GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 30 : Gettin' Dirty with a French Girl

[Anghammarad]

Maybe you just got better,

That's probably it, which means I can submit my 22.37X and 47.23X times... 💡

Well you can if you want to be DQ'd for running in free run and not the seasonal. Also those splits may be possible if one of the aliens turn up.

 

[CSLACR]

I already got a 22.294, so I know the first one is.
Any gains I find in t2 screw up t3 so far though.

 

[poolhaas]

Pff, lousy maintenance, had a good hour of time to run today, but no dice.
Finally getting a hang of the steering and throttle, now to keep it out of the barriers.

A point about the car then... that spoiler just had to put it on.

 

[CSLACR]

Thankfully I live on top of a bigger hill in a higher city.
All of these within 30 minutes.

Since PSN's down I thought I'd share.
Just wild stuff going on everywhere around me, and I literally can't go south, because a river runs across, and said river swallowed the earth. Hardest rain I've seen in ever. In ever.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

That's some serious water Dom - hope you and yours stay safe 👍

It's pretty dry right here, the benefit of hills.
I plan to find the picture of people literally kayaking in a parking lot down the road, one that isn't connected to water, just a 5 foot deep puddle.

T1: 22.882
T2: 25.346

New personal best in T1 and T2. T3 could have been better.

 

[nuclearfire]

First splits:

T1: 24.197
T2: 27.473

 

[poolhaas]

24.332
26.491

Need to find a way to get a faster T1, T2 is basically eyes closed and go for me.

 

[Denur]

Slowly getting this combo. For me the hardest part is T1 and the first right-hander after T1: maintaining speed and shifting at the right moment to keep grip. The T3 with this lap got me laughing when I replayed it, lots of oversteer, but somehow fast.

23.547
26.229

 

[Anghammarad]

Hmmm. Apparently there was no big difference between the free run and the seasonal.

22.339
25.252

Rubbish T2 as you can see. Seen a 22.1 T1 and can clearly envision a sub 47 T2. Am I getting something wrong here?

 

[Denur]

All of a sudden found half a second in T1. Now the rest of the track.....

23.005
26.309

Are you part finnish?

 

[ASH32]

Well I improved again earlier.

22.837
24.878

I've had a few 22.5 T1s so I hope I can at least get a 22.6 T1 together with a good lap.

 

[Anghammarad]

Are you part finnish?

Actually both my parents were from Finland.

 

[poolhaas]

I'll be withdrawing for this week, my TCS went back on after turning it off a few days ago and I forgot to look.
I tought it might be going too well and I can't improve with TCS off sooo. see you guys next week.

I haven't seen 22.1, but a sub 47 T2 I could definitely see, you just have to nail both sectors, and finish well.

Submitted, probably won't run it again, GL everybody.👍

 

[Vagabond]

That is a mental T2, are you running with the power unplugged again

No, plugged in this week Peter Can't repeat that sector 2 with a decent 1st and 3rd though. With a better T1 I end up backing off through the esses. Good old mutually exclusive sectors 👍 You're going well on the online leaderboard too mate. I've had a couple of quick goes with the Evo but I'm 3 tenths off you as it stands

I already got a 22.294....

Seen a 22.1 T1...

Outrageous! I can't see a T1 that fast even in theory.. you've both totally nailed sector 1 👍

Sweet splits.

Great one Ian 👍 Going to be nip and tuck with you and Peter.

I managed quite a tidy lap with a good gain at the line - my theoretical best is still another 4 tenths faster but realistically, this may be about my limit. Seen a couple of 22.5s and quite a few 22.6s but can't match my 2nd sector with them. Sector 3 also very variable with up to half a second difference. Crazy week.

22.715
24.583

Edit - Posted splits set with ride height 20/40

 

[viper84]

T1: 23.120
T2: 25.018

A bit slower in T1 but faster in T2

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Stop going to fast Viper Nice splits

 

[Usual Suspect]

A new try and some better splits.

Still see where to improve so will try again before the deadline

T1: 22.788
T2: 25.516

 

[Cats_PJs]

22.911
26.336
No idea how you guys are running those T2 times.

 

[WRP001]

I tried, I tried and I failed. Two nights and I just can't get any traction in this event so I'm going to just skip it and save some energy for next week. I think I'm missing some fundamental techniques for dirt rally... just sticking to tarmac for now I guess. Good luck to everyone.

I remember rally being much easier in previous GT's or am I wrong?

 

[CSLACR]

I think it's the TCS, with that on one rally is as easy as pie, this is trying to feather the throttle perfectly while steering perfectly through a twisted maze.
Fun though, I thought, just can't catch my lucky lap.

 

[Anghammarad]

22.285

Very close in some places but replay says clean.

That's just ridiculous

I knew somebody would find it, I had a fifth try today, just no magic left.

 

[Denur]

Wow, some amazing splits there.

Better T2 and T3 for me.
