Any time I wonder how Dan does it, I just remember he did come fourth in the World Championships :sly: Nice work Dan 👍
 
34.342
1'15.743


ds2, best lap i have accomplished ever in GT, what a time to do it on flat-outs final race:)

Nice there!👍 I figure you would beat your time at least by 1 second using DS2... that's a huge advantage over DFP :scared:
 
I'm about one second slower with DFP and another second slower when in 900 degree mode. (compared to my time with DS2 not Dan's :-)
 
Holy mother of god, great one Dan 👍
Last I knew, your S2 was your best ever.

And OH MY GOD was it awesome.
Can't wait to see the replay of this 👍
 
This car really hates the driving aids.

35.530
1'19.274

No aids, DS2, Div2
I messed up a little on the hard downhill right hander before T2, but its still my best lap.
 
Fresh off the back of a name change (βen to ßen), I say that I regretfully may have little time for this combo this week, as great as it is.
I endeavour to put as much as possible in though.
 
1st session to get the feel of this .. 34.830 / 1'17.245 in best save ... It will be pretty hard to hit a 1'16 T2 let alone a 1'15 :eek:
seen 34.6 and 1'17.1 :(

Awesome splits Dan 👍
 
A first, possibly only session for me, yields the following:-

T1 34.951
T2 1'17.870

Last sector isn't pretty after a wiggle just after T2, but it stayed clean and submissible, which is the important bit! :P

"Taking a French leave" - interesting title, does that mean we all get 8 weeks vacation or whatever you French folks are up to nowadays?!!!! :lol:
 
t1: 36.564
t2: 1'20.203

I'm having some trouble keeping the line, what with this squirrily rear-end. Tons of fun, though!
 
Fab-o Combo 'Cyr-o' me-o likey-o mucho. Spent about 15 min today just to see what all the fuss is about and its a great car on a challenging track, so far I've manged a 1:17.9 with prolly another second or so if I hit those double rights and double lefts well b4 T2 :ouch: lol. This car I think is not about braking but throttle control and countersteering. The car is nice to drift when braking and turning it just takes practice to perfect it and "Be The Ball...."

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't have a chance to play the other night, some other stuff came up. But man, is this awesome or what?!

Down to a low 1'18 after 20-30 minutes, will post up some splits after I go faster... 👍

Edit: Nevermind, my lack of sleep lately has caught up with me. This is all for now:

35.435
1'18.442
 
Gosh, my GT4 disc(s) gave up on me, just now. The old one, which didn't work for a while, then did, then didn't again, doesn't even get past the main screen, and gets stuck when you enter "Arcade Mode". The other one gets cleanly into El Capitan, but once you exit the current lap (re-start, whatever), you get - a new DRE. So no splits so far, but I'm the only D3 so far, too...

Hope to get it fixed ASAP, but I haven't got too many hopes...

The funny thing about the expression "To take a french leave" is that the french equivalent is "filer à l'anglaise", which means literally "To take an english leave". :lol:

On a side note, I only have 5 weeks vacation each year but never have time to take them all. So I'm actually having 3 or 4 weeks only and I'm happy with that. As you probably already noticed, I just can't stay idle.

Hell freaking yea! I was thinking the same thing last night! We might need to take it a step down on the tires though even, because we'll have less power and will need to keep it challenging... :) Normal tires anyone? :sly:
 
/\ ya maybe we should choose super softs, I know Curtis hates those! j/k....it needs normal tires 4 sure

Jerome
 
Yes there is, when the replay starts it shows the power and tyre compound, e.g
500BHP RS/RS
This equates to 500 BHP and Racing Soft tyres on both front and back. Sometimes normal tyres show as RD/RD.
You will also notice that replays show no weight, so the weight is always -10% (or minimum in GT Mode) to prevent cheating.
Hope that helps :)
 
First WRS attempt after 35 min T1: 35.472 T2: 1.18.161
Dan's T2 is a Killer.....:nervous:
I'll be happy with atleast -.8sec off on splits.

Also it's my first time in this car and Normal tires are a handful with this car.lol

And they also don't show any upgrades made in GT Mode, therefore all races (at least under Cyril's reign) were "all non-power upgrades allowed" (including Nitro). And any top-speed, too.

Ahh, Nitro was never allowed normally. You can tell it is on a car by the speed increase, and I think it shows on the display too. I think I may be wrong though?

Come on MSN too, unless you are too busy mate.

Also, Sonzilla - Don't ever be disheartened by being seconds behind Dan. Div 1 drivers are nearly always 1.5 or more seconds behind him. He's unstoppable, plus he says that this week he has had his best EVER GT4 lap.

Too busy, sorry... Don't have time for connecting the MSN-PC.

And yeah, nitro shows up as a red bar on the left of the speedo.
 
Wow Cyril, you picked a good one to end on! This is one of the most technical combos I've seen, but so much fun...

Yeah, I'll put up splits soon. I've got some more AP homework to do before I can put some more time in today. I'm in the 1'19s but I know I can get in to the '18s...
