposed to be using stock oil, no oil change as stated in the OP. If you are suggesting that the top times are being abtained because they changed their oil, then I sure hope you have proof of that. Like I said in the OP, those that choose to bend/break the rules are only hurting themselves and the spirit of competition here. I myself have no problem with anyone's time here and trust that everyone is following the rules. Again, if you have proof that oil is being changed by anyone, please provide it.

Tomorrow I will change the oil and do some laps to see how much difference it makes

Improved to 1:13.120.

hi too you all , i thought that this would give an idea about how far far far behind you fast guys i am , but too my surprice it wasnt that far (1 sec ) its far in the racing world i know , but on my clock it isnt that far hehe , managed on my first try on lap 11 too go around the track in 1,13.845 (automatic gear) , so the rope i need too hang on too the top doesnt have too be that long funny little car , great idea you got cargorat

 

[mcsqueegy]

1'12.708 👍

Was 0.016 down at T1 but made up .101 in the second half, pushing track limits in the process

 

[ParkerMO125]

Just an fyi for those using this for GT Academy prep who are using the automatic gear settings. You might want to start using manual.

I can't remember for 100%, but I'm 99.9% sure that you have to use manual should you make it to Nationals (for the NA GT Academy anyways)

 

[mcsqueegy]

I like videos, so made you guys another one



Will need to set some new PB's if I want to improve on this lap though... mid .6 I can see as the limit (for me, at least)

My try this at some point today, was also wondering why the handbrake is banned as it's legal in the actual GTA TT?

Because....my rules. Lets not start that debate again, please. Look forward to seeing your lap times here. 👍
