Week 77: Small on the Horses, Big on the...

[beru]

This beru guy looks like he could give the big guns in D1 a run for their money. Nice job man 👍.

I don't know, Mr. P look pretty strong, consistant on 50.9xx. And i'm sure there is some other good driver i don't know.

I did a few lap under 51 but it's hard.

I try to do my best, Thanks.

23.7 / 50.8 in save ..... seen 23.5 and 50.6 as best ever for both 👎

That was a cool combo anyway 👍

Good luck guys

Laters.

 

[Sphinx]

Not doing very well with this one, strange seeing I actually own a mini in r/l. One thing I do know is that it drives and handles nothing like a real Mini but then again I haven't got well over 100hp under the bonnet, I wish lol

 

[rollazn]

I submitted my time.

I have beaten my record about almost 2 second. I have gotten better at the start, because of Mr. P advice. 👍 I also got a better T1 and T2.

My T2 time was 51.871

 

[Omero]

well, I'm going to have to do more racing then. I can't see Mr. P's advice helping me in the near future, as I haven't been getting any extra speed with or without that method...

 

[Smallhorses]

Ok, getting better, & cleaner. Have a lap saved now, but am still hoping for improvement to catch the rest of the Div1 leaders.

T2 is 51.590 (actually posted this same exact T2 time on 2 consecutive laps, but the 2nd one although quicker at EOL, isn't 100% clean.)

 

[Michael K]

For whatever reason, I never could get a "feel" for switching to 5 gears, so I went back to 6. I'm at 2.990 final with the tranny trick, seems to work ok for me.

I think 51.7 is the best I'll manage. I'll give a few more tries, though.

 

[Omero]

My lines are falling apart. I don't know why my racing has deteriorated, but I have not seen anything better than my 52.0 that I posted earlier.

 

[Kaneda1975]

Update:

T1 - 0:24,351

T2: 0:52,412

May be tomorrow will be better, but i'm satisfeid @ the moment.

 

[tuff240]

Got another session in today and pulled .5 off of my overall lap time.
I'm running pretty regularly in the 52.0xx at T2 now, but haven't broken into the 51's yet. My best overall clean lap is at 52.284 though.

 

[SilentRikku27]

I am done, I am finished at 52.288.

 

[tuff240]

Got a clean 51.911 but buggered the last corner a bit so the final time isn't any faster than my previous 52.292.

Best T1 so far is a 23.942.
I'm usually in the 24.0-24.3 range though.

Thumb is sore and the car is down 8hp so I'm quiting for tonight.

*edit- Just ran a 23.955/51.679 and STILL got passed back in the last turn by my 52.292 ghost.

*edit #2 Finally beat my 52.292 ghost to the finish line with a 23.986/51.749.

Well done mate 👍 I hate it when you know you can go faster but something always comes along to prevent it

 

[Flerbizky]

I haven't been able to do one single acceptable clean lap for the last 24 hours.. I'm quitting - time submitted.....

 

[tuff240]

New best clean lap for me: 23.969/51.618
I've seen a couple 23.8xx's and one 51.5xx, but could never finish out the laps clean.

After 9+ hours in the Mini this week, I think I'm done with this one.

 

[banjobear]

Fastest lap is at:

24.052
51.538.

I've done 23.992/51.364 clean, but the last sector was rubbish so the above one is my fastest. There're still at least a few tenths for me, but I'm having trouble getting them.

 

[Monty]

I have been on a week long festival, but managed to put down some times with a undeveloped setup before i went.No Im totally out of shape, bet my splits are a bit slow.I have tried with a heavier torque-wheel:24.615
52.954
I have been dipping some better laps, but they wasnt clean

 

[NielsG]

Got it down to:

24.110
51.700

That's minus 0.398 on the T2, but only 0.035 on the total. Damn last turn.

EDIT: Time submitted.

 

[Kaneda1975]

I am done, and GoKents you have a pm.

T1: 0:24,351
T2: 0:52,412

My Laptime is in the pm.

It was the first race since 10 month, but it was O.K. for me.
In abaout 10 Days i become (hopefully) my Logitech Driving Force pro. That's why i drive in the Weekly Race Serie - i will train with my Logitch. In our german-forum the people says that the time for getting the same times with steering wheel are 4 weeks (if i train hard). In October we habe a big Challenge (the "Ruhrpott Challenge"). From all over the country & may be from Austria & from Holland, people come to having fun 3 Days. It's the 4th Challenge - i was on the first. We where 30 guys & it was a great thing. So i have 6 weeks to trai, because i don't want to compromise me.
So guys, i had a lot of fun last week - may be this week come a race the i can do better.

That seems like a long time.. .When I first changed from DS2 to a wheel, I was matching my times within a couple days, and going faster than DS2 within a week or so. Viel Glück!

[Tedehur]

Damn last turn.

That was already your problem back in April for the Mini Cup race.

I practice for a while this week (perhaps 40 laps in total).
I had consistent T1 = 24.2 and T2 = 52.2 and half a dozen laps under 52.0
I submitted my best T2 (51.7) with also a terrible last hairpin.

 

[wellyrn]

I didn't have any time to run this week. My new job is keeping me busy and any free time I have is going to be used getting my Warhammer army painted because it's been put off for way too long.

I hope to be back in time for the GT4 weekly series

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Time submitted, no improvements

 

[Smallhorses]

Time submitted

T1 24.012
T2 51.974

Slower sectors than before but a 0.5s improvement on laptime over the 51.590 that I saw.

Saw 23.9xx and 51.4xx a few times, but couldn't make any headway with the final time.

 

[scuderia229]

Time submitted

25.419 / 52.325

Sat down for one session about an hour ago and ran 93 miles on this one. After seeing other div2 sectors I'm proud of this one given the time I had to spend on it. Great combo! So good I should have thought of it myself (whoops i did think of this one last winter for Gokents)....

I have a lap with a T2 51.760 but the above lap is .035 faster, go figure, that last turn is a killer if you brake to hard.....

Until next week.

Hahahahahahahaha

Here is mon temps final, didn't had plus de time to ride on it.

T1: 23.728
T2: 51.180(saw some 50.8xx)

I did a .400 faster final time but run into the grass in the last turn.
Turn me at the end.

But still had a good time. 👍

Ancious to see the 1.xx.xxx of Mr. P

 

[tuff240]

Time submitted same as above: 23.969/51.618

I was hoping to get another shot at beating banjobears T2 time tonight, but I didn't get a chance to run it again.

All I can do now is hope he and the others had a harder time with the last turn than I did, but that's not likely as it gave me fits all week.

Should be fairly close for the top 5 or so positions in D2. 👍

Time sent.
