Submission:
All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 93 Submission ) to (Vaxen):





  • Please submit your time in the following format on a single line:

Why Use GMT?:
GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the centre of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.

Time verification:

Save your ghost replay and keep it at least a full two weeks after the event's deadline:






  • Racers, named by the OLR Admin staff, (if any) will be required to submit a replay for verification
  • Any submitted time is subject to a time verification request
  • When a time verification has been requested, the concerned racer must provide the correct replay within seven days of the request
  • Failure to do so will result in the removal of the unverified submission from the results table
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

Good Luck!!

Actually when I say "pointless", I don't mean pointless at all! It very much has a point - overtaking, like you say (I don't know much about it, but I have a feeling it was put in specifically for F1).

I love the faster GT corner in its place. Reminds me of turn-6 at Laguna...except backwards.
 
I'm very rusty after months without touching Prologue, but I'll give it a try.

Agreed, the GT version is much more fun than the F variation.
 
Updated:
T1: 24.864
T2: 1'02.575

Fun combo, good to be back as well.

nooooooo, my favourite car on a track I haven't done for ages and I can't participate as I'm in the states for 2 weeks :( I guess I'll just have to avail myself of the free booze, ciggies and plenty of gambling!! good luck guys and enjoy the power of the rotary!
 
Hi guys, sorry I havn't been able to compete in the last month or so, i've been just too busy with other commitments. Anyway i'll have time this week :).

Here's my first splits after a quick run. A fair bit of improvement to come if I can only string three good sectors together.

T1: 24.737
T2: 1'02.307

Good luck all.
 
First Session I feel was very good for me and my controller.... I wish I could get the manual trans down with the controller. Man I gotta get me a wheel!!!!
T1 - 25.092
T2 - 1'02.864
 
/\ I think that depends on the person and what you are used to do. I'm considerably faster with a controller and had no problems shifting with it. But it's slightly different if at all than the controller.

Well, I know I can get a faster lap, but so far I've only done that without it being clean.

Not sure how I even managed to get a lap done last night as tired as I was.
 
sorry, i know im not qualified yet, i was just wondering why the run has to be done while your offline?

It's to prevent other WRS players from seeing your final laptime (and replay, if you get in the top 10 online) - This week, we can only reveal our split times. On some weeks, only the final laptime can be revealed, and split times cannot be revealed.
 
I love the combo this week. Will definitely find more time this week than I was able to last week.

First splits:

T1: 24.946
T2: 1'02.911
 
T1: 0'24.518
T2: 1'01.793

T1: 0'24.598
T2: 1'01.708

Do you find some kind of limitation with pad & manual shifting?
Click to expand...

I have tried a couple different button layouts. Currently I use the dpad becasue the analog stick is to sensitive for me. Also I use R2 and L2 as my brake and gas, I tried putting the shift button as R1 and L1 but for some reason find it really hard to downshift while braking. Plus I used a wheel for all of my GT4 and havent been comfortable with manual on the controller since then.

BTW... I have mild carpal tunnel in both my hands due to my previous occupation so doing any more than 10 laps really hurts.

Try using [] and X for shifting, easy to use when either braking or gas.

Very scruffy first corner, little bit of improvement in the long right too. Fun combo once you get in to it.
