Week 54 Results

[Kent]

Great job fellas.
Top honors go to odp with a blazing time. 👍 (what a suprise)
Congrats to all top runners and congrats to all podium runners in each division.
Scuderia229 gets an upgrade to division 2 starting with week 55. Way to go with the improvements... keep it up.
Famine seems to have the antidote for a snake bite because this week ensured his pro status will remain.:sweet:
Bollocks, I've got an eye on you too... doing quite well, so keep it up.

I'm happy to see everyone still putting in a lap even though there were some nasty drivers to share the track with.
Good luck next week and congrats to all.

Division 1

If anyone is interested my times were 1'19.2 -> 1'14.1 -> 1'14.0.
Sadly, I saw several 1'13.2's, so I know the time could have been
around odp's if I would have had the dedication to run all week long instead of just the first few days. Will have my replay up shortly... didn't expect to place on a podium.

Congrats to all the racers who hung tough and submitted a time for this one, and especially to scuderia229 for his much deserved promotion. Don't get complacent scud! Just cuz you're in Division 2, don't think I won't be chasing you!

Astounding time by ODP and great times by GoKents and Bollocks#999 as well! 👍

 

[Kent]

Replay loaded.

And thanks cfm! (should you happen to see this)

I down loaded you garage at the bottom of the forum and I am currently using it as the base of a new garage to do some testing...

Later, and again, great racing fellas. Keepin the pack pretty tight throughout the ranks.

Damn I can't believe I didn't post my freaking replay... sorry to double post it up.

 

[Kent]

So very ashamed and sorry... a moderator double posting in his own forum.

Atleast I'm posting a replay to support my times.

 

[Oliver DePlace]

It helps make the thread look BIGGER.

I had to make a choice, either 3days of skiing in 4 ft. of fresh or making my thumbs sore. Well, I did both.

This was a frustrating bugger, so hard to put them together.

FWIW, lap times. 1:19.240/1:13.184//1:13.474

PBs were 1:18.744(once) 1:18.8(several)/1:12.8(a couple) 1:12.9(several).

Congratulations to all who gutted it out. 👍

 

[eggmann]

Nice racing everyone! Very fast time there, ODP. 👍

Wish I had more time... Here's my replay, and W53 also, since I had my Sharkport hooked up.

[scuderia229]

wow! I feel I half assed this week between not digging the car/AI and being busy...but. HareTurtle....I was worried about you last night since I hadn't seen any sector times all week...I knew I left the door wide open. Great racing. My best lap was a 1.14.9, I a few 1.14'5xxs ...lap 2 alwasy being my best, Lap1 was always in the high 1'20.xxx and Lap three was almost always in the low 1'15'xxx. I think I had at least another 2 seconds to lump off before I really started working hard to shave .10s etc...just didn't have the time or the heart to race this one hard.

As much as I *****ed and moaned I feel this was the race I learned the most in so far (the BMW/Toyota one being the next). I guess that is how it works, running what you don't like makes you work harder to make it good.

Watch out div2....hahahaha......I'll be picking up the rear for a while (haha). A few weeks back when GoKents brought up me moving to Div 2 I didn't feel ready but I do now, ready at least to compete and learn. Only problem is now I have to figure out whose sector times to rally watch in div 2...hahaha...I had HareTurtle in my sights (don't worry I'l still watching you...hahaha).

I gotta run to the train to go to work but will get my replay up tonight. I am proud of my first turn line...I want to share...

Great racing guys and congrats to all! And thanks for racing even when most of us weren't happy campers...bailing just because you don't like the car/race is lame....racing is adapting to any situation and using your skills...we can't always run what we like, if we did what fun would it be.

 

[oxygenuk]

kent can i submit my time i was meant to last night but i too busy out getting pi**ed

 

[NielsG]

Congrats to all. Great times. 👍

Good work, scuderia. You've deserved your promotion, and I might add: I won't miss you in div 3.

And for my own time. Guess I must invest some more time, if I shall avoid being humiliated again.

 

[Danoff]

Great Times everyone. Tough race, but a fun one. Longer races mean more range in the results and less chance of a lucky run.

I have had some trouble concentrating on the weekly recently. I think I pushed myself more than I wanted to in previous weeks and now I'm backing off and caring less about how well I do. Hopefully I can get back into the swing, but I doubt I'll sink as much time into the races as I used to.

 

[Famine]

Hurrah! And, for good measure, huzzah!

I'd set a target of 3'47.999 as things started settling down, and I almost got it, but I was having trouble stringing them together. I had two 1'13.6 laps in consecutive races, but when I came to improving my out lap, I couldn't break a 1'14.0. My three bestest laps slapped together would have been a 3'46.6 - still behind ODP... Nicely run

(replay pending)

 

[BigJamesGTI]

Ive well and truly screwed up my PC at home. Managed to delete windows as I was planning on re-installing it but I havent got the access code thing to re-install so the pc is buggered !!!! I ran this earlier on in the week and remember a 54 sec t2 but I suppose it doesnt matter now

 

[Rolfje]

1'13 laptimes?

Where can I get those bionic implants? Sorry my submission was too late.

Very tough car, not my kind (is the steering wheel working on a viper?) Spent a lot of time on this, but I really can not imagine a 1'13. See if I can load a replay to the PS2 to see how you guys to this.

 

[Rolfje]

Hey, are sharkport saves compatible with xport, and can I load up NTSC on my PAL machine?

 

[ving]

Yes - change the file extension to .xps.

But you won't be able to view any replays, unless your machine has been chipped.

Believe it or not, this is a major compliment to me simply because I was pulling in race 1.13's all week. (just never got to keep one since my keeper was on a 1.19.2 first lap... 19.2 makes a big difference)

But indeed, I had 1.13.2/1.13.3 a lot, and I mean a lot. It was a shame that I didn't get to put down 2 13.5's and a low 1.19.

Oh well, but still, thanks.
Makes me feel fast.

 

[Famine]

And I'll echo that

No problem, that's why I put it up so people could use it.

Sorry I haven't run for a while but I just have not been in the mood, even though the 3 lap Viper Oreca at the Seca sounded like a blast, I was on vacation last week and didn't want to spend it all playing video games since I rarely get time off from work Nothing personal Kent, I've lost a bit of interest in GT3 for a cople months now. Been playing Medal of Honor instead

Maybe if I can get some motivation up I'll try the 206 at SSR11 II this week... See you all later

 

[Oliver DePlace]

Don't you do most of your GT3 at work?

 

[Bollocks#999]

Luxy:its spelt with an "O" , Bollocks

My mistake, Bollocks, didn't mean to offend
