  • The use of the clutch that is found on the G25, G27, and other high end racing wheels is strictly prohibited.

Steward's Comments:
We get to try out another of the tracks that are new to us with GT5. You'll find this combo to be much less difficult than any of the first 3, but finding those tenths at the end of the week will still be equally as frustrating. ;)


Viewing your T1 & T2 Lap Time Splits:




  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay'.

  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
  • While Viewing Your Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times
  • To post your T1 and T2 Splits, simply post the sector times that are shown in the live timing monitor.
  • The WRS Fetchbot has been updated and will now add your splits together!

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 Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.

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, :gtplanet:

Nice one!

What I still don't know is whether or not the specifics of the arcade version of the car is in any way influenced by the setup of the same car that you have in your garage.
 
Nice combo. I just ran some laps here in the past half hour and although they are not time posting worthy, there are TONS of opportunities for amazing pictures in photo mode. The sweeping lefts and rights, the vistas, this track is really nice to look at. The super smooth among us will really rise to the top of this one. Thanks again admins, going to be a great week.

If you use the Arcade Only car, as specified, it's not affected by your garage car setup.
 
First splits for me. Am kinda liking this weeks combo.... Will be hard work getting the splits right down!

T1: 37.916
T2: 19.741
 
First crack at it, after 20 laps. I managed to shave off 3 seconds but my splits are still high ugh.

T1: 38.176
T2: 19.892
 
Hay Shigegaki, I see from your Sig that your waiting for BF3 like my dad and I are. Maybe we can have a GTP asult team?
 
Of course, although add my non GTP account since my GTP account is only for GT5.

Kevin,

Do you know if the leaderboards for the new week get created on Sunday's for us? Or is it on Monday's?
 
After a brisk back and forth with old Dad I finally got the best of him w/ an ok time until next week.

T1: 37.997
T2: 20.030
:)
 
After I recovered from the beat down I took from Little, I gathered it back up to post this:
T1: 38.025
T2: 19.529
 
T1: 39.794
T2: 20.828

Now, if I could just get through the last turn like that lap when T1 & T2 are better.
 
At first I hated driving this slowly, but maybe it'll help me to be more smooth.

38.021
20.057
 
First splits after an hour or so at the wheel. Still feel like I'm leaving a little on the table in the hairpin at the end of T2 but a clean lap otherwise.

T1: 37.243
T2: 19.458
 
first 10 lap session for me.
Best splits came on lap 3.

T1 37.885
T2 19.826

Need to tidy up the last hairpin 👍
