GT4 WRS Week 4: "Mid-engine Multi-Lap Mayhem"

[angelx]

but if he taps me it's on him not me.

man thats BS.

i wouldn't worry about them tapping you man, cause they don't have the speed to do so. only thing i worry about is rear ending the third place car, but with small fryz's suggestion it seems like i won't even have to worry about that. thanks small_fryz, good tip. 👍

 

[Teledriel]

I don't understand the logic on this one ... we're meant to be racing on hard tires, yes?

Maybe I don't understand the relationship between S types.

S1 = Sports Hard
S2 = Sports Medium
S3 = Sports Soft

 

[Small_Fryz]

Finally something fast! Lots to improve but its a good start me thinks.

31.015 / 24.325 / 24.391
1'00.722 / 54.126 / 54.138

lap 2 was .19 slower than lap 3, so thats nice and consistent.

Lots left on the track but getting 3 fastest laps together in a ROW!! is no easy stuff.

 

[CalibreDan]

31.402 - 25.659 - 25.034
1'02.250 - 56.240 - 56.001

Only done 5 laps so far, lots of time to come off yet

another tip, enter the race with S3 tires and change them to S1 in quick tune (where you change the wieght) this way the AI has S3 tires and the 3rd place car can thus go through the 1st turn quicker!.

Thanks for the tip Small_Fryz 👍, just need to get Turn1 right and you can be in front by Turn 3. mmm now I just have to get the run thru there a bit more consistant ,
as well as the rest of the lap that is.
Liking the challenge of stringing 3 clean fast laps together, Great Combo CFM 👍

Very good tip,that should take care problems at turn1! 👍

Lap 1

Lap 2
T1 0:24.223
T2 0:54.434

Lap 3
T1 0:24.409

nice times so far GTmaniac 👍

 

[holl01]

I had a 2 hour session and heres my progress so far

lap 1
T1 30.833
T2 xx.xxx (missed it)

lap 2
T1 24.064
T2 53.813

lap 3
T1 24.098
T2 53.912

I went in time trial mode first before i did the race mode and here was my best T times after an hours practice

T1 23.812
T2 53.645

Obviously i'm not gonna do those sort of times in arcade race cause i'll probably crash no doubt.

 

[Small_Fryz]

nice times holl01, any chance on your T2 for lap 1?

 

[Ricolamb]

Vehicle weight may not be verifiable at this time, but you can guarantee there's some of us saving replays up for the occasion when a GT3gEdit-like programme is available and these things MAY be checked...

I heard it's very hard we'll have one this time

Rico

 

[Touring Mars]

Quick few laps before breakfast...

31.6 - 25.7 - 25.4
62.x - 56.5 - 56.8

loads of mileage in this one I reckon 👍

Good tip about getting that car out of the way for turn 1... I hit it on both attempts this morning

 

[Lotrzyna]

OK this is what I have after first 1h session - first clean race :

LAP1 LAP2 Lap3
31.807 25.666 25.331
1.03.314 56.693 56.833

AFAICS there is alot space to improve but it might be a probem at this week because there are holidays in POLAND at 01 and 03.05 and I will have to leave home at saturday or sunday so I wlll have to submit my time in next 60h :/ - not alot time to improve :/
CFM - great combo I want to withdraw my words about track - its nice to run especially with that car that setup and that GRAPHICS

 

[Famine]

I heard it's very hard we'll have one this time

Rico

In all fairness, the GT3 one wasn't exactly a simple affair...

There WILL be one. We have enough progamming-savvy people in the GT community who are interested in verification/hybrids. As long as the format is as easy to use as mk's format was, I'll be a happy bunny.

 

[Small_Fryz]

why dont you help famine?

 

[ROB 256R]

Thanks for the tyre tip small fryz 👍 It really helps on that first corner, although the third car is still usually in the way. Do we have to have the AI set on -10 or can we adjust it?

T1 - 0'31.072
T2 - 1'01.154

T1 - 0'24.529
T2 - 0'54.491

T1 - 0'24.559
T2 - 0'54.628

Poor Luxy's going to have his work cut out this week putting all these splits into the leaderbord, unless he just uses the T2's or something?

 

[Speedy Samurai]

Alright. I only had an hour and a half to work on this for this week. I am going away in the morning for 6 days or so. Getting married and having a honeymoon is sure interfering with my racing life. Dang.

Lap 1
30.985
101.304

Lap 2
24.266
54.457

Lap 3
24.669
55.113

Hope this leaves me somewhere decent in the standings. Good luck to everyone and I'll be back next week!

 

[Teledriel]

Well maybe I will earn enough credits to get the car... still no max drive

 

[VEXD]

If you don't want to waste the credits, buy the car but don't get into it. The car will then appear in Arcade Mode for the duration of your play until you reset the console.

Didn't know you could do that... 👍 👍

Thats cos u cant 👎

Glad to hear the weights been dropped, maybe i will compete now!
I didnt know that yesterday when i went home to try it, so i had some crap T's today, but now it all makes sense!!

Nice race Crucified Fermented Mollusc!


No offence Famine, but i tried it and it dont wanna.

Hey speedy_samurai - gokekkon omedetô gozaimasu :-) :-)

 

[BenW]

I second the idea of going into TT mode to fine tune your braking points and corner exits. Run your hotlaps there and then go to the race.
Not an easy combo IMO. i think my my fastest t1 is around 25.050 or something like that.

And T2 can eat your lunch if you get into the first tunnel with the car unbalanced. hello spin to the outside.

 

[Drew22]

Just keep experimenting with the field they give you. The first 3 or 4 set of cars they gave me there was always one or two that are in the worst place possible to pass, in turn 1 and 2. Finally on my 4th. or 5th. try I got a field that I could pass at the best places. But once you leave the race you lose that group, just keep a note of that field and when you start making your final runs, keep restarting till you get that perfect field back, it makes a lot of difference. Thanks Small_Fryz , I'll try your tire deal and see how it fits in.

 

[Small_Fryz]

its almost like the AI is too slow

BTW seen 30.8xx T1 on 1st lap's
24.1xx T1 on flying laps
53.9xx T2 on flying laps

Just have to put it together and get a nice field

 

[circa86]

yeah it is possible to pass every car within the first two turns with the right cars.

the best I could do on T1 for the first lap was in the 30's.

 

[holl01]

Made some progress yet on the same token fell away in T1

T1 30.859
T2 1'00.533

T1 24.258
T2 53.880

T1 24.191
T2 53.777

Theres still a second to be made up in total definitely. from dan.

 

[nicholp]

Feel a bit intimidated posting my poor Div3 times after Holl01's but here they are

T1: 32.073 - - - 25.976 - - - 26.502
T2: 1'04.189 - - 57.851 - - - 59.547

This from the first clean race I managed after taking the advice of running in time trial to get used to the car on the track.

Hope to make up somemore time soon.

Paul

No room for error here... Im all over the shop atm, starting to get used to the wheel now...

 

[Tyre King]

On the subject of the 'two wheels' rule, does it have to be front and back wheels have to be on the track, or can it be 'rear wheels' only?

sorry about the size but accidentally posted instead of previewing!

BTW both rear's are on the track/rumble!👍

Holy crap how do you get into a mess like that???

As long as no more than 2 tires were off at one time, it's still legal:tup:

Was playing around, seeing if it was possible to drift around that first corner, and keep speed above 110mph! Just having fun really. lol

Oh and thanks for the edit! What size is best for pics?
👍
