Nordschleife Lap Times

[paskowitz]

Obviously beatable but 7:13.437 with the Aventador (tire degradation, real grip, and on the variable time of day track... so obviously not worth recording). The car should be able to do close to a sub 7 minute time if not sub 7. It is SO much better than the SV. None of this high speed oversteer crap. Even with more power it does not have the top end of the F1 and cannot hit 200mph before the Bilstein bridge. That being said, it is infinitely easier to drive.

On a side note, I really like how certain areas of The Ring now properly cause the car to go airborne. From Bergwerk to Klostertal you can really feel the car get loose over the elevation changes. I noticed this in the Vantage when I went to take pictures. The suspension was fully unloaded in certain parts, which I did not notice before (pre 2.00). One thing I wish they would do is increase the grip reduction of the curbs. IRL they are very slippery and there are specific ones you cannot hit without loosing traction (no matter the car). While some curbs will jolt your car, most do not do it enough. This is a flaw with GT5 in general (trying cutting corners in iRacing on Leguna... it won't work). But The Ring in particular is very dangerous to cut.

Am I the only who doesn't feel any difference since 2.03?!

 

[Michel4AGE]

Hmm will try tonight, I'm sure I'd feel a difference.. if there is any. So should you Manuelos..

You beat my time! I thought that would stand for atleast a few days

 

[Timppaq]

Didn't feel anything (changes) with 458. Might be car dependant?

To be honest, your time was already very quick.

Obviously beatable but 7:13.437 with the Aventador (tire degradation, real grip, and on the variable time of day track... so obviously not worth recording). The car should be able to do close to a sub 7 minute time if not sub 7. It is SO much better than the SV. None of this high speed oversteer crap.

Just did a 7:11.xxx with it, as you said, much improvable.

But I can't agree that it is much better than the SV. The SV has better aero, the Aventador has much understeer, thus my time with it was barely faster then my time with the SV: 7:12.xxx.

 

[HJLamont]

Well he better have spent more than hour on it or im going to sulk.

Spreadsheet updated!

And videos added!



Im waiting for video of Deutsch Rennen to update them to the list:
8:17.702 VW Golf V GTI '05 (Stock)
7:53.295 VW Scirrocco R '10 (Stock)


New changes done to the categories(''Open'' and ''Tuned street legal'' added...):

-Production: Street cars, bone stock, only oil change allowed, no upgrade or settings allowed, use stock tires installed on the car.

Race/non-productions: Race cars or concept cars(models that arent on production..), no power upgrade allowed, only settings are allowed, Racing soft tires allowed.

Open: Everything is allowed, racing soft tires allowed, every car allowed, no restrictions.

Tuned (Street legal): Productions car and concept cars that would be considered as street legal, no restriction on power upgrades or settings, Sport Soft tires allowed to remain street legal (Racing tires NOT allowed)

Race/non-productions ALL STOCK: Race cars or concept car that arent into productions, no power upgrade allowed, oil change is allowed, use stock tires only
NO settings allowed , drive the car as it is from factory.

Just a reminder for anyone that is wondering, at all time SRF is not allowed.

I hope Bonobo will update this to the first page.
Let me know if theres any error as always.

The first driver to break into the 2 Minute zone (With a verifiable time. Must be realistic grip. ABS=1 everything else off)

Gets 3 free cars, on me. (tradeable, and easily obtainable)
And some Mattes.

PM me when you think you have it.

You did great still , Manuelos is a quick driver.

I did 2 laps, first was a fun-sliding-drifting kinda lap. Second lap I tried to push, made some small mistakes, there's still some seconds left.

It's astounding how much skill some people have here, including you.

I know I would need like 2h or more to reach your lap time. It also can be down to the peripheral used, I have a DFGT, a G25,27 could be "better"? I don't know...

 

[Manuelos]

-Production: Street cars, bone stock, only oil change allowed, no upgrade or settings allowed, use stock tires installed on the car.

What about overhauling the engine and restoring body rigidity?

 

[Timppaq]

I believe you can do the overhaul, not sure about the body rigidity.

 

[Manuelos]

Thanks, although I don't consider myself that fast really. There are a lot of people in here who are a lot faster than me.
+ the Nordschleife is practically the only track I use in GT5

I'm finding the feeling in the pedals better compared to the DFGT. But if its making me any faster ... no idea

I must disagree. You are extremely fast, no doubt, and skilled.

Those, who are faster than you (mike and the likes) are simply THE best drivers.

I can consider myself (very) fast. Still far away from the best.

 

[mike_gt3]

They are both allowed i forgot to add this, the rigidity thing you can do in the upgrades where you can do weight reduction is not allowed though. ...Sorry trying to explain that in my words.. lol



I agree with manuelos for the G27, its a better experience than the DFGT but hard to say if it help going faster, id say once you are used to the DFGT its as fast but i havent tested...


I also rarely run on any different track than the Nordschleife, i think the WRS events will help me learn the other tracks though, thats a good thing!

Im impressed how many cars we have run so far lol its a huge list!. 👍

 

[bonobo4]

I've added the new tuning categories to the OP. Not updated the OP yet but will do either tomorrow or weekend.

 

[mike_gt3]

Thx bonobo4! will make things easier to update.

 

[HJLamont]

Am i the only one that uses a DS3? Dies a wheel make that much difference?

 

[Alex p.]

Am i the only one that uses a DS3? Dies a wheel make that much difference?

Yes. Also, it feels amazing with a proper wheel. You really feel everything the car does.

What's most important: It's huge fun. 👍

 

[Towie1337]

Am i the only one that uses a DS3? Dies a wheel make that much difference?

Im using both wheel and ds3, favorite is wheel and atleast i think its easier to control the car, even if the ds3 is awesome, but a wheel makes diffrence!

 

[mike_gt3]

Yes. Also, it feels amazing with a proper wheel. You really feel everything the car does.

Exactly!


You should see me with a DS3...

 

[Dr.Boss.]

G27 & Wheelstand Pro here

I didn't own a wheel until GT5... can't imagine playing the game any other way.

Well done michel4AGE!

 

[hsdioce]

I got the new Aventador around in 7:18.XXX, I didn't see that on the board already, but there you go, but someone will probably beat it, and I can probably go faster myself

[Energizerrr]

Can anyone of the really fast guys (Timo, Mike, Manuelos hello ) go round in Aventador?
I'm wondering about it before I get the pack.

Cheers.

 

[mike_gt3]

Nice improvement HJLamont! You keep improving since the beginning of this thread, keep it going! 👍

I will do, i was about to buy the new DLC and the previous one in same time some minutes ago but the psn is down for the moment...grr!!

I will give it a try for sure, it should be decently quick from the spec and comments i seen about it.


Tried the new update too, didnt noticed much difference, i tested the Supra, hard to say, i just did 4-5 laps i will test more tomorow.

07:48.038 - Toyota Supra RZ '97 (mike_gt3) BEATEN

Its not a perfect lap but not bad either, id say theres at least 0.500 to shave easily with more runtime. Forgot how fun this car was to drive!
