Hi all.
👍
Just ran my brand new castrol supra.
Only 940hp.
Still broke a good marker.
T3: 2'59.??? (2'59.999 would be a safe bet though
)
Will be back to let you all know how progress goes.
Till then...
btw, still working out thoughts on multiple entries.
Back soon with news on it though.

I don't mind sharing mine, but being 7+ seconds behind Hugo, you might want to wait for his settings.TheWizard
Kent might oblige as well as he is running nearly the identical car some 3 seconds faster than me.
My settings:
13/15.5
65/65
6/9
7/9
2/1
0/0
6/7
24/24
5/5/5
3.576 (I have it set to lowest so 1st gear doesn't kick in, I drive auto)
2.102
1.603
1.284
1.074
0.941
3.090 - final
auto - 21 (tranny trick)
DF = Max
ASM = 0
TCS = 4
This is essentially my Midfield set-up with slightly taller gears for the longer straights. I only ran a couple laps, so it needs tuning for this course.
Edited my settings a little after 5 laps.

Again lots of mistakes on this clean lap. Settings still need to be tweaked a little more. Here are my times;
.
POLY 001

T1 1.02.214
T2 1.50.085
T3 2.40.506

just that you seem to be as fast as me, and i was wondering which div you in.
BTW
if you worked a bit more on your T1 youd be very fast 👍 nice work

no, no your beating me again
looks like i will get some more runs in over the weekend, but i think i need some better settings if i want to really put up a good fight.
Any pro's got some good F1 settings??

Yes, multiple submissions will be allowed.
However, there are circumstances.
First, Only 3 submissions per person. (you may submit less than 3 if you wish)
Please follow a format similar to what I am about to show...
(Your times from fastest to slowest)
Time driver(division) car (hp or spec worthy of noting)
x'xx.xxx Kent(1) Castrol Supra (970hp)
x'xx.xxx Kent(1) Mini (arcade)
x'xx.xxx Kent(1) POS (Sim tires)
Please try to stick with that basic format.
The less you write the easier it will be.
Also, if the times are lined up on the left side of the page (just like above) then it will be even easier for me.
I really want to stress that if you do not follow something generally similar to what is above things will be much harder on me.
Lastly,
Because of this multiple entry setup and because of the very nature of this race, I will be posting results in order from fastest to slowest.
But trust me, I will do my best to make the results look good while showing the results in the best light possible for everyone.
Thanks for working with me on this one, I am sure we can all have some great fun with this race so let's try our best.

Kentregarding mutliple submissions...
I'm still thinking it over.
Problem is, I am also at a dilemma regarding statistics.
That's right, stats.
Thing is...
This week (if included) will throw off the dynamic stats as well as the overall stats.
With great d1 drivers like cfm spending all that time on the mini it would be wrong (IMO) to short him on a stats page just because a slower driver spent all their time in a P001.
So for now I am really concerning myself with that problem above all others.
Now back to the other question... Multiple entries.
ATM I am really torn up on this one.
Input from all of you could be the deciding factor so please give me your opinions.
Till then,

Sorry for my stupid wrong-time-giving pm
My T2 is around 2:07.Somethime's I can't remember my T time's because I focus on racing. 👍 Cheers,

Castrol Supra

Nice there Kent, actually that makes it quite easier for you to post the results, please people follow the pattern
Now, I think I'll submit my F1, GT One and I still can't decide between the Mini and the Lancer hehe, but it looks more forward to the Lancer because it's a car that hasn't been used so far.
Oh and an update on my F1 time, I really liked this lap, probably will be my submitted lap(catching a cold at the moment ):
T1=1'01.372
T2=1'47.905
T3=2'36.805
Improved about 1.9 secs from my previous best lap

