jadaman-------1'24.724

Congrats to all,the track\car combo was a difficult one.

Sjaak.
 
Hope its ok if I run this, I missed sign ups / first race. I have not done any GT olr in years and this looks like a nice simple series to get back into.

Just a quick question, what replay software are you guys using? I have just bought an action replay max evo and am hoping you guys are using something similar so I can see the replays and you mine.

Thanks,
Nathan.
 
Ok some sector times. These will be easilly beat, I left a lot out there. This car is difficult on the edge under braking and I dont know enough about setup to dial it out. Oh well.

T1: 0'16.290
T2: 0'48.542
 
welcome Nathan,
excellent choice to start OLR again. :D

Most of us have X-ports and if some one has a max-drive it has to be pal.
This evening my first try on the track.

Welcome, Nathan. :)

I use the X-port and so does Banjo and Sjaak. There's supposed to be a X-port/Max Drive converter out there somewhere, so it shouldn't cause any problems. Unfortunately my times haven't called for a replay in a long time, and I doubt this week will be much different. ;)

I have just raced a few laps and I had problems under braking. Any help on a killer-set-up would be much appreciated. :)

Edit: Damn. To slow. Again. :sigh:
 
Oke,after some wallbanging laps(still learning the track :) ) I've a clean one.

T1-16.244

This is allowed now in olr? Times have changed I guess. Its tabu where I am from.

Anyway those settings surprised me. Its about exactly opposite what I am running but right now I am the slowest part so I'll stick with my setup till I can progress no further.

Latest:

T1: 0'15.848
T2: 0'47.804
 
Yup
Here are my TS after the first setups, which has decrease the suspension height at 105 and set up the springs to about 7kg, the car become to be drivable it rests to be fast now.
16'430
48'805
 
Just for the record in the interest check thread you have the Mazda 6 down as not having a wing. In this thread you state the wing is allowed. I trashed my best run because I was browsing that thread and saw no wing and thought oh **** why did I think I could run a wing I have to redo my runs.

Its ok because it was only 1/10th faster than the time I have already posted on here (1st time posted was with a wing, second and fastest time was not posted but with the wing, third time was without the wing and posted above) and I can beat that. But just letting you know anyway.

Your are right about no wing in the interest check.
It was planned without because I find wings ugly.
I made a mistake with posting the new thread.
All in post 1 is what counts now.

And about the TCS.
Here in Holland,very few is tabu so is the TCS. ;)
 
Thanks for settings Sjaak. 👍 Much better than the stock ones. And now the combo is actually great fun again. :D

Just have altered the following slightly:

Tranny trick. Final at 4500
Brakes 12/3
Stabilizer 4/2
TCS 1

15.799
47.861
 
Hoy hoy Guys

Look at my TS 15/580 and 46'896 :dopey:
I have always use the wing for the last runs, sure that is not the beautifull part on this Mazda :yuck:
I'll try without it maybe i would be able to gain few Km/h(now 210)
My setting are a little bit different. I use no TCS and it's 8/10 for my brakes.
Just wanna show you these screens

A mazda never complain

seeya
 
Great time Skalp, :eek: Haha
You are in a higher leaque now.

But I have also an improvement.

T1-16.074
T2-47.712

The 46 is far,far away.
 
Paris Opera is really technical and I would have very difficult to ameliorate my last best time. (My Mazda has already over than 300 km!)
 
i yest did 10 laps, so far 48.006 stil working on the settings....
good luck to you all.. 👍 👍
 
Ha die Jan,back on track.
how do you like Paris?

I have raced 2 hours today and got a time that broke a psychological barrier.
My splits are nearly the same but the in last sector I gained a lot of time.

Old:16.079
----47.712

New:16.158------best 15.8
-----47.521------best 47.4

0,2 faster at T2 but 0,78 faster at the finish. :)

Settings:

7.8-5.0
95-115
8-5
8-5
3.0-1.8
0-0
5-3
brakes 8-10
LSD 5-5-5
TCS 1
 
he sjaakie

lsd i always set them on 555

your other settings i try tomorrow exept the tcs that has to be 0 for me 👍
 
Time submitted.

Never found the time to come back to this one again.

Good luck to the rest of you. 👍
 
submitted the time. :odd: (yes,to myself)

Today I'll post the last race.
 
Man settings make a huge difference in GT4 to your speed. In GT1-2 I could compete well with stock settings, not so anymore. I would be lost with out some of the settings posted here. But with the setup help I have slashed seconds off my best time.

I am wondering what Skalp and Jadaman have to offer, but I am sure I wont be far behind them.

Anyway its a bit unfair this sunday your local time business. In australia we are far ahead of the us time zone wise so I get a day less to do my runs. Does not matter though, I am happy with my time thus far.
 
Hi guys,

Maybe my settings aren't definitively so bad as I wonder. So I will share them but each racers has his personnal style to drive.
brakes:6/9
springs:7.9/6.2
height:103/106
bound:8/7
reb ound:4/4
camber:1.0/1.2
toe:1/-2
stab:4/3
No Asm and no TCs
downforce: 30/26
lsd: 25/50/5
final gear: 4400
good race to all, it not finished yet but I have alreadyhad good time in these little streets of Paris!
ps: I have bought a Max drive for replays and so one...! :-)

Congrats. 👍 You won't regret it. :)

Downloading replays from faster guys can really improve your driving. You can download saves with all cars available. Plus that posting your replays every time you do good, gives a lot of credibility real fast. :D

Don't know if you have seen it already, but this thread might be some help in the start:

Yes I have read this thread several times but I dont understand everything for the moment :D
I will look how does it work this afternoon.
 
My time is in. I could have gone quicker I have been faster in all sectors but I am too tired and there is too much good motorsport on TV :)

Mt time is good enough for a first race back in think. I am not going to win but I will not come last (i hope ;) ).
 
I think I have all the time submissions except the official one from Skalp.
If I have that one too perhaps I can post the results this evening and move on with race three.

Would that be an idea?

Lol. My typing really does suffer when I am tired.

Anyway results tonight sounds like a plan to me. Come on Skalp ;)
 
Yes Sjaak, the time that you have is my final time.
So you can post the results !
 
Results in post one.

Thanks for racing,
See you guys on the Mountain.
 
Wow finally second, congrats Nasanu!! and thx to all for this good race.
I would probably able to send you the replay by mail if you are intested in. and you can email or PM yours if you have!
 
I can get my replay online if anyone wants it.. Just got to figure out how the action replay works, sure its not hard.

While on the subject do PAL replays work on NTSC consoles?
