GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 118 : Roma 300GT

[Allibubba99]

I have had several 2 hour sessions trying to improve my time. I need to take a break and come back to it later. With posted splits T1 and T3 are PB's. I have not been able to improve or recreate T1 since I did it. I left 1 tenth out there in T2. I hope it's not lost forever! I need less than that to catch your splits Frank. Good luck in Monaco this weekend, wish I wasn't working!

Woah that really came out of nowhere

Ok you guys need to know that I've been using Chris' tune at every event that needs tuning. Go Team "V"!!

 

[oink83]

My week sorta cleared up from here until the end of the TT (except for the F1 event...) so I'm actually going to put in a proper effort for the TT for once! I'll post some splits after I'v had a few laps.

Edit: Ok got my first splits (literally my first clean lap through, I like to have something to work up from, lol)

24.614
21.733

Edit 2: *Facepalm* Forgot to turn my downforce up, was on the minimum from when I was running it in on Indy for top speed. New splits with downforce corrected, still plenty left to find This is a crazy paced combo.

[Windy_1238]

New splits, came close to the wall, but from my photo I was inches away.

I think I may have tied Frank for closeness!

Nice T1 Mike! Might give it another go tonight.

 

[mike_gt3]

Thx Doodle
Goodluck for your next session!

Getting used to Chris's tune:

24.161
21.412

 

[Windy_1238]

This has got to be one of the best combo's yet. Even at my place on the LB there is less than 1 second between me and the leaders! Love it!!

23.963
21.413

I've gotten a 23.930 in T1 before and a low .3 in T2. I had an amazing T3 this lap, found a whole tenth!

 

[DigitalBaka]

24.199
21.524

May have a tenth or two left but it will be hard to string together. Looks reeeeeeeally close in that nasty kink in T2 but there's plenty of daylight when I slow it down in photo mode.

So far I've used two cars for this TT, ran them both in on track, I always do that stock, that way I get a good feelin' of how the car manages on this track. When the cars are ran in, I start putting tunes on them, when i find one I like (most of the time "V"-team) I go further on from there tweakin' it to my own needs....I know this way takes a lot of time, but I only do the TT's when I am sure I can spend some time at it.

I only wanted to say, that finding those 7hp, can be easily done by yourself on track, and at the same time you get some practise already

I have team 'V's as well as Praianos tune set & they're both great.

You make a very good point about the practice/mileage, but time is a bit of an issue for this one. So I'll run a B-spec while the wife watches her series tonight. From 10pm on, the big TV's all mine...

I know all about that !! Time !! We should ask our employers to introduce the 2 day work week, that would suit me a lot better

This is how I do it, I gently brake before the kink, but stay in 5th gear. the turn on youre steering wheel should be done before you enter the kink, that way you slightly touch the inner curb, but you do not drift out to the outside curb while exciting, and you maintain a higher topspeed wich you will benefit from in the final sector. Don't know if i have explained it clearly enough...

I'll try it out in my next run, thanks!

Proof please

And I'll take that challenge!

Be carefull for the 'fin' on the lowest side of the spoiler, make sure it is not in the wall when the rest of your car is not, cause it will get you red flagged. maybe this picture is giving me the wrong impression, but still... But that is extremly close, and much closer then mine, if it is legal ofcours

In that case it is defenitly you picture that belongs in the 'weekly rewind'... nice splits btw.

 

[DigitalBaka]

I think so! It's a fantastic combo and Chris' setup is great! It's a week where you can worry about the tenths without having the car nagging at the back of your mind. Definitely going to give it more time before the next combo comes. :tup:

 

[Celinis]

Some splits from me too:
T1: 24.326
T2:21.912
