GTP_WRS Week 44 : Route 5-86

[Cats_PJs]

31.699
1'01.616

Still .1 to get in the first two sectors. I sopped up every morsel I could find in t3 though, so this might be hard to beat. Of course, there is a lot of week left.

 

[Animera]

I've seen a .397 T1, so I'll keep on trying.

 

[RuddRacer]

32.634
103.367

It's a starting point, going to try the Sprinter next.

Question: What is the in race RA function?

 

[RuddRacer]

I did an oil change before the upgrades on the Sprinter. The 407pp is with PL @ 96.8%. Do I reduce it down to 96.2 or should I buy a new car and start over?

 

[mr_lab_rat]

Doesn't make a difference when you do the oil change.
But you need to apply the right upgrades to the right car.

31.777
1'02.010

Also the splits need to be 1'0x.xxx or 6x.xxx format

 

[RS__96__oO]

Wait. What?!

I ruined a 31.38 split and my t3 also was better on former laps, so around .250 left

 

[RuddRacer]

I am pretty sure I got it right. Lvl 3 Eng & Semi racing exhaust to the Sprinter.

It was my understanding that the oil change gives x% increase based on HP of the car.

Until I get some clarification I will stick to using the Levin. Is this the proper place for this kind of thing?

I have no idea what happened in T2, but T1 is still eluding me somewhat... Only managed a best of .484

 

[Animera]

Sector 1 in the Levin.

It shouldn't matter when the oil change is done, I always do mine first. Those are the proper upgrades so I'm not sure why the pp is off.

In other news:You guys are out of your minds this week.

 

[Meister Fetz]

@RuddRacer if your car is older it might need an engine overhaul to get the original power back - then another oil change

 

[RS__96__oO]

I might be done.

I think I might give up too after seeing that T1 split seriously, how...?

Improved by 0.16 on my end, using 3/5 bb now but I think I need to revisit that

My heart was also pounding during that lap, so i left a bit in t2 and t3. Maybe it was just luck in that sector, maybe it is the brake balance 1/6 are you using the levin or the sprinter?

RA are the adjustments you can make while being on track, you have to assign a button to it. Brake balance, TC, and some more things can be adjusted that way...

Maybe a bit of both 👍 I'll probably have time for one decent session on the weekend (using the Levin), I'd be happy with another tenth on my current lap but we'll see how that goes!

Can't have you winning too easily now

 

[Ed_Night]

-0,189 faster than my old splits

Had some 1'01,2xx splits, so i hope to find another 0,1s.

[mr_lab_rat]

Might as well post splits from yesterday to get me closer to the D2 leaders. Still looking for couple of tenths in the first two sectors and a lot more in the final one.

31.813
1'01.826

 

[GTP_randy]

Have seen a couple of 31.8's but can't hold on to the lap. My sector 2 needs to be alot smoother. To much flinging going on.
32.016
1:01.883
But having fun in the Sprinter Trueno.

 

[bocowes]

Still sticking with the Sprinter at the moment, BB 4/9 seemed to help eek out a further 3 tenths at the line. Still getting sector 2 wrong somewhere though as I'm still down on a lot of people's T2's.

31.885
1'02.252

 

[RuddRacer]

Thanks to all for their feedback. I sent a PM to MadMax and got all my questions answered.

I overlooked the stated HP limit and was only trying to match the upgrades, PP and power limiter settings.

 

[Ettick]

Seen a few 29.7 sector 2's but still nothing less than 31.7 in sector 1. @Animera's video just made me even more confused

 

[alexamenos]

In the Levin, 3rd sector stinks. Gonna give the Sprinter another spin later.

Edit: been at least 3 tenths faster through the last sector. If I can knock two more tenths off my current time I'll be pretty happy.

 

[Bertracer]

New splits
218 on the clock

32.130
1.02.947

 

[Animera]

31.467
61.233

And a .112 gain at the line.

 

[Meister Fetz]

and there she goes my lap time goal - new one now

31.653
1'01.586

EDIT: To me it's the Levin. Did the exact same amount of laps, but the Sprinter left my lap time board today...I'm about .2 faster in the Corolla

 

[Cats_PJs]

Haven't run the Levin yet, do I really need to switch cars?

 

[Meister Fetz]

To me it's a tiny bit faster in all sectors, guess thats depending on your personal taste + never underestimate the power of the Placebo Effect

 

[RS__96__oO]

You don't need to, my current lap was in the sprinter and for me both cars have quite the same pace except for the last sector where the sprinter feels faster due to more traction 👍
