GTP WTAC Week 50 : Viperidae

[Detroitbb]

1'43.2xx (GTS) and 1'27.7xx (GTS-R)

From now on, any improvements for me will be small and measured in hundredths of a second.

1'50.xxx and 1'31.xxx

1'50.xxx and 1'31.xxx

Don't get too down... you've been away from the track for a while. You're just a bit rusty!

My battle with the GTS came to a end. And I can say that came victorious with a 1'41.9xx time to show for. It was not easy, it was harder than I thought. A lot of differents tuning and racing lines and still could not improve my previews time, I didn't know how to shave those six+ tens that I wanted out of my time but I came with a 'good' setting and a 'perfect' lap to come up with a 1'42.2xx time. But how the hell am I going to shave 3 tens more now!! I said, did get mad and started to drive like a mad man, (obviously haha!) only to fail miserably lap after lap after lap, but somehow in one lap everything clicked and shaved 3 tens on a messy lap!. Wow! I said a loud YES!! it was so rewarding. I'm very happy, it was the time I was shooting for and got it

I'm stuck on 1'42.4xx

There's absolutely no way I'm getting a faster lap than that. Moving on to the race version.

Welcome, gtfan007!

We'd love to have you join us!

As for your problem with the car dealers, try skipping days by entering into a race (or time trial) and then backing right out to the main menu again. You'll have skipped a day. Do it once more and you now have a new group of car dealerships available. It can be a long, slow process... but it works!

I couldn't improve my time with the GTS last night. I'm also having trouble tuning this car. No matter what settings I choose, I always seems to get the same range of times for my laps (low 1'44s or higher 1'43s). I was so frustrated that I didn't even try the GTS-R... I just decided to read a book.*


*Just so pvr knows, it wasn't a chick-book this time (honest)!

Same for me ! I was so pissed off that I decided to update the website instead -up to week 44- and then watch 2 "leverage" and 1 lie to me ! Then I took the Race car for my first session and hit 1'27.904 (L-F Tuning + Camber).

Thanks everyone for the reception.

[Dan360]

I'm stuck on 1'42.4xx

I couldn't even manage to get close enough to your time with the GTS.

I ran another session with both cars last night, and I think I hit my limits with these cars. My settings to control both cars braking issues got in the way of the hills on Infineon though.

Dodge Viper GTS-R Team Oreca Race Car '00 -1'27.503

Dodge Viper GTS '99 - 1'42.975

Combined time: 3'10.478

One down, two crazy weeks to go!

 

[Detroitbb]

I had a wicked headache last night, so there was no way I could have tolerated staring at the PSP's screen for any length of time. I'll have to submit my times achieved two days ago. At least I had two frustration-free days in a row!



Viper GTS: 1'43.262

Viper GTS-R: 1'27.714

combined time: 3'10.976



I'll see everyone navigating The Corkscrew!

[red ice]

Impressive times for everybody.

Sorry guys. I just wasn't able to pull off a clean lap for both cars. No points for me this week. I managed to get a 1'29.xxx and 1'48.xxx but both were clearly off track on 2 corners. I have a clean 1'30.xxx and 1'51.xxx but was overwritten already.
I hope I do better next week.

 

[vaughan]

What a bad luck.. However, I guess not content with your result disappointed you more. Good luck for us all in the following week~

 

[Detroitbb]

MVR08 is making his charge up the overall ranks with an impressive 1st place finish in this challenging challenge! He was about 1 and a half seconds faster than 2nd place pvr77 (whose time was also impressive). Dan360 snatched 3rd place this week finishing about half a second behind pvr77. Congratulations to you all!

The top two places in the overall standings remained the same, but pvr77 actually gain an additional point over Dan360. With 22 and 20 points, they are poised to make the challenges exciting for the next few weeks! As I mentioned before, MVR08 has jumped from fifth place to third overall. His 15 points puts him within striking distance of the top two leaders.
