GTP_WRS Week 7 : Crampons not needed

[Never2fast1]

Did my normal pre work run this morning, man Ran 15 laps, only one wasn't invalid due to hitting wall. Ran some great sector times but just couldn't put them together or stay off the wall. Saw my second sub 47 T2 today combined with a 21.1 T1 on same lap, got way too excited and blew the car right into the wall on the next corner after the esses. If I could just put this together I think I have a top 25 time, but I can't stay off the 🤬 walls.

I ran a lap that achieved my goal last night and exited too early, so the replay is hanging at the line........

However, I believe I have about 4-5 tenths room for improvement in that lap, so intend to go get it this weekend.

Almost at my limit but I am starting to feel better after 8 days with the flu...

Yet to string together all my best sectors. 5 tenths improvement to be seen at least. Fun combo this week.

Finally found time to do a little of what I joined this his merry group for, running @Mr P 's tune and a lovely livery from @Sjaak that's adding 20mph, or is that just my imagination

21.064

Still some out there

Switching to @Sjaak livery as we speak...

My latest lap looks like it might not be clean. Can now only get within 3/4 tenths of it, but the time is certainly there. Back to the track for me!

 

[Mires]

Sooo late to the party (again) so let the red laps galore begin

21.589

uff, will really need to figure out the setup, as for now i feel like i'm driving with the handbrake stuck on maximum strength

I had a lap like this the other day, looks like mirror touches wall, so that is when I turned on the wall penalty and have it invalidate any lap I touch the wall. I set it on strictest setting. Sucks I am only getting like 3 or 4 clean laps out of 20.

Mine is more track limits. Where do you change the penalties in Time Trial mode?

After 4 more laps (3 of them red / exactly as previous stint) - 1.4s down on T3, 1.4 at the line, mid-pack attack at least for now, as much as I like Gr.4 cars i cannot fully understand this one

 

[Never2fast1]

Race settings. Top left, right next to where you load ghost replay. Took me forever to find it.

 

[Mires]

The wall collision setting is a must for this combo, at least is a top priority recommendation. Can save so many nerves. ^^

Pre weekend splits with some improvement after being a little more brave re speed and gear selection on certain corners (thanks WRS teammates) - more time to find especially T4 though.....

Using EDK gearing and elements of Mr P's tune but left dampers and ARB as stock.

Yep agree, otherwise you can be like me and think you have a great lap and your 17 year old kids tells you he thinks you hit a wall, which of course I denied until watching the replay......my son thought it was funny.

Or, indeed, wear out your x button playing virtually the entire lap frame by frame

I didn't know you could do that until this thread, you learn something new every day about this game.

Apparently didn't hit the wall here (God knows how), but have since set a better lap by taking a tighter line at Forest Elbow.

 

[andrew1990]

New clean lap that's a bit faster than the old one

That looks clean by a mile..........

Exactly, comunity events are the way you learn the most, plus anyone else can learn something from you. ^^ nobody is perfect, but together we are damn close

 

[GTP_randy]

nobody is perfect,

Excuzzzeee me.

I don't make mistakes.......... I just learn a lot of wrong ways to do things.

Updated splits

[Renrag39]

Didn't improve any today but made progress nonetheless.
Tried @EDK full tune. Then tried my sus and edk gears. Then added in his LSD. Then modded that. Was getting close then got called in early to work.
Tomorrow I'll put my box back in with the modded LSD and go from there.

 

[shoenboggie]

Current splits:

21.086
46.609
34.073

Running 9/2 ARB and adjusting brake balance on the fly, +1 on most of the lap and +3 at the top of the hill section.

Maybe another .400 in it, maybe.

 

[Ph1sh]

Slower splits but better at the line. Still some time to be found. Gotta be a bit more consistent in T3, killed quite a bit of time.

[Fastas]

Useful learning session this evening;..

21.115
46.797
34.037

 

[Never2fast1]

Took 17 laps but just ran fastest and only clean lap of the night.

Still have time to gain but this will be tough to beat for me, can run faster sectors but putting them all on one lap is a different story.

21.286
47.403
35.252

 

[Gravitron]

No dice!

(from a slower, dirtier lap)

Now *this* is a dice!

Woke up, had a glass of water and did some more laps.
I feel like this is my threshold of speed at this track. My optimal time is few tenths faster, but I'm mostly getting red flagged laps at this point.

finally, a decent round.

the middle part, with the walls is like a pinball machine

TC: 0
BB: -2

tune @EDK thanks 👍
