GTP_WRS Week 3 : MCMLXXIII - MMII

[Cats_PJs]

Should I resubmit my lap to Fetchy? I sent him a pm a while back and haven't heard from him.

He's had a couple of minor bug-fixes in the last few hours - might be best to re-send it just to be sure, Baron. 👍

Thanks Chris.

A little more yo yo, but this time with a legit T3 so I'll take it to the bank:

29.665
56.132

HELP please. I've submitted twice and been rejected for following:

Make sure that the subject and body are in the correct format, as explained in the weekly threads.
Please start a new conversation.

I looked back at week 1 submission and format looks identical to me. I even tried copy and paste from wk1 to wk3. Had this problem on week 2 also but couldn't fix because I left it to the last minute to submit.


I also followed Oink's video (I think)

 

[Enex]

Replay submitted and accepted. Let's see how it goes this week.

For my skill-level I am pleased with my T1 and my T3, But would really like to join the others in D4 ... with a T2 below 0:58 I just don't know where in sector 2 to find .2xx and still keep my T3...

After a 3 hour session of hunting for that little bit extra I've manage a decent T1 but my T2 and T3 were as best as I could do

T1 29.632
T2 56.182

 

[Cats_PJs]

Fetchy is still ignoring me.

Maybe he doesn't like my t3 either, I found more time there today but couldn't hook it up.

 

[Nemo Niente]

Replay submitted and accepted - I still might find those .2xx tomorrow 👍

For the record: I never thought I'd learn to use a wheel and and a manual gear box. But I did - Thank you WRS, GTP and @Argon 👍

I believe this was with BB 3/1, still about 2 tenths off my target time

Submitted, good luck everyone.

 

[TayTheDay]

I'm starting to get frustrated from continually beating my t1 and t2 and losing it all before the line. I might just submit my current lap before I lose my mind!

29.996
56.866

That's barely an improvement over my last lap as far as splits are concerned but I'm up .4 across the line...

 

[AspecBob]

Time spread for this week.

Add Joost and I to the convo. We've seen an infrequent bug where the pm gets received by Fetchy but he doesn't even have the option to respond.

I must be missing something here...

29.800
56.433

I've seen a 29.5xx or two in T1, but this is my fastest T2 yet and it's still slower than many of the D2 guys.

Maybe it's the kink at the end of T2. I don't like kinks at the best of times, but here it's especially brutal as the car just wants to rotate around. Looks like I'm eating my words about preferring cars that oversteer...

 

[Turbo_snail]

Times!!

29.783

[TayTheDay]

Scratch my last post, I broke the cycle

29.916
56.416

One more session tomorrow I think... I have two laps within .03 of each other but the fastest gets pretty close to a wall.

 

[gm matthew]

Minutes after I post about struggling on this combo, I manage much better splits. Still last in D1, though.

29.700
56.250

Lost about 0.07 in T3.

Getting that the hair pin and the kink right are key at the kink I've been hitting the brakes at 50m mark dropping to 3rd at same time and trail braking slightly while using the right curb to hook the car round and drifting out to the barrier on exit it's giving me a exit speed of 84-88 mph which helps going up in to last section .

 

[Crozzlow]

Technique I am using for first turn is to lift, coast slightly, brake into turn and down shift to third when I get to about 80. Then accelerate, trying to maintain at least 70 to 71 mph through turn. Anyone care to share any techniques in T1. Also, is exiting last corner before straight in 2nd the prefered strategy?

 

[newbsta]

These times were on the raggedy edge. There is still time out there