CorpsAlright, here I go being geeky.....
I'm a software developer, I make a living creating systems that store/sort data and make reports. So naturally when I joined the WRS and saw the stats I figured it was all done using a program. But of course, they always do it manually when a program would do it much easier
I'm not sure if Kent is doing the same thing, but if you guys want, I could write an application that would make your lives much easier.
Ahh ... a fellow geek
I'm actually a graphic designer and front-end developer IRL.The leaderboard isn't done by hand, exactly. I'm using XSL to transform an XML document. Take a look (XML, XSL) if you're curious. You might have to view source on those to see what's going on.
The "by hand" part is me entering the data into the XML file. XSL's sorting ability is less than great, hence entering all the times in milliseconds.
I thought about building a database, but it'd be a hell of a lot of work to build and maintain. There's two problems. First is managing users submitting their own times, which would require a whole user account system, etc. Second is that the races have a lot of variation (some tracks only have two splits, others have 3, some weeks have multiple weeks, some weeks have car choices ... take a look at that XSL file if you want to see what I mean
). Both are possible, but I'd have to do a lot of entering by hand to make the same amout of work for myself The current setup took about two days of programming.This week is pretty nutty in terms of the number of times, but most weeks there are only 15-20 people actively racing, in one car, so it's not much work to do it by hand.

After 15 laps I got a brand new lap:
T1:1.06.011(still work to do)
T2:2.01.547(almost clean)
T3:2:55.233(far from clean)
Still have a lot of work to do, no other entries this week.I'm only focusing on the GT-ONE's lap.
👍
BTW: No P001 this week, that car sucks=> best T2:2.03.566

Oh I didn't know that you are using the GT One, by your T times I think I'm a bit faster, can't remember exactly my T times but they are on this thread around here, my T3 is at about 2'57 or something, cant remember.

You have some settings??? I'm driving with full downforce.
Settings plz 👍
- 475
I really didn't do that much to the car, most of it is default, if I remember well, I did a bit of changes:
springs: 17/13.8
ride height: 70/70
shock bound and rebound: 10/10
camber: 2.5/2.0
stabilizers: 4/4
brakes: 24/24
LSD: all set to 5(rear ones of course)
Gear: Tranny Trick, final gear ratio at 3.14
Downforce: 1.00/1.25
ASM: 0
TCS: 2
Hope it helps

Ahhh I C, I looked at the files and it looks like you have a pretty good system in place 👍
You just scared me when you said you had to break out your calculator, since I usually work with financial software, that phrase can often send shivers down my spine, lol.

IT'S FRIDAY! AT LAST! Sorry for the caps+bold+oversize combo, but I had to say it loud, really loud, or else I might not even believe it myself. It's been a hell of a week between college, homework and assignments to turn in, and now I finally get some time out and some GT3 (quality)time Which means, time to get serious with WRS and laps on the Complex String II.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
I am going to give them a try in -3, -2, -1...
I'll keep you all updated about my progress (positive, I hope)
Later.

Just wanted to stop in and show you all something.
I remember people talking about the turn-out for this week's race... How many would be in it and if it would set a record?
Well I did a quick search through some of the results from the archive and found this one... https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=47922
Week 79: midfield II: arcade S class: hotlap
35 racers submitted that week (only 1 of which was d3) !!!
So yeah, maybe this week will be popular, but if I can find a week with that many entries by only searching through less than 1/4 of the results threads...
I am sure there are other week's like that from the past and I am sure there will be more to come.
Later.
btw, bout to do some racing... Will let you all know how it goes once I'm done.
edit:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=41460
Found this one with what I think was 34 entries.
Also, with all the results I've been looking at... I would say the average is closer to 20 than 15.
Lots of weeks with between 20 and 25.
Not too many with less than 20... but I know there are some in there with less than 20.
Oh well...
Point is, I think we have a steady turnout of good racers.
Still would like to see the most popular week's numbers though.
Ok, finally,
Just finished looking over the results that I suspected of being popular weeks (since I took over in week 53)...
Turns out 20-25 is a popular number.
Also, week 53 was a 30 entry week.
Anyway, back later with racing updates.
Till then,

, With a bit of luck i should be able to break into the 2:36's maybe. Ive got some good time later today and tonight to work on it, Sunday night i will hopefully post some new fast times from me.
