Back to your old self already, Kristof. :D Within .03 of me. :tup:

poolhaas Jan 26 2012 4:37 PM

Yep, it's been a while. I do think I'm at my limits here, can't imagine getting 30.0xx in t1 ever.

Tried yours and got .2 at T2 but a hell of a lot more at the line.
Thanks

I've seen a .2 at T1 twice now and choked. :ouch:

Latest splits:
T1: 30.108
T2: 28.234

I've yet to see a 29.xxx in T1., but a few 30.0xx. I would need some luck to get one.

Racing On!

P.S. Very nice splits, Blair!! Doing D3 proud! :tup:

edit: Awesome job, Matt!!! :cheers: You seem to be adjusting to the wheel rather well. Too well!!! :sly:

Gravitron Jan 26 2012 5:53 PM

I thought you said it was my turn! You went out of order! :lol:

Nice splits, yourself, and I agree with the Blair props, too. :tup:

I takes it when I can get it!! :lol:

Had to edit in the shout to Matt! Thought I did it first, and then didn't see it. :dunce: Must be that short term memory loss!

First splits.

T1 30.639
T2 28.626

Well, I thought I would have some splits to report, but I need to think and inspect, and of course, run some more. The .5 that I thought I'd left on the track has now turned into a good 1.2sec, proved by my questionable lap with many close calls, this being just one of those:

Hmm, that looked more incriminating on the PS3/TV...

Splits weren't all that special (30.290, 28.0xx), but T3 was my best ever, AND had a sweet drift in that first slow part of the S before the tunnel. :dopey:

Also, grabbed a pic of the HP/torque curve for a newly bought Evo in GT Life mode:

Planning an early before-work session tomorrow morning, but then I'm 110% into the WRS vs ORCA Alfa@Fuji challenge on Sat. :tup:

Thanks Chuk, and Lucas for the support.:)

Now if i can only get that magic one in a hundred T1.:crazy:

Not sure I can take much more of bouncing off the barriers, It feels as if I'm playing a pin ball game.:lol:

Duck Jan 27 2012 5:31 AM

I did some tests, and confirm 6750rpm as the best choice, with a very little margin. Engine torque is enough to pull the car with early or later rpms.

Keep messing up that 2nd sector, kinda goes "ah nice first sector", WALL
I was suffering similar fate specially at the double left hander prior to the hairpin, throwing the back end with excitement sometimes hitting the wall and ruining a good T1-T2 Combination.

Quote:

T1 is driving me crazy. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Had a couple. 0xx but mostly it just stinks. If I can figure it out I'll be in pretty good shape.
Same here :drool:, i went mad trying to get T1 time lower i even used the orginal pit intrance once or twice thinking that it will make it easier to tackle the late apex into turn one, that's why progressive braking helps alot there i think.:rolleyes:

Quote:

Reluctant to say this since ill cost me board position, but stay tight to the inside and stay in 4th for turn 1. You have to brake early, not light the tyres up and not run wide. Turn 2 is obvious and that's it for 30.0 or just under.
This is interresting:tup:. I'll try that first thing tonight.

Quote:

That's pretty much how I'm doing it, braking point seems critical I think and same for turn 2, get the braking point wrong and the whole lap is already over!
I bounce over turn2 inside kurb (my drive style) the car pushes a lot doing that . Also you have the fact that following the 2nd corner chican you have a considerable straight down and up the tunnel to the double left handers you have to straighten out your exit for better speed on there.

Quote:

Finding this quite tricky, i use the d-pad to steer but im not very good at controlling how the front end bites and then pushes out when getting the power down - might have to play around with the sensitivity.
Having the same problem:scared:, trying to make the turns as tight as possible, T3's technical section is a nightmare for us DS3 users sometimes.

Great pictures Poolhaas im fighting with you in D3, interresting cornering approch from you!



Did some Good T1's but can't put a whole lap together, I did something at the last turn (Tunnel) that i cant duplicate, somehow managed to get the tail out a little on full throttle and had an awsome momentum close to the inside rail all the way till exit.:banghead:
I swear i kept on cursing that ghost as if im not the one who did it.:lol:

It wasn't really an approach, I just came in too fast and turned the wheel a bit harder. And to my surprise, I didn't hit anything :lol:

Still, my fastest :cool:

Help, just pulled a perfect lap (for me anyhow) and the replay has saved with the correct time in the title but it shows a different lap in the replay.

What happened? my best current saved splits are 30.5 and a 28.8 and i roasted them. T1 was sub 30.

WAAAAAAAAAAhHHHHHH i wan't my mummy

I don't think it shows a different lap... The replay shows a different time, and that is your previous best time from that session. The time in the replay title is the correct one.

veightpower Jan 27 2012 10:06 AM

Well, i've done it once i'll do the ker again with bells on. I'm off work with of all things a badly infected bug bite (Left leg thankfully) so i've got the time.
