GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 46 : An M3 on S3's at GVE

EDK · Dec 30, 2011

Mr P
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

As long as you have a wheel even over that line, you are OK. It's damn near impossible to be all the way up on there with 3 or 4 wheels without hitting the wall.

If in doubt! bin it springs to mind 👍 will be some nice work for the verifiers with so many entrants :dopey:

A nice way to start the year with some magnifying glasses and 100 different angle pics of the same location haha :lol:

Anyway off to check mine... back in a bit :nervous:

Yup, I know you're stand up when it comes to this and I will take the same approach with mine. Just wanted to make sure you didn't chuck something in the bin that would pass muster and regret it later.

...

T1: 24.935
T2: 20.777

Nothing great, just little chunks of time here and there.

MilleRSVR · Dec 30, 2011

Latest splits, some improvement.

T1, 25.347
T2, 21.196

Biffy · Dec 30, 2011

That first corner is evil, really the bain of my life this week. After about 40 laps I've finally managed to join the 24.8 club that is residing on the leaderboard. It led to a slower T2 but I'm just glad to get near the top of D2 for once.

T1 - 24.853
T2 - 20.840

Also I see D2 is out in force this week. Is there hidden candy somewhere in this week's WRS that I don't know about? :scared:

Someone using chocolate as bait? If so, I want in :sly:

Near but not impossible! No wall touches either...

On that note, would this be legal or not?

That first photo was from my fastest lap so far, was gutted to watch the replay as I had a very fast (for me) T2, second quickest lap is still an improvement but contains the image shown above where the rear left seems to be mighty close to being dirty...

24.943
20.948

Speedy6543 · Dec 30, 2011

Two wheels are still on the line here.
It's clean.

The left is clean. 👍

You need to carefully scrutinize the wall side, to be sure there's no contact. Suggest the data logger, and make sure there's not an "invisible" wall.

Cheers guys, the wall side is good.

Having one more session with this on Monday, working 12 hour days and then doing this in the evenings is taking its toll!

Very addictive combination though, just hope I can find the quarter second or so I have seen in splits but as yet am unable to string together!

Nice to see my manual assistance for the leaderboard is no longer needed 👍 thanks to Jordan and his impeccable care for the servers and our forum :bowdown:

Ditto that! Thanks Jordan! 👍

millross · Dec 30, 2011

I give up

Just ran a long-ish session and got my 2nd fastest lap of the week, which unfortunately means I achieved sod all. 14th to 21st in about 12 hours

dsgerbc · Dec 31, 2011

Got to devote another hour.

25.015
20.795

Still not even into 24s for T1. Hope to give it more time after NY.

CSLACR · Dec 31, 2011

Looks like I gotta head back out and cut 3 tenths for a solid finish now.
Nice times up there guys, from everyone.👍

noshog · Dec 31, 2011

I'm back to give it a run for the holidays too

After a couple of hours yesterday and a hour today to try and clean up I ended with these...
24.815
20.687
That's probably it for me, I'm expecting to be a bit hung over the next couple of days :lol:

Who you kidding :sly:

I saw last weeks results :lol:

Cats_PJs · Dec 31, 2011

Found a little bit more. Can't believe how fast the board is picking up speed.

24.954

First splits, I am posting, lots of laps to do!

T1 25.486
T2 21.200

Allibubba99 · Dec 31, 2011

2nd try!

25.984

chukabilly · Dec 31, 2011

Oh for crying out loud!!!

Every time I check the leaderboard it's bad news for me! I'm going to have to drive all year just to catch up, if I can!

And now here comes NOSHOG to put the bar even higher! {Seriously, Nos, nice job!👍} As if it wasn't already hard enough to chase the D2 podium this week, he posts WHAT for a time??? :eek:

..........

There is only one thing left to do. :sly:

Racing On!!!

WRP001 · Dec 31, 2011

My first splits in 8 weeks:

T1: 25.092
T2: 20.987

Still a lot of time left on track, especially the first double left which seems like a "chuck it and catch it" kind of corner or "Chuk it" for short.

If you start feeling bad about not getting a podium due to participation, have a look at me in week 1.

chukabilly · Dec 31, 2011

Maybe not a podium, but 25 out 175 seems pretty good to me. A lot of familiar names in there!

edit: And you were the second fastest American! :cheers:

Mr_ANDERSON · Dec 31, 2011

Yes, finally managed to string together a decent lap I can be proud of. It may not get me a podium, but at least I'm still competitive to give those above me a run for their money :sly:

T1: 24.887
T2: 20.704

That might have been a better title for this one.

I have had enough! :indiff:

Will be away from the PS3 for the weekend. HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!
