GTP_WRS (GT5) Week 89 : Rally de Roma

[Arianrhod]

I managed to get a good hour in with this combo this afternoon and this car is a monster! It needs a very careful driving style to keep it in check. I did tame it in the end and got a lap I think is worth putting in. I don't think I'll be catching you this week though Baron - great splits 👍

24.322
21.857

I did manage a few 24.2 T1s thanks to Chris' video but could never add a good T2 after it. T3 is the usual mystery but I kept it pretty calm there so I think its quite solid. This wil probably be my only chance to get a good run at this one. Good luck all

Does chassis reinforcement help on the car? I haven't added that yet.

I think it actually does, but once installed it took me a lot of time to get used to it....

I wonder how you final sector is racingworld,

Pretty fast

I see. With my setup, it won't make a difference.

Made a difference for me, went a second faster almost immediately

Pretty fast

I better get to work then

I'll buy the OCD car and try it on that. Don't want to mess with the one I've been using in case it doesn't work for me.

I can put mine on share if u want to try with it

Edit: Car is on share

That'll work as well. 👍

5 horses light of a picnic. Great tune Chris! I switched front camber to 2.4 and increased decel by 4 or 5 clicks. Dunno what difference that made though

25 laps or so done, could go quicker I suspect on full power but I doubt I'll get chance to run again after this eve. Will get me a cup of tea and have one last go.....

Small tweaks, small improvements.

Slightly better time at the line.

Finally at full power, put together a decent one...

24.331
21.774

Not the best first sector, lost a tenth there by drifting a little and running a few feet wider than I wanted. Submitting this lap. Pretty happy with it considering I've only got 170 miles on the clock!

Thanks again for the setup Chris, really worked well for me. I used 4/0 BB as I couldn't get on with any rear brake.

Thanks Chris, using a modded version of your setup.

Good to see you again Christina, some nice splits as well.

Matt, a few more laps and we'd have a battle on our hands.

I hope d2 starts showing up in the type of numbers we used to get, I think we used to have at least 7 drivers every week, ah the good old days.

 

[GTPorsche]

Thanks for letting me try your car Mamba. 👍 It did help me improve my times and see where my setup can be adjusted. I think I'll buy the Stratos in the OCD and put chassis reinforcement on it so I can more directly compare the difference it will make with my personal setup.

24.232
22.105

Edit: Turns out my setup was really awful on the car.

 

[nicnew]

I wish I head read pages 8-9 about chassis reinforcements :-(

Will not get another chance to run at this. Only got 1 hour in 2 x 30 min sessions. I need more time.

Good luck everyone ! !

 

[Allibubba99]

I had a 3 hour run tonight, had to quit midway for an oil change! But managed .5XX off of my PB after adding chassis reinforcement. I saw a .2XX in T1 so I know I can shave a bit more off! Question is, will I have time?

Nice splits there Al. 👍

I know excactly what you mean, I saw a 46.011, and was so suprised I just could not hold the car in the last corner, resulting in a slight touch against the wall

 

[w-g-e]

T1: 24.093
T2: 21.616
Just went a bit deep in the last sector.... ugh.

T1: 24.093
T2: 21.652
A gain of 6 thousands isn't really worth a new post, is it?

 

[Mamba]

Improving first sector but cant find the rhythm in the second sector I keep getting the wall on the exit

24.303
21.965

 

[GTPorsche]

Seeing a bunch of 46.2XX but just can't get the run I need out of the final corner to make them stick.

 

[praiano63]

I have a good lap with higher T1 and T2 but a very good final left , double right before the straight. I did several laps .300 in front of my ghost but this same ghost pass flying in this last part, can't reach it.
Just trying a bit more and i'll submit some news splits.

 

[GTPorsche]

Just noticed I need an oil change, so I might have to have another run at it right now. Did manage a faster lap though.

Splits of my current best.

24.248

[Mamba]

Not sure if I've hit my limit or what, I can't seem to get in a lap better than the one I had yesterday. I know I have a bit under 2 tenths to find but that is gonna take a magic lap. Im not sure ill ever get that magic lap, but you never know

 

[GTPorsche]

I'm hitting my limit as well now. Chasing thousandths at the line now.

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Got to try to string it all together today. Don't wanna leave the .300 out on the track that I'm losing on the last part of the track. Going for broke now, lol. One last Hail Mary!

Nice splits there Porsche, Im curious as to which set-up you are using? I might want to try it and see if I can get a good first sector
