World Supersport 1000 Championship, Season 1- Congratulations Champions Harsk, Ducati and Thematic!

[Trismantis]

You got very lucky, right on the limit! If you were offtrack for more than 3 seconds, you would get an additional time penalty. I also cutted the chicane, but also stayed off track during 2 seconds too! 👍

To be very honest...
I did not cut anything as I was not completely sure what would be allowed.... (doh)

Alright.

I generally don't mind if your wheels are off the track for a very short time during a lap by mistake - as long as it isn't intentional and gain time by doing so. At least, that is also how I interpreted the rule.

That's exactly that I was talking about. 👍

MX Hyland. How did you get your #8 on the Yamaha? I'd like to do it to mine. Then I could submit a photo.

He made the Challenge Mode and got the Yamaha. Then, he has choosen the #8 as racing number. But you can also change the racing number in your garage.

But if you change to #8, then it will be acting as #8b aka #108.

 

[Trismantis]

Ok - put in about 30 mins last night.
I did the initial run in first person and set a time.
Then tried in third person (chase cam) and could not get within 1.5 seconds of the time - I have no idea how you guys can use this!!

Alright. Don't forget to submit yor lap times by PM, please. And the photo for Spotters guide!

I'll try to run my lap times today.

 

[Trismantis]

One final question. ... when I overlap a line the time turns red - should I have the track limit penalty turned off for these runs?
I used to run in the GTP weekly trials for GT5 before - and they were super strict, I think it has given me a complex!

Well, if you turn the "Failure Conditions" on, then the time will turn red if you get off track. But if you turn off the Failure Conditions, then you can overlap a line.

You can stay off track as long as you don't exceed 3 seconds otherwise you will be penalized. The same method is done to Licenses and Challenge Mode from TT.

Will go with 56 if I can figure it out.

Alright then 👍

I'd like to say the same thing to you

Gave it a try as well and ended up being slower as a result. TT's first person view is actually one of the better ones out there, but I still feel as if I need a wider FOV to be as consistent as I'm in third person view.

I will definitely persist with this.
I started using the view with just the dials which is very good - and removing the failure conditions will definitely remove frustrations!

 

[Harsk100]

And I'll make an class change:
I'll be competing in "Custom class" from rounds 3 to 7. The last round, I'll compete in a road car.

 

[Harsk100]

Sorry for not giving any notice. I have been busy recently. But I'll try to publish the results today or tommorrow.

 

[Harsk100]

@DOKNYCE @MXHyland @listerstorm2009 @Trismantis @SupermotoRida @oldmodelt @Thematic

Results are finally published. Click the link of Round 3 and download it to see the Results.

But if you can't see the results, then I'll pronounce them:
Harsk wins the Round 3 ahead of MXHyland and Trismantis.

For standings, Harsk is closer to the title with just 27 points from MXHyland and Trismantis is 3rd.
Ducati leads the championship 50 points ahead of Yamaha and MV Augusta. An 1-2 finish of Ducati allowed the italian manufacturer to stay on the lead.

Harsk still leads the Normal Mode and Semi-Pro Mode, MXHyland in Pro Mode and Thematic makes an debut with a 5th overall which is the leader of its class, Road Class.

See you in next round 4, Nurburgring Nordschleife which starts now! 👍

 

[Thematic]

This is the highlight for me, I'll try to find more time than last round!

 

[Harsk100]

OK Thematic - But I recommend you to send your lap time ASAP. Because the soon you submit your lap time, the better.

 

[Thematic]

I will send a lap in after each session where there is improvement, so you can keep to the schedule perfectly.

 

[MXH]

Harsk wins the Round 3 ahead of MXHyland and Trismantis.

I almost wish I cut the corner at the end as well. Did some ''tests'' and low to mid 1'30 were easily possible, I reckon. Oh well.



I'm also keeping the Ducati for round 4.

 

[Trismantis]

Personally - and I am sure I will get flamed for this...
I think the track restrictions being on take out any question marks. It can be frustrating - but at least everyone is on the same deal.
But maybe my problem is, I never look for shortcuts.....too much time competing in the GT5 time trials!

Okay. Once you did the lap, please send me a PM.

Thanks for confirming your choice.

Any problem with track restrictions, Tris?

 

[ZedMan1996]

I wonder if there is an online mod for this...

Unfortunately, there isn't a online mode for Tourist Trophy.

 

[ZedMan1996]

Unfortunately, there isn't a online mode for Tourist Trophy.

mod* for maybe PCSX2? There are some old PS2 games out there with online mods for PCSX2.

Yes, I know, but we aren't allowed to discuss about it here.

Would you like to participate?

If I get it on PCSX2 yes, I would.

Thanks for who has made an effort to participate in this championship, especially @MXHyland and @Thematic because they gave me an good championship fight.
I always wanted to host an championship since two years ago. When I saw the WRS Tourist Trophy Time Trials, I decided that I would host a Tourist Trophy Championship.

Thanks to @MXHyland and @cdx for helping me with the championship's ideas while I was planning to host one.

So, guys, one more time, thank you for participating in this championship and see you in the next season!

Cheers!
