Time to get half a second off my overall time, then I'll be happy. Need to sort out my T4.

What BB are people using?

ABS 5 8/8

18.428
28.591
24.338

Still another 1/4 of a second out there on PBs in all sectors.

I've started taking T1 in 3rd gear, it's so much easier and I've got lots of .3s today, which is the best I can get. In 3rd gear it's much more controllable and you can ignore the brakes. I'm sure .2s are possible with this method on a 'good' line.

Will have one more run tomorrow, but it's getting near the limit!

Hi mates. It's hard finding some time this month. Just a couple of hours into this, and maybe another one tomorrow, but hopefully I'm already in D2 times.

T1: 28.276
T2: 28.825
T3: 24.229
 
Holy crap...I'm done with this one. Took hours just to get a clean sector 1 faster than my previous, and the wife is sick of seeing me restart.

T1: 18.807
T2: 29.928
T3: 24.539

Hey Duck! Nice splits - 'cept I think you've added 10 seconds on by mistake and you're sitting not quite where you should ;)

Getting real tight up in D2, lots of people within ~ .1 of a second :D
 
Oh, Matt!
I thinked Fetchbot was in vacations, not seeing my name on the board..... until I checked down the bottom side :D

No worries ;)

I really blew my T2 split with an average T3.... gonna have to hit the track again. I was mistaken though about T4....originally I thought it was good, but not my best...but it was actually a PB :)

This week has built up rather nicely!

So is it sector 1,2 and 4 times? Because I'm not too sure otherwise.. :dopey:

Anyway if so,

T1: 20.674
T2: 27.128
T3: ...........

There's more in it just can't cleanly get it out.

Also my first post in this :cheers:

EDIT: Wrong replay I think, :dopey: cause my lap was 6 tenths slower then it should have been..

The basic rule of WRS is *generally* not to disclose the last sector, in this case it is sector 4 - you should put up sectors 1, 2 and 3 - I think you have done this....but you mentioned 1, 2 and 4! :)

Welcome to WRS :D

Oh uh.. It just looked like everyone else had sector 4 times up, :nervous:

So when sending to fetchbot do we send all 4 sectors?

Thanks. 👍

To get your splits on the leaderboard, just post your T1, T2, and T3 splits.

To submit, send in just your laptime

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 52 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):



Please submit your time in the following format on a single line:
Time: X'XX.XXX
(Example-)

Time: 1'10.100

Welcome to WRS:)

You may want to check you're on the right track and/or using the right car as well; you appear to be over a second quicker than Wes in sector 2 :dopey:

And welcome to WRS :cheers:

Checked and it was right replay 👍
 
Matty, please start up Trial Mountain w/ the Maserati in Arcade Mode again, and check that Skid Recovery Force is set to off. A 27.1 in sector 2 is not possible, I'm afraid, if you're running all regs correct. Your T3 is a bit suspect too.
 
Every single time I get ahead of my ghost I mess up the end section by default :crazy: best save has these splits but losing up to a good .2 from T3 to the finish line 👎

18.030
28.622
24.088

I don't think I will get the lap I was pushing for? which would be about .2-.3 better at the line! due to nerves and split watching haha! but it has been a very fun combo indeed! :cheers:

Well done to the organizers for a very addictive WRS event 👍

GL to all still racing...

It was my S4 that I accidentally posted, don't think I got below a :30.000 in S3.

And that's it unless I typed it out wrong, I'll go check and re-post sector 1, 2 and 3 and confirm all aids are off but ABS which was at 1.

Found my problem, had cut sector 2 out by mistake.

T1: 20.674
T2: 32.375
T3: 26.810

My heads fried today, sorry for any inconvenience.

PB's indicate I got another .5 seconds to give, but I think .2 more and then I'll be happy.
 
Can't believe I'm so far off pace, and FetchBot keep's rejecting my times..
 
Do you have the correct tyres? It defaults to Sports hard if you do not change them.

Damn, just wasted a hour on Comfort Softs.. :banghead:

Really not myself this week...
 
Just submitted what I've done correctly so far. Somehow I managed to run for an hour this morning thinking I was just on fire because I was getting so fast, and it turns out that my SRF was on... I'm not even sure how that happened because I never use any aids but ABS...
 
T1: 0'18.742
T2: 0'29.289
T3: 0'24.564

Much improvement, but could not pass my PB ghost on T1. Still slower than what I posted before for T1, blah.

Such a good combo, throwing this tank around a mountain.
 
Finally got the combo right and had right tyres.

T1: 18.476
T2: 29.494
T3: 24.898

Can go faster in T2 and 3 but need to nail T1 to do so.

Yup 👍 I thought I'd got over this track but its getting to me again :scared:

Sweet splits by the way Ron 👍

All my top 10 times are now within 0.1 of each other but with wildly different sector times. Its crazy and the damned spreadsheet is still telling me I can go 0.4 quicker over the lap :crazy:

Another micro-step towards that goal....

18.020
28.640
24.202

Up half a tenth at the line. :dopey:

Wes has gone baresark again. Top man. 👍 Now bugger off into D1G will you? :P

Cheers mate! yep pretty much the same here Chris, I have 2 saves that are .008 apart at the finish line yet .3 apart at T3 :(

I'm done with this one and submitting, must have left a good .4 on track that i should have been capable of going by comparing my splits but Que sara sara :sly: back to MW3 for a week or 2, whilst I have nothing to race... good luck in the results guys :cheers:
 
I surrender! This is my last splits for this combo. 500+ laps I cannot get anymore out of this car.
