*** Board updated ***

My 1st go at it! Not bad but way more improvement needed.
Your GTP tag is not recognised by the leaderboard so I couldn't add your splits.

To jtv: in the registry your GTP tag is listed as gtp_jtv90069, could you put this in your personals as well please? If you have, removing the first tag will leave enough room to show it 👍

virtually the same splits but a much better t3 :)
 
Have seen a few 45.7xx but no 24.xxx first sector at all! I can do 10 consecutive 25.0xx but can't get the extra power.

25.064
20.845


EDIT:25.015
20.875

faster 0.004 at the line :lol:

EDIT 2: Finally a 24.967

22 D2 drivers on the board!! :D & 49 drivers on the board total, last time there were 50 or more was back in July, week 23 - so basically.....epic turnout! Long live the WRS!

I was just noticing the same thing. :)

The Holiday Season normally brings back a few familiar faces, and nothing like an Arcade TT with a popular car, on Sports Tires, on a relatively short track.

Great turnout for Online WRS this week as well. :D

I thought you had access to the "admin" portion of the board. If so, all you need to do it hit the "Fetch Splits" button, and he'll still do everything for you.
 
Slight improvement. I'll try a different brake balance, can't seem to improve much with what I'm using now. Looks like some of you are using rear BB. Maybe it will help turn the car for turns 1 & 2. Those corners are driving me crazy.:crazy:

T1, 25.441
T2, 21.292
 
That first sector is really starting to anoying me BIG time :banghead:

My left rear tire is hanging above the line while entering the tunnel.

Am I legal, here?

Cut another tenth, but that T3 was pretty bad :( Almost 2 tenths off my T3 PB.

24.985
20.769
 
You're legal Dennis. The white strips are part of the track. But this is going to be hard to check with closer pictures..
 
Fetchy was having issues with me! I re-submitted my total time hopefully this time it works.

Wow! What happened? Messed around with this earlier in the week, come back for a few laps this morning & there's 51 drivers. Awesome!

Thanks Wes. I thought so. But better save then sorry

Then i have new spilt. Doesn't change a thing on the board but found .1xx at the line. While trying to find time in T1 , i did it in T3 :lol:

24.960
20.716
 
Got around to reading my splits from my first 25 lap run,
T1: 25.626
T2: 21.242

May get a little time at it this evening, if not will have to submit with these splits.
 
I wish people would stop pushing me down by thousandths!

I here ya. Once the board updates there will be nine d2'rs within .1 sec of eachother. I think there's going to be alot of that this week.
 
Third session today, and spent hours with very good T1+T2 but..... what I did in T3 first day?

This is just better for a whisper, but mostly smoke in the face:
T1: 24.942
T2: 20.690
 
My first practice laps :)

25.269
20.886

Like so many people this week,saw faster T1 and T3 but this is it for now.

👍 for the combo.
 
Small improvement and maybe my last try before submitting. It's first time I'm ahead in D2 after some days :D
Can I enjoy it for.... an hour?

Better T1 (my best) and T3. Slower T2. Still 1 tenth far from my ideal lap

T1: 24.942 24.850
T2: 20.690 20.770

EDIT: Doh :ouch: Energizer :lol:
 
Pretty good splits Duck. 👍
I dont know if I should do anymore runs...but what's funny is that a good T1 yealds a good T2, I never had a good T2 with bad T1. :lol:
Also, this is by far the WRS event I spent least time on, this is only my 3rd day on it (1h stints each day, didn't do it yesterday).

Had many messups at T3, crazy frustration when you see a great split go away just due to me overshooting the hairpin. -.-
Anyways, great combo although I enjoyed other combos more. 👍
 
I feel this will be my best run, clean, no track edge issues, bb 0/1 abs 1, rev limit max!

25.293
21.224
 
I will have to check my saves later but I have about 6 saves all within 2 tenths of a second... I'm sure 1 of them will be 2 wheels behind the white line entering the tunnel on the kerb

As for the last turn I usually stay 2 wheels on track there by default on the exit... will race again tonight anyway and clean up any possible issues with a good session on it 👍

Hope you all had a nice Christmas and all the best for 2012 :cheers:
