Time Trial Discussion

[Famine]

People want the easy way and not having to boot up the PS to search for an ingame replay imo, like i said before, if you are looking for tips and tricks and input on you laps you have to put in some work yourself by uploading your fastest ( only the fastest lap ) onto this thread, just configurate your share butten to double tap for screen recording.

In my case i edit everything in Sharefactory-studio, so go to showcase/my items and hit the option button on the Duelsense when selected my recorded replay and load my recorded replay into sharefactory, from here i can edit and directly export to my linked youtube acount.
( linking have to be done in another section of the PS5 ( users and acounts / linked services )

But saying "hey guys my replay is ingame check it out" ain't going to get you a lot of reply's ...just saying.

It's not like I linked him to that exact page in the PlayStation 5 manual yesterday.

Wait.

Had to flip it over on it's correct side.

I mean, you didn't have to, it's just a good idea not to operate sensitive equipment upside-down.

As I asked before, you did put the acrylic feet onto it though, right? Only they weren't fitted when you had it ass-skywards.

Pass on the RBJ. I shall be a spectator for this week's. Enjoy all and Merry Christmas!

Early days. Sub 45 is on the table, but I'll string it together some other time. Really fun to push this one! Happy lapping team.

The results for TT119 at Autodrome Lago Maggiore - Full Course in the Gr.4 are over here. I have updated the opening post with the index of all TTs and the second post with the community scoreboards.

Here are some statistics for TT120 at Goodwood Motor Circuit in the Renault Sport Mégane Trophy '11.

Spoiler: GTP Scoreboard

There, it worked like a charm,
It finally worked and I was able to link my Youtube account to the ps5. So, now I won't have to use a mobile device for recording laps.

I have come to the conclusion that in 2025 I need to spend 3k on a sim rig in a desperate attempt to put an end to my lackluster performances.

I don't meant to upset you this close to Christmas, but have a look at the GTP leaderboard for the megane a few posts above... all you need is a pad clearly! 😅😳

Heard rumours @TumeK5 @newmedia_dev can't get into the top 100, still lots more time to be found using a controller. 🫵🏼

Weird flex but ok. And naturally you tag the people you locked horns with.

Normally I'm too lazy to get on the wheel for TTs - I don't do them regularly anyway - and right now the rig is Christmas present storage. Gold on the pad for the Gr4 event took two clean laps in the Huracan.

Until I went to the original PS5 (complicated reasons to do with sharing) to try on the GTPlanet editorial pool account... which took 15 laps to get within 0.2s of my two-lap time on the office console...

I can't easily rationalise the difference here. About the only difference is that the old console is now hooked to a 1080p60 display and the new one to the 4K panel that the old one used to use...

You have to switch consoles and try again, you can't let a mistery like this unsolved !

Maybe the console was upside down? 😅

First test in Catalunya :
Very pleasant TT and Red Bull easy to control. Get gold in 1'46'604 with optimal time at 1'46'405

Have another 1/2 second or so I can clean up if I need it I think.

Hey Chris,

in the perhaps overly optimistic hope that you're actually going to apply some advice ... the main problem I see is that you do not modulate brake and throttle input at all here, it's always 0% or 100%, never anything in-between. Most TTs and certainly this one benefit greatly from careful and partial application of inputs. Are you still using face buttons for braking and accelerating? If so: Stop. Doing. That. Learn to use your shiny new PS5 dual sense triggers with haptic feedback, and use them with restraint.

@Dan_Tes can I ask a favour?

Just to amend that Select statement (like "laggo")


Count > 5000

Edit:

I can already see what Christmas week and the week after races are gonna be in the dailies

Laggo

A VR open top car friendly/show off race (MX5 at Atlanta anyone?)

Run of the mill Daily C sprint with no strat but the illusion of a strat

 

[LogSwapper]

That one took a while. 90km of sucking and then out of nowhere a lap that was .4s faster than my previous best. No idea what I did different/better, but I’ll take it nonetheless..

 

[Barareklam]

It's a banker and I think holidays are coming and I think I will not chase better times, this time should hold for gold and I am good with that.

Talking about holidays...
