Good and good?
This is not directed @racer_xis and not whining, just an observation!

I've been a competitor and an official in real-world road racing. I feel your being way to liberal with what's considered out of bounds. OOB limit would be the white line defining the track side edge of the rumble strips, two wheels most stay on the track side of that line.

Any qualifying lap with a line as shown above would not count and if this was done repeatedly during the race penalties would be handed down.

When using the cones in the game they are actually placed in a position that helps define that limit so if you're constantly running the over you're very close to being OOB. I'm frankly surprised that a group run this well allows this.

All of that being said, the rules here are laid out very clearly so this is legal. This will not keep me from running here, just had to speak my mind. You folks at WRS do a great job.

Some new splits to test Fetchbot :)

27.086
19.170
28.557

Edit: Nope, Fetchbot still does not like me :(

I may be wrong & if the moderators say it’s fine then who am I to argue, but i’d say that with the angle of the car in the top picture the front wheel will be off the track within the next couple of stripes.

Wrong, i've taken the "dirtiest" photo possible, using slow motion pn replay and checking frame by frane

Fair enough mate! I wasn't suggesting you had sent a photo to make it look better than it was, I was just wondering if you’d checked the front wheel had stayed on track.
I can completely see how with the next bend in the chicane approaching you would’ve been steering back towards the track at the point the picture was taken. :D
 
Great splits across the board guys! Especially Iceman 👍 I wont be running this one again and will submit my lap with the splits on the leaderboard and see where it goes.. GLA in the results :cheers:

Hopefully week 4 will be posted tonight eh? :P:tup:
 
Holy 🤬 Batman! No wonder I'm so slow. Don't use anywhere near that much of the curb, left side in the grass.
:confused::confused::confused:
Part of my problem is I use to drive real cars and this would have resulted in crap on your tires and more than likely a spin. Oh well.
Yeah, you really have to use every inch that is allowable to go really fast. In real life you would never do that, but it works in GTS.
 
What's up with fetchbot? Trying to submit new times and it keeps telling me format not recognized!

:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
 
New times now that I have a clearer understanding of track limits but fetchbot won't accept, says wrong format.

25.352
18.160
27.583

TC: off
Torque split: 50/50
Brake balance: 1 to rear
Splits do not have to be submitted to Fetchbot via pm. Splits posted in this thread get picked up by Fetchbot automatically.

What you do need to submit in pm to fetchbot is your total laptime.
