I just updated the T Times leaderboard. (link is in my sig)

I go by T3 times, then after all of those I go by the people that only listed T2 times. That is the reason MrP is so far down the list. If you compare his T time to Sphinx's, he going at least that fast or faster at T3, but I don't have a T3 to go by so I have to compare to others that have only reported T2 times. We can all see where he should really be, so makes no difference to me if he posts his T3 or not. Just wanted to explain why he is where he is.
 
Using the Vertigo, I can see it is faster than the denso. Best t3 so far is 1:09.146
 
Two cars stood out for my quick test. Castrol Tom's, and the Vertigo.
Then once I got goin' with the Vertigo I smashed my Castrol Tom's time
T1:18.573
T2:51.401
T3:1:09.303

Still more to come as I've been .3 faster at T1...
 
Best T3 at 1'10.3 after 10 laps in the Denso Supra.
I'll give a try to the Vertigo with TCS on though.
Does anyone see a difference in performance between the 2 Supras ? (I didn't try much the Castrol yet but I don't see any difference).
 
After the first cuople of sessions I'm at:

18.608
52.282
1'10.094

I've been testing the Vertigo, Calsonic and Denso. I have settled with the Vertigo, although I right now got a faster time with the Denso. But it looks like can improve much more with the Vertigo, than the Denso. The Calsonic get some great times at GTDB, but apparently I can't drive it at all. :ouch:
 
Had a few laps in the Vertigo last night... here's my best save sectors

18.534
51.210
1'08.792

Perhaps you already know this, but with the Calsonic and Loctite you must change gears around 6000. If you go to redline, lose too much time

The major difference that I noticed was on the Start/Finish straight: The Castrol seemed faster once into 5th gear - it noticably pulled away from the Denso at 230kmh (140ish mph).

No probs mate 👍 here's the sectors from my save ...

18.065 / 50.446 / 1.08.038



Thats my best T1, but i've seen faster T2 and T3's :)
 
vertigo(strange,when I see that car it reminds of a famous Belgium named AC.cobra.It seems that the man lives in a Belgium beer barrel)
T1-18.702
T2-51.576
T3-1'09.583
 
heres my times in the denso supra

t1 19.041

t2 53.998

t3 1:12.769

on my game i dont have the vertigo race car as an arcade car wonder why?
 
You haven't beat all the arcade races on hard mode yet. That's why you can't see a Vertigo

I think I'm still in Division 2 there Tuff. I hardly ever come around here though.
You are listed in Division 1. Check with Kent and get back to me.

Leaderboard is updated. :boggled:
 
18.424/51.357/1'09.056

Shaved a full second off of where I was yesterday, and the fast T3 isn't my fastest, I have run a T3 in under 1'09

*edit* all this was done in the Vertigo
 
:) Looks like a lot of action since I last checked in.....I've still been trying to hone my skills in the Supra (Denso)

So far, with areas that I see can be improved upon, I'm running:

T-1 = 18.686
T-2 = 51.538
T-3=1:09.196

Obviously, the Denso is not going to be the 'sharp knife' in this high-classed crowd in Vertigos.......so, I'll assume that a ride in Belgium's finest is imminent.
 
Did a few more laps with the Vertigo and sursprisingly it was my first lap that was the fastest. Hate it when that happens! Improved sector times though:

18.482
51.424
1'08.983
 
I'm giving the Vertigo a run as well.
T1 18.339
T2 50.811
T3 1:08.374
Man the low end of this trans is tricky to drive.
 
seen 18.0/50.2/1.07.7 in one lap and then lost my bottle after T3 :crazy:



... So far my best clean save has 18.3/50.5/1.07.9
The first bend and last S bend are wrecking most of my laps 👎

btw I'm also in the Vertigo with its Digestive biscuit wheels that hate the rumbles :ouch:

Laters 👍
 
Why is there always one D2 guy that is smoking the rest of D2 guys? (nice run btw HighonPSI)

Other than that, it looks real close! 👍

Leaderboard updated to this post.
 
Final laps of tonight and I smashed my best lap time by .2 ... woohoo! :dopey:

I'll try a final session again before the deadline, here's my best saves sectors ..

18.292/50.496/1.07.873 ... I got a sweet section after T3 this time :)

Good Luck Guys :cheers:
