Oh, and btw again LUXY!!! I DONT USE A DS2!!! CHECK MY SIG!!!

Mate i've been driving with NO controller listed for weeks, for some reason his spread-sheet won't update to show that i use the DFP!

Never mind, not the end of the world!

meh,
I reckon this car would be alright on a less windy track because then you could really extract all the power it has to offer. Oh well.
 
nice combo, i had practice on this track yesterday when i was driving f1 cars around it in 2 player battle with my cousin, i really like the track, lots of corners master

i'll have a go soon
 
Well well, the VW R32 actually handles this course pretty well. Now I just need to nail those double hairpins... :nervous:

A 9sec improvement after 10 laps. Had a 41.856/1'08.570/1'43.109 but I clipped one of the spectators on the 2nd hairpin. :dunce:

T1: 42.057
T2: 1'08.708
T3: 1'43.588
 
t1: 41.988 :)
t2: 1'08:721 :indiff:
t3: 1'43:437 :drool:
But the 1st hairpin i slowed down because i was going in the wall :ouch: and I couldn't beat them
 
WOOHOO - love this track, what a blast (i say this now) the jump in the short straight is going to be fun (how far can i jump this thing) :crazy: At least its not reverse, the hairpin at the end of the straight would of been a bear going that direction.

HHMM a VW - driver needed, heh just had to say it. :sly:
 
I'll try this one, seems fun. And bluerabbit both hurrcane jeane and frances' eye came right over my town! try living through that-just kiddin :) anyways good luck everyone!
 
wow i love this track i always race here with my brother and i love the golf scince i have 1 myself but it is not an r32 =( anyways im sure i will do better than last week
 
DRIVEN -USA-

Dont forget DRIVEN, the rules state, that two wheels must be touching the track at all times.

Very important that.


Now then, lets go have a go at this race......

Nice choice Cryogenically Frozen Mutant 👍

I'll see you lot tomorrow with some T's i hope.

:irked:👍

I hope that you are not serious with that and we can make jumps ... (hmm I didnt run it yet cos im at work and i dont know if that car has enough power to jump in some places but probably it has)

The rules don't actually mention anything about number of wheels on track this week :P

Oh, and if we're being really pedantic then we could say that since the rules usually say "Two tyres on track at all times" any lap with > 2 tyres on the track is just as invalid as no tyres on the track :P
 
Love the choice of track! Have not yet driven the R32.. will give it a go shortly.
 
i just got my r32 and did 5 laps. i got 1:44:132 but crashed right after that hahaha. i can still get it a lot better. The esses in the top of the hill are really fun in this car i think the key of fast times is in that part and i find it the hardest. i am also having a hard time in the last hairpins but it is only about practice.
 
had a quick go b4 bed and managed
T1 40.880
T2 1'06.858
T3 1'40.964

will try some more next week, i'm busy till then

Calm down :P

I heard you the first time, and you'll notice the leaderboard for last week doesn't have you listed as a DS2 driver anymore, it has your controller listed as unknown ("?").

Changing your controller is more complicated than just re-typing it, it involves modifiying the programming for the leaderboard, and to be honest, I'm not that inclined to include every controller/wheel/joystick ever made. There are (or were) a few people who played with a DF (the one before the DFP), or a Momo, etc. and I've always just listed them as an unknown as well.

For future reference, it's not the most polite to yell (bold, red, all-caps) at someone who is providing you with a free service, which you expect to continue.

...

@ballstothewall: I dunno why I haven't got you listed as using a DFP. I see now that it's in your sig. I'll change that for the new week.

Right off to get some laps in now then...
 
right, down to track talk!

could one of you lovely chaps please find and display a map of this track so i can point out where i'm struggling *yawn- i know already!*. its the bottom of the hill where you head down in 5th and theres a little tweak right before the rather tight hairpin. if i break on that corner i just skid round and end up facing the way from which i've come!!!

help me out here pleeeeeaaassssseeeee

what i do is break to 4th before the tweak and accelerate to get the car out(don't brake while cornering here). once the tweak is over i break hard and continue braking while turning smoothly to the left and then accelerate again in the apex.

im sure there is a faster way to do it but thisone is safer and still fast. maybe this is a little bit easier for me because i use a dfp maybe it is the same with a ds2 maybe not.
 
0'42.111 / 1'08.535 / 1'44.669

Best so far.
 
Only 4.5 hours before I can start racing this one! Not that I am bored at work or anything like that, NEVER.....

no, my last lap i posted was not clean. however now i got my t3 to 1'43.584 my t1 and t2's were not that fast actually but i do not remember the time. also my t4 was slower than other laps. i think i can get 1 or 2 seconds faster but it will be hard i need to practice more
 
@ santia. cheers. will give that a shot. just to find some way round is a bonus!

smaug terrible

btw. only done a few laps, but already 4/5 secs off the pace. feel this corner is the main problem area, otherwise i wouldnt be so bothered about it.
