Thanks man. I've had a few low 9.4s, but never beaten my T2, I really nailed it after that too, it was almost a perfect lap I think apart from the 0.1 I lost at the start.

I'll post my replay for Apricot and Tsukuba at the end the deadline, maybe someone can make a video out of them? I think it would be great to see everybody's replays and see what different lines and things they take with the F1.
 
ARGH! This combo is driving me insane!

I beaten my previous time by .15 with a slightly worse T2 split. However! I've thrown away 3 T1s of 9.3xx and 2 T2s of 21.3xx. If I managed to get a good finish after a T2 of 21.3xx, I'd would be awfully close to another second barrier, I will try all night if I have to, to see if I can break it.
 
:scared: 21.3 what are you kidding me lol, you must have some crazy setup going on there dude, feel like shareing it with the rest of us 💡
 
About to kill myself right now.

Got a best lap with the following splits.
T1 - 9.344
T2 - 21.346

BUT, Tensed up and drove 2 wheels on the grass on the middle of the back straight, missed changing into 5 straight away, went sideways over the start finish line, and still beat my best lap by 0.05.

I don't think that other second barrier is possible, but if I don't get between it and the half second, I'm seriously going to stab my brother.

EDIT: Time submitted. Leaderboard Updated
 
Time Submitted

I must say i'm glad the Tsukaba test is over for me, it was a highly frustraiting experience. Does anybody know how to turn ghost replays off or am I stuck with them?

Just got word the Jump_Ace will make a video from my Tsukuba replay. So everyone send a big thanks his way!

All Hail Jump_ace, the mighty video guy... :cheers:

By the way, when will the results be up Ashley? And will we have another warm up before the start of the season?
 
Only got a few laps in...

T1 '09.986
T2 '23.043

Tuning nightmare! I think my set-up may be too hard. I hard a great deal of push in the slow corners, and the rear keeps stepping out under braking...
 
Ok guys, I'm really bored right now.

As an unoffical preseason test whilist we wait for results, want to have a spin around Tsukuba Wet?

Since it's not counted towards anything, I don't mind if you post your complete lap-times for the Wet track. I'll run a few quick laps now to get us started.
 
I havnt got many times in from the normal Tsukuba testing, only about 4-5, il give it until the end of tomorrow and then post results from both Apricot hill and Tsukuba.

As for Tsukuba Wet :nervous: I struggle in a Civic! Should be fun though.
 
Right, I’ll get my time together tomorrow. Whoops!

Sorry, I don't agree. There is a deadline for a reason, and if people don't submit a time by it, it's their own fault. If I had of known I had an extra 2 days to get a time in by I would of gone out and done some extra laps.

In my opinion, 1 minute after the deadline, is too late. Why give people extra time because they didn't read/follow the rules?

They have no meaning, what’t the problem?

They may be fine now. But I hope this isn't a precedent for the rest of the season. It shouldn't really matter if it means anything or not, the rules say 'You may run as many laps as you like until the deadline', and as far as I'm concerned the deadline was nearly 2 days ago for Tsukuba, and over a week for Apricot.

I crammed in 3 solid hours straight the night before the deadline so I could get the time I wanted before it. Again, regardless of whether this race means anything or not, why should people be getting extra time to submit because they didn't follow the rules, whilist the people who did follow the rules get less?
 
Tweaked a few settings, ran a few laps, here are the results

Tsukaba Wet - Time: 51.484

Tried dry settings first, managed a 52.xxx

And I haven’t run a signle lap since the deadline. It never said you had to submit by a certain time (unless it did and you didn't quote it).
 
i agree with, Casio. the time i believe was midnight of your time on either the 15th or 22nd depending on which track.
 
It is a little frustraiting having to wait to see what the final times are just because some people havnt bothered to send their times in. It is true that Ashley does not give a deadline for people to give him their times, he only gives a deadline for people to do their testing by. Ashley, for future tests and for the races, if you could make a clear deadline on when we must send you our times that would be great, thanks.

Ashley.
At the end of each weeks testing you will submit your fastest time via PM to myself, only submit once....

I assume the end of each weeks testing was at nidnight of the last day that you are allowed to run laps a.k.a The Deadline

Yes I would assume that too, but assumeing and knowing are two different things, what I assume and what you assume isnt neccesarily what someone else will assume, no matter how obvious it may be.

By the way did anyone else end up doing the Tsukaba wet test or was I the only one lol.

Shouldn't need to be assumption. In future it should say something like, 'All times must be submitted by 11:59pm G.M.T March 4' (for example).

I ran 3 laps with the same set-up as my dry. My first and best lap was a 52.0xx something, havn't had a run since.
