Hey guys, I just wanted to check before I submit; this corner exit out of bergwerk should be clean right?

It's right at the end of the left-side curb and I think I managed to time it so the rear tyre is just past the last stone. The car is cutting in to the track at that point so the next closest frame I can manage to pause at, the tyre covers the line. I tried pointing the camera in the direction of travel but this is my first ever gt5 photo so I don't know if it worked

My next question is should I update my leadboard splits if my submission has slower T9 but faster at the line?

Very clean, you are allowed to go with 2 wheels on hard surface, concrete next to the rumble strip is also considered part of track.

Edit: didn't see Sureboss his explanation

Also just threw away a lap in the very final corner that was a second faster than this.

Can still see 3-5 seconds there. Held off quite a bit through T7-9. Saw I had a good time going and backed off a little! Still, -10 seconds at T9 and 12 seconds at the line!

Probably not got the time to run another session though! But am submitting now so I don't forget!

 

[yanaran]

Thanks Sureboss and poolhaas. I already ditched one faster lap that I suspected touched a wall but couldn't say 100% one way or the other in photo mode. Didn't want to throw another one unless I had to

Almost a carbon copy of my previous but I found some rythm after that and managed .6 faster at the line.

 

[folkboy]

just attemped a really "touristic" lap. i bet my time is the slower of the pack

 

[LeftyWright69]

I got one more run left in me for tomorrow morning when I'm fresh. I sure would like to make the podium considering how much time I have put in on this track The last 2+ seconds I need to take off on my shows should do the trick if I can keep my focus and clean the course.

I was able to hit 174 Mph / 280 Kph top speed, so I was wondering how much higher someone was able to push it? 👍

Hello

Im new to this forum, and the reason i registered is because i like the concept, and i would love to be part of a competition =)

But i have a question:

*The event MUST be run using your GTP_Tag Account

Do i have to make a new account ? or is my account tagged since i registered here ?
And how do you get the results right from participants ?

thanks =)

Kristian

Achived my goal and I'm very happy with achived but still not satisfied completely as I had a big mistake in sector3 and T7-T9 is still to slow....will have one last go tomorrow probably....

Insane T1 and 2, are you using some sort of facy BB setup?

 

[CarBastard]

Time submitted. Best wishes to all other participants 👍.

[Dr_Watson]

I love the resonator engine note of the 8 cyl R8 in headphones... Sounds all old and vintage; feels like screaming around in an old Auto Union with goggles and a scarf.

Apparently I have plenty of time to trim tomorrow morning...

T1:44.951
T2:34.460

T7:49.406
T8:34.517
T9:29.597

Of course this is also probably not the quickest way into Schwalbenschwanz.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!

1.0 up at T9 and 0.8 at the line - forgot to save the replay
2.1 up at T8 - off at the double right after Pflanzgarten I
1.8 up at T4 - run wide at Bergwerk

Mother 🤬

This place WILL NOT beat me and I WILL achieve a lap time that realises the potential of all my failed attempts.

First splits, probably my only ones for this one. No time this week.
T1: 44.827

T8: 34.710

Love this combo, just don't have the time to get quick.

 

[CSLACR]

Hey Carlos, if it makes you feel better I just achieved my 2nd 'goal mark' its waiting for you right there, the trick is to mildly compromise the gains each time. I still see over a second, but nobody gets all PB's once they're in the nitty gritty. I also avoid early restarts, as the second half and finish all count just as much.

 

[EDK]

Splits from my submission.

Laps ended up being much more difficult to finish on this combo that I originally thought they would be.

But then again, that much time at the limit is just really difficult.

 

[Gravitron]

This is all I've got for this week, made some mistakes but my better lap ended up in the wall after the long straight .

Nice work, my friend. 👍
Back to the 'Ring for me, then!

 

[CSLACR]

Updated splits, satisfied with my time (finally) bombed t9-finish a bit, but got inside the 'fun zone' Good luck all, be hoping luck keeps me in front of Sureshot across the line, but expecting 5th as per current standings

Thanks CSL - my last opportunity to run this combo and I've FINALLY nailed 'the lap' together. Dropped a tenth in T7 and two tenths in T9 (braked too much for the double right at Pflanzgarten) but otherwise I'm over the moon with the lap, especially as I beat my target total lap time by seven tenths after a monster run to the line

Submitted lap with current splits on the board

 

[Gravitron]

Previous splits were in the red car, and it would have been a devil of a task for whoever had to verify the replay, with 3 questionable spots.

Now in the angelic white car, it should be a breeze, spin n span.

Moving on to the Civic now. 👍

 

[Usual Suspect]

I consider myself a calm person, but this week has been an absolute nightmare

When i tought it couldn´t be any worst, this track shows me it can. I´m in front of my ghost by almost a second and on THE FINAL TURN, the absolute final turn, don´t ask me how, the car goes against the metal fence

Don´t know if i have the strenght to try again later on

Been there, got the t-shirt.

 

[DDiamond]

Catching up with the posts....some great times!

Gave this combo my second try yesterday and blew it at Tiergarten [with a 4 second improvement] tapping the brakes too much!!!

Unfortunately, work took a lot of my time this past week, but may get a chance to give it a another short go today.
