BTW: I think there is another way to check your splits than to watch your replay all over again. After your session in the screen where you can start viewing your replay and save it, just go on Session Results and you will see all your laptimes. Just find the one you're looking for (usually the best, so highlighted in green) and there you'll have all of your sector times. Best sectors are also highlighted in green (can be on other laps).
I'm not at home now, I'll post a screenshot later.

You are correct.

If you end a session and do not plan to run anymore, you can just grab the splits from that screen.

But if you go back for more, i.e. save your replay, then go back in to see if you can improve, you won't see those splits again. So if you go back in and don't improve your time, you will have to look at the splits in the library.

It's always a good idea to watch your replays anyhow, to make sure there are not any close calls. But for the purpose of posting updated splits, this should work fine. Just make sure you are actually watching your submitted lap replays.

Will hit it tonight after work! Good to have this back. Thanks @EDK for putting it up!

 

[Fastas]

First splits to post. I’m really struggling in sector 1 and can’t find a half second here,..yet.

to the WRS team for their continued efforts.

 

[shoenboggie]

No probs Jerome BB+2 or 3, I alternate 👍

I’ve been using +1 mostly, will give +2 a try, just need to be smooth when coming off of the brakes in the slower corners.

For anyone struggling with the first sector:

37.266
34.106

Quite a surprise that I was followed by 2 ghosts after uploading one and completing my first lap of the session.

I am using a G29. Does anyone know if you can set it up so that the clutch pedal becomes the brake?

 

[DDiamond]

Still recuperating from pneumonia...went in for a chest x-ray couple weeks back...ended up in hospital isolation, out now, but the docs still have me on restricted computer/game time. Splits suck, however, wanted to be a part of the first GTS WRS. Thanks, Admin for getting it underway.

Steven, when I put in a new brake spring, I just swapped the clutch and brake pedal positions. The wires will reach, just be careful.

For anyone struggling with the first sector:

Very clean! Do you mind if I ask what BB you're running? I've stuck with the default so far as I'm about as useful as a chocolate fireguard when it comes to setups/tuning

 

[munch2112]

So nice to be back! Been a long long time since I ran some WRS TTs! Nice to some familiar names here too!

First splits for me:

36.155
34.039

Just 6 laps run so far, but with my current unfortunate unemployed state, I’m sure I will be doing quite a few.

 

[DeuxMilles]

Hi,

the orange one is faster

35.742

BB 0, TC 0.

cheers,

After 5 laps

 

[Sjaak]

That's where I see how much time I'm still losing compared to my optimal laptime.

Do not know if you could see this in GT6 but for now it is nice to see what time is possible.
Together with the blue/red sector times,share function for PSN or youtube and getting credits for your endless laps,finally GT is on a point it reflexs 2017.

Nope, it wasn't possible in GT6. I usually noted down my best splits and figured out that way what my theoretical best lap was.

For anyone struggling with the first sector:

Thanks for sharing Mcsqueegy!
I think I’ve been trying to carry too much speed through the corners at the expense of exit speed.
I’ll give it another go soon. 👍

 

[Special_K]

Really struggling with the first sector, this is a messy lap but slightly faster.

What gears are you guys using for last corner of second sector and the final corner?

35.302
33.158

 

[mr_lab_rat]

I wish I would struggle with low 35s in the first sector

Let’s try this Fetchy

Loads of time left but its a start.

That was a lucky sector, I struggle to get under a .5 normally.

 

[Speedy6543]

Found some time in T3.
Still a couple of tenths out there in my perfect lap.

 

[Mr P]

Great turnout guys! Good to see some old ghosts from Christmas past in the list too

3rd for both. I also found it better to stay in 5th for the twisty parts after T1. I still have to lift ever so slightly through the bus stop, but I'll try trail braking through there instead. It may work as the car may be stable enough at high speeds to do it.

Just old Ron, I'm aiming for the ghost bit in a few years (hopefully)

 

[Mr P]

Haha It's Ideal then that some regular high speed WRS TT racing will keep the blood pumping good.. You'll be fine for quite some time mate! :tup:

 

[Mr P]

Speaking of Ghosts.. Where's Jerry?

@Sphinx get yer arse in here old man :tup:

 

[munch2112]

35.994
33.980

Still half a second off my optimal time, had a right mess up in the final corner on this lap... but half a second faster than my previous time!

 

[Mires]

36.120
33.828

Not the best splits (better than last ones), yet fastest lap to date.

PS: For those who want, there is a way to see if you hit the wall, or not. In the Race Settings / Penalty Settings on top you can set the wall collision detection on strict and wall collision penalty on invalidate time. As it seems it works well with slight tap of the wall.

Yet it is not official, to be sure, better check the replay before you submit your lap time. It is just the Aid tool to inform you when you tapped the wall in time you are hotlapping. ^^

Nice. A couple questions on that:
1) does it save that setting as default for the next session?
2) would it invalidate a lap that could be considered clean by WRS standards?
3) if 2 is true, I believe it disables the option to save a replay and check splits, yes?
