Possum I'm tring to do it on a tablet by typing in everything and updating everyones fastest lap on a chart daduce made for me, when/ if they beat thier time. Your help would be appreciated but I don't know if it would be any easier or less work. I don't want to make work for anyone.

I'm not sure if any times have been deleted it seems that comments about how to join or start the time trial were posted then removed.
 
Did the new Overtake Challenge with the Jaguar XJ13 '66 today and it's just frustrating.
But luckily, another felt 100 tries later, I got a 52,964 whereby the funny thing is, that if you watch the replay, you see a 52,995 while in the ranking list it says 52,964! :confused:
But WTF... got Gold, got the car and that's it for me with this frustrating event!

OK, I've taken your painstakingly collected times, and added a couple of recent updates, and so here is the current ranking. Thanks, Wauk, for your hard work. I did the easy stuff.

Great job Possum, I just added a bonus to your paycheck that's in the mail. :cheers: :D
 
Thanks, guys

Here is an interim ranking based on relative times in the TTs. Those of us who have completed times in all three TTs are ranked first. Yes, this is a hint to get back on the TT track!

The "Rank Score" gives an indication of average completion speed versus the best results. I made this up, so it's not official and not blessed by the @waukazoo Geezer. But trust me, it's quite a good indicator of relative performance.

Let me know via PM whenever you set a personal best, and I'll endeavor to get your astoundingness published. :eek:

I've tried five or six goes at the Nurberg survival race without success ... usually come unstuck after the Pitt stop, this morning I tried the Peugeot 905B Evo1 Bis LM92 for a good win, the intermidiate tyres would have lasted the race but I had to pit for 10 litres of fuel, I used Praiano's tune , this is a very user friendly car to drive in the wet conditions , and with prize money of $1,100000 I think it will get a bit of use in the next few days.
 
OK, there has been movement in the rankings, most notably at the top.

Here is the latest, with a couple of additional changes. First, there is the addition of a "Speed Ratio", which shows just how close each of us is to the top recorded speed. Or in my case, how distant I am!

I found this useful, in that I was so dang far away from the top at Big Willow, surely there was room to squeeze some time out? Yes, there was!

The other change is that everyone gets listed in all three TTs, whether you've completed them or not. If you haven't completed a TT, then I have arbitrarily assigned you the slowest time PLUS 5 seconds. Why? Just to remind you to put your gloves on, tighten up the harness and get out there. Look for the grey-shaded entries!

Sorry about the double post, but I want people to be able to comment separately on this table. It probably won't have as wide appeal as the longer table above.

Please read my post above, and see if this provides you with better insight.

This table provides an average of the speed ratios (modified by the notional times assigned to uncompleted events).

In a sense, it provides an overall leaderboard for the three TTs.

It's sorted on the average, and each cell is shaded according to its position in the ranking.

Dismantled the PS3 today. Lost a ribbon cable plug spent several hours looking for it without success. Was about to head for the pawn shop when I discovered a foreign object in my shirt pocket. Low & behold it was the missing plug. I finished the reassembly & I have the XMB menu, I'll load the game later.

I'll do the TT's once home and at the wheel.

Lucky you put it in the shirt pocket for safe keeping aye:)
