Lefty you also have a slow motion option on the PS3 video editor.

Time update.
T1 23.839
T2 23.657
 
T1: 0'23.736
T2: 0'23.068

Don't know if I like the frilly bits on.

Phillip.
 
first time giving it a go in this car, and first week participating

T1: 24.241
T2: 24.071

i've done some better sector times so i should be able to shave some off

Man Double D, you are sure knocking down some impressive times. I'm truly impressed. I know why I can't get close to your times, "Global Warming".... :) , they tell me in school that it is to be blamed for everything....lol

Dude your times are head spinning, I think I'm about to declare you a D3 alien. I don't think you cloked your times like mine are because I'm chasing the SE leader board w/ my MR2. Simply breath taking.
 
First 10 laps...

T1: 23.766
T2: 23.163

Fun car. :) Needs some fiddling with the gear ratios and suspension methinks.

Anyone using engine/exhaust tuning parts?
 
I'm very confused about how should I set the suspension...
I'll spend the next few days experimenting, till then I hope I can lead my division

What can say Lefty. I'm loving my G25 and racing with a few guys off GTP last night on comfort and sport tyres learnt me a lot.
Besides going by your T1 & T2 last week I'll need to catch up.

Hate to burst your bubble but I've just nailed your MR2 time In the 4200.

Time Update.
T1 23.835
T2 23.372

No engine or exhaust on my suzi.
 
I think there is a touch of sado-masochism in this combo, so I like it! First splits:
T1: 23.871
T2: 23.022
I'm throwing my hat in the ring this week, and want to make sure whoever takes D3 has to earn it! 👍

RACE ON! :cheers:

I don't know how to even begin to speak to what ever speed you found. I can't even conceve how that is possible w/ that car. My "BLOWN MR2" is a fricken rocket. You must be blasting D1 blazing speed, just amazing.

Excuse me Mr Add, I think you droped your drivers license..........

:lol:

You might want to cloke your times if you make it on to the top 260 World Wide board.

First couple of laps.

23.726
23.291

Probably half a second in it at least.
 
T1: 23.802
T2: 23.470

Ok for starters. T2 is poor almost every lap, very difficult sequence ending in (usually) an awful exit into the tunnel. Few tenths there alone, if I can work out how to not make it go all over the place....
 

Nice T2 mate 👍

Small improvement for me to T2 but 0.2 better to the line:

T1: 23.725
T3: 23.164

Have seen a T1 of 23.607 (not a typo :) ) and a T2 of 23.110 but threw T3 away at the first apex of that last double apex bend. Early days yet though...

Steve (osrg) mate, incredible T2 👍 Time for you to bugger off out of D2, eh? :sly:

Here's my setup if anyone wants to try it: (Edited 14.17 GMT 16/03/2011)

Transmission:
162 mph max - ratios unchanged

LSD:
Initial 10
Power 38
Braking 21

Suspension:
Ride height -15/-20
Spring rate 9.9/10.8
Dampers 5/5
5/5
Anti-roll 4/4
Camber 2.5/2.1
Toe -0.9/2.0

Brakes 4/2

ABS 2

No TC or ASM

:)

Damn I hate comfort tires. Have had a 23.700 T1, but need a lot of work on T2 and T3.
 
I just spent over an hour messing about with tuning and didn't improve at all.

Decided to reset everything back to default to compare with what I'd done. Went over 2 tenths quicker on literally my first lap with the defaults. :rolleyes:

T1: 23.709
T2: 23.341

Edit:

Yes please. 👍 Will give it a go tomorrow. It won't be slower than mine, that's for sure.

Hehehehehe..... cheers for the props Chris. I've seen a low 23.5xx (that's not a typo either:drool:) T1 more than half a dozen times, and am consistently seeing high 23.5 T1's but just cannot get the lefthander into the tunnel right. If i can get my head around that, i should be harassing Animera for P1.

And as for "Buggering off out of D2:dunce:"..... well i'm hoping that my first 4 weeks efforts will be enough to pop me into D1 Bronze when they get around to promotions.
 
Yep Steve that Left hander is a bugger!!

I'm liking this challenge this week, have to think alot about car placement and steering and throttle inputs.

The top laps are going to show off some awesome skill i think, i hope i can hold my own and stay up there.
 
Small improvement:

T1: 23.807
T2: 23.312

Good enough for now, will revisit in a few days. Try not to go toooo fast now people ;)

Brilliant splits Chukabilly - will have to work pretty 'ard to top those.

Also had a faster overall lap of which I didn't save the replay, Though It logged It online. Never mind I hope to improve anyway.
 
I've seen a low 23.5xx

I had a couple of .5xx and once a .4xx already. This set was working good for the first corner, but that was all. :lol:

My first splits. :)

23.684
22.887

And if anyone will try. But i say, better don´t do it. :D :lol:
