Finished for this week. Slightly ragged in turn 1 and 3, .100 went there - from then on it was mere fractions. Unknown if I'm getting T5 right though (Probably not!)

19.483
34.417
49.250
1'12.367

Max of .150 or so left out there to T4 which I'd probably be chasing for a thousand miles, hopefully I'm not too far behind the other guys up there on the board in the last sector! :cheers:

Very ordinary last sector, but other than that I'm pretty happy with this one. Helluva fun combo.

:cheers:
 
Had to have one more go of it...

19.562
34.945
49.712
1'13.195

Ran a few sub 113.10s, but couldn't match one up with my best final sector effort. All the same I'm pretty happy with this time. Maybe a brief chance tomorrow morn before I leave town for the week, but submitted and accepted in case I don't.
 
Submitted with these splits:

19.496
34.396
49.213
72.296

Lost some time at the turn right after T4 as I got excited, but I cannot reproduce the splits again.
Good luck everyone.

Wow, great splits Ian. 👍

It was fun racing you earlier today. The 2-stop vs 1-stop between you and @MadMax was great to watch. :cheers:
 
I finally nailed my ideal lap, then checked and realized it's dirty by an inch in T2. :dunce:
I'll give this another session and try to nail it, but that Daytona looks like a lot of fun too. :gtpflag:
 
Can anyone please confirm, clean or dirty?

there is only one wheel in contact to the track limit and one is in the air i would assume it dirty .But wait till someone else confirms .
How do you get that will off the ground :P
post the sideview too
 
I think it's clean. If a tyre is airborne it is clean if it's in line with the track.
I had a lap like that but it was much closer so I binned it.

Looks clean to me, but if you're running that wide at turn 3 I found it slows you up a bit - did the same thing on my fast lap

You're not alone...couldn't login yesterday evening - missed the race. Today I was able to log in for about 20 min and could improve 1/10th at the line, but had better splits within the 5 laps I did.
Server maintenance is announced for tomorrow evening but actually I can't even open the playstation.com website to check for news.
Got some time to improve too. Hope it works again soon.
 
I don't have high hopes for this week... Couldn't find the time to put in the hours for a better laptime and now that I have the time, I can't log into PSN *sigh*
Will only be able to join you guys again week after next, as I'm flying out to Malawi on a business trip tonight and only returning on the 2nd of September... *double sigh*

Typical my luck but in the seat again when PSN works. But first F1
 
Supposedly, PSN has had a distributed denial of service, which is why it is down

Slow clap, congrats, etc to those who think this is a worthwhile exercise.....

PSN gets my personal gold reward for the most hacked highly commercial online service. Disgusting that they are not able to secure their service.

Hope it's on soon. Won't find time in the evening and tomorrow too. Yep, watching F1 instead - wouldn't do if PSN worked ;)

Unless that somehow kicked you off track (or distracted you sufficiently to cause a crash), there's no problem. You don't have to be signed in to have Fetchy accept the lap.

Ohh no!! I let go of the throttle when i saw i was logged out. Did not know that Fetchy would accept the time when i was offline.

Crap!!

When I did my initial qualifier, one was online, the other was offline, I don't know if he would have accepted it when it started on but finished off, although the evidence I've seen implies it'd be fine.

Still, you did it once, no reason to think you can't again. 👍
 
I'm gutted as I won't get another session :( My best splits combined would be .250 secs (over the whole lap) faster than my current ones... I'll have to submit my current lap and hope that noone appears with faster splits out of nowhere.
