Steward's Comments:
This car is not a bathtub, unlike some other cars we tried on the mountain. :crazy:
Stock tranny tops out before The Chase, so we are allowing transmission and downforce tuning.
This car is a really nice drive, and I thought I'd get @MadMax and @mcsqueegy's blessing before unleashing it. :D



Viewing your Time Splits:
  • You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay' (See pic below)
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Gallery' option.
  • Live timing monitor does not work properly, so we have to use a small trick to view splits.
  • While viewing your Replay, pause the lap by hitting start, before the end of the first sector.
  • While keeping the replay paused, advance the replay, using the forward arrow on the replay HUD. This will advance the replay to the end of the first sector. That's your T1 split, write it down.
  • Advance the replay again. That will show the lap to date time on the screen, this is your first and second sector time, added together.
  • To post your T1 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual T2 split time, the Fetchbot will do that for you.

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
  • At Least 2 Tires must be 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 in-line 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

Thread rules:

The following information cannot be discussed in this thread (they can, however, be discussed on MSN or via other private conversation methods):

  • Total Lap Time
  • Any information which can be used to infer your total laptime

The following information can be discussed in this thread :

  • The first 3 splits: T1, T2, & T3 times
  • Any settings discussion
full

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 140 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):

  • Then attach your 'Best Lap'/'Ghost' replay in zip file form. Everyone submits a replay instead of listing a lap time.
  • You will need to put something in the message body in order to begin a conversation. It doesn't matter what you put, it can even be 1 letter or symbol. Nobody but the Fetchbot is going to see it, so it's sort of pointless, anyhow.
  • You will get an automated response within 15min, letting you know whether your submission was accepted, or if you had an error.
  • If you have an error, don't panic. Just review the instructions for submission and submit again. If you are having trouble and cannot figure it out, please post your question in the race thread.
  • Users can ask the bot for the current submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week XX Get Entry" and any text in the body.
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week XX Remove Entry" and any text in the body.
  • If you want to submit multiple times in the week that is still not a problem. Just reply to the conversation with your new time and new replay. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • See this screenshot as an example on how to submit:
medium.png


  • The deadline is Monday, September 26th 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.

Replay Checking:
  • Everyone is required to submit a replay for verification. This happens when you submit to the Fetchbot, and the replays will be visible in the leaderboard, once we've reached the event deadline
  • Participants will be expected to check each others' replays for cleanliness, for replays marked in the Results thread as (Check Needed)
  • Video replays are not accepted as a form of verification

Good luck, :gtpflag:

I haven`t got the slightest idea on what an DOG-Clutch is ?

Just the fully adjustable transmission Lars.
 
Hi,

be carefull with this rare car: "Only one R390 road car was ever built" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_R390_GT1

Very nice combo, I would learn Bathurst for a long time, now it's the best opportunity to do so.


Edit: no idea how to set aero, brakes or transmission. Just took a setup from the tuningbase.

After tons of mistakes finally found a clear lap (which I completely messed up in the last sector):

21.517
1:11.317
1:48.934

cheers
D.

Middle is pretty icky, never been much good here. Tried a few gear settings, these seemed the best to me. Shifting 5800, sooner if you're looking for grip.

Haven't messed with aero or bb.
 
Hi,

atm there is no fun for me. Used the transmission from here https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/resources/nissan-r390-gt1-road-car-98.3409/ just set final gear to 3.200 so that it is on the long downhill straight as close as possible to the limiter in sixth gear. BB stock, downforce lowest possible.

No improvement. Just spend three hours only in first sector which is just one corner. Best in these three hours twentyone point eight and I've no idea why. Best opponents are a second away, just in this ***** sector one.

Where are all these Div3 and Div4 guys I can compete with?

frustrated greetings,
D.

@Tidgney 's track guide will help you get up to speed.

Remember that first corner is all about getting on the throttle early for that long straight afterwards.
 
@DeuxMilles - yep, be ready to throttle out early everywhere... early brakes and early acceleration is the key here - you know, that basic trick "slow in, fast out" it is...and hold the line at any cost. Just deny max DF - the lower you can manage it the faster you'll be at the line...
