Week 62: Popular Demand

[Dave A]

I though this weeks was a great combo.

 

[HareTurtle]

A lot of work, a little progress:

16.281 45.014 1:00.737 (clean lap)

Got a bad case of "best T3" nerves, and gave up a quarter second on the final sector, and I've seen quite a few 16.0xx T1's, so there's still room for improvement.

 

[Talentless]

Probably won't be able to get a time in.

time submitted....only could force myself to spend under 1 hour on this horrible combo over the course of the week.

oh well, we all have our bad weeks right?

Plus starting this week, at least for the next few weeks, I am switching back to my DS2 controller and putting the DFP wheel in th closet. I need to rest my hands as the wheel was killing me. Doing repeatative motions that are different (with the DS2) might be good for me. In 3 years of playing PS2 and 20+ playing video games in general no controller has hurt my hands like my DFP wheel has.....uggh.

Another plus side my wife is happy not to have a TV table with a ugly wheel on it and all the cable in the middle of our living room!

Thought I might miss this week as I took my "Seat" apart for finish welding & painting.

Ouch, that's gotta hurt!

I'm just about to fit my Viper with all the fixin's so as I can play in the Valley with all of youse, even if most of you have cleared the track for me already.

EDIT/ OK, OK, so I guess there's not too many fixin's to fit... More time for driving I guess.

Hey eggmann:
The "Painting" wouldn't have been too bad but the "Welding" burned like a B****
Don't let the "Nay Sayers" lead you astray, this is one of the Sweetest, pure phun to drive rides I've EVER Found in GT3!!! Just can't believe it took me over 2 years to find it! Many THANX to GoKents for an excellent Combo & "Good Luck" 👍 ...UB57

 

[eggmann]

Actually I was more worried about taking it apart, UB!

Dinner delayed my start, but after my first few laps my T3's 1:02.1. This car and track are FUN!

 

[Old Geezer]

GREAT Start eggmann: 👍
Only hints I can give is DON"T be Afraid to let the rear end hang out a bit & DON'T shy away from TCS. I tried Max E's set-up & it worked quite well especially considering he drives w/DS2 & I use the "Pro" Wheel. Switched back to my "Basic" FR Combo (Nearly "Stock") though as I just couldn't get the last "Esses" down w/his set-up. Can I "assume" you're using The GT4 Wheel as well??? ...UB57

Yep, I even have a photo of it.

It can never be said I was afraid to submit slow times.

I put in a lot of laps, had some good settings, and still stunk the place up. Best I could do was 16.6,46.6,1.02.4...submitted.

Looking forward to another week!

 

[eggmann]

After a bit more practice and some LSD (for the car, not me!), I'm at 15.890 / 45.196 / 1:00.723. Still lotsa time left to find. I'm sure having fun searching for it though.

Time Submitted: 👍
Final T-Times:

T-1 = 15.976'
T-2 = 44.736'
T-3 = 1:00.273

GREAT Ride / GREAT Venue, THANKS GoKents!!!
See Y'all next week...UB57

 

[HareTurtle]

Time submitted. No improvement (1:00.737).

Sure enjoyed this more than that squirrely little Lotus at Seattle. But it's all good. I learn a little something every time out. 👍

If it wasnt for my own stupidity, I would have been second outright this week
