GTP_WRS Week 59 : Putting the GT Back in GT

[Duke of Pendle]

You can hit the loud pedal as hard as you like when your front wheels are in line.
This is what the fast guys do best - they are in a postion to mash the throttle earlier than us mortals

Nice splits there I'm still struggling getting consistant with this one - ran about 20 to 30 laps tonight and have something average for now but want to spend a bit more time with it before posting any splits.

This one is bringing back memories of the F40 at HSR Reverse (can't remember the exact WRS week offhand) but I'm just so much more thankful that the rear end of the Ford GT sticks a bit better.

slight improvement

19.827
40.326 (i know i could've done better here, really went wide on the first corner of T2)

[Imari]

Wow. Tracks I thought I knew but it turns out I have no idea. Very interesting combo this week.

First splits:

T1 - 20.103
T2 - 40.726

You need to watch out guys, I've picked up a lot of laps on the leaderboard because they've been done online.

Yah my first session I realized I was online >.< however my time has vastly changed so the time on the leaderboard is in no way indicative of my real offline lap.

 

[GTP Grevling]

My first splits:
20.241
40.693

 

[01GTP]

Enjoyable combo.

First splits for me.

19.981 (19.842)
40.373

 

[Jake]

sweet avatar, Kevin. I gave this combo a try but I totally suck. All the weight in the rear tends to throw me around a bit.

Kenny looks fast.

Jake. Thanks for fixing me up.

Kenny usually looks fast at HSR, but he's been grabbing a lot of podiums lately. 👍

 

[superwally]

Jake, Kenny, Kev. Anyone need a beer? Wheres George?

19.958
40.118

 

[GTP_DEVIE]

1/2 hour session got me splits of:

19.887

40.096

Dont think ill have time for another go but reasonably happy with this lap.

 

[steven]

Board initialised.

Sorry for being so late this week guys, RL hindrances from everywhere ...

Nice new avatar Kevin - counting down already I guess?

 

[Sureboss]

Right, I'm looking forward to jumping back in to WRS competition with this combo, HSR is quite nice to drive and I love the GT.

 

[CarBastard]

Well, I'm sending my time. I have to say it's a really though combo for new drivers, but I should've learnt something. I got very frustrated when I wasn't able to follow my last ghost so I guess that has to be my limit. A very hard week with a GT for the WRS, and a Viper for EYS2...jeez to much for someone that just begins to play. Good luck to everyone!

EDIT: Here are the splits of said lap:
T1: 21.181
T2: 42.260
A second is an eternity in motorsport, but being my first go at the WRS I feel proud of being just[\I] 1 to 1.5 seconds slower than people on higher divisions.

Blah...anyone else getting an obscene amount of dirty laps by the way? Like I've had up to 16 wall tapped laps in a row T.T

Interesting happening: I clipped the first berm while under heavy braking, however in that long slide and wall crash I managed a 19.415 and a 39.927 XD (highly dirty but it was fun!)

 

[01GTP]

Not an obscene amount of wall taps here but turn 1 is where it's make it or break it for me so far as I'm too afraid to ruin a good lap with a tap on the last turn.
Turn E (2nd to last) is where I lose most of my time to the Joker.
From there to the end of the lap, I just can't keep the speed he does.
I do keep improving though.

19.905
40.252

 

[LinPark]

First decent lap:

T1 19.989
T2 40.519

Thanks!

Yeah I know the feeling, lots of little taps there = ack, however it's not too hard to get it right, if you take the first corner of that section then "drop in" at the right point (feather the throttle very slightly on the turn, dont be afraid), you should be able to pull about 174 mph crossing the shadow on the ground immediately after the turn.

However I'm still having issues with T2. I can get faster than the top guy on T1 and T3, but T2 I'm still losing a good .3+ every single time. I've tried everything

EDIT Finally a decent one! (With a ton of drifting in T2, weird lol)

19.724
40.126

Yeah my mind = blown on how I got that T2 as well

Ohhh damn...please tell me that doesn't happen to everyone who logged into PSN. I did my time and sent it and some days later I downloaded the demo, I hope it doesn't passed to me, although it anyways wouldn't show because it's not top 100 material .
