GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 48 : Rotary Madness

[millross]

At last some seat time this week.

Best, but with a weak T3 was:

T1: 10.652
T2: 19.691

Still have a lot to learn about the last sector

These splits make me sad! Back to the track I guess :-D

Nice going Joao

I've used a brake balance of 6/5, more brake force at the back than in front without active steering is almost a suicide at the right hander exactly after T2 split.

I'm not using active steering, just being very careful with the pedal, and also have ABS at 10. Have seen the 10.6xx T1's, just have not tied them to a good T3.

The only place my BB is giving me trouble are the double apex corners at the top and bottom of track, losing grip as I turn in, and I think the drift may be costing me a bit of time. Sometimes, it ruins the run entirely.

Will give your stabilizing BB a try. 👍

I'm not going to submit, sorry for posting splits...

 

[GTP_RaceRyder]

New G27, learning right in the middle of event, brake is a new adventure, ABS 9, BB 3/6
everything else off. I have a better T1 with the old DFGT, 10.8XX, back at it.

11.024
19.831

Submitted my total time, wasn´t able to do any improvements since my last post.

 

[mike_gt3]

I am a little late for this one , i still need to learn the track more especially the last spit, not too sure about it... I havent run a lot on this track, especially reverse but its a lot of fun!

i was a little late on braking on the 2nd split, will try to work on that, and on the last split.


T1: 10.585
T2: 19.740

Thx Carlos!

 

[Usual Suspect]

Thanks Jon, Matt and Mike 👍 glad you could join us, it´s not every week that we have 3 D1 "aliens".

It´s going to be fun to watch

You can consider yourself a D1 alien too, with those spilts. Very nice 👍


I did a stint tonight aswell. Pulled off a .390 at T2 but screwd up T3 completly I'm very sad now. I'm off to bed and cry myself to sleep

It can be frustrating at time for sure!

Is this the way to erase the previous split times? 💡

edit: sorry should have just edited my previous post... grr

You can post the splits without striking the previous ones. You only need to strike the previous splits if you post them in the same post..

Nice splits.👍

 

[mike_gt3]

Alright, thx Wes

 

[Mr P]

Slippy at first but getting a feel for it now...

10.814
19.770

Seen 10.6 at T1 but still a lot of work ahead getting it in my best save I'll be back 👍



@ Kev... feel free to drop me from D1 gold to a more fitting group as I'm pretty sure I don't belong in with the top dogs anymore, I'm still happy to compete in any group 👍 It's just an observation mate

Great combo btw 👍

 

[mike_gt3]

Good start Mr P!

Enought for me tonight , the first curve after the 2nd split is driving me crazy! haha


T1: 10.510
T2: 19.568

i ended with about the same final time though ....

 

[Usual Suspect]

Insane splits

Did you find a shortcut on the montains, Mike ?

 

[Energizerrr]

First 30 minutes worth of splits:

10.634
19.848


Not submission-worthy but I'll give it a proper go tomorrow (.5 for T1 and .6 for T2 is my goal for this week). 👍

Sick splits Mike. 👍

 

[mike_gt3]

first time luck!

Seriously i am happy so far, didnt expected that with the runtime i had before today on this track.

I have to say its a great track and car combo! 👍

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Managed to go slower at T2 but faster at the line by a massive 11 thousandths!!! Will try again later

 

[Mr P]

Cheers Mike 👍 best save for me now has...

10.643
19.749

made .2 at the line even after a sloppy uphill section going back for more now

👍

Never seen so much D1 gold in one board since my first WRS
To match Mike first two splits:
- T1: after starting line, flat down in 4th down the first right, then press R3 on the controller for 'teleport after corner'
- T2: after tunnel, use L3 on the controller for Automan 180 degrees reverse.

It can be frustrating at time for sure!

Sometimes, the closer you get to the deadline the frustrating moments add on. Looking at your splits is frustrating aswell. Very nice splits. I dropped to P14. Now i don't want a .3xx at T2 anymore, i MUST need it and hope to get myself together in T3.

Talking of shortcuts. Why did you told it to usual suspect nice spilts there man.

 

[Barra333]

Wow, PBs in all 3 sectors
10.653
19.761

Edit: Just for clarification, there are no invisible walls to look out for here? Specifically, just before entering the tunnel at the start of the lap. The dirt raises up to the fence and is acting as a bit of an oversized rumble strip. I miss the fence by quite a distance, but wanted to know there is nothing there that is going to get me in trouble in the results thread

Always nice to improve al sectors in 1 lap.

Well that's why they called invisible Serieus, you can check it with data logger. If you see a drop in the speed line, you probably hit the invisible thing. I had the same thing last night. Wachted my replay several time could not see a touch but when i looked at the data logger i saw a tiny drop in the speedline. The improvement was minor so i deleted the replay. Not gonna take any risk for an improvement of only a couple of hundreds. I say wait for the a mod to clarify.


Some improvement from this side aswell. Started this morning with awefull T1's lap after lap. Had a really hard time with T1. Could not even go below .850 T2 was good and T3 wasnet best also. But manage improve almost .2xx at the line

10.66x
19.72x

Oops a typo

First quick session, hope to get more track time tomorrow

I'm new to WRS my division classification is not up yet but i thought to give it a try and compare myself to you guys while waiting anxiously for my classification.

After few tries i was able to

T1: 10.925
T2: 20.288

very hard to put more entry speed at the first sector, while i'm still struggling to brake the 20 secs mark on T2 , i think it will be all settled in Q3 so technical and its all about under-steer fighting. i Hope to be able to join soon.

NB:I'm using DS3

For me the last corner is comsidered like a double apex, i let the car run wild positioning myself for the downhill run, on the line, then reaching 4th for the first bend and kept it until reaching corner 2, should watch the weight transition going into second corner the more i stay with the infield wall the better exit i get obviously 💡 failing to do so results with riding the wall prior to tunnel entry, i brake progressively to third and moving left as soon as i exit the tunnel again let the car run wild for better late apex positioning crucial here for a better run towards the hairpins, over the bridge and a serious weight transfer as the car hits the sudden uphill extremely tricky here i can gain or loose a lot as it sets the flow into the hairpins, on the back straight i kept it in third over the jumps hitting 4th just prior to last corner.
what an amazing combination this one! WRS Rocks 👍

 

[Manuelos]

Damn, I've had another try, done a dozen of 30.3's but I can't seem to get within .1 of my best
The first corner just after T2 is so crucial, there's tons of grip when you nail it perfectly

you found my trick!

hehe if we are allowed i can try to explain the racing line i used, if that can help in any way

Will try again today, its getting difficult!

Manuelos you nailed it, that curve make all the difference for me. i had a .493 and a .496 1st split and under 30 sec once at split 2 but lost it all at that curve

I wish i was happy with the last split, everything can change there, very good combo choice!
