Steward's Comments:

My personal favourite of all the incarnations of the Scooby. No shortage of traction this week but precision braking and turn-in are paramount. The car is pretty well balanced on these tyres but push too hard and the barriers are waiting...

:cheers:

Viewing your T1 & T2 Time Splits:
  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay' (See pic below)
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Gallery' option.
  • Live timing monitor does not work properly, so we have to use a small trick to view splits.
  • While viewing your Replay, pause the lap by hitting start, before the end of the first sector.
  • While keeping the replay paused, advance the replay, using the forward arrow on the replay HUD. This will advance the replay to the end of the first sector. That's your T1 split, write it down.
  • Advance the replay again. That will show the lap to date time on the screen, this is your first and second sector time, added together.
  • To post your T1 & T2 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual T2 split time, the Fetchbot will do that for you.

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
  • At Least 2 Tires must be in contact with track at all times.

    • In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires in-line would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
    • If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
  • Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track.
  • No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
  • If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty
  • No hybrids
  • No cheating of any kind,these are relaxed races and we are experienced racers, we know what times can be done,and we can read your mind.We will know.
  • Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules

Thread rules:

The following information cannot be discussed in this thread (they can, however, be discussed on MSN or via other private conversation methods):

  • Total Lap Time
  • Any information which can be used to infer your total laptime

The following information can be discussed in this thread :

  • The first 2 splits: T1 & T2 times
  • Any settings discussion.

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 14 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):

  • Then attach your 'Best Lap'/'Ghost' replay in zip file form. Everyone submits a replay instead of listing a lap time.
  • You will need to put something in the message body in order to begin a conversation. It doesn't matter what you put, it can even be 1 letter or symbol. Nobody but the Fetchbot is going to see it, so it's sort of pointless, anyhow.
  • You will get an automated response within 15min, letting you know whether your submission was accepted, or if you had an error.
  • If you have an error, don't panic. Just review the instructions for submission and submit again. If you are having trouble and cannot figure it out, please post your question in the race thread.

  • Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the body: "get entry"
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the body of "remove entry".
  • If you want to submit multiple times in the week that is still not a problem. Just reply to the conversation with your new time and new replay. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • See this screenshot as an example on how to submit:

  • The deadline is Monday, April 28th 11:59pm GMT
  • If you are unsure of the deadline try this site


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.
​

Replay Checking:
  • Everyone is required to submit a replay for verification. This happens when you submit to the Fetchbot, and the replays will be visible in the leaderboard, once we've reached the event deadline
  • Participants will be expected to check each others' replays for cleanliness, for replays marked in the Results thread as (Check Needed)
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification


Good luck, :gtplanet:

Been waiting for this to go up :). Not my favourite track, but the car is fun to throw around it.
After 30 laps and 1 rollover (moon gravity kicked in on the first right hander after T1) I have these...
14.628
30.611
 
15,117
31,317

The lap has leftie action due to a kerb (not extreme).
I've always liked this cramped track.
 
Whoever picked this combo, i love you.

Is it acceptable to change the rear wing or does effect the aero?

Seems like an easy car to drive, but those walls are never far away... :nervous:

14.548
30.162

Managed a low .4 at T1 so a bit of room for improvement.
 
I adore this car!! Been driving the thing for years now, golden wheels and all. Good pics, there's just no other color for this car. But then London.
Been looking for a term describing the fear of walls but it seems there isn't one. A week of Wallphobia anyone?
 
This car is a little beauty, thought it was time to have a go again on home turf. Played around with b/b settled on 9/10

14.416
29.950
 
Looks like good fun! Too bad I can't partake this week either for vary-is reasons. Nice combo Chris!
 
First little test run.

14.552
30.085

I need to redeem myself from the terrible t3 i had last time we ran this track. Lets see if i learned my lesson.
 
With the little bit of time I have for GT6 these days I'll prob. be beating my head on the wall with my GTA effort so good luck everyone 👍
 
NOTE - I have made the following addition to the event rules:
  • Torque split adjust: Optional
It can be adjusted either in the settings menu or using the in-race RA menu. Just to be clear, this means you can adjust both BB and Torque Split but nothing else.
 
I used this car for seassonal. If I remove all parts instaled, weight reduction, aero will it be leagal?

You unfortunately cannot remove the weight reduction.

EDIT: Sorry I'm wrong. Yes you will be legal

Yeah it will be fine once you remove all parts, including any ballast weight or adjustment, wings, etc. The only custom things allowed are wheels and paint. 👍
