Well guys, that's it for me this week. I have thrown this car around like a rag doll & I am VERY happy with the time I have achieved, especially since I only just started using the stick. What was I thinking using an auto all this time? I have had more enjoyment with the stick :sly:.

Emailing final lap.
Good Luck everyone 👍
 
Had my first session , getting to know with the RX-8 .

T1 1'03.067
T2 1'56.850




MadMax
 
My, a little off pace, times

1'04.417
1'59.415

Really great to have you in here, Barbol. 👍 I know you don't know me, I only started running in the WRS about 2 1/2 years ago. But it's always great to see some of the long time members and participants stepping in. :)

I see your last WRS was GT4 week 6, so you've taken a 246 week (4.73 year) break. :sly:

Welcome back, and I'm sure you'll be back on pace soon.

:cheers:
Kevin

If the G27 paddles don't work with GT5:P, is the use of the G27 shifter actually an option? Can you do that without the clutch and meet the WRS guidelines? I guess we'll see it in the replay this week if something odd is going on with the tranny during shifts.

To my knowledge, it doesn't work like the clutch. I think he's talking about using the stick in sequential mode, anyhow.
 
An early submission for me, I was getting bored of doing no improvements at all.

Good luck to all and see you next week. 👍
 
Yes indeed. :sly:

I may get to one last try with the Cappi, my Spoon exit is why my T2 slowed with my update today. Couple tenths there if I can clean that up. However I'm at that stage where it takes me ~5 laps to get within .5 of myself so another go may have me submitting the current lap.
C'mon div 2 don't let this noob get on the podium. :dopey:

:lol::lol::lol:

You can use the H-Pattern without using the clutch. It's like a Sequential 6 Speed shifter.


It's all good LinPark, NO CLUTCH was used anytime during my time trials 👍

Submitting with -

1:02.157
1:56.256

T1 and T2 were personal bests.

Not a perfect last sector, but it will have to do.
 
T1 1'03.253
T2 1'57.730

Put in about 60 laps not much time to work on.

Submitted.

Sadly only time for one run this week.
Good luck all.
 
I promised Kevin that I'd submit in this jubilee combo so here are my first splits. Looks like I'm out of shape after a period of less Prologue playing for a number of reasons :)

1'04.247
1'58.903

Seems like I am using the slower car rather than the fastest ... :(
 
Suzuka used t be my favorite track..... :D

Lol, i second that :D (well, actually she still is... in 5P)

I hope to improve my time to 1'58.50x today, or even better 1'57.9xx. I've driven multiple 1'58.7xx's but that's still not very fast compared to all the aliens this week :D

@Steven, nice to see you competing this week! :) And i'm glad to have a little more company at the bottom :P
 
Submitting with no improvement to board times........sad but true.


Good luck everyone. 👍
 
I guess I'll submit since I'm not supposed to be turning on my PS3 till Sony gets their junk straightened out!
 
Had some good luck cleaning up my issues in all of the sectors - submitted with these splits:

1'02.050
1'55.858

Not giving anything away but I don't see anyone in Div 2 (or any other Div for that matter) topping the time that Mignun is most likely submitting - he's got one time on the online leaderboard (I'm assuming that's not even his fastest) and that one would beat P1 in all the other cars. :) And somehow I don't think my final sector is near clean enough on this run to give DOUQA or clacksman a challenge - I just hope its not too bad to fall off the podium. :sly:

I have to say I very much enjoyed this combo this week - nice to be back at Suz and the Tuned Cap was really fun to play with through sector 1 this week.

Good Luck Everyone!
