Lost a bit in t1 and found a bit more later. Got one of my 4 tenths back at the line .

 

[Mr P]

Still have an issue with my shoulder but like a junkie left in charge of a chemists I couldn't resist and had to run some laps at Midfield, I suggested to the wife that some GT physiotherapy might be just what the doctor ordered? but nah I paid for those laps just as she said I would haha Might try some more masochism on Monday before the deadline
my best save so far has..

Great splits mcsq and close battles right across the board, GL all

 

[Thematic]

A really early thing again, which I think isn't ideal:
Had 230 km of futility afterwards. Looking at the figures, third sector was somewhat faster than the previous one, unlike what I guessed.

T1: 27.735
T2: 54.302

Oh. yeah. I dooded it.

Can you tell which one is 688gofasts/670gettintothegofasts?

gofasts = HP / gettintothegofasts = TQ

time for some fun...room open now

 

[EDK]

Backed out of a session and did an oil change and body rigidity restoration at around 300 miles, oil had been changed before and was up to snuff.

But immediately set these on first lap back.

Still working.

Kev, I was under the impression that body rigidity was a no go on every single event for the WRS? That's the main reason I never consider it not sure why? But I had BR in the same strictly disallowed adjustments like SRF

Ah well someday I will learn the rules are not universal.. just combo specific I suppose haha 👍

Key point is that I restored it, I did not improve it.

It's effectively the same as buying a new car.

 

[Mr P]

I didn't know that restoration was allowed without the improvement haha I usually just buy a new car after 500 km and sell the old one


But it's ok I know now 👍

Yeah, there are separate options.

Second oil change or restoration is ok.

Adding aero or rigidity on non tuning weeks is not ok.

This car drives like a fridge but it sounds pretty sweet.

the ring is more fun...but this is almost as addictive

 

[Thematic]

@EDK I have done refreshing in the past, but I never saw a change (power). I think Arcade mode doesn't affect the car's performance.
edit: online does, though

I just noticed the GNX is underpowered in GT6, it really had 300 bhp or so.
I can't get it up to 180 km/h in fifteen seconds, with oil change and exhaust manifold part that will invalidate your lap. "a quarter mile time of 12.7 seconds at 113.1 mph (182 km/h)" (source)

Submitted and accepted, Good luck tonight everybody. I left a tenth out there but I'm still happy.

 

[Mr P]

Submitted my lap from yesterday.. GL to all in the results

I probably had another .1 left also.. but whats the point when the guy up front is Aeons ahead That squidgy guy is just too damn fast! I say we ban him for a year or so

Seriously though he has some Jedi skills on track I gotta say

 

[EDK]

Heads up to everyone that the results thread for this event will not be posted tonight.

The results will of course be available in the leaderboard at deadline time, as they normally are.

Vaxen has said it may be as late as Wednesday before he is able to compile the results.

Seriously though, @danbojte was on my bumper for a good while in the race....but I am no alien, he has improved a lot!
