Aaarrggh. Nurburgring in week 6?!? I already feel a cold coming on. Maybe I'll let Joe (my B-Spec driver) do that one. The Nurb is the only track he does better than I - probably because he can stay on the track at speed and I can not yet do that for Nurburgring.

lovemymiata i can point you to sevearal videos of the nurb, with skilled drivers (no not me) at the wheel.
4 vids with 3rdgenracerX at the wheel, 3 of them are at the ring.
Rudi Rasier does a lap in a Arcade M3
so there is 4 vids in total of the ring, all which should help you. When learning the ring learn it in sections, dont worry about the whole track just learn it bit by bit. For me i learnt the start and end fairly easy but forgot the middle a lot (1st carusell - just before 2nd one). But after running it for fun a lot ive now pretty much memorized the whole track.
Also do the nurb license tests
A - 7 Cornering - Volkswagen Golf V GTI
A - 14 Cornering - Audi TT Coupe 1.8T Quattro
A - 16 Cornering - Mazda RX-7 spirit R Type A (FD)
IB - 2 Cornering - Mercedes Benz SL 500 (R129)
IA - 13 Cornering - BMW M5
They are normally crucial sections which can gain or loose a lot of time, especially A - 16. Gold them if you can but if you are unable to always watch the demo and you should be able to at least silver them
. When racing the nurb try to visualise, or at least know the next 2 - 3 corners so you are able to set your car up for them and be prepared, that way no corner is a suprise. Once you have learnt the track and are able to predict the next 3 turns or so from anywhere on the track then you go about refining your lines, and watchin the vids more closely.
I hope i helped you!

Thanks for the Nurb info. I've driven it several times, but need many, many more to be competent (read "can stay on track"). My biggest concern is not my ability to drive it well, but the time it will take to be competitive.
What's the average # hours/week you folks are spending on WRS?

I have school and work, so no more than 2 hours a day on average.

Last week averaged about 2 hrs a day ... too much really ... this week will be less. I didn't drive Monday, only half an hr on Tuesday and not at all yesterday. I'll probably do a couple of hours tonight, at least an hr, same tomorrow, maybe double that Saturday and Sunday ... but then I like to have the Monday "off" and if I OD on Saturday, I'll hardly touch it Sunday.

Last week i did 200 - 220 laps.
So normally 4 - 5 hours a week, depends on how fast i reach my limit.

I do whatever it takes to get my best within reasonable limits, maybe an hour or two average/day

How do you know this? Did CFM post this somewhere by chance?
I love the 'ring'...do we know what car might be selected?
Thx-

In the Suggestions Thred, Post #123
Just that the ring is Week 6. If we knew the car also then people would have so much of advantage by running more than 1 week.

I have you moving from 41 to 26, although this is unconfirmed and I'm still working on the board (I also want to make sure that the results become 'official', because typically one or two drivers get mis-placed and it ends up as more work for me). I'll have it finished towards the end of the work day, probably.
And a damned fine win, btw ... any chance of you posting a replay? (if your NTSC) ... I'd love to see it.

Nothing like putting down a good challenge, eh?

I've recruited both my son and a neighbor into WRS. So we have not only the online competition, but our own in-neighborhood competition. And so my local nemesis is Jmitch17 because he'll come over Sunday or Monday night, be several seconds slower than my best, than come Tuesday morning, he's chortling over beating me.
Maybe that's what I need, somebody to chortle over.
Well, I guess I am to be in someones dust .. (looks at most of the pack in front of him).. will say the freindships are more important though.
Working with Nat on this leaderboard, and on the side us helping each other push the Ring, ect. That is what it is all about.

Most definitely agree on that. I'm hoping to improve, but I'll never be up on the top of the leaderboard. Sunday and Monday night even get a little too stressful trying to really push my times, but I immensely enjoy the comraderie (you drove WHERE on the race track?!?
).So where's the pre-race tailgate party?

So is it Japan or Florida? Do you bounce back and forth between the two?
