Mmmm I'am in the spec 1, I still need to update the game and the PS :nervous: hope the spec 1 will help me if I get the update . . . . :indiff:

Can't wait to get to do WRS again 👍

I've had my B-spec drivers running break-in miles today while I work.........400+ for 727hp...I guess that's the top HP.

Anyway, after a few, not very spiffy. :grumpy:


T1: 30.581
T2: 22.410


Reminds me right after GT5 came out and I was running this course for a Seasonal Gold.....except now, no banging the walls. But that Nissan GT I used is a sweet car, IMO.



And yes, Phillip, it sure is dark!! :scared

First splits:
28.129
21.695

I'm still breaking to car in and playing with tuning to try to build in a bit of understeer on acceleration so stop ruining good laps by spinning out. This car is a handful for sure. I reckon we'll see some really fast times from those that are skilled enough to control it without having to compromise too much on the setup.

You need to put your Division (1,2,3,4 or 5) and placement (gold, silver, bronze) in your sig in order for the splits to show properly in the leaderboard. Have you run through the WRS Qualifier Zubski?

Yes I have run the qualifier, im waiting for my division. I just wanted to play along though this week.
 
Cool, sounds good and have fun dude! :cheers:

I have a question for all the setup guru's. I think I read somewhere about the suspension settings being reversed on the left side of the page.... Did the update fix that? Or is everything still opposite? If they did fix it, wouldn't these old setups need to be reversed?

I tried one of the setups and I was spinning around so much I felt like I was on a merry go round.
 
update, dont know if it's sony or both, currently downloadin PSN update.
 
T1: 28.983
T2: 21.858

I don't know what I did but something just clicked on and I dropped over a second at the line. :eek: And I still have time I can get pretty easily. I've got my ghost by .3-.4 regularly through T2 and maybe .1-.2 in T3 if I can keep my nose out of the wall on that last turn or keep from brushing the walls after the big hairpin.

I'm having so much fun with this car I hadn't realized I ran 30 laps straight through. :lol: I think I have a new favorite race car.
 
This is the best race car to drive that I've tried yet I think.

Wow, and I thought I was running a open diff!

26.879
20.584

It seems to be working for me. :)
If I can run these splits with a tidier T3, I'll be set.

Oh, I pushed my FF from 1 up to 10, don't know why for sure, I guess to see if it made me faster, I think it did. :)
 
Not happy with these first splits, but I can't seem to beat them (yet).
Using millross' tune, with the DS3 for now. Wheel later, hopefully.

28.662
21.962
 
Small improvement. Still running millross set up with a slightly softer rear end. I think unfortunately thats me done for the week. :(

T1: 27.510
T2: 20.889

Happy racing.
 

I think I have settled on 10/15/15.

With this tune...
...
-30 / -25

Do you mean -25/-30 or are you really running with a higher front? Could be interesting.

Very nice splits 👍

I am now using Avid's rock hard suspension only with small changes:

-25/-30
14.2/15.6
8/8
7/7
4/6
2.6/2.2
-0.05/0

Brake balance 5/3/1. The usual trick with stronger rear brake to help turn in does not really work on this car.

For the dark screen people: Try XMB > Settings > Display Settings > RGB Full Range = OFF. Made a world of a difference to me.

Learned my lesson after I did the seasonal on this track, I bought a new TV.

Your note, and/or turn up the bright setting on your TV will help as well.

This one is really growing on me...

T1: 27.541
T2: 21.146

Had a bit of a moment in T2, so still a couple of tenths to be had yet
 
^^ People like that should be asked to run the qualifier again and run a respectful time, but that's not for me to call. ;)

Figured I should stay with the tune I have, which isn't actually much different to millross' or a few other tunes on the forums. I thought I could improve my T2 time today, but I couldn't even match my best sector 1 time from yesterday. So here are yesterday's splits:

26.644
20.271

Bit Harsh don't you think?

I'll vouch for Iddledoo, No sandbagging there.
Not after the amount of time I know he spent on the qualifier.
Got alot to do with the tasty new sim he bought I'd say!

T1: 29.161
T2: 22.323

New splits for me.
Still trying to tame the beast at the moment.

Cheers All !!!
 
Made some improvement, especially in T2 using CSLACR 's setup. Thanks for sharing!
