Steward's Comments:

Been a long time, hello Madrid. The car is mental...prepare to crash a few times. :)


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 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.

Submission:
All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 64 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, April 13th 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:

I seem to remember that this car was the quickest round this track in a French 400PP Seasonal TT.

Can't recall whether it was GT5 or 6 though, plus being seasonal, it was tuning allowed.

Will give this a run and see how well it handles with just the BB adjustment.
 
This is a really fun combo and should make for great racing. Car handles pretty well, and it is pretty easy to correct when it wants to slide. First fifteen laps using stock BB. Waiting for the D1 splits to show up to see how much I have to figure out.

It was Peugeots only, and it was London.👍

One of the few seasonal events that has ever been won by a DS3 user, so this combo should suit everyone on a controller rather well.:)
 
Crazy fun.

39.768
1'14.968

Do we need to watch out for track boundaries or is it pretty much wall to wall?

Ahh, OK, thanks for looking but that's not the one I'm thinking of because I was in hospital that time last year waiting for a bypass.

Will try and fish a link out - unless I was dreaming it!! lol :lol:

EDIT: Found it!! My Bad, it was 450PP

Due to Easter Monday i only could run a few laps.This is a great fun combo :). Looking forward to the next try. There is probably still some time to find, especially in the sector before T2. BB 3/5.

silly meeeeeeeee :banghead: ran first lap and wondered why I have 10s better splits than all others :eek: then i looked better in the OP and saw that it is the reverse version :boggled: im getting more blind and as i can see even slower and slower (depends on my last results)

Correcting myself, let's give it a try
