Bit disappointed with my experience with this car. Had a few 41.2 sector splits but always ended up hitting a wall in T3. After an hour long run I did manage to improve my time but not my splits.

If I wanted to change my submission w/ a different time what syntax to I use?

Just submit your new time the same as you did your first - the latest submission always replaces any previously sent. 👍

Thankz "V"

Had to dump a magic lap, quarter of a second better than this one, due to a tiny bump in the first corner. Wasn't even a good T1. Not happy.

Went back and managed to knock a tenth off my previous best though. New splits...

Just a little curious as I was beating my previous fast ghost down the home stretch and my brake came on by it's self and the throtle has been fluttering lately as well, whats the deal w/ upgraded peddles since it looks like there the culpret?

What do you use, a DFGT?

EDIT: This might be a good place to start.

Beyond that, I have a G25 Pedal set that I would let go for a beer or 2.

With a pretty good sector 3, only 2 tenths away from my ideal lap.
Will submit if I don't get any better times in the next 30 minutes.

Yah it's a DFGT and shes got a little berring growl when I turn the wheel but it's not that bad, heck it probibly doesn't have a berring as cheep as they make some of these wheels....... I might have to look into your offer. Did you upgrade your peddles?

 

[Vaxen]

Apologies in advance, but I won't be able to post results for week 74 until Tuesday morning, PDT.

Looks like I'm standing pat/waiting for the bell and decision, depending which metaphor we're going with. Still running, but have submitted with current splits. Very much looking forward to Motegi.

I been pounding for the last 1.5hrs and could only manage to skunk my ghost once and some evil demon slaped me down so I'm toast, at least I'm safe w/ already submitting. Good luk the antisapation will compell me to drink more barley popz

Off to TRM

Sorry, yes, you missed the deadline.

Was a tight battle to the line between you and Viper.

 

[Allibubba99]

So sorry for your lost times. I always submit my lap time every time I post new splits. This way I never forget!

Little bit mad at myself, had good times as shown on the leaderboard, but did not arrive home in time to post them.... At least I think my fellow div4 racers will be happy with me not posting

Gonna do the samething as Al now, will be posting my best time as soon as I ran it....

 

[anastasis14]

I submitted my times :56 and when i checked the leaderboards at :59 i didnt see my self in it One minute later I got the fetchbot accept reply and my name on the leaderboard appeared instantly

 

[w-g-e]

I just forgot to submit.

 

[EDK]

Posting your best time as soon as you run it is not a bad idea. Just be sure you carefully scrutinize your replay. I would hate to end up with a rash of DQ's because submitting s time becomes more important than checking a replay. I know you have to pull it up to view splits anyhow, but just want to be sure it gets checked carefully, especially on a week like this one.

 

[transamguy]

Personally, I probably will never submit my time until it's my best and final time. I have a very solid schedule for how i do things on mondays and i deviated from it. I typed the msg and went back to check my replay one more time (as usual), I got distracted and when i returned to my laptop, shut it down and went to bed for the day. I forgot to hit the send button. I am usually up in time to submit in evening but i slept in. It still burns, but having submitted a previous lap would not make me feel any better.
Great job this week, was some great competition and a fun race.

Great advice Kevin. I also forgot to mention that I check my replay 1st and it has to be clean before I post my splits and submit.

Sorry to hear about all the submission oversights, I know youz guyz were putting in the hours because it was so addictive.
