GTP_WRS Week 11 : Sweeping Willow

[_r_p_m_]

I just looked at the board and there are 13 guys plus or minus .1 from Mike's ( @Argon ) posted time in position #20...

Desperate to see the S3 times! No idea whether I'm on the money or not and it's so close. Very easy to drop a tenth in that last corner.

I picked up .4 in S3 alone earlier... it’s very rewarding if you nail it, massive loss if you don’t though.

It’s not as easy as it looks the final turn, I have been over a tenth faster through there. Like someone else said it’s very hit and miss.

I wasn’t very smooth in the run up to the final turn either that can cost a tenth itself, minimal tire scrubbing needed but I messed it up

 

[Koutch_Pro]

tried and tried and tried, but failed to get better times.

Well done all !

It really is, I could not match the S3 in the lap I submitted. I ran that lap Tuesday or Wednesday. I beat both S1 and S2 and thought if I just get through S3 clean I should be good. I was still close to .2 off. I am looking forward to seeing what the final laps are.

 

[_r_p_m_]

I'm only half a tenth off my best ever S3 in my submitted lap, so I am hopeful. Dropped two wheels onto the dirt on the exit though which was so annoying as I could see the hundredths falling away all the way to the line.

Liking the combo, this will be my first submission ever at Big Willow.

 

[Nerazzurri]

Looks like I’m going to have to give this combo one more try in the morning as I’ve dropped from the low 30’s on the table all the way down to 41st today

Damn you all for getting faster!

 

[Mini Stiggy]

New splits:
21.961
25.595

At the start I hated Willow. I kinda like it now

 

[mickyevs]

Exceeded my optimum from last report and I'm halfway to the full second I wanted. Really enjoyed tonight's run.
Before I took on Willow I did a few capaign runs at The Nurburgring and changed the cars around a bit. When I tried the BMW Power thing, what a difference, wow, that things fast.
So I thought wonder what it could do at Willow. First lap I beat my best Corvette lap by just over a second and I thought, hmmmmm, set that as my ghost lap and chase it down. It seems to have worked or at least be working, cos tonight I was consistently beating my Corvette ghost to the round house and within a couple of laps I'd beaten it to the line, eventually taking almost half a second out of the lap.
Now I've hit a bit of a wall again and cannot get ahead as I start to come down the hill after the round house. That turn is my next problem. I can get there ahead but lose it on the turn.
Of course then there's that last corner .........

22.931
26.651

Good luck all!

Final splits for me
22.233
25.686

Never did string that optimal lap together. Good luck everyone.

 

[RACECAR]

22.666
27.103

Found it very difficult to string one consistent lap as I was either slower in the first sectors but faster in the later or the other way around.

 

[racer_xis]

Couldnt run the Ww race event and still didnt learn how to take sector 2 ,will sibmit these

22.108
26.170

Are we aloud to hit the cones or put two wheels where the cones would have been? Just noticed on my pd I've two wheels on the dirt where the cones would have been. Turn 5. It says no contact with any object but we've the option to turn of cone markers.

Yes. The driving marker cones that you can turn on and off are okay to hit.

gained .009 should be 0.5 started to see faster 1st sectors after senting my pb but i've ran out of time. Will give next weeks a proper go.

Good Luck and

Edit: may not be able to up load my replay until tomorrow evening uk time

 

[Never2fast1]

Submitted with posts on board, just couldn't string the laps together, started seeing consistent S2 of 26.2, but for some reason couldn't get S1 under 22.5. . And if I did improve S1 then S2 would be off or I would screw up S3. I left at least .3 out there, but hey still did good for me. Loved the combo.

 

[MikeyLCR]

Scraped a bit more off, set myself what I thought was an unrealistic target time this week and now only a smidge away, 2 tenths off the optimum at the moment, my best lap hasn't got a single green sector in it

22.375
26.059

 

[Ren]

Last try for me tonight. Can't achieve my set goal by 12 thousands, very depressing, but will leave it now before I bite into my steering wheel or worse. Will most likely submit with this:

22.293
26.039

All the best to those who are still fighting!!!

 

[Argon]

22.357
25.799

Almost at my limit now and try as I might I can't find those missing tenths in sector 1, this may be it for me.

 

[Fastas]

I had a short run out on friday but not a track I’m a fan of. After retreating to the beer room for much more amusing antics, I haven’t been back.
I’m skipping this week too so, hopefully I’ll be back in for wk.13. Good luck all.

I usually pick them up or replace them as I go round on next lap, so nobody's the wiser.

 

[Argon]

Submitted with the times on the board and moving over to have some fun ice skating in Italy

Good luck everyone

Enjoy the beer Dan.

 

[Mires]

I'm done, another combo won over me. Not able to get a decent lap run, not to think about run few laps in a row. Few days ago, I think I wasn't that aggressive on throttle.

Submitted with splits on board, mr. Fetchy approved, good luck with banzai runs guys
