haha feeling a bit rusty here mate :nervous: but I'm sure Zoky has quite a bit left in the tank 👍

will be interesting as the week goes on for sure :cheers:
 
Improved each sector by 0.4s (1.9s total lap) but drifting through the turn right before the T3 line my tire bumped the side of the road. And of course the lap was GT-legal, so I had to save the ghost just to torment myself the rest of the week. :(

I've updated the first post with the following -

Viewing your T1 & T2 Lap Time Splits:
  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay'.
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
  • While Viewing Your Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times
  • To post your T1 and T2 Splits, simply post the sector times that are shown in the live timing monitor.
  • The WRS Fetchbot has been updated and will now add your splits together!

See this update -

No need to re-post old splits, but be sure you use this format when posting splits from now on.
 
What a thoroughly unenjoyable combo. :yuck:

Edit: Let the record show that this in no shape or form indicates any criticism aimed towards the race admins. All combo's does not suit everyone and it is obvious by just skimming through the thread that many do enjoy it. In WRS it is considered a bit uncourteous to not submit a final time if you have posted splits during the week so I am a bit unhappy with myself for not getting a feel for the combo first before I committed.

I never took you to be this type. I know not everyone is going to be happy, but it seems to me that a lot of people really like this. And, you're still participating.

First stint of about 10 laps to try it on for size. Like it much better than last week :P

First splits:
T1: 16.919
T2: 25.763
T3: 21.435

Much time to be gained, especially in the chicane at the end :indiff: Need to grow some *$!&* and really attack that thing in stead of playing it safe and just cruise my way through :D
 
New splits:

T1: 0'16.190
T2: 0'25.516
T3: 0'21.130

I am so angry right now, I just about needed a new wheel. Had a 15.850 and 41.440 lap going and completely lost it in the last chicane.👎
 
Improved all three sectors for a decent improvement in overall lap time.

T1: 16.038
T2: 25.103
T3: 21.005

Got over-excited and lost over a tenth to my best T4 time though. :crazy:

@ corne. True. I watched my replay 3 or 4 times trying to pause it at the right moment. It was only when I went into photo mode that I noticed the extra hard stuff.
 
Well looking at the splits im defintely not getting the second sector right.
Can get under 16 on the T1 and make up some ground on the T3 but the left hander into the tunnel is where work needs to be done.
Might increase the rear BB.
 
I seem to get stuck behind my ghost constantly until all of a sudden I find 2 or 3 tenths...amazing that a track I have raced on since the beginning is now starting to unfold in front of me!!
I should have got into this WRS sooner!! :dunce:

T1: 16.789
T2: 25.963
T3: 21.458
 
Yay new splits.

T1: 15.838
T2: 25.167
T3: 20.926

I just tried time trialing with the HUD, the track map and the ghost off and I'm getting better times probably because I don't mess up the last sector after doing a great T3 and it is way more enjoyable. 👍
 
3rd session already, first splits:
T1: 15.821
T2: 25.201
T3: 20.851

I love this combo. Hoping to improve quite a bit.
 
Can I just state the obvious for my own confirmation - that concrete area in T1 around turns 3 (just before the right hander into the tunnel) is verboten, right?
 
First ones for me. Finished my week 1 run today, now the Academy is back up. I'm being spread a little thin on the TT's. :P


15.892
25.614
21.440

Nope, keeping it simple this week. All hard surfaces are track, just don't hit the walls.

After about 50 laps of :banghead: last night, I came up with this:

T1: 16.682
T2: 25.104
T3: 21.272

I know I have about .5 left in me in T1, but every time I get anywhere near that, I give it all back in T2 :grumpy:, which was super frustrating until I realised that my T2 is pretty damn quick compared to those around me on the leaderboard.

EDIT: As of right now, I am 12th fastest in T2, but 59th in T1. Going to have nightmares about turns 1 and 2.
 
First session for me tonight. I LIKE THIS COMBO nice work:)

T1: 16.276
T2: 25.839
T3: 21.628

So annoying that work take up so much of my time to play GT:ouch:

Be gentle with the first couple of corners, aggression will cause you to lose all momentum in to the tunnel, though I imagine it's a lot harder with a pad than a wheel. Nice T2.
 
Hmmmm... Wonder why my wheel doesn't show up on the leaderboard? Any suggestions?

Edit: Found the answer myself. DFGT:dunce:
