GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 56 : MR2 the Max

[Lou8ball]

Had an ace up my sleeve thru T1.

I don't want to play anymore... Lol!
Seriously amazing t1, well done for holding your nerve for t2 - I know I would have gone off the road with shock.

I just had a quick run - just got in from work, think the red bull I had on my break helped through t2

T1 24.440
T2 29.935

Poor t1, but nailed sector 2 and
3 was quicker than my current lap, for 0.03x at the line. Hopefully a tenth overall to find.

Wow, this D2 class is tough. You guys rock. Thanks to all for their setups this week. It helped me tremendously. This was the first time i could string together solid T1's and 2s, even though i've had better. But my T3 was barely in my top 3. This is all i got. Love this combo though, was a blast to run.

24.473
30.169

 

[sanmusa]

Argh, I just did a few laps with much improved T3, but no improvement on T1 and T2. Frustrating!

Great T2...impresses me alot. Now I know what can be done with a DS3 thru T2 somehow.👍

I'm just now getting some time to try this one; may not have a chance to put together something respectable in time to submit. But I also have a question about what modifications are allowed.

GTPorsche says

You can put everything but turbo/supercharger on the car.

and the original post says

Engine, Intake, Exhaust Modifications : All Allowed

but I guess this doesn't include engine modifications? Power is limited to 206 HP:

Power: 206 HP (Stock Car with Oil Change and Listed Power Upgrades). Make sure you change the oil and keep it changed to achieve this power.

but after oil change and upgrades to intake, exhaust and ECU, any of the engine "stage" upgrades put the power over 206 HP, even before breaking in.

Likewise for vehicle weight, which is limited to 953 kg:

Weight - 953 kg (Use of Ballast and Ballast Adjustment is Optional)

Stages 1 and 2 of weight reduction get me down to 953 kg, but stage 3 would make me lighter.

I'm assuming that engine tuning modifications (stages 1-3) are not allowed, but weight reduction is okay as long as I don't go below 953 kg. Or should I assume that I am free add any engine mods I like (perhaps forgoing exhaust, etc) as long as I don't go over 206 HP?

You have the wrong car.

 

[sjstuart]

You have the wrong car.

That explains it.

Thanks.

 

[transamguy]

want to make sure that i post correctly. When i PM the fetchbot, do i post T1,T2,T3 and Total. Or just total??

 

[btcanon]

Just Time: X'XX.XXX

 

[transamguy]

Thanks BT. Thats what i did. So does it calculate your T3 time based on your last forum T1 and T2 posted times? In which case should i always post my T1 and T2's from the lap that i am submitting? otherwise the T3 would not be accurate, right?

 

[btcanon]

Yeah, they'll get you for sandbagging if you do that! maybe...

but fetchy is a pretty smart little marvel.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

Remember when I first posted splits this week and said I was playing my cards tight to my vest?

Read them and weep.

T1: 24.130
T2: 30.030

Had an ace up my sleeve thru T1.

You have me well beaten with that Jack. Well done - must have felt good to complete that lap.

 

[Lou8ball]

Found half a tenth to the line, got slightly more front camber - at 2.7 now.

T1 24.343
T2 29.988

Had two or three 29.86x through t2, but can't make them stick. Im done for today, will have a final charge tomorrow before the deadline. Good luck all.

 

[Carlos Fandango]

You're killing me Louis looks like its between you and me for that last podium spot. You DS3 guys are going so well this week it's almost rude!!

I give up/I suck

Mass Effect 3 and I Am Alive have distracted me, that's my excuse

Great times, D2! Wouldn't have caught you up by much even with lots of effort 👍

 

[sanmusa]

Here is my tune for the WRS's MR2, please someone give it a try. Constructive criticism is always appreciated!

[sjstuart]

Now that I have the right car, here are my first set of splits:

T1: 25.245
T2: 30.845

Not terribly happy with them, but I may not have time to do any more.

 

[Tuesdaymops]

new splits:

T1: 24.534
T2: 30.529

 

[Vagabond]

T1: 24.130

Haha, great sector. 👍 Seen quite a few 24.1s but can't finish the lap. Best was 24.146 but threw it away cutting the first left in sector 3. Nice one carrying it to the end. Louis and Jon are going pretty damned well round here too - nice one mates. 👍

Got myself a good session in today - a couple of hours just blasting round here in this little plastic rocket was fantastic fun. Seen alot of good sectors go to waste but still managed to get a lap in with just over a tenth gain at the line...

24.242
29.866

As usual, Excel tells me there's another 0.1 in the 1st and 3rd sectors but I'm still pretty happy with the lap I think.

Using the same basic setup but with a couple of changes:

LSD 5/20/12

-25/-25
14.4/15.0
4/4
7/7
7/7
2.0/2.0
-0.09/0.00

BB 4/0 ABS 10

That may be my last run at this - will try to get a go tomorrow night but no guarantees. Good luck all.

Gave up long time a go, don´t know why but couldn´t get first turn right to many times, and got bored. My excuse...💡 online TT

Great times from Jack, LP_RAcer, Louis and Jon 👍

On my toes to see results tomorrow night and be careful with T3

 

[Windy_1238]

want to make sure that i post correctly. When i PM the fetchbot, do i post T1,T2,T3 and Total. Or just total??

Post like this:

t1 24.xxx
t2 30.xxx

You don't have to type T2/T2 just the times for T1 and T2

24.xxx
30.xxx

Final splits:

24.385
30.216

25.262

[jack5428]

@ Jon dont give up its all smoke and mirrors the splits board. yeah I did those sector times but you cant see my T3 sector time.

@Chris Thanks I mean its fun to have a red number you know and it is a miracle when you take T1 so well to get it to the line. Its one of those good things that sometimes occurs for me when I do TTs.

@Joao Thanks and yeah Ive missed the apex of T1s first corner and wont off the road and crashed the wall so many times.

@ Louis keep on going lower. I will drive again for sure. I really believe I can beat that lap and that I must to get to the line ahead of you.

 

[Cats_PJs]

Jack, that time is ridiculous.

Never figured out turn 1, I think my other two splits are decent though so I will submit with these splits.

24.532
30.198

D2 is getting out of hand lately, tons of excellent times on the board.

 

[Allibubba99]

Is this clean?????

Al

 

[jtv90069]

I think so Al, the wheels appear to be directly above the rumble strip. I don't like your chances of a fast lap with that line though

 

[LeftyWright69]

Finally found some time to knock out a few laps.

T1: 25.476
T2: 31.216

Looks like another track that doesn't like me

 

[CB750Kguy]

Al, that is a serious OH BLANK!! moment, lol.

I'm curious whether this is clean or not. After coming out of the tunnel just after Sector 1. I'm thinking not, but would like to be certain.

[jtv90069]

I believe it is clean. It is not touching the wall and it is on the tarmac.
