Steward's Comments:

We love this car, and Senna's involvement in it's development only makes it's legacy bigger and better. Have fun!

Saving Replays, Viewing sector times and Submissions:
  • You need to make sure you use the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay' (See pic below).
  • Before saving your replay ensure that you continue running after completing your fast lap until at least the end of first sector. This will ensure you have a complete replay.
  • To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Library' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replays' option.
  • While viewing your Replay, enter the live timing screen to view your sector splits. You will need to do this after your car has passed the sector markers to see it listed.
  • Simply post the splits that are shown in the live timing screen, and our Fetchbot will parse them and add them together for your total sector time.
  • When saving your fastest lap replay please ensure that you watch the replay to the end and that it displays your full lap time. Any replays submitted that do not show the posted lap time will result in a DQ.
  • Remember - When you submit your time you're also declaring that your run is 100% clean. We request replays for the purpose of verifying to all those concerned that the drivers claim is correct, which in turn safeguards the integrity of the driver, and just as importantly, the WRS. The golden rule is to check your replay before submission. If you’re still unsure, check it again, ask for a second opinion and if you’re still undecided, run the lap again.

Thread rules:

The following information cannot be discussed in this thread (they can, however, be discussed on Skype or via other private IM service.):
  • Total Lap Time.
  • Any information which can be used to infer your total lap time.
  • If you choose to Share your Best-Lap Replay via GT Sport before the deadline,your full lap time will be considered to be shared publicly which contravenes our rules. Even if you've only shared with Friends.

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 171 Submission ) to (WRSFetchbot):
  • Please submit your FULL LAP TIME in the following format on a single line:
    X:XX.XXX
    (Example-) 1:10.100
  • You will get an automated response within 15min, letting you know whether your submission was accepted, or if you had an error.
  • For those of you who were used to submitting replays on GT6, you no longer have the ability to export the files.
  • 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 171 Get Entry" and any text in the body.
  • Users can delete their submitted time by sending a message with the Subject: "GTP_WRS Week 171 Remove Entry" and any text in the body.
  • If you want to submit multiple times in the week just reply to the conversation with your new time. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • The deadline is Monday, March 8th 2021 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:
  • Division winners and overperformers will be required to submit a replay via the GT Sport Share function for verification AFTER Unofficial Results have been posted.
  • Participants will be expected to check each others' replays for cleanliness, for replays marked in the Results thread as (Replay Verify Required).
  • Video/Youtube/Twitch replays are not accepted as a form of verification.

Good luck,
:gtplanet: & The WRS team.
 
Literally the perfect combo :bowdown::gtpflag:
Gotta admit I was pretty bummed GT7 is delayed, but this combo shows we can have another year of WRS fun to look forward to :cheers:
I really hope we see a lot of people running this week, a combo this epic hopefully will attract many :dopey:
Maybe it even could be posted on the GTPlanet Home page :)
Gonna be fun Y'all! :D
 
It has not been a good week. Time to vent.

Suzuka looks like a great track, wish I had been able to ride there. Whish I could drive it better - in game.

Anything Honda sucks. Period.

Senna was a pretty good F1 driver. I still remember watching him take out Prost at Suzuka in 1989. I was never a Senna fan, never will be.

F1 GOAT, without a doubt - Fangio. Javier, as an impartial judge, would probably agree.

There, I feel better. Need to help my daughter with physics - wave mechanics. Yes, physics is phun.

Didn't take you for an Hondaphobic, dont't let the kids on a Civic and a fart can ruin a whole brand for you :D
Those Senna-Prost years were the best F1 I ever saw. Sundays morning with my dad and a 21 inch tv.
Who's Fangio? :lol::lol::lol:

The fart can kids are fading in my rear view mirror.
Owning Yamahas means you can’t like Honda’s. Plus the last 2 Honda’s I owned put me in the hospital the 2nd time I rode them. No more Honda for me. Wife had an Acura Integra GSR, not a good drivers car.
 
@tzracer - S2000, NSX, EK and EJ Civic, Integra Type R? Imo Honda make some beautiful, and truly iconic cars.

And Senna just very good? Come on :lol::lol::lol:

As for the whole GOAT thing, it can only ever be subjective, definitive statements are impossible unless you go purely on stats, in which case the GOAT acronym should be replaced with Most Successful Of All Time.

I couldn't not reply :lol:

The problem is that the internet does not have a sarcasm detector. Pretty sure this was a partially sarcastic rant, while also including some very controversial comments about an incredibly polarizing character.

I think Senna is remembered as being better than he actually was (or anyone realistically could be, for that matter), because he was tragically killed in his prime. That causes people to forget most of the bad things, while providing the good things more reverence than they earned.

On the Honda thing - Brian raced on Yamaha motorcycles for years, so he has an irrational hate of Honda. Enough said. :)

Lucky I practice catch and release :D

Couple things for perspective.
-I am in my late 50s - I did not grow up driving Japanese cars. The only Japanese cars I have owned for my use was 2 Toyota pickups.
-I am a motorcycle person, not a car person. Only reason I own cars, actually mostly trucks, was for snow and towing to the race track.
-I do not like front wheel drive at all. Especially in the snow.
-Honda is the evil empire, at least according to us TZ (Yamaha) racers. :)

GOAT is easy - just use some math, can math ever be wrong?

Senna
Senna can be a touchy subject - his death has pushed him to a sort of mythical status.
From my point of view as a racer, what he did in 1989 was inexcusable. You never purposely take out a competitor. Mistakes happen, that was no mistake. The way he acted after was just as bad. I don't care how well you drive, that sort of move erases all of that. Never really liked him because of his attitude.

-I am a motorcycle person, not a car person - all cars suck (compared to the vastly superior motorcycle), some just less so than others. Only reason I own cars, actually mostly trucks was for snow and towing to the race track.
-I do not like front wheel drive at all. Especially in the snow.
-Honda is the evil empire, at least according to us TZ (Yamaha) racers. From my experience, their vehicles are overly complicated and a pain to work on.

Never a Senna fan myself either. I was actually rooting for Prost all those years. Being brazilian surely didn't help in my book.
As an argentinian I try to stay away from the F1 goat argument, for obvious reasons. 5 championships on 4 different teams, more than 50% win average, all that being almost 20 years older than the competition and being respected and loved by anyone who ever shared track with him. "El Chueco" will always be the best ever for us...

Aww, I was just having fun.

I need the snow to melt, rain to clean the roads so I can go for a ride. Been a long winter.

Probably would help if I could drive this car and track better. I am awful. The Honda gods have cursed me.

Very true, I just can't fathom not liking even one Honda, but cars and taste are completely individual of course so, variety is the spice of life etc. The Senna thing i totally get, I was a little shocked at the very good comment, don't think I've every heard it downplayed quite as much, but still, its all subject to personal opinion.

Ok, the catch and release thing really made me smile :lol::lol: likewise while surprised at the opinions you do have, I have no problem with them :cheers:

As for Suzuka it always struck me as a scary track for bikes, T1, the degners, 130R..... certainly looks spectacular watching the Suzuka endurance race each year.
