GTP_WRS Week 3 : MCMLXXIII - MMII

[AspecBob]

FINALLY! I've been trying for three days to improve and couldn't do it. I had changed my BB to 5/1 and somehow had the impression that it was faster... But the only place I was better than my ghost was in the first turn of sector 2. When I changed back to 5/5, things started happening... although it still took a while to achieve a better lap. Almost binned it very stupidly also, by going close to the right wall down the S2 straight (being distracted by my ghost or something silly like that)!

29.717
56.733

Still a bit far from my ideal lap, I guess, but I'm used to that! Submitting.

EDIT: 0.24s at the line.

EDIT2: Couldn't help but try again for a bit... was ahead by over 0.2s at T2 once, lost the car between the last 2 turns

@Gravitron of @JoostBaksteen I just posted my replay which was excepted, but then in celebration I posted again then it come through as rejected because I didn't attach a replay, should my time still be ok?

 

[Teamsreth]

Submitted and accepted. Willow springs tonight then.

 

[gazleton]

I had a 55.81x at the end of at T2 but I slightly tapped the wall. I died a little inside after I finished the lap out.

Are you saying you replied to the Reply from Fetchy that you were accepted?

He will reply with a "Rejected" message, but it's your initial submission that was accepted which counts. You only need to submit with a new replay if you improve your time and want to update your submission.

Yesterday I did this one for a while, no improvement. I saw a better 0 s speed (167..168), that's all. I think I did the submitted lap with HUD off last Thursday.

 

[Barra333]

Most of my laps started at 164-165 at the line, 167-168 on a good run. I tried to run the last sector properly each time so that I didn't choke on it when I was on a good lap. Would often turn around and try again if I got tail happy out of the last corner though. The lost time in going back 3 corners was much better than starting a lap and losing 3 car lengths on the ghost by turn 1.

Didn't get another go at this over the weekend, such is the price for having friends over and enjoying life

Submitted and accepted to Fetchy, good luck everybody and see you at the races on Wednesday!!

From the race regulation page:

• Tuning: The following tuning parts are allowed:
  
  • Sports Computer
  • Exhaust Manifold
  • Intake Manifold
  • Sports Catalytic Converter
  No other tuning, custom parts, weight reduction, ballast adjustment, or chassis reinforcement are allowed. We can verify these things from the replays.

I read the specification, but the text I understand so that weight reduction, ballast adjustment are allowed ? :-(

Read it again. It is clear as day and specifically mentions no ballast or weight reductions.

No being the keyword here.


Ahhh yes.. the Tree.

so why is allowed at the end? So what is allowed? I guess I got it wrong? thanks

Posting my slower splits with quicker lap time.

Over a full tenth slower than my fastest time which proved to be dirty!

 

[RoeszaGT]

Not the best TT i did but it was lots of fun to drive around whit this car and i'm looking forward to the three races on wednesday. Hope my time is around my handicap. Fetcy did accepted it and it is clean. I think i was to scary for the walls there was everywere space enough. 👍

 

[ItsAllAboutWins]

Your time of "Sandbagger" for week 3 has been accepted.

Now we wait.. Good luck everyone making last minute runs. Hope I got what it takes to make my first ever podium in the WRS.. With 110+ people none-the-less.. 👍

Haha that's funny mate, I posted an exact t2 as you're old time a couple of days ago but my rear was scarily close to the barrier exiting the kink. Then like you, I updated with slower splits but quicker time over the line

Good luck everyone, I'm excited to see how I get on in my first TT

 

[Allibubba99]

My final splits. Off to the on-line races!!!! Oh and week 4 too!
