Steward's Comments:

More speed and power this week. :) Its a Ferrari.... at Monza.... a match made in heaven Italy. Not just any Ferrari either... probably the Ferrari. A great blast unleashing its power round here on sports softs and a nice challenge finding traction.

I dare you not to like it. I very dare you. :mischievous:

: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 2 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, February 3rd 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:

Looks freakishly fun :drool:

Just to clarify, there's no need for engine breakins in GT6, only the oil change is necessary 👍
 
As time is fixed now, what is the time settings?
 
Thinking of the another. Never do seven things at once or try to. LOL They finally noticed track temp makes a big difference.

I'm amazed that for the second week running we have such a powerful car to play with, I was convinced that the second week would see a more sedate pace, I guess I was wrong!

Oh and btw I'm not complaining, this gives me the perfect excuse to add this car to my garage.

What about "Improve Body Rigidity" - I have that installed, is that okay or do I need to buy another car?

And I'm at 828hp after Oil Change.

I was hoping "totally stock" wouldn't leave any room for doubt or interpretation.... :sly:

No modification of any kind. You can fit S3 tyres, change the brake balance and that is all. 👍

...It does? I was running at apricot at random times...

So I need to buy a new car then.

I already had it on the car, so that was why I was asking.

No modification at all meaning no paint job either?

Guess you need new pics then . . .
 
Color doesn't have any impact on performance, it's probably ok. I'm going to make mine matte black.

I also see no mention of oil change in this post - that's why I was asking if I had the correct hp because it said in OP 788 + oil change and break-in.

it says 788bhp + oil change that mean you can add oil change :)
hp rating will also vary depending your region setting as well. :)

Okay. So here's my first splits - oil change, ss tyres and bb adjustment ONLY - no paint job or chassis improvements:
Disregard - stupid Grip was on Low. Graaagh!
 
Just bought one of these for the CCCL photo comp last week... which was at Monza. Go figure. :D
 
Huh. Fetchy must've gotten confused when he saw my post. Let me try again.

27.508
1'01.458

Does is it? Do you have any proof of this? At what track temp. is beneficial for a fast lap?
