Steward's Comments:
Back to Monaco, a great idea from @hasslemoff to run this iconic car in its home environs. Thanks to @GTP_Dutchy for the awesome pics.

This is the first time in GT6 that we're allowing 2 tires to be inside the chicane.



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 T1 Splits, simply post the lap to date times that are shown in the middle of the screen. Do not try to calculate the actual T2 split time, 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 & T2 times
  • Any settings discussion
full

Submission:

All submissions must be sent by PM (Subject title: GTP_WRS Week 91 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, October 19th 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, :gtpflag:

With the Rocket and the Caterham, we had 4-wheels-in-bounds rules for the chicane. With this one we're treating it like a normal track boundary, and you can have 2 on the rumbles and 2 on the tarmac inside.
 
I'm not sure where to put this, but here is where I feel is most likely to be read by the mods.

On week 85, during one of the sprint races, I spun out a racer and did not slow down to let him get the position back. I was penalized for it, and probably cost me a podium position in the final results.

When I saw the results that morning, I will admit, I was not in the best of moods as I was only awake for about an hour. I posted something on that thread, and then Lucas banned me from posting in that thread again. As a result, he also removed me from the WRS club room to prevent me from racing. What I said in another thread, saying I was taking a break was a lie. I checked the registry every day just to be sure I wasn't removed entirely.

Regardless, despite all of that and others I purposely removed from this post, I do want to apologize for my actions. I even cut ties from my racing league because I KNEW my attitude would affect my racing. So, just to reiterate, I apologize for my actions, and while I can't guarantee it won't happen again, I'll do what I can to curb it.

That's all I have to say. I hope you can forgive me.

First stint:

32.014
1'24.914

I knew this will be hard, but actually after some 40 km of color-trading with all possible and impossible walls i managed first clean lap. Not sure if i'll continue in this combo :scared:
 
Another go:

31.837
84.504

Still loosing too much time somewhere :irked:
no wonder that Monaco is one of my least fav tracks in game
 
Another of my most favorite cars enters the table (-? of course it's stock)! Okay so I don't have loads of experience with car or track, but handicap doesn't exactly equal enjoyment in my opinion.
 
Probably a good idea to get this out of the way as early as now. Clean or dirty? I might have pushed it too much at the chicane. :nervous:

getting used to the car and track,

32.031
1'25.248

Probably have another go at it tonight.
 
32.867
1:25.967

It really annoys me that they've put an invisible wall on the inside of Grand Hotel Hairpin, i keep instinctively turning in and then bam!
