This is a really enjoyable tt. No tuning, just driving. Love it. First go around splits:

@ MilleRSVR, in Kenny Roberts day the t-shirt read "...170mph". Gotta love technology and fast Italian bikes!

I remember watching Kenny back in the "day". We're about the same age I believe.:)

I have a sweat shirt I bought 20 years ago that says "Life Begins @ 180mph"
I still have it, and wear it. My days of doing 180mph are long gone now.:)

Go Aprilia in the SBK Championship this year.👍

20 years ago I was racing @ Loudon and the t-shirts only went up to 170! It was a tight track then ;). Loved KR but my favorites were Eddy Lawson, Wayne Rainey and Brett Gardner.
Hey we can still go 180 plus some; in the comfort of our living rooms!

If you want your splits to show up on the leaderboard, you'll need to post your splits to three decimal places.

I still don't know where the monkey is... I feel enormously ignorant. :guilty: :p

Whenever I screw up this turn, I blame the monkey. And then the sea-monster is to blame for problems in the corner in pic #1 in the OP. :lol:

Great start Ron, nice one 👍 I'm just beginning to discover what this motor can do around here and loving it. :)

Did you pick this combo Lucas? Great choice mate. 👍

Cool, it means a lot to hear that from you, and everyone else. 👍 As the combo was materializing with guidance from Kevin & the guys, the thought of D1'ers absolutely destroying the track gave me a smile. :) Oh. I even tested it with the DS3, to make sure it was all equal-opportunity. ;)

My neighbor owns one of these cars, and I can tell you first-hand, that the idle and low-revs sounds are spot on. 👍

Racing On! (ok, maybe after the game)
Looking to improve my entrance to the first tunnel, and the hard-right just after that tunnel.

Best of luck Chuk mate 👍 Hope you have a stock of spare foams :sly: I still don't know where the monkey is... I feel enormously ignorant. :guilty: :p

Got a good rhythm going on this lap. No idea how much more I'm looking for, just loving it. Up 0.6 on my previous best with this.

Nice Splits Chris, I had to spend about 10 laps trying to figure out where I was losing half a second, finally managed to hook a complete lap together. There still more time in the first and 3rd sectors as you've proven, I dont think i'll be able to replicate my 2nd sector again :nervous:

Thanks mate. Fantastic sector 2 time 👍 Don't think I can match that.

Have seen a 17.971 as my best 1st sector though, so trying to sew that into a good lap. No overall improvement yet so I'll come back to it later. Should've spent today's GT time on the Lotus at Suzuka but this is a bit addictive. :sly:

I think it would be appropriate if everyone around the world stopped racing for a few hours so that the Merkins don't fall any farther behind!

OK mate, you've got 26 hours, starting..... now! Go!! :gtpflag:
 
Very nice combo Lucas 👍

Loads of improvement to be had in T2...this one was terrible. :crazy: I think I had better check on the boundaries as well.
 
Definitely need to sober up and give this another go tomorrow.

Convinced the wife to get me a wheel for valentines day (she doesnt know she is getting Tiffany's !!!)

Have a nice night fellas!

Go D3 silvers!!!

Thanks Joao! Nice splits!

At the top of the first tunnel, I just bounce off the 2nd-gear rev-limiter. And can usually catch my ghost in the next hard-right, by using less brake. Just proud to match your T3. 👍
 
Hey!!!!!!

I havent been here for a while.... have been busy with some real life... But I'm definitely back this week to celebrate one year of GT5 WRS :)

I will get going with this tonight... and see where I am with you all once again :)

Can't wait to get back into the hotseat!!
 
Nice sector 2 Ron - I'm struggling a bit to maintain my pace through there 👍

Welcome back Joao - good start mate. Good luck, great combo this one :cheers:

Hey Adam mate - welcome back to you too... long time :cheers:

Hello!

Thanks :) Yes, it has been far too long.... Havent touched GT5 in about 5/6 months I think! Will be interesting to get some splits up tonight and compare them to old times.

Its nice to be back though! Hopefully will be around a few more weeks 👍
 
Thanks Chris 👍

Must remember week2 and try not to give to much attention to the first sector.
At that time i was always starting again after the first turn :banghead:
