I've had the same thing, finished my lap and logged on to see how I'd done and I was on the leaderboard, although I've notice quite a few GTP'ers on there, how does this stand? Will we be disqualified for this?

I seem to be one of them this week. :grumpy:

What I did was get there whilst Signed In online, get rootbes replay, sign out, chased that replay for a while, stop, Cancel when the game errors on uploading the time, save ghost, go to My Page, watch my lap (the one on the board), save my game, Sign In, go back to the track, and find myself on the leaderboard.

I thought I took enough precautions but I may well have forgotten something in the weeks (months) I haven't been doing WRS.

My apologies either way.

And on lighter news, jimantonic has Finally broken the one minute T2 time, time to break out the champers! (Although it wasn't on my fastest lap!)

T1: 23.327
T2: 59.995

As far as I remember Jim but please don’t quote me on it, I don’t think Kevin disqualifies you for a mistake and showing up on the leader board, I believe he asks that you do another lap be it slower or faster and submit that one, not the one that’s on the online leader board.

But I’m sure if Kevin gets the time he’ll make it clear.

Phillip.

Phillip is exactly right, just please submit a different lap. 👍
 
I did what I thought was impossible for me, I dropped below the minute mark at T2 :). Turn 1 I shaved off a tenth and a half by staying straight longer then diving, making the second half of the turn much straighter. Then around the long bend I did not brake and kept smooth in 3rd.

T1- 23.335
T2- 59.766

Amazing splits, Nish. I'm impressed 👍

Well, l don't think my times will improve so I'm submitting. Many thanks to all the WRS team for the amazing work in running such events. I really had much fun in joining these last races and I look forward to seeing you all in the long awaited gt5.
 
Some bad times, but just felt like one last go was necessary.

T1: 0'24.654
T2: 1'02.696

I just don't have the energy to compete. Good luck to everyone, and thanks to the OLR team.
 
T1 - 23.202
T2 - 59.682

I messed up these pretty good splits (for me and div. 3)

Last two corners were terrible as usual! 👎

Hey SEMS, Great to see you back!
 
Updated splits from 2nd session. Still very frustrating! :banghead:

T1: 23.278
T2: 59.589

Lost over a tenth in T1, but found a couple in T2. Now to piece it all together, lol.
 
I just found it interesting to note that even though I never logged back in my lap was still recorded online. What I did was to:

Log on to get a replay
Start the Arcade and load the ghost replay
Log off
Start racing

It seems that when you log off it still takes a few minutes before you are actually offline.
 
Submitted with current splits on the board.

Thank you EDK, Sjaak, Vaxen, and the rest of the ORL team for all the great races in the past 107 weeks.

Thank you to JoostBaksteen, Steven, Alba. for all your hard work on the leaderboard

Cant wait for all the great combos coming in GT5, see you all then
 
Number 53 to finally split some posts on the ultimate Prologue combo.

23.745
1'01.751

[no comment] :)
 
Very small improvement at T2, a bit more at the line.

T1: 23.188 (exactly the same as I had before last splits :))
T2: 59.786
 
Can't believe it ,this is the last day of the WRS in Prolouge.A huge thanks to everybody from A-Z what a blast this was .So finally I can't believe I will be saying this but.
See You Guys in GT5 :lol:

I always grab replays by going into the "Rankings" area on the main screen. From there, you can save the ghost replay for uploading later, and you can also watch the lap. It's too easy to accidentally run an online lap if you sign on while in the race screens.

I set the deadline as Tuesday so that everyone can run right up until the GT5 release. 👍

I normally go one step further - I have two accounts. Obtain replay on my non-GTP account, then copy to memory stick, then copy from memory stick back to GTP account. A little bit long-winded :dopey: it's more to prevent accidently over-writing or losing replays, especially when checking other people's laps.
 
T1: 23.744
T2: 1.00.774

After 3 clean laps out of 5 this is all I came up with.
I am yet to decide whether I will bother doing any more.
 
Came home early unexpected today,and whas really happy to know i had at least 45minutes to 1 hour of time to do my final session.... :)

First 45 minutes i came really close to beating my own time on 4 occasions... :nervous:

Than in my best lap ever untill 2nd to last corner(i whas at least 1.5 tents up on my best lap.... :crazy:)the message came up on screen that it stopped recording replay...I was like "whaaat" lost concentration and ruined my lap... :grumpy::grumpy::yuck:👎👎

So thats it for me as i am completely pis... off...

But than i got the e-mail "your copy of GT5 is out of the warehouse and being send to you now..." 👍👍👍👍

So the chapter Prologue has been completaly closed for me today... :)

Submitted with these splits...:

T1:0'23.046
T2:0'59.129


Thanks to all who made this WRS so much fun all this time... 👍👍👍

Can't wait for WRS-GT5 to begin... :)



spy.
 
Here is my split:

T1: 0'23.382
T2: 1'00.482

I can definitely do better but i am running out of time :(

So i will settle for this as my second time trying.
Submitting my time right now.



EDIT: OOOPS, never mind, reading the rules, i just noticed that the run must be done off line...
Therefore i shall run again tonight and record a off-line Ghost.
Thankfully i have more time until tomorrow ;)

Hopefully i will beat my time and record a more decent run ;)

Ops didn't notice that ,submitted early :grumpy:.Anyway should be an interseting battle in D3.
 
I couldn't just let the last GT5P WRS go by but only had time for 1 quick session... Mann what a fight... I'm glad to have 2 clean laps of the 8 laps I ran, but because I became very careful not to spin of my speed is not nearly where I want it to be... anyway, here are my splits:

T1: 23.490
T2: 1'00.576

The last sector is the worst and I'm wondering if Steven will catch me before the line :P
 
New and defiantly last splits for Prologue.

23.205
59.787

Thanks to all the competitors, the leaderboard team and the OLR team for all they have put into the series over the last couple of years.

I had a blast and look forward to yet another WRS series.

:cheers:
 
Last session,worse splits,but gained couple of tenths at the finish line.
Seems to become the story of my life at Fuji,when the first two sectors are running smooth,the last one is rubbish....and the other way around.
T1:23.335
T2:59.718
Hope to see all of you in a couple of weeks with a fresh new start!
Thanks for organising.
 
Submitting with the splits on the board.

This was a great end for WRS on GT5P. Thanks & shout to all WRS organisers.

See you all in GT5!
 
Shaved a healthy chunk of time off, don't think I could match this lap again so submitted.

T1: 23.343
T2: 59.716
 
Seeing as how I voted for this combo, almost(wanted bb/fuji but free run) I will sub.

I've had a few sessions early on in the week but nothing spectacular so I haven't posted splits yet :dopey: 59.70 T2 on my current fastest lap, have had a few 59.5's. I'll post proper splits and sub tonight.

Back in a bit then and a big :cheers: :cheers: for Kev and all the staff for running a smooth wrs throughout gt5p.
