Steward's Comments: Credit to Sjaak for the idea this week. We've had several people test these cars, and the lap times are surprisingly close. Drive both, pick the one you prefer, and have fun!
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!

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
At least two tires in contact with track at all times.
In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty
No hybrids
No cheating of any kind,these are relaxed races and we are experienced racers, we know what times can be done,and we can read your mind.We will know.
Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules

The deadline is Monday, July 2nd, 2012 11:59pm GMT
GMT is World Time and the basis of every world time zone which sets the time of day and is at the centre of the time zone map. GMT sets current time or official time around the globe. Most time changes are measured by GMT. Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.
I started with the 🤬 until I got a feel for the track and started to feel like I was "flying" then drove the 🤬 until I could beat the 🤬 and I think thats how I plan on doing this one for awhile yet beat car A with car B and then beat car B with car A...I might not ever actually pick one just keep doing this because its a blast man!
Both cars Im using a 4/5 bb but now want to try a 3/5 BB and race them head to head.
14.739
45.251
First clean lap I ever did in one of the cars. haha Man it took forever to beat the other cars lap...beat it by 6 tenths tho. bb 2/6. Gonna switch cars again.
14.750
44.621
I think for me this one car is potentially way quicker being a DS3 driver...only took a handful of laps to beat the other car and I beat it by 1 second. bb 3/5
I dont think Im going to try again with the other car today. Its way harder to drive quick and clean by a huge margin.
I will definitely be running this and I know which car I'll be in. I never used to like Tokyo but the event in the Corvette was some of the most fun I've had on a track so this should be fun.
Great car and track combo. 👍 The left hander before the hill is probably my favourite corner in the game.
Never used to like the track but once you can lap consistently without hitting the wall it's amazing. I will probably ruin a lot of laps in the last sector though.
Ouch! I'm already far too familiar with the barriers. Very tricky on the brakes with both cars but I have a good feeling this week. A good hour-and-a-bit:
14.628
43.968
My T3 was probably rubbish but I have a bit of free time this week put aside for WRS. I did a 14.609 T1 which is my best from today and I think I can squeeze maybe another couple of tenths in T2. Fun cars but I've already made my choice which one I'm using.
Thank you ConRollins. I did the GTA for a few days but...I couldnt get fired up about it.
This Tokyo one is so cool. I never TTed here and man this track has a feel of alot of speed behind you when your on what I call "a run" doing better than youve ever done and your ghost is way behind you in the rearview.
Gives me quite a TT high. haha
Edit: Wow Gooners just looked at the leaderboard, some great splits my man.👍
Yes, the combo is done in arcade mode. The car you choose should be from the arcade car garage (which you cannot tune anyways). Just slap on some Sports Soft tires and you're good to go.
