Awsome an Arcade event I am in, As long as everthing else goes to plan this week I may get an hour or two. Fingers are crossed. I dont know this track from a bar of soap so it should be interesting. 👍

Hi, Eiger is my favorite track since GTHD so this is a must for me and the perfect combo for my first WRS TT.

Had a quick 40 min run to get a feeling for this combo.
T1 and T2 were pretty well i don´t think theres much left for me, T3 is the part to work on now.

Splits:
10.645
19.747

Nice to have you here Zocker.


Difficult combo, I hope I'll have time for it.

Do you own Prologue? If so, there should be lots of laps in the archives you could watch.

If not, there's this -

 

[millross]

That's Dan, right? Sweeeet lap, beautiful car control as D1'ers often have

Don't see why the exact same principles won't work with the RX7 - just not quite as quick as that Elise

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Other than the fact that it won't turn in well at slow speed and has zero engine braking...

Agree though, sweet lap

 

[the_wilco]

Tricky combo. I wouldn't be surprised if this lap isn't the one I submit. That first sector is driving me mad.

First splits:
T1: 10.794
T2: 20.125

Love the combo, Kevin!! 👍

 

[Vagabond]

Of course, when Chris or Wes run, they'll probably tell me they hit the limiter if they don't shift.

I had a quick go to take a break from the snow. Not hitting the limiter quite but it redlines so I am shifting up to 4th just about at the summit after the jump. Can't see any advantage in shifting in mid air though...

The long hairpin after the tunnel, enter in 3rd, semi-drift in on the brakes but slightly wide, down to 2nd to get it round for the exit.

10.587
19.741

Not a bad start but its all going to be about sector 3 this week anyway. I must've run a million laps of Nordwand Reverse in the Evo IV when all we had was GT HD... reverse is much better fun than forwards I reckon. This RX7 is quite fun too.

Back to Chamonix...

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Nice T1 Chris

 

[Usual Suspect]

Uauu Chris, that´s just your start?

First hour:

T1: 10.769
T2: 19.927

 

[MilleRSVR]

First splits, I think there's more sliding in this combo than the snow event.

T1, 10.903
T2, 20.226

 

[GTP_RaceRyder]

First splits, I like this, Ahh, Prolog memories!

11.161
20.424

 

[LeftyWright69]

This track is just tricky enough to push me to the edge w/ the A/T and will be a test for those who thought they liked "right hand left hand up hill down hill." Great call Kevin 👍

T1: 10.817
T2: 20.124

Thanks EDK now Thats going to be a tough track to learn. This is the first GT game I have really ever played. Not much of a gamer but as my Racing (Karts) budget has dried up for a while (House and Wedding) I have to get my racing fix from somwhere and a couple of guys from work Blodimahem and Iddledoo Raved about this so much i thought I would have a go. I must say it is working I really enjoy the Time Trialing obviously no where near as good as the real thing but it will do for now.

Wow, had no idea you guys were all interrelated. Nice to have all you guys in here. 👍

 

[GTP_RaceRyder]

I agree Blair, the snow gave me a better understanding of the lines, so feel better doing this time vrs the prolog runs. I see you have made a breaktrough on your times in the topless lady race. Congrats!

I didn't realise that you were all buddies. That's excellent

Going to be another bumper week this week I reckon - already 19 times up on the board

Thanks Dale,

I seemed to take to the snow event pretty well, not so sure about this one though. I always seem to struggle with the arcade style events. I can't tune out some of my bad driving habits.

 

[WRP001]

The Steelers play in the playoffs tomorrow, priorities, you know.

Sorry Kevin. Ouch! Well it only hurts for 9 months. Got off plane, saw score and my jaw dropped. Did not expect that. Hope my team does better against Denver next week.

On the bright side more time for driving now.

Broncos are my dad's team, can deal with that. You're a Pat? Might have to disown you!

 

[Carlos Fandango]

At least the Steelers were in with a shout. Could be worse, you could be a Falcons fan...

I'm from Maine so of course!!!

 

[GTP_Luds78]

It does add an extra element to the competitiveness having those two around.

 

[OnlyMe]

I'm not someone who spends hours on WRS, so my first stint was exactly 4 laps

11.045
20.268

 

[Barra333]

Let's hope I don't push the boundaries quite so close this week!
10.760
20.008

 

[Pluscat]

It is not my favorite car, but I like the track 👍

10.939
20.015

 

[w-g-e]

Not going to do well here even though my splits may not say that:

T1: 10.644
T2: 19.802

 

[Anghammarad]

I have a maximum amount of free time of around one hour per evening after the kids have gone to sleep and all other things are done so I've made a promise to my wife (although I haven't actually told her about it) that I will not do two WRS weeks in a row.

I'm actually a bit sad that I wont be able to participate this week. I won't even try it because there's a big chance that I'll get stuck in it.

 

[ArtAnonim]

Guys, this may be a noob question, but...
How to adjust brake balance in arcade mode, in arcade only cars? I've loaded the time trial up and there is no tuning menu avaiable...
I'm asking because some people already posted their BB's with splits.
