Improved my first lap a bit to 1:06.338 Too bad I screwed up the second lap. I don't even get frustrated about it any more I just accept that if I do well on the first lap I'm probably going to get excited and mess up the second hahahaha.

Edit: Like right now, I got my fastest first lap split times ever of 28.76x and 52.7xx and then messed up on the chicane. LOL

Im exactly the same lol :(, although i can guarentee on the first lap now that 99% of time i do esses what i used to call perfect and 1% so overly perfect i screw up lol :P. as i have like 6 time references in the first sector alone lol.
 
2:10.2 tonight..... GRRRR cant believe it, earlier on was easily on a gold and stupid chicane mess up with a slight wheel on grass :s.

My RSI problems are kicking in again now though can feel my wrists straining :S.
 
Well with the amount of mid 1:05's iv had today its been a joke that i don't have gold, anyhow if i dont get it in my next 3 hour grind from 9 - 1am tomorrow my capture cards here so will be doing live attempts (If it all connects up and works that is :P).

Hopefully though i will get it as my wrists are crying for a break lol.


edit: 2:10.1!!!!!! AHHHHHHH damn my scruffy first lap! O joys *Prays for no corruption* ps3 crashed on saving replay.

You're gonna have it any time now.

Edit: Just got a time 85 thousandths of a second off silver. I found several areas where I could improve my time and was able to successfully do it for a few of em. If I didn't go so slow through the final chicane on the last lap I would have had it!

Sick, I just nabbed Silver and got my first sub 1:05 lap... a 1:04.994 LOL. Only 1.355 seconds away from gold =)

Nice work!!! :D :D :D, good news is my capture card after working from 9am this morning (now19:30) is finally working!!! :D, so later tonight will stream some attempts along with tomorrow!
 
Another stupid mistake on last chicane.

Although if people want proof head over to my livestream and check out the Suzuka attempts, at 22 mins in, was my best laps combined which is also proof of the ability to do this on a DS3.

Ill be streaming all day tomorrow until its done!

Good luck man, I put the game down right after I got that silver. I'll probably start up on improving my times again tomorrow. Amazing how shaving off those last few tenths of a second can be so difficult =\
 
Ye its insanely hard, reason why gold hasn't been got already because of that. You can get away with the odd tiny tiny mistake but you get 1 slightly bigger than tiny mistake and its gold off.
 
What a stupid day lol.

I've had 4 2:10.1's. I've broken all my records on all laps and all sectors and still no gold. E.g. i got a 1:05.3, and then on hot lap i got so nervous i did a 1:05 dead lol :(. Although its getting better.

Long stint soon 20:00 - midnight!! Hopefully will get at 20:02 :P.

Damn that would be frustrating. Something for me to look forward to hahaha

O yes very very frustrating and you can add another .1 to that number...... ahh silly first lap cost me that gold there 1:06, 1:04 :S.

Streaming tomorrow most of day again, evening im in a league race (As far as im aware) and straight after will be streaming again (Unless i do during day ofc :D). Lets hope to get that 1:05.3 and 1:03.7 which has been kicking me. :P.
 
2:09.915!!!!

ITS DONE!!!!

ITS BLOODY DONE!!!!"!

I CANT STOP SHAKING AND ITS DONE!!!!!!

AHHHH!!! :D: :D: D:D:D::D:D:D:D:P LOLOLOL :D:D:D:>D:a nfdu9apbfguiabdefiug
 
I lowered my first lap time down to a 1:06.117. I'd really like to get it under 1:06 so I can be a little more comfortable on the second lap.
 
I'm a DS3 user also.

I could only get Gold on monza (after like 20 silvers with 1/9 second of Gold).

In Nurburgring and Suzuka I can't get more tha bronze and Suzuka I could only do Bronze by like 0.050 seconds on Bronze :O after like 1 hour...
 
Still working on it. I got a slightly better lap time on my first lap than my best with a 1:05.9 even. I've still got to get to the point where I can do those kind of laps so consistently that I get over this whole nervous wreck thing I do on the second lap. It's like I don't even know how to drive.

Congrats to Tidgney for beating Suzuka and good luck to Instrumental to do it too. Any chance either one of you could upload the actual replay file from GP/F somewhere, I'll trying that next and it would be really helpful?
 
Cheers toonari, i'll be uploading nurb and monza tutorials soon just been rather busy recently catching up on uni work :P.

Nice 1 instrumental keep at it! you'll get there!! :D. Once you've done it you never want to see Suzuka again :P.
