After my first session, which won't be too far off from my best. I think I peaked already....but I will dutifully devote many many precious hours trying to do better.

27.037
46.969

Again last week, as most weeks, I came in almost exactly in the middle of everyone that particapated. If 50 drive, I will always be #24 -#26

 

[Jump_Ace]

Yes!! Ive been waiting for a hotlap on route 5 The chase is on jump_ace, T13R, KLR142, Jase ect, iv got 6 free days this week, just a little warning lol

Sounds like I'll be chasing u all week with that kind of free time eh? I unfortunately have to work 8-5, m-f but I'll see what I can do.

[MinorShunt]

hmmmm. Looks like the bar has been set! (most likely rather high.) Good to see kart, tannis, and iceman competing this week. 👍

Hope I can catch a little draft off u guys. I'll be giving this a go shortly. Looks fun.



EDIT: results of first run......

T1: 26.392
T2: 45.679

It's a start.

 

[GTrackd02]

well I have some splits for Div3...lol
t1 26.913
t2 47.389...yuck!

Nice track, SSR5 is always nice to give it a drive.

Well, if this can help someone, i have here a lap a did in the F1 car at GT mode on SSR5 some days ago, maybe this be useful to someone who´s looking for some racing lines or braking points. If CFM doesn´t mind, im posting the lap´s max file here, 0'55.7xx laptime. 👍

Here is the max file, its ntsc system.

 

[hOt6o4bOi]

lol, F1 wont help for lines... or braking

hahaha, it will be a nice replay tho im sure

Probably braking points are not so helpful talking about F1, but for lines or cornering it is.

 

[Small_Fryz]

If i was a smart cookie I would also download a BC round 3 replay 💡 Veil had a NTSC one about equal to 1st place so both PAL and NTSC will have a similar lap.

Veilsidebr 1'00.2 NTSC

P@ss 1'00.1 PAL

Both are .max 👍

 

[veilsidebr]

Yes, i think this lap is more helpful than the F1 one, but even tho the F1 was a cool lap. Both laps were done in about 30 min each one.

 

[KLR142]

Yes!! Ive been waiting for a hotlap on route 5 The chase is on jump_ace, T13R, KLR142, Jase ect, iv got 6 free days this week, just a little warning lol

I don't like that warning at all... You'll have no problems beating my time... Don't worry!

funny that this MR monster is slower than i thought and understears!!!
now that´s a new one... but a great car besides that...

running with gear at 320 for the first 20 laps...

I hear you there! Kind of frustrating in my opinion...(the understeer anyway, the lack of what should feel like 650 turbocharged horses is ok, I guess this car just has rear tires that are a little too wide)

About the gearing, with it at 320, I can be bouncing off the rev limiter if I go through the final turn correctly, but it's just barely, and it allows holding a higher gear through some of the turns, so I think that's what I'll be running as well. These splits though I was running 330 gearing. Then I moved it to 320, but I guess I'm just too tired to concentrate like I should be, and couldn't wing anything together in the next 15-20 minutes. I'll be going to bed early tonight!

Splits: 330 gearing(will be 320 next time)
T1: 26.948
T2: 46.895

I'm hoping for I don't know what at T1, but definitely less than 26.5 I guess, and then for T2, I want to be under 45.5 when I submit. I don't think I'll have enough time(or sleep) to get that 45.5, but we'll see!

Sounds like I'll be chasing u all week with that kind of free time eh? I unfortunately have to work 8-5, m-f but I'll see what I can do.

You guys are lucky... I don't have anywhere near that much time(two jobs, and other stuff to do), and I'll be going to Corvallis friday evening after work to party, then saturday morning, hopefully working on getting a "new" car(test driving, paper signing, and hopefully getting to the bank and getting the cash), and then heading off to work back up in Portland. And working on sunday and monday as well(although not long shifts), and I need to go shopping and get a haircut, and HOPEFULLY somewhere in there, go work out more than once this week. I haven't worked out in WAAAAAY too long and it's killing me slowly, I can feel it!

Blah blah blah, I'll see what I can do

 

[shockwaveracing]

reached my target already so have had to revaluate want to knock another second or more off of my current time... still can't get my head around T1...

T1: 27.054 (26.5xx)

[SHigSpeed]

You didn't just say NSX and Grand Valley in the same sentence, did you?
Please tell me this week does not even COMPARE to that one!

I hated that race with a passion.

And that's coming from somebody whose favorite track in GT3 was Grand Valley.

If this week is like that one, you won't be seeing me around for a while...
...well, at least not until next week

The Wizard.

Yo Wiz,

You were so devastated with the GV race that you didn't even submit a time! What was there to hate?

I did do a bit of running (nothing clean yet) on the DS2 last night with nothing really to report. Seems tricky... I want my wheel time!

Hopefully tonight,

-Scott

 

[veilsidebr]

after some 40 mins:

26.1 - best 26.0
45.1 - best 44.9

Jetboy

I would be very interested to see how you run compared to these D1 guys 👍

Leaderboard updated.

 

[T13R]

I hope to get a few practice runs tonight, but first I need to get the car. I'm gonna ask again, can anyone please confirm that I need to run the Pan Euro Championship to win the car? I would greatly appreciate it if someone could just say 'yes' or 'no', unless you would like me to have even less time to get my runs in?

My version of the game doesn't show European championship for some reason. That's why I'm asking if its the same as the Pan Euro championship, because that's the first championship on the available list from the European Hall.

Got to be ...
