GTP_WRS Week 10 : Gazoo Samba

[Doodle]

First splits. The first and last sectors were pretty weak in this lap. Brake balance +5

[Mires]

Let's kick-off the Carnival

30.758
1:00.091

There is one goal I'd like to achieve, but i'm not sure if it is possible for a driver of my skills - would be tough, but I'll try hard (hope for more wheel (controller) time ^^)

Edit: forgot to add my ride, nothing fancy, random stuff, but I like ^^

 

[Maique]

Another try... some improvement at the line...

33.494

[Nerazzurri]

I’ll take this as a starting point for the week. Still loads of time to make up, especially around turns 1&2, but it’s coming together slowly.

Shaved a bit off, I can still see another half second there!

On top of that, after reviewing my lap I realised I am not using the whole track, I should be on the ripple strip more!

 

[monoha]

Not sure what I think about this combo, but it will probably grow on me.

First small session

29.930
58.436

Don't think I can get more out of sector 1, but definitely sector 2!

 

[racer_xis]

First try on second day with wheel

30.475
58.797

6 tenths above optimal

 

[MikeyLCR]

First stint at this, always find Interlagos a real struggle, I mean I like it but you know when golfers say certain holes or courses "suit their eye"? Well almost every corner doesn't suit mine they all feel slightly off, hopefully I'll learn as the week goes on.

30.885
59.640

 

[Argon]

29.994
57.893

Finally starting to see some light with the approach through the various corners but still plenty to do

You have to join a VERY, VERY long queue to beat @Speedy6543 , great to have you in the WRS

 

[_r_p_m_]

Fun combo

30.103
58.395

if this is my submission the replay cuts it pretty fine at the line, but you can see the time. V. annoying.

Haha! Welcome 'little' brother.
Finally got you in here. You'll have plenty of fun here I'm sure.

 

[Espial]

First 15 laps for me. I managed to string together an ok lap but still some time left to gain.

30.211
58.394

I like the track and the car handles surprisingly well, even on SH. I think I'm gonna stack up some km on this one.

Oh: TCS 0, BB +5, and 3rd gear all the way through the infield.

 

[Turbo Racer 48]

32.135
1:02.146

First splits for the board after first short session ....lots of time to find as both sectors had messy entrances into key corners compromising exit speed. BB+5.

Completely new track to me - not run any laps on it or done circuit experience until today so its going to be a learning week..........relying on the excellent advice from my team mates especially @munch2112 and familiarisation sessions on circuit experience.

Great combo - car suits it and just like Suzuka I really like the flow of the track and its challenges......Interlagos is a great addition to Gran Turismo.

Also given track is new to many the no tuning approach means we can concentrate on running lots of laps which I think will be very necessary here.............

 

[MikeyLCR]

Starting to see a little improvement

Update!

[Maique]

I am trying to improve my line... and also using the rumble strips a bit more...

Use them a LOT more

 

[Nerazzurri]

Still needs a lot of work but the lap time is coming down nicely

Are sports hard the default tyres for this car? Just realised I never checked the tyres on the car when I set my time and I'm not gonna be near a PS4 for a few days so it's gonna bug me till I know!

I’m pretty certain they are mate

Thanks. Was getting worried as my time seems unusually quick this week!

Yes they are sports hard 👍

Still trying to get S1 figured out.

Getting much more comfortable in S2, except for that 2nd hairpin...

Edit: forgot to add, @Iceman's tip about 3rd for the hairpins seems to be the ticket 👍

 

[Maique]

Use them a LOT more

I will try.

 

[BigDawg_1281]

I will try.

If you look up replays on GTS, under my PSN BigDawg_1281... I have a replay of me driving a Gr4 car at Interlagos. It will give you an idea of how much curb to use

Thats awesome. If I recall, Small_Fryz and Large_Fryz (Dion's dad) raced together very early on in the WRS, IIRC.

We're all family here bros
