Thanks Jack, likewise. Not as fast as it looks though, as I stopped for a bite to eat in the last corner and it took me a long time to get my seatbelts done up again :sly:
 
Now this is FUN!

24.721
31.442


24.788

T3 makes me think of an old Paul Simon song "Slip Slidin' Away". So much time to be had there.

Thank you very much Firecracker!

I should take a picture of the leaderboard because this is the only time I'm leading Div. 4. I have a distinct feeling it won't last much longer.:)
 
New splits, my wife is just shaking her head at me over my reaction to my OT.

D4 is a ton of fun and nice to see all the new guys pushing everybody! Just wait till I figure out turn 1!

Had a better run, threw away a 54.5x in the final sector :( hopefully will get another one, none of my other attempts have been that quick though.

24.427
30.282

Will have another go over the weekend. Hopefully a tenth and a half overall to find, and I'll be pleased.
 
Had some "study-hall" time but couldn't transfer the knowledge to the seat.

Back to the computer/books! :)
 
Final splits for me

T1: 25.160
T2: 31.047

Was quite pleased with these till i saw everybody else's time. Dread to think what my times would be like without Chris' tune.

Loving the car: track combo though.

Thanks Al.
New Splits:

24.596
30.874

This is with stock tune w/ some transmission work. I think I'll try the tunes that are posted soon.

I don't think that I can emphasize how much fun this combo is. :D
 
Using Edk's tune from the start of this thread but i have stock wheels, so the gears aren't quite the same.

24.776
31.181

This car is an absolute blast on this track!
 
Hey Al, we have some div 4 guys dialing in the track with some really great splits, this is going to be a close week!

Nice splits T-Boat and Nine

Somewhat technical question for those smarter than me...
I saved a replay, then went to watch it and it's showing the SECOND fastest lap that I did, not the Fastest! What gives?:irked:
On the list of recorded laps in the replay list the time in the top right corner is the fastest lap. But that's not what's on the replay.
What am I doing wrong?:confused:
Thanks

It shows the fastest time you had run up to that point. You are actually seeing your fastest lap. Look at the splits as they light up.

Nothing at all! Your replay is showing the previous best lap time because your current best lap is not finished yet, you are watching it!

Hah! Is it a little wrong of me to hope that the secrets of Turn 1 elude you?

Thanks Ryder!

Ahh! That makes sense! Thanks.
 
How the heck are you guy's pulling the 24.xx t1 splits? I just can't seem to get below 25 without running off on turn 1. :mad:
 
After a multi-night saga of pedal repair (and destruction...), I'm finally back up and running with my g25 pedals for now (ClubSports are broken until I get a new load cell :().

Feeling pretty good about this run, I might work on it a bit more tomorrow night, but I'm gone all weekend so this is likely what I'll submit.

24.270
29.905

And here's my tune: http://www.gtdata.net/view_tune.php?tune_id=94
 
Every attempt at turn 1 over 107mph puts me into the wall.

Just have to get through as fast as you can without scrubbing off too much speed or going off course.

Nothing like having a faster time going and losing it because the throttle decides to not go 100%. :(

I've carried more 107 through a bunch. I think I saw 109 once too. The problem is that after I see that, and my first split is a 24.4xx, I get too excited and either screw up t2 or just crash altogether.
 
Gonna try this out, I'll post a tune later if it goes well, I'll post a flipping MR2 if it doesn't. :lol:
 
I've just realised that I've not weight reduced my car.
Not that it'll make much difference to my times, but still, can't beleive I missed this!
