My oh my, where to start w/ this. I decided to stick w/ my original car to test a theory out...that even tho it doesnt get the greatest first lap times..if you can get a smokin 2nd lap w/ it, it'd make up for it. I did just that too...get a mediocre first lap (compared to some ive got) and an AWESOME 2nd lap, times in that lap were 23.2/37.8/1'00.0 and it netted me a pretty good time....EXCEPT....upon further review of my replay...i think i may have had a wall scratch...its so hard to tell, but a minor drop in speed is the tell tale sign i think im gonna be sick. i dont think i'll be able to pull that kinda lap again. tho i can do about .300 or .400'ths better in my first lap than what i have saved...so if i can pull off a good 1st lap and decent second lap i may be able to regain my time...im just takin a little break right now. i need to have my time by the end of the night...talk about cuttin it close..haha. I know this car wont be the FASTEST...especially in my hands. but i do think that its got enough guff to keep up w/ the pack a lot better than some may think
::EDIT:: Time submitted. Not very happy w/ it but i guess thats as good as its gonna get tonight. I was able to come within .100 of my best save w/ the wall scratch. Lap 1 times were 31.9/46.7/1'09.0 and lap 2 was 23.3/38.0/1'00.3. First lap was .100 better than my previous save, and my second lap was only .200 worse than my best, so that evened it out to only a .100 difference b/w my dirty and clean one. tho if i take my best laps ive done, i should have a time thats almost a second faster than what i have now. but i think those laps were freaks of nature. I wish i didnt have to work at 9:30 tomorrow morning or else i'd stay up the rest of the night working on this. MAYBE if im lucky i can get up a little earlier tomorrow and get an hours worth in before i have to get ready for work, but that probably aint gonna happen...the only thing i value more than GT3 is sleeping. haha. If i can get a top 10 finish out of this i'll be happy...its gonna be close tho...
I just emailed my time to you. I hope it gets there faster than my lap time or you might not get it until next week. Hopefully next week will treat me better.
Had a few runs this morning, but of course i couldnt capitalize on anything. This sleep deprived body just didnt have the proper hand-eye coordination, even after a healthy injection of coffee looks like my times gonna have to stand. ::crossing fingers::
Just had to give it one more try as Monster Thunderstorms & 3 Hours w/NO Power yesterday left me feeling there was more time to find. Found it too!!! (Just NOT on the same Lap!!!)
Lap 1 / T2: 1'06.7xx
Lap 2 / T2: 1'00.3xx
Just WISH I could get 'em together! "Good Luck All"...UB57
Originally posted by Tomski I had a slow first lap: 29.332 44.105 1'06.445 but I am happy with the second lap.
I see from Mr P's third split time I need some work here on the part between sector 2 and 3.
The track looks so easy, but in fact it's pretty hard!
