Hi everyone

New here and this looks like a good race to start with.

Everyone is running great times. I ran a few laps last night and like this set up.
Just wish I could figure out the breaking point at the end of the first straight.....LOL I hate that sidewalk..

I have the 2nd section pretty tight, only using the brakes 2 times and lifting just a little in another spot. Loving that part of the track. I didn't write my T's down so I'll post them later..Hopefully I'll have the first 2 corners figured out by then LOL

That double apex.....AAAaahhhhhhhhhhhh....kills me everytime too.

Keep the pedal down and the paint on the car.

Does anyone know where I could find a video of a good hotlap at Rome II. All i could find at Daan's site was regular Rome. I'm having a little trouble finding the line.

 

[Kent]

Ok all. 👍

Tannis,
You are welcome in the WRS.
I believe your reputation preceeds you.

All is good.

 

[Tedehur]

After 6 laps, my best clean lap says
T1 = 19.5
T2 = 53.2

I won't have much time to learn the track in 5 days, so I guess I'll stay away for this week. Good luck.

 

[tuff240]

Got to spend 30 minutes on this just now. 👍

Large improvement for me.
New best clean lap: 18.454 / 50.019

That sidewalk between turns 1 and 2 is really pissin me off though.

Sorry to hijack the WRS GoKents but I just wanted to let everyone know the next installment of the Arcade Race Series is up in the Short Race Series Forum. Hope to see you there 👍.

 

[Kent]

yeah well you did ice, so beat it.



If you guys wanna ditch out on the wrs or use it as a boost for your own series, feel free.

Just don't plan on the wrs staying around long.

No racers = No racing series.

 

[Iceman]

I think its safe to say the WRS is here to stay 👍. Even Mr. P couldn't stay away more than 1 week.

Don't worry Kent, we love the WRS. We aren't going anywhere. 👍

Challenging combos and great racers here every week. How could we ask for anything more? Even MrP couldn't stay away long.

You have never expected any of us to run every week and give a warm hello everytime we show up, be it every week or once a year. The WRS is, I'm proud to say, my home away from home. I think a lot of us feel that way and that's partially credit to you.

Okay, enough sucking up, lets get back to racing!

Leaderboard current to this post BTW.

[LoudMusic]

I'm very moody about Rome 2. I need to give this one a try and see if I like it or not (:

 

[hellnback]

[BB96]

hi just wanted to tell yall where ive been,i had a bad dirtbike accident i broke my left arm and left leg,if you cant tell yes i crashed on my left side so i wont be racing for a while hope you guys have fun

 

[eghybrid]

OK, I decided to play finally, I registered and never joined! Hope I can compete!

This was after 5 laps...

T1 - 18.8**
T2 - 50.747

 

[Talentless]

I'm in the low to mid 50s and I think high 49s are possible. The double right after the last T still needs me to find it's proper line and approach, and I keep messing up on the first two turns.

 

[eghybrid]

A few more laps got me this...I think it's good enough for me, I can only do about 10-15 laps at a time before I get impatient.

T1 - 18.612
T2 - 50.375

 

[Tedehur]

As I said, I have no time this week (it's saturday and I'm still at work), but I ran 3 laps yesterday evening, just to have a clean lap I can submit.
T1 = 19.219
T2 = 52.323
Lap = crap

 

[tuff240]

Leaderboard updated. 👍

For the new racers this week, the link is in my sig.

 

[hellnback]

Just killed the 2nd to last left before the T2 and gained 0.300, new clean...

T1 - 18.620 (best still 18.465, seen lots of low 18.5's...)
T2 - 49.603

Dunno if I'll get it lower, that corner made the run...

@tuff : my awful time is already submitted. You can paint it white on your leaderboard.

My new job is also taking more time off me as the previous...


But at least with that similarity we are close on the track again
