15min run on N3's and I have a 1'25.6. Think its a pretty solid time, still another .2 or .3 to be had with some more practice. Will be happy with a low 25 I'd say.

Not sure how that stacks up, would have to wait for Chris to try it and give a reference, as he also did the WRS 👍
 
Results from the offline TT will be up in a few hours, but you can get a preview here.

Sounds fast to me! 👍


-------------------------------------

Jon, I tried your tune with a custom gearbox and it was quite a bit faster than the Full Customized Suspension. 👍 1'27.5xx best lap on N3's.
 
Solid times from the top WRS guys 👍.

I did a bit more practise and now have a 1'25.5. That low 25 doesnt seem that easy to get now :lol:, Car seems to understeer a bit on entry then transitions to oversteer on the exit, so it really makes it tough to carry high mid corner speed.

Here is my suspension setup, shout out to Erik (Arora) for providing a solid base to start from 👍.

-15/0
11.2/8.0
6/4
6/4
6/4

2.0 / 1.0
0/0

Edit, also running gearing to suit the following.
3rd gear Turn 1,2 4th turn3.
2nd gear for sharp right after T1, 4th gear for kink, 5th for uphill right, then 4th for double left, then 3rd for the last double right.

Sorry can't make this event now as im working til 10pm gmt and back in thursday at 7am gmt :(. Catch you guys at the next WRS online race 👍
 
I'll try and get a practice run in tonight sometime - not done any online running with this one so far. My WRS time was about .35 off my theoretical best (which I never actually reach anyway :sly:) but couldn't run it on Sunday or Monday for lack of time... never would've caught Mark anyway - crazy fast time that :crazy:

What tyres have you decided on now guys?

Roughly what times did you guys manage?

Thanks for posting your setups too! :cheers:
 
I would not go off of my times. :P

My best tonight still stands in the room, and it's a 27.2.

I just wanted a tune that would keep me from spinning tomorrow night. :lol:

Pekka's best lap was a 26.5 IIRC.

Mine was 26.7 running low 27's pretty consistantly.

Our practice turned into a drift contest yesterday. :sly:

I'm getting into the GIFs too. :D

Nice! 👍
-The drift, and gif that is.

I'm not sure I went 1 lap without some sort of drift. Passing by the Colosseum almost always sent me spinning - tons of smoke. - Just ask Kevin ;)
My PB was low 28's IIRC. Hopefully I'll sort it out in practice otherwise it's going to be a bit messy....
 
Sorry guys, looks like I'm not going to make it back in time to race. There's an outside chance if I'm lucky so can you move my status to reserve please? Can't access the form from my mobile. Good luck to all racing, its a tough one. Best I managed in the few laps I got in was a 1'26.0

I tried to move you to 'reserve' but it looks like Speedy beat me to it ;)

You just hate Italy :D
C'mon, admit it....

Keeping this car sideways how you get through corners right?
Looks like an Alfa, handles like an insane Lotus :crazy:

Sorry about that, forgot to update the OP yesterday.
The races are 35 laps. 👍

Between Quali and the race, it usually takes about 1 hr 20 minutes to complete.

And I guess it starts at 8:00pm GMT +1 right? If so I'll register on the document in OP. (Already submitted my info in the comprehensive guide)
 
Quali actually starts in 30 minutes or so.

European Time Slot

3:00 PM Eastern / 12:00 PM Pacific / 19:00 GMT

Currently there are no european drivers in the room. A few Canadians, and an Australian for now.
I'm wondering if DST messed things up a bit for some drivers?
 
I think you should put 20:00 BST instead of GMT now. Then it just stays the same time and doesn't confuse people.
