I'm wondering, is this fast?

Some time ago, I was competing in a challenge in which I was racing a Skyline GT-R R34 V-Spec II, on Laguna Seca.

The interest of the challenge faded away.
(Not by the competitors, but by the guy who posted the challenge..)
And I never got to know if my laptime was any good.

So now i ask anyone with interest:
Is this a good laptime? because i haven't been able to beat it since.
And it has kinda been bugging me..

Da car:
Skyline GT-R R34 V-Spec II (Fully modded)

Da Track:
Laguna Seca

Da laptime:
1'15.754


Note:
I don't want to know your laptimes for F1's, Escudo's or anything else - Just the R34II, ok? :)

I'll post my sector times too if you want them.

Now let me see you beat it.
(I'm about to give up.) :mad:
 
So, nobody is going to have a shot at it ?

Who will be the "R34II king of Laguna" ??

C'mon guys, you can beat this :)
 
Yeah thats a respectable time.
Its not the fastest but not bad at all.
Ive got similar times with my Skylines as well.
Keep working on those times. :)

Nice one :)

I just wonder if the GT2+GT3 lap times are worth comparing. Even though it is the same tracks and cars, they are not 100% identical.

(Maybe someone can shed some light on this..)

But a very nice laptime anyway. :thumbsup:
 
I'll give a try later today when i get some spare time :) GT3 of course ;)
 
Just got a 1:20 time with the Skyline with about 600 hp. That was in one of the races with only three laps and know I can do better with a better car and more laps.
Nice time though.

Ok all i could manage was a 1'17.314

I don't have the time to try out loads of set ups so i left it there after about 20 laps .
 
i got it in 4 laps. i had springs, stabilisers, dampers as hard as they can be. and the gear ratio on 12. everything else is standard.
 
I recently ran this car/track combination for best time. I was running consistently in the low 1:18.xxx with a few times in the high 1:17.xxx.

My car is fully loaded (1072 hp) and I'm usually pretty fast at the Seca. The only variable I can see making that kind of difference is the rubber. What tires were you using when you were getting faster times?

I'd say so, I have an lap time just under that... Keep at it as your driving skills improve so will your times drop. I hate that track..grrrr

Beat it in 3 laps 1'14.076.

Also I made plenty of mistake in that run. I'm sure it's possible to get around 1'12.***.

Don't worry, I made plenty of lap with different car in that track. You know when you try to beat some crazy record you know how to run it that track.

ex: 1'05.*** in a Viper Oreca is quite crazy to beat! I've only able to do around 1'07.***

well i'll have to try that viper thing. i find it hard to believe u made plenty of mistakes in that run for the skyline though. i dont consider myself a bad driver and 1:14:076 sounds like a mental run. my 1:14:536 today was pretty flawless i can't imagine where u could get an extra second or two from. but if u can, u are truly a gt god :D heh imho anyway

think tires, if you aint got a good grip of things all is lost, dont take me literal on that...

How bout 41.009 seconds on the Test track, with an lil bit tweaked Viper GTS, at 1496 mph...
Gonna post the replay here.
 
yeah im sure a lot is to do with grip. but i prefer drifting when going for faster times so ummm even though i had super softs, downforce on the back was reduced and brake balance was heavier towards the front so i 4-wheel-drifted every corner.

had i been quicker with 100% grip driving i dont know.

paul
 
just in case u haven't seen the other thread "seca everyones favourite track" i clocked 1:13:832 with my R34.

im currently working on settings to make it go faster but people keep comandeering the tv so i have little time to play! :( heh

paul
 
rarg! :( 1:12.034

i can't do that. i spent ages fiddling with my settings and running up and down seca. i managed a 1:13:252 but at one point i ran -0.6xx off my time so it _could_ have been 1:12:6xx but i didn't keep the rest up so it doesnt count.

can you post your sector times please master blaster?

p.s. you aren't using the pitlane for the last corner by any chance are you?
