GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 48 : Rotary Madness

[cicua]

First the M3, and now the RX-7. My two most beloved cars in this game.

I really, really do not have the time for this, and if I can keep that promise to myself you will hear nothing from me for the rest of the week

 

[zocker_16]

Did a good lap today i think this could be my final time.

T1: 10.645
T2: 19.641

Had faster T1/2 splits, (10.58x in the first) but my best lap was always 3/10 faster through the hairpins.

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.

See the 7th item in the first post of this thread.

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.

Very similar situation to me, but I have less will power than you although in fairness I did miss the Chamonix event. Remember it's the Alfa next week so perhaps decide which one you want to run on more 💡

 

[Duck]

Chamonix is not ended yet and 23 of you are already having fun here?

The car was a bit tidy for me pre 2.0: do you remember the Tsukuba seasonal ?
I hope can appreciate it with new physics, with all these hairpins.

Here too. I couldn't resist to the charme of Chamonix, and this will be my third in-a-row. Hopefully wife is bringing a lot of extra work to home in this weeks, and needs a lot of time behind the pc. I'll make a break for the Alfa. Promised.

I spent the best part of an hour chasing my ghost and catching up with it in the final sector then BANG! 6 tenths off and BANG! another 8 tenths. Overall lap time nearly 1.5 seconds better.

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

Yeah, makes for interesting chat at the coffee machine first thing in the morning!!

[mike_gt3]

The first 4 drivers within 0:00.088!! good job! 👍

I hope ill find some time this week to participate, sound like a fun combo!

 

[C_Raccoon23]

All I could get tonight:

T1: 11.092
T2: 20.434

 

[chukabilly]

Oh for crying out loud!!!

...

I'm probably going to finish last in D2 again, and I could spend a whole week trying to understand Jon's explanation of the exact effect I have incurred on my chance of advancing to D2 Silver due to the damage done to my handicap, but I can't worry about that right now.

[That's me, not Jon!]
I'll log in some laps with this totally awesome combo. But for now the only important thing is working and driving, then comes sleeping! That will translate into about 15-20 hours on this one.
I have to paint a house during the day and close the restaurant at night, not to mention I have to keep driving the Alpha for the WRS/ORCA Challenge!

Of course, they call it the ORCA/WRS Challenge!

Racing On!

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Small improvement at T2 but 0.4 at the line. Seen a few 10.6xx inT1 so there is still more to find there, plus I think I have a tenth in T2. Looking for 0.3 on the lap

10.789

[ArtAnonim]

T1: 00'11.044
T2: 00'20'484

Yep, nothing special :/

 

[the_wilco]

Very nicely done Wilco 👍

Thanks Jon. Although my previous best T3 was very bad.

More to come, I hope - but beating this lap will take some doing....

Nice one Matt 👍 Must feel good to get THAT lap in so early in the week!

I had a long session last night but struggled to hook the three sectors together. I'm down to a respectable T3 time, but I'm still losing out in T1 and T2. Saw a few high 10.6's in T1 so it's doable. I think I'm doing what I was doing at the start of wk46 i.e. going into the turns too hard. Spent a chunk of time just messing with BB trying to get some bite in the front end, but I think these tyres are just plastic Ended up at ABS 9 and BB 5/3 - it helped in T3 but made the long left in T2 more difficult. Will give your BB a go next time.

 

[Vagabond]

Sweet sector 2 time there zocker 👍

I think I hit my limit in my first session... Can get a better sector 2 with a slower 1st sector... or just a slightly faster 3rd sector chasing my ghost from a tenth down.

Nice going so far guys. 👍 Simon and Thomas - just run it for half an hour and call it done

Good luck to all!

 

[Cats_PJs]

First look at this combo. There's at least .4 left in the lap but it's a good place to start I think. I know it won't hold up by the end of the week.
