Steward's Comments:
This car shows up on my GT6 Stats with Most Wins -- at 18. Against dumb AI, most likely. :-/

The pics have us mostly in the BMW Kokusai livery, but please use the Base Model, body and wheels are paintable. 👍

Tuning Allowed.

The title is me being cheeky toward McLaren's Formula 1 troubles, and yeah we used a Honda here last time. :P

Viewing your T1 & T2 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 & T2 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual split times, 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 2 splits: T1 and T2 times
  • Any settings discussion

Splits Sharing
  • WRS Participants have traditionally shared splits as a way to reveal their pace without providing the full lap time until the event deadline. Posting of splits is not mandatory, but is considered fair sportsmanship.
  • WRS Admins reserve the right to request posting of splits from members who show a pattern of avoidance or deception in this area.
  • If you fail to comply with a direct request from an admin to post splits for a current or future event, we reserve the right to disqualify your lap from the results.

full



Submission:
All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 166 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:

  • The deadline is Monday, March 27th 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, :gtplanet:

Looking at when the sun rises, about 5:35am. :crazy:

But it's beautiful. :bowdown:

It's great but until you have watched the sun set and rise over the 'Ring you have not seen the very best GT6 has to offer. This is usually reserved for those of us who endurance race there, but we might get there with a weekly eventually.Hint Hint..

But you can do it yourself...go practice. at the ring and set time change at 60 and start time at 15:00 ( 3:00 for you civillians..lol). Then go practice. Have fun...and oh yes it you want to see the sunrise you have to drive in the dark.

I'm ashamed at how long it took me to realize Alonso is in every photo... :dunce: :lol:
Click to expand...

I only just found out... BTW, who's Alonso? :sly:



McLaren fan (so I really am joking about not knowing who he is) and I'm not happy at all about the state of their car. :grumpy: At least if it's halfway fast during the season Fernando'll cause a few red faces. :mischievous:
 
Track nostalgia (my first endurance race ever in GT2)
Car nostalgia (Need for Speed 4, my first racing game ever)
No nostalgia for "Tuning: Allowed" though, I'm bad at it :D

Anyway, looking forward to it.

BTW, does time of the day has any impact on grip levels? Because temperature and stuff

Hard to imagine this is already 3 years ago: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...verstone-mixed-class-enduro-feb-22-23.301788/

The first WRS-Online special event in GT6 we ran this car at Silverstone GP, here are the tunes that were available including mine:

Tunes: Praiano, HaB-Racing, PASM, Oink, Gooners, Jammy

These tunes are for Racing Hard, so some tweaks might be needed. My understanding of tuning has improved a bit since then.

Have to have a crack at it this week... :dopey:

This was also well before the 1.09 update, which is the one that installed the horrible default camber and toe settings. Although it's debatable whether or not there were physics changes made, the direction of tuning after that update seems to have changed.

All of that to say, these tunes are likely to be better used as guidelines than plug and play.
 
Hope we all treat this ride better than Mr.Bean did :banghead:
Quick tune, it's box populi I suck at tuning so disregard this one as soon as someone who knows what he is doing posts another :D
Rh 70/70
Min Springs
1/1

7/7
Zero Camber and Toe

Same as what I used Javier with trans flip but tried max/Min DF.
Fast as but take a better driver than me to control it;)
 
Last update tonight I promise :D

20.350
44.917

This combo is Superb! the way the car can be catapulted into the bends whilst sliding the rear tyres is excellent.. one of my fave combo's in GT6 to date 👍 It's just a shame my track time at Apricot reverse is with this car only! how has this track been missed out in all this time? haha

I really like this and will defo go back before the deadline, Top marks to the guy who pulled this one out of the hat :bowdown:

👍
