GTP WRS-Online : Special II - Moff's Triple Mix - Sat May 3rd

[deaconblues82]

Also: @deaconblues82 You signed up with a PSN of: deacon_blues082, but we have you as deacon-blues082 (note the dash not the underscore). I've fixed this, but you will need to put it in exactly for the form to pick you up properly in future 👍

Apologies for that. Someday soon I will learn how to write my own name!
On a related-ish note I've had to change my status to reserve as the weather here has decided to mess about with my work schedule.

The Honda seems easiest to control, I'm setting quicker times by about a second over the lotus

 

[Gravitron]

Everyone has voted in the poll thread except:

@GTPGhost

That's OK, just pointing it out. You can leave it until a few hours before the first race if need be.

Also, if any of you on reserve status change to Confirmed or Cancel, please leave a post here in the thread as well as changing it with the "Register Here" button on the first page. 👍


How many would join if I start a practice room ~4hrs from now?

The Honda and Mazda are easier than the Lotus, but the Lotus is fastest for me. I got the same time as Bionic Derp in the Lotus. It is a little twitchy on a few turns, and does not like the rumbles as well as the other 2 cars, especially the chicane near the end of T3. I think I actually started avoiding going over that rumble in the Lotus altogether, as it was a crapshoot as to how it would turn out.

I am going to practice some later, will post the room.

I might. I need to get some practice in.

 

[GTP_Patrick1]

If I am up I will. I have a room open until then . 1472-6399-8665-9410-9671

Closed

 

[Gravitron]

Just missed you. Setting up a room now - 1472-4711-0382-0868-1683

 

[mohitraina91]

Be there in 30.

 

[GTP_Patrick1]

Be there in a few minutes.

As this question has not been answered (in my opinion), is body rigidity improvement allowed? It isn't listed anywhere in the OP.

Counts as tuning. In-game regulation filter won't let you on track.

 

[Mike458]

Weird. When I tested this in a "no tuning lobby" with a car with chassis reinforcement, it allowed me on track.

 

[Zapphoid]

Do we know who will be hosting each room based on the prefered time?
As I will be jumping out of bed and joining it would nice to get the Friend request out-of the way before I go to bed

Unfortunately, we can't police it unless we crack into the replay, because it does let you on-track. 👎
Let's just make a pact to not install it.

I'll be hosting the first timeslot and GTP_PASM will most likely be hosting the later one.

Changed my status to confirmed 👍
Looking forward to some great racing, it's been far too long.

Had some nice practice yesterday. Thanks guys for joining
For me the fastest is the Lotus, but it's quite twitchy.
I really like the Mazda, very stable and fun.
The CR-Z is my least favorite, hate the understeering from the FF drivetrain.

I hope that I won't be too rusty

Moved you to confirmed for 19:00 GMT, Daniel. 👍

I'll open the lounge about 2hrs early so people can practice more. The 3 cars are quite different.

 

[RoeszaGT]

Just voted for the 2100h timeslot because there are some more people in it off my level.

 

[TayTheDay]

I wish I saw this sooner... I have plans tomorrow but if I'm sneaky I might be able to make one of the timeslots. I put myself in reserves for now and should know for sure by tomorrow morning.

Just bought the cars and did a quick 3 laps in each.

Elise: 1:38.711
Roadster: 1:39.505
CRZ: 1:39.987

Hopefully see you guys tomorrow.

[Rikson]

Confirmed registration for the EU race 19.00 GMT

 

[gm matthew]

Decided to sign up for the 21:00 GMT event. I've tested each of the cars for a few laps and here are my initial thoughts:

Elise: fastest of the three, though it likes to slide and is therefore the trickiest to drive.
Roadster: nearly as fast as the Elise, easier to drive, some understeer.
CR-Z: actually very balanced, very easy to drive but considerably slower than the other two (0.8 or so per lap).

[Mike458]

I would like to be moved to the 21:00 GMT time, as I cannot attend the 19:00 time.
