  • At Least 2 Tires must be in contact with track at all times (See image below).
    • 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.

Race Specifics (Rules for This Specific Event):
  • Blue and White Rumble Strips and Tarmac are Track Surface. No other surfaces are track.
  • White lines denote track boundary except where backed by rumble strips.
  • No contact allowed with any walls or barriers.

Steward's Comments:

We're back at our opening track for GT Sport but in reverse this time and with a car that suits the track well especially with some tweaks in tuning. Fortune favours the brave with this track but watch out for those barriers, the slightest touch will invalidate your lap.

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.

  • 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 22 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 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 just reply to the conversation with your new time. Fetchy always uses the last submitted time as the final one.
  • The deadline is Monday, April 30th 2018 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.

I was dreading this track with 3 chicanes and high curbs, I'll have to raise the ride height and soften the suspension, thanks for making it tune-able.
May not do a lot on this combo, but I'll still submit some sort of time. 👍
 
This should be interesting, I know it is reverse layout but I wonder how much I have improved since week 1.....should be a fun track to learn to drive with a wheel. Can't wait. Nice combo. 👍

I actually expect to be slower than normal for the next couple weeks, but think I will enjoy the racing even more.

@Nerazzurri I am putting our rivalry on hold for a couple weeks, but then I will be gunning to beat you again. :cheers:
 
Will get on this tonight, should be Awesome! :cheers: I just run the M4 through the editor and splatted a few stickers here and there and came up with this in about 15 minutes.. beats 2 hours farting around like last the last one :lol: This will be my drive this week..

It’ll probably take you a couple of weeks to get used to the wheel mate, but then you’ll wonder how you ever managed with a controller. That’s what happened for me anyway!

As for our rivalry, take your time getting used to the wheel I’m enjoying beating you for a change :lol::lol::lol:
 
I love the track, I love the car. I'm gonna rack up some kms on this one.

I've tried to tune a transmission as I was doing in the last couple of weeks in other series, let me know what you guys think (utilising all 7 gears):

Final far right
Max speed far left
Set
1st 2,328
2nd 1,800
3rd 1,489
4th 1,286
5th 1,137
6th 1,025
7th 0,945

Set final to 3,950

Splits in the next post so as not to confuse Fetchy :cheers:

So, splits after initial 20 laps with stock settings except for the tranny above:

35.173

Definitely lots of time still left out there.

Plus I got a livery made a couple of weeks back when I was still racing in sport mode... :odd::eek::confused:
