That was a strange one Mitch. Lesson learned: when in doubt - buy new car :)

Yep, or I can just not be an anal dumbass next time and perform an engine overhaul when I really didn't need to. :dunce: I'm just pretty much the dumbass here that caused my own problem so no one here to blame except myself. Ah well, never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the tool shed. Sometimes I wonder how I even manage to make it from one day to the next, pretty much a clueless moron I am. :banghead:

Well i bet I'll be happy if I get close to you. You're quick man!
Always the one I'm chasing in seasonals. Closest I got was that Scooby on the matterhorn!
 
I have a favor to ask one of the faster guys here. Can someone join me in a room later this evening (U.S. EST. around 6pm or later) and help me out learning the proper lines and such around this track with this car. I was thinking kinda like practice where I'll follow you around and learn that way or you can watch me and tell me where I can improve. If someone is willing to take the time to do this for me, I'd really appreciate it. If not, I understand. Thanks guys.
 
Question. If i knock over a pullard on startlap and dont get near it on the timed lap, is the lap valid or dirty?
 
Technically, if you play the best-lap replay from Gallery after saving it and exiting back to the main menu, and it doesn't show any cones/bollards down, then we have no way of knowing. But I wouldn't take that chance until I tested it a few times, I would just restart anytime I hit one.

Up to you.

You'r right @Gravitron. Thanks for clearing it up. Just going at it again. Had a 0,32 time and 2/10 at the line, so i had to ask. I can se the cone is gone in the replay so it's in the trash :indiff:
 
@GTP_CargoRatt
Alright guys, got my problem figured out and it was a strange one indeed. Here is part of my pm with Jon I had explaining the problem and simple solution just in case anyone else runs into a similar situation.

BRILLIANT

@Mark_S
30 Laps Later
33.920

AMAZING


Oh, that's it guys, don't spare a thought for me. Spark up the machinery tonight only to find I've been left here all alone again. I know @Thematic will be away soon. Doubt he's driven since Sunday. When he returns all my "new found" bottom of the table buddies will have returned to their higher planes.
Oh well, guess I did say "don't wait for me"

:gtpflag:

I'm sorry? :confused: :lol: There was just no way I was going to let myself stay in last place, even if I would have had to "hack" my car to do it. (the "hacking" remark @Gravitron :sly: jk)

Keep at it Micky, I have faith you'll pull yourself out of the cellar. 👍

Mitch, we usually switch to the current time trial combo after our Wed NA online race, if you want to join afterward, which would be about 11:20pm EST. It'll be a public room at Apricot Hill Reverse titled GTP_WRS Nada Neon NA. You're welcome to join earlier and watch the race too if you like, we don't have many showing up tonight, and I already told @otxjto that he could join just to watch. 👍

EDIT: Quali starts at 10pm EST.

Alright, I think I may just do that. 👍 Thanks for the heads up. :cheers:

New splits
T1: 34.650
Slip sliding all over the track at every corner, not the best way round perhaps but great fun.

Something wrong with LB. Last time I posted the above time. Somehow I've jumped forward (and upward) by 3/4 of a second.
:confused:


On second thoughts ................

Repost your correct splits to correct it.

Fetchy saw your post above where you were attempting to quote @Mark_S, but since you didn't have it in quote tags, Fetchy blindly believed you. ;)

Oops, I think it was because I quoted Mark's time in an earlier post and that "confused" Fetchy.
Sorry
:dunce:
 
This TT is mad frustrating for me. Any tips for a DS3 user, or in general? I have the line pretty much down I'm just either too slidy or not going nearly fast enough...
