After my first session (Sunday night )

T1: 16.954
T2: 31.777
Lap 1: 55.368

T1: 11.875
T2: 26.665

T1: 11.907
T2: 26.847

There's at least 1 second (probably 1.5-2.0) still to find but I doubt that I'll get there.

Nice combo CFM, Wet would have been more challenging though.

 

[MisterWeary]

Still trying to perfect 3 laps in a row, this one is getting closer (with my meager skills):

T1: 0'16.876
T2: 0'31.806
Lap 1: 0'55.260
...............
T1: 0'11.941
T2: 0'26.809
...............
T1: 0'11.926
T2: 0'26.870

With about 0.25 improvement overall. My first lap was a scorcher and on the other two I lost about 0.1 - 0.15 if I hit them at my limit...I agree with VTRacing though, Tsukuba Wet would have been VERY interesting

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

didnt save the lap

brb gotta re-do

 

[Small_Fryz]

well done Curtis!

Ive just done a nice race. If only my 3rd lap was as fast as my 2nd. So far no flying laps have come close to my 2nd lap time.

16.898
31.688

11.713
26.368

11.743
26.650

Leaderboard will be done in a few minutes! 👍

 

[shockwaveracing]

slightly quicker overall time but not much of an improvement... can't see myself improving more...

16.926
31.929

12.030
26.771

12.042

New Splits

T1 - 16.968
T2 - 21.807
(55.214)

T1 - 11.802
T2 - 26.757

T1 - 11.782
T2 - 26.754

I'm actually finding my third lap to be much better than my second. I've been under a certain second barrier quite a few times on my third but stuffed up the second.

[Casio]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Just for that...I'm not changing it....

In my version of the game, the Subaru has a warp drive, I don't know about the rest of yours...

 

[jase86]

LoL

I need that version!

[jase86]

well the story for this week... saw this week's combo, urgh.. 3 lapper.. and tsubka (cant spell) I had never done that track (maybe once or twice) before, and that silly understeering car
hahah it took my til about friday to figure out that you could actually use RSS instead of the RS i had been using at the start of the week... so my time went from about the 40 second mark (thats right.. pretty slow) til about hmm.. i cant say... but anyhow it was a major improvement.. but by now i thought i was way out of the competition, Randy taking charge, with Jerome and others battling it out..

Im hoping my time will prove to be competitive enough.. My t-times weren't written down.. and im too lazy to watch the replay... probably something slow.. anyhow.. see you at the results which is around 24hours and ten minutes away judging from my calculations :S

L1 was good, fastest i had ever done i guess.
L2 and L3, lets just say i hate consistency..

Gotta get back to it, me and casio gonna have a battle
But its unfair coz he has warp engines
Good luck guys, very low attendance this week... maybe could be a suprise week and turn out the be the biggest one yet

[fasj6418]

well, i forgot to post some splits...

the last ones are:

T1: 16´876
T2: 31´704
LAP1: 55´066

T1: 11´876
T2: 26´620

T1: 11´726
T2: 26´407

well, too bad i started WRS on friday... i thought: "well, tsukuba is easy, shouldn´t be hard to get a good time", well, indee, in 10 minutes i already got a time only a second slower than my best...


its one of those things, when you start doing things wrong, there´s nothing you can do... these times are using 220..., had some runs at 280, but didn´t liked very much...

then, lst night i find out that i´m 1´4 seconds off the leader, way too much on a track like tsukuba... i hope i was screwing the gears, changing too much or something like that... otherwise, is just a bad finish for me...

one more thing, now for the complains... i hope we can have now a good time without stupid AI... OK, you can pass then, but if you want to compete, i can´t have stupid 17´0s in T1, so, i´m restarting like, 10 times out of 11 to get a descent start (best so far was 16´754)...

more crying... i don´t know how i can´t get three laps togheter... i could easilly be 0´6 faster, but then, i always manage to screw one of the laps... this week is just like last week in one thing... got a good time very early, like in first 20 minutes of first real session, and then, not much improvment...

maybe magic monday today?

i´m really frustrated that i can´t get the next step to that "next level" so for now, i´m satisfied with another 4th or 5th... its been harder than i thought to get my mojo back... if anyone seen it, just let me know, my mojo is lost somewhere...

anyway, i just don´t accept the time i have so far, hopefully i can get 90 minutes or so tonight to change that... enough of crying...

 

[jase86]

ARRRRRGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
enough said

[jase86]

Almost at the second barrier... which second barrier, hmm...??
Randy i know ur probably there already.. i am determined to catch ya
Well another week of intense competition for podiums with div2

20 minutes later....
Reached my target.. now i want more...
I can see at least another 0.2 off my time, from stupid mistakes 👍
But lets see how it goes... seeing and doing are completely different things



~~~~ Jase

 

[OnlyMe]

Had a very busy week this week. Everything put together, I think I only had 75-90 min. for this combo. Therefore my time will be extremely crappy , but I submitted it anyway

 

[Old Geezer]

I'm sure everyone else shares my frustration! Haven't run this much so thought I'd best get in a few more attempts...can get consistant 16.8s/31.7s but then have final laps that suck! Finally put 2 "Sterling" (for ME at least) laps together with a mediocre first lap & "found" 0.3 seconds overall. Time to submit & move on:

T-1 = 17.168
T-2 = 32.111
Lap #1 = 55.500 (Have seen 55.2XX)

T-1 = 11.794
T-2 = 26.599

T-1 = 11.857
T-2 = 26.781

THANX CFM & the Leaderboard people...GREAT Combo...O.G.

 

[Randymcchickenf]

At the second barrier you say...Yup sure am by quite a bit! Cant wait till results, its gonna b close! My best finish yet i hope. (thats 4th or better) lol

 

[Mr P]

I was uploading some replays earlier to gt.de and noticed that my save from earlier in the week in this combo has gone AWOL for some reason .... probably overwritten or not properly saved on the night ??
I have run another slower by .1 overall that will be submitted in its place as I have no time to run anymore tonight, I would never have caught Holl01 or Hotboi anyway with my other save! Well done guys .... great sectors 👍
here's the save I'm submitting ...

Autoset 230 / AI set to -10 / no tcs or asm

L1 - 16.870 / 31.706 = 54.982 (.1 down on my best lap 1 )
L2 - 11.715 / 26.439 ( .2 down on my best fastlap )
L3 - 11.736 / 26.427

my ideal time was .5 faster than this save

It was a nice combo, shame i was sidetracked ... cya's all again soon 👍
will post replay in results thread

Laters
Ron.

 

[KLR142]

Well well well... First and last hour session on this combo is over. Saw a 16.995 right after this run for the first T1, but broke too late for the next turn because of it... Satisfied with an hour's worth of running, and submitting this time:

T1: 17.022
T2: 32.015
Lap 1: 55.463

T1: 11.765
T2: 26.701

T1: 11.951
T2: 26.989

Want to see where I'm at on the leaderboard with these splits... Good luck everyone who's still running!

 

[Androoos]

Well, I haven't run any laps since Thursday and I think it did me well.

I will probably end up submitting this time.

T1: 16.998 (Have seen 16.8 numerous times but keep screwing up later)
T2: 32.141
L1: 55.783

T1: 11.857
T2: 26.782

T1: 11.861
T2: 26.736

There is still more time for me on this because I know I screwed up the last hairpin. But I don't know if I'll be able to better the overall time. These were probably the 3 fastest, most consistent laps I've run so far.

 

[KLR142]

T-1 = 17.168
T-2 = 21.111
Lap #1 = 55.500 (Have seen 55.2XX)

That T2's a 31.111 I take it? Nice runs!

And FWIW, I was running -7 opponents on Hard tires, with me running 280 gearing...

 

[Old Geezer]

Ooops! THANX KLR142! 👍
"Correct" time edited in...O.G.

At the second barrier you say...Yup sure am by quite a bit! Cant wait till results, its gonna b close! My best finish yet i hope. (thats 4th or better) lol

[VTRacing]

Had enough for this week, no improvement after a short session last night.

I'm bound to be last in Div1, and knocked off by various Div2 drivers but that's ok

Not so fast, VTR! I'm sure I'm plenty capable of taking that title this week! It ain't over 'till it's over.

Monday hasn't been so magical for me for the last coupla weeks!

Getting better:

T1: 0'16.869
T2: 0'31.801
Lap 1: 0'55.186
...............
T1: 0'11.830
T2: 0'26.645
...............
T1: 0'11.846
T2: 0'26.719

I know I lost about 0.2 on the last corner of the race but I beat my old lap by almost 0.3. I'm going to try and get that last 0.2-0.3 before submission time but for now I better do something productive with my holidays...maybe I'll do my tax...

 

[jase86]

fat lady just hummed a few chords.. knocked off another 0.2 seconds..
Randy you better get back into your car.. inches away from ya.. i think.

Just watched replay got splits
Lap1
T1: 16.893
T2:31.743

Lap2
T1:11.739
T2: 26.519

Lap3
T1: 11.836
T2: 26.557 (stuffed up)

I think ive hit my limit... Giving the Division1 guys a run for their money
Just had abour 54.9 x 5 and stuffed up every single one of them
So maybe there's a bit more to improve...

[Jump_Ace]

Seen those splits like I dunno 9 times now but when I hit those splits I have really BOMBED the FINAL turn EVERY TIME, stopped racing since Sunday, submitting time. Not liking this 'race' as much as hotlapping, may not get a podium but I don't wanna do this one anymore . But as far as challenge goes, this one gets the 👍 . Was hoping for a faster car tho.
