  • At Least 2 Tires must be in contact with track at all times (See image below).
    • In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires in-line would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
    • If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
  • Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track.
  • No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible.
  • If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty.
  • No hybrids.

  • Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules.

Race Specifics (Rules for This Specific Event):

  • White Rumble Strips, Red and White Rumble Strips and Tarmac are Track Surface. No other surfaces are track.
  • The various green and/or yellow sections are not track.
  • Rumble strips with grass between track and rumble strips are not track.

Steward's Comments:
Now that we ran out of RCZ's, we're moving onto the Corvettes. :sly: This is a simple track layout, and the car is a great sounding right tire fryer. I gave you the medium shoes to help with wheel spin, but it still doesn't really want to turn. Good luck with that.


Saving Replays, Viewing sector times and Submissions:
  • You need to make sure you use the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay' (See pic below).
  • Before saving your replay ensure that you continue running after completing your fast lap until at least the end of first sector. This will ensure you have a complete replay.
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Library' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replays' option.
  • While viewing your Replay, enter the live timing screen to view your sector splits. You will need to do this after your car has passed the sector markers to see it listed.
  • Simply post the splits that are shown in the live timing screen, and our Fetchbot will parse them and add them together for your total sector time.
  • When saving your fastest lap replay please ensure that you watch the replay to the end and that it displays your full lap time. Any replays submitted that do not show the posted lap time will result in a DQ.
  • Remember - When you submit your time you're also declaring that your run is 100% clean. We request replays for the purpose of verifying to all those concerned that the drivers claim is correct, which in turn safeguards the integrity of the driver, and just as importantly, the WRS. The golden rule is to check your replay before submission. If you’re still unsure, check it again, ask for a second opinion and if you’re still undecided, run the lap again.

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 67 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):
  • Please submit your FULL LAP TIME in the following format on a single line:
    X:XX.XXX
    (Example-) 1:10.100
  • You will get an automated response within 15min, letting you know whether your submission was accepted, or if you had an error.
  • For those of you who were used to submitting replays on GT6, you no longer have the ability to export the files.
  • If you have an error, don't panic. Just review the instructions for submission and submit again. If you are having trouble and cannot figure it out, please post your question in the race thread.
  • Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week 67 Get Entry" and any text in the body.
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week 67 Remove Entry" and any text in the body.
  • If you want to submit multiple times in the week just reply to the conversation with your new time. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • The deadline is Monday, March 11th 2019 11:59pm GMT
  • If you are unsure of the deadline try this site.
Why Use GMT?:
GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the centre of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.

Replay Checking:
  • Division winners and overperformers will be required to submit a replay via the GT Sport Share function for verification AFTER Unofficial Results have been posted.
  • Participants will be expected to check each others' replays for cleanliness, for replays marked in the Results thread as (Replay Verify Required).
  • Video/Youtube/Twitch replays are not accepted as a form of verification.

So. Sweet.
Seriously this drift challenge I mean tt combo is so crazy fun. Holding full throttle through the back 'straight' will never get old. I've spent more time watching replays than driving! And Corvettes have always been my favorite cars, the C2 one of the most beautiful cars of all time :cool:

Have you only tried the toggle on the screen, or have you selected/deselected in the Advanced Driving Options menu?

I have my ghost permanently disabled, I am in the same camp as Lucas on that one.
I saw a post in a different thread, someone else had the same problem. All you need to do is go into the advanced options and set ghost to on. After that all should be fine and you should be able to toggle it on and off like before.

Edit: updated my Sig with my promotion, it still shows me as silver on the leader board. Have I done something wrong?

Just a matter of timing. The daily Registry update would have picked up the change in a few hours from now, and splits that you post after that should show you as Gold. I went ahead and forced the sync just now, so the next splits you post should do the trick. Feel free to post the same 25.254 again, to check my theory.
