Race Specifics:

  • No Contact with walls or other objects (including cones and invisible walls). Any contact with objects, no matter how minor, will result in a DQ.
  • Tarmac, red and white rumble strips, and other hard surfaces, such as cobbles, are all track.


Steward's Comments:
This week's combo is a result of a collaborative effort among many members of the race admin staff. Particular credit to WRP001 for the combo idea and title, and w-g-e and Sjaak for building the thread, the fantastic new pics and graphics, etc.

You'll need to be sure and break the car in to get up to full power, but after that's done, nothing on this car can be altered or tuned, so it's basically just like an arcade mode week - No tuning!

A road car on sports tires at Nurburgring - Sounds like a winner. :)

Viewing your Time Splits:

  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not 'Save Replay'.
  • To view your best lap replays, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
  • While in the 'Replay Theater' you can view your total Oval lap time in the replay summary.
  • While Viewing Your Road Course Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times.
  • To post your T1, T2 and T3 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!

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 94 Submission) to (WRSFetchbot):





  • Please submit your time in the following format on a single line:
    Time: X'XX.XXX
    (Example-) Time: 1'10.100
  • Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the body: "get entry"
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the body of "remove entry".
  • If multiple times are submitted, only the last submission will be counted.
  • Please include in your submission PM your final lap time
  • The deadline is Monday, December 10th 11:59pm GMT
  • If you are unsure of the deadline try this site.



Why Use 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 Although GMT has been replaced by atomic time (UTC) it is still widely regarded as the correct time for every international time zone.


Time verification:


Save your ghost replay and keep it at least a full two weeks after the event's deadline:





  • Racers, named by the OLR Admin staff, (if any) will be required to submit a replay for verification
  • Any submitted time is subject to a time verification request
  • When a time verification has been requested, the concerned racer must provide the correct replay within seven days of the request
  • Failure to do so will result in the removal of the unverified submission from the results table
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

Don't type half a swear word and make your own bypass. If it's a word that's filtered by the site swear filter, either type the whole word, use the 🤬 smiley, or pick a word that does not require the filter.

I've already edited your post.

My first clean lap:

46.086
35.524
29.220
52.267
38.948
27.289
51.200
35.486
30.332


Hopefully I'll be able to produce a respectable result this week, seeing as this is the track that put me in D1 Bronze in the first place :)

EDIT - New splits:

45.744
35.008
29.004
51.151
38.851
27.130
50.156
35.289
29.812

The car seems to be very unstable at high speed, which can make some of the high speed corners very difficult indeed. I'd suggest taking these corners very easy when just starting out, otherwise you'll just fly off the course and ruin the entire lap.

I've run this track quite a bit, but, it's not my favorite. Interested to see how the car handles! Nice combo. 👍
Wow, lots of splits to write down.

Oh, yeah 👍

Totally called it without a clue, though I was half-suspecting maybe Top Gear was a slight possibility too.

I also see someone else found the hilarity involved in washing this car - I already had Bruce break it in just because I could :sly:

I think I'll pass on this one because of having to tie up money in PSN's bank. Looks like fun but I could use a week off any way. Best of luck everyone :)

I haven't been to this track since the qualifier 20 some odd weeks ago. I've never been quick here and I have no idea how much time to expect to gain on this but I will keep running until I can no longer keep up with my ghost.

Litchi did day that the Ring wasn't a strong track for him and that was why he qualified where he did, and very recently at that. As the week goes on then I'm sure the rest of D3 will be at his pace or better...

How cool, I'm all good w/ that :) my ISP is down now but when it's back up I'll head over to PSN & reel me in a Vette w/ a bad paint job. Thanks for the heads up 👍

I was tired, but couldn't sleep so I thought I'd have a quick run to break in the car some. 7 laps later I'm wide awake and buzzing :D. Not going to sleep just yet so I'll have to do a few more :sly:
And at long last we get a Corvette that sounds nice :D.
