GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 119 : Taking Your Girl for a Scenic Drive

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Bah! I suppose the chase begins anew!

Yea, maybe I won't forget to submit my time this week. I did alot of miles last week all for nothing. Ah, I guess it was good practice, but still.

 

[the_wilco]

First go at this using mj's tune. Not broken in yet.

18.765
32.170

Another fun combo. Hope I get more time on it.

 

[iSidious]

I managed to find the time for an early start this week. Hopefully I can find some more free time during the week.

18.694
32.255

I might have to go back and chase a slower ghost though! This one seems to be haunting me all the way round!

Got mj's tune on now and I quite like it. Need to figure out that whole uphill section between the ring and the hairpin but if I go by my red lap I have another 3+ left to put together.

[Spud_Skills]

Autumn Ring is one of my favourite tracks, good combo! From what I remember, DS3 users should be ok with this one, I just missed out on the win around here back in Week 32.

 

[Litchi]

First 5 laps using Kevin's tune:

18.728
31.990

I don't hope for a Div podium this week, you guys know i'm really bad on tuned combos

 

[millross]

10 laps with a new car and most of Kevin's setup

18.811
32.107

I seem to be getting slower. The only answer is new kit, lots of it.

18.610
32.026

Thanks. I had one before and it had some issues, took almost 2 weeks to get a new one back to me

It's weird though. It calibrates way different than the last wheel did, the FF feels smoother and the brake peddle feels like it has a progressive spring in it. Maybe they upgraded it or I had a shotty wheel to begin with

Cool, you got fishing poles. Just joking of course. Your box looks different than mine did. Maybe they did upgrade it...who knows. Anyway, happy to have you back friend. I just haven't been the same since you left. Now come here big boy and let me give you a bog ol' hug, I missed you man.

whoa now! Haha it's a relief to get it back. I went through withdraws!! Yea those are my 'baitfish' fishing poles. I use those to catch small fish to put on my bigger poles to catch catfish with. One thing I love more than racin, is fishing. Matter of fact, that's what I'm gonna be busy doing lol better bring your a game next week Mitch cause I will be!

OMG, you are now my new man crush. Thats exactly what I do. I go out in the morning and catch 2 or 3 carp and then filet them up into strips and use them to go catfishing at night. I love night fishing for big ol' cats. The biggest I caught was a 27 pounder out of the Detroit River near the opening of Lake Erie. Talk about a fight. Full moon too as thats when I've had some of my best fishing. Sorry about going off-topic, but you just got me all excited when you mentioned you were a cat fisherman.

Never caught a fish bigger than my finger but these are my new splits.

Not sure if i'll have enought time this week, but i had 2 short sessions so far, fun combo! never driven that track in GT5 (in reverse) its better than i thought, but the last split will require some time to get it right.

Do you have any advice on how to go about learning a new track, besides the obvious just doing laps. I mean, is there a particular way to go about doing it? How do you go about learning a new track, and not develope any bad habits for that track from the beginning.

 

[LeftyWright69]

Thought I should step up w/ this one

T1: 18.610
T2: 31.937

Nice setup Kevin 👍

T1: 18.621
T2: 31.637

[DigitalBaka]

I catch fish all the time. Though, admittedly, they are orange and come from a box.

Not yet had an improvement in my time but the adrenaline from the Hawks win tonight is slowly subsiding so maybe I can concentrate now.

You do know what you can do with your :censored:cago Blackhawks, right? In case you haven't noticed, I live in Detroit and am a very devoted RedWings fan. 👍 Besides the Tigers, they are the only hometown team I route for. Besides that, I despise any :censored:cago team.

Just a little friendly trash talk for you from a Detroit guy. 👍

Them catfish have to come outta the cool water else they ain't no good. So outta the box isn't such a bad idea! Well, maybe I should just stick to racing on the page? 💡

 

[GTP_Remo]

Slower T1 and T2 but apparently a blazing T3 (for me anyway) , knocked off nearly 6 tenths from the lap. I'm happy with my T1s would like to shave 5 or so off of T2 though.

[Windy_1238]

Why are the European's soo much faster, and the Japanese for that matter, is it their version of GT? Pardon me for such a lame question!
