Steward's Comments:

Drop the traction a bit and allow tuning for the Senna Monza event. It's more fun this way. ;)


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 20 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, June 9th 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:

In OP
Gravitron
Weight: 540kg (All weight reductions + 200kg ballast)​

Car is already 540 kg. Does this mean that car should have +200 kg and full weight is then 740 kg?

But then in OP there's:
Gravitron
Ballast Position Adjustment: Not Allowed​

Got a 22.7 first sector but choked hard and threw it away :(

First place in my division! I'll savor these next 15 min :lol:

Great idea!!! Allowing tuning is the way to go IMO. Really difficult to handle 2nd and 3rd gear stock.
I'll be waiting for someone to post a tranny setting and I'll be running this
 
Saw a .299 first sector immediately after this lap, but binned it. :irked:

The tune may be a bit aggressive, but I think the gears should be good for anyone. :)

I doubt this makes a difference, but Aero Kit A, Rear Wing C, and Other B.

Rear wing will add more downforce: rear stock 1000-2000 and after new rear wing 1005-2020.
 
I meant a difference to how it behaves with that specific tune, I doubt it, but figured I should mention it just in case.
 
As much as I love the Senna content I am finding it incredibly frustrating, mainly the Lotus on Brands Hatch, I am still 1.5 seconds away from silver and getting the car, and just not sure where I can find that time, let alone the almost 5 seconds for the gold time haha

Here is a nice video by Tidgney and his lap .

Just try to use the lines in the video, setting the car up to hit the apex of the turns and then get on the gas. To get silver you do not have to drive all that aggressively, Good luck.
 
Would be happier with a tuning prohibited week, but I guess this'll help me learn the track at least.
 
This car is completely different to the one I drove in the Senna DLC, but it looks the same. :confused:

For now . . .
 
First quick session and only managed one clean lap :lol:
24.567
51.900

This beast is a handful to say the least!
