GT4 WRS Week 5: "Big Apple with a side of rice"

[Teledriel]

I was gone all weekend. I haven't put in a lap since Thursday and I'm HOPING I get a chance to drive tonight. I suspect I may be waving goodbye to you while you watch me in YOUR rear view mirror!

Nope, your T's are still better than mine and all ready submitted.

 

[Kolyana]

lol...specifically Kolyana and large fryz

I know I can do much better but I can't put it together

Hate to worry you buddy, but I suspect that there are at least half a dozen D3ers who don't post their T-times and all of them are quicker than me

 

[Small_Fryz]

27.002
1'02.245

improved by .1

I dont know if i can get more out of it my T3 was really nice.

Gonna have to see, but id like to get another .1 out of it

 

[bleurabbit7]

Man, I couldn't get the car to do what I wanted it to do. Especially in the last half of the course.


T1 0.28.430
T2 1.07.347

 

[Kolyana]

Don't be disheartened Bleu ... there are some amazingly fast guys around here and the trick is to download their replays and learn from them.

****, I thought I was gonna be fast this week

Hey Kenny. Heads up bud. You've been posting great times so far! I know I've been following you this week, and we have been running neck and neck. This is a tough, tough event.

Here's what helped me knock off some time tonight. I concentrated on carrying speed thru corners by selecting highest gear possible, (mostly 3rd in T2 section) then "easing" on the throttle once the car is set in the corner. You won't be carrying as many revs, but more speed and less push. 👍 👍

T1- 27.129
T2- 1'02.558

Time submitted. Car's trashed and so am I!

Good luck All! Great fun for my first event.

Thanks Minor for the tip.

My best lap has a T2 of 1'02.860 but I was .15 faster at the line - so I'm assuming you are way ahead of me with that T2! lol

Kenny,

Competition's fierce here huh? Do you believe a T2-1'01.4xx from hot? I can't even imagine getting within .6 or .7 just on the split! Never mind a full lap. I feel like Minardi.

[hOt6o4bOi]

i wonder wut im doing differently then you guys, you guys are jumping the curb right~?

because if you arent, you could be losing half a second~?

Yeah no kidding. I'm used to killing everybody at home. When I think I'm hot **** all I need to do is log in here....

I'm gonna submit now since I have school tomorrow. I am completely unhappy with my time, but on the good side I won't need to verify my time

Even with my crappy driving I just may pull of Div 2 lead overall if I just barely edge out vexd, and angelx

I'm jumping them as best as I can

 

[Small_Fryz]

well the late charge from Dion hasnt ended yet.

26.955
1'02.096

shaved .13 off

Still a bit more left, but not sure if i can get it.

hOt

4 yoko's in the air! greasy side down.

i think that you just know how to carry speed thru corners and keep the car in balance for the next. To a science!

[TheWizard]

I finally found some time to run this race...

Am I glad the semeter is over!

Tomorrow I am flying back home to Italy 👍

Here are my splits:

T1: 0'27.152
T2: 1'03.017

I might give it another 10-15 laps, to see if I can break into the 1'02.xxx braket.
Else, I will submit my current time.

Looking forward to the 'Ring

The Wizard.

 

[Steve57]

My time submitted for this Apples and Rice combo, I must say i never particularly liked this track on Prolouge, but this week I had a lot of fun with it trying to chase down (Div3) Nat and OG, couldnt quite get there guys . As usual hOt and holl 👍
Good luck all

Steve

 

[the real 6c]

i wanted to run some more...but when i got close i figure 100 laps was a good stopping point. 294 miles is enough for me.
I had a 1.02.5 like 4 laps before i cut it off. would have like to make that one stick.

Yeah, some good competition this week. I'm not sure how many guys don't discuss their times and just submit, but with OG breathing down my neck - and still potentially beating me to the finish line - it has been quite a thrill.

Shame Large_Fryz had to appear out of nowhere and go streaking past right at the last second

 

[Blackbird.]

100laps? That's commitment my kind sir. 👍

 

[Teledriel]

Think LF was out most this week still on business travel too until this past weekened.

 

[Small_Fryz]

ive done about 300 - 400 laps or about 1200km

But it wasnt until the last 300 that i actually made some progress

 

[Large_Fryz]

'been quiet this week, Large.

Yes sorry about that.
Been busy.

 

[SHigSpeed]

Okay, I give... I had a final time .3 faster but I had a nearly imperceptible brush with the wall that wouldn't have taken the wax off of the rearview mirror... :^(

T1 27.101
T2 1:03.156 BLEH!!

Time Submitted...

36.055 T2? Um what?

 

[3rdgenracerX]

After 100 miles,
T1: 27.6xx's
T2: 1'03.2xx's "much more room to improove once I get my setup better"

 

[SHigSpeed]

36.055 T2? Um what?

Damn that was quick! I realized right away that I had F'dU and by the time I had edited you'd busted me! :^)

MMM yes i had a suspicion Chunky Chips was going to be his fast self. Ohh well, sits here and eats more dust.

[MR8]

1,200 KM!? 100miles!? 100 laps!? I'm just getting underway here through 9 laps and I can already feel my eyes sagging and head spinning. School sucks.

Best time so far:

T1: 27.538
T2: 1'03.631

Improved my total by 0.5secs with some random, thoughtless, impulsive settings.
