GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 63 : Triple Play

[Twissy]

Yeah crazy wheelspin - I'm still mashing the throttle too much after that Merc from last week. Great opening splits James 👍 - I'll spend the rest of the week chasing your first timed lap.

19.103
17.197 (no way )
15.525

No idea how good my finish is - never have a clue round Laguna, just feels out of control...

Nice work Chris 👍

I think my first split was abit of a fluke really and not often do two people post a same split aswell, alot of throttle moderation going on or the rear just overtakes the front !

Hello guys

Been a long time since I last ran a WRS event. I did have a long break and the plan was to start playing again a couple of weeks ago. Decided to upgrade the firmware on my wheel and have really struggled with it since, this being the reason I didn't take part in the previous combos. Still not liking the firmware upgrade to this point

Anyways first splits

T1 21.116 (please close your eyes, ran wider than I wanted at turn 1 )
T2 19.452
T3 16.770

Have been running 21.8 T1s and have been quicker through T3, I have not seen better splits through T2 yet though.

Running the Rx7 by the way, a fun car that feels like the tyres are far to good/grippy for it. Fun combo though 👍

Good to be back

Using Kev's tune, feels great

 

[toymdngn]

Not fully broken in yet, but I'm getting smoother.

21.583
20.236
17.712

Anyone have any rough idea of how many miles the car needs on it before the engine is making full power?

 

[GTP_Plato]

An improvement but there is still plenty of time left out on track, the corkscrew being a killer at the moment

T1 20.880
T2 19.391
T3 16.674

That's me for the night, will have another run tomorrow

200 Miles.

 

[toymdngn]

200 Miles.

Thanks. Bob is 3/4 of the way done with the 300km :@: Grand Valley, so it'll be all good by the time he's done.

 

[Allibubba99]

RX7

2nd Try with Kevin's (EDK) tune with BB 3/4

[toymdngn]

Here's my ride.

A little drifting after the corkscrew. Turns out I had sport hards on it after a break in race.

 

[Windy_1238]

Here's my new splits. I lost some on sector 1, gained slightly elsewhere.
Can't seem to hit the 1st turn, after the S/F line, right.

21.588

[viper84]

First splits with the RX-7. The car is at 484 hp after 33 km.

20.998
19.744
17.043

 

[Koikeeper67]

I am going to take a shot at the RX7 it was a tuff choice as I love the 787 but the RX7 is one of my all time favourite cars.

First kick at the cat, not fully broken in stock set up

22.260
20.695
18.460

 

[Cats_PJs]

Running the 787B.

This thing is silly, just hanging on for dear life. Had some individual splits that were quite a bit better, but putting a complete lap together is nearly impossible.

19.371
17.347
15.912

 

[iGoFast]

Starting to see some progress with my tune.
I will post it shortly when i'm done tweaking.

20.621
19.235

[Gravitron]

First Splits In 787B ...

<rocket splits>

This is going to create some bad habits for the online race.

My thoughts exactly, which is why I'm going with the OTHER car. RX-7 TC for me, using Kev's online tune (not the offline mods he listed in this thread).

20.915
19.453
16.905

Anyone who likes the 787B and is available this Sunday for an epic online race, check my sig below.

 

[jammy21]

T1: 21.819

[Biffy]

First try with the RX-7. The thing doesn't like to turn!

T1: 20.774
T2: 19.327
T3: 16.981

T1: 20.827
T2: 19.343
T3: 16.744

T1: 20.745
T2: 19.367

There we go

 

[ASH32]

I'm using the RX-7 too, it's not broken in yet either. First splits:-

20.985
19.533
16.671

Quite a few mistakes but it is early days yet. I'll post a picture of my ride later on but it's nothing special.

 

[GTP_Plato]

I was hoping to get some time on this today but it doesn't look like it will happen. I may try and have a go tonight if I haven't had to much to drink while watching the football

Still trying to find an ideal setup for my wheel though where the SPR isn't a factor

 

[steven]

This question might have been asked before, but can I pick the TC Mazda if I didn't buy the DLC pack?

 

[ASH32]

This question might have been asked before, but can I pick the TC Mazda if I didn't buy the DLC pack?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure you'll need the DLC.

 

[EDK]

This question might have been asked before, but can I pick the TC Mazda if I didn't buy the DLC pack?

You'll need to have purchased the DLC to use the car.

 

[Kelly]

787B for me, beasty!

19.637
18.004
15.904

Still loads for me to gain here just need to get smoother and run the engine in a bit more.
Might try the other car... might not, will see how I feel after work

New splits....

19.782 seen a .3 here but shat myself
17.709
15.647

 

[steven]

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure you'll need the DLC.

Thanks 👍 I'll try to find a friend to borrow it from if that's possible.
