T1:19.254
T2:1'02.071
 
My BMW M3 RS Splits:

T1:19'077
T2:1'01.817

I never was a fan of this track, so i'm just trying to go as fast as the car will let me...I don't think i can get anymore out of the car at this point, but i'll keep tryin' 'till the deadline!
 
T1 '19.621
T2 1'03.771

Yeah I'm slow! and I hate this track!

I'm losing a lot on the t2...and just pushing this car really hard, and it doesn't like it!

Right... This doesn't seems to sound good with my AMG. It's understeery and sometimes I can't even control it. It just gone wide through turn 8 and boy I was real mad :banghead: Honestly I think, BMW would dominate this race.

Will posts the time soon!! But you know it's going to be slow :p
 
hm.. wednesday already? I think it's time to start turning up the boost.. :trouble:
 
Did a couple of laps. Obviously there's alot of room for improvement. The RS tune is really good Grey! I love it, and the track also, it feels good to be driving fast through those streets. I have a Q though; how can I view the split times? I don't want to pause the game after every split, bad for the flow haha.

You can view it through the replay... Set it to normal replay and you can see the split times like how you see when you drive ;)
 
Oh my.
I was invited to drive for RVV and picked their M5.
As probably the "old man" of the competition here, I've gone with a suitable colour, but I've spawned a monster. :scared:


I give you..., "The Beige Rage!":

👍👍👍
 
That second picture :scared:

Aww.. My split times :-

T1 = 0'19.576
T2 = 1'03.488

:indiff:
 
Got to run a few laps last night with the Cobra R:

T1 - 18.994
T1 - 1:03.249

I tried a few laps with the Shelby. It's probably faster around this track but too much of a handful for this track.

:lol:
You aren't that old Smallhorses.
That is the late 40ish and above color.:sly:
 
I gave Rene's M3 a run, and noticed it to be so good ( and more manageable on Seattle than my Z ) that it shall be The Ride for the rest of this week, and the official run will be made with it as well.


oh yeah, the times..


T1: 0'18.469
T2: 1'01.494

there's still room for improvement though..

Ah, I see that trend... Your split times are just a bit off of mines... Argh, if we just would be racing on Nürburgring... :indiff:
 
Holy crispy crap, Smallhorses, glad for your appearance! 👍👍 And those splits... :scared:



EDIT: Added a new rule with the time submission format. Please put what team you're under along with the time submission.


Cheers

I'm going to give this my own try tonight. I will post my times tomorrow. 👍
 
I improved my lap by about three quarters of a second, even though the splits aren't much better. Braking early for the downhill left turn, and thereby sacrificing time at T2, pays dividends. ;)

18.460 - 1'00.703
 
Oh. Crap. :scared: Everyone having fun?


Cheers,
Jetboy
 
Hmmm. Just blown an 18.558 / 1'00.650 lap by having the tiniest wall contact at the bottom of the hill. :ouch:
Redeemed it by scraping almost a full 0.5s (if it's possible to have a full half?!!! :boggled:) off my best laptime, albeit with slightly slower splits than my previous clean ones.
Still working, getting to know the car now, and having a lot of fun. :D

*edit* Fastlap now has splits of:
T1 18.917
T2 1'00.927

but, critically, is over 7/10th faster than before.
I know Austin343 is gonna have me at the line though. He always does! :nervous:

Time submitted, not very good tho - been a really busy week :nervous:
 
I managed to knock 1.3 seconds off my lap time last night despite slower splits than the ones I posted above.

EDIT: Final time submitted. New split times.

T1: 18.661
T2: 1:02.437

I found the secret is to drive sober. :dopey:

Not a winning time but the best I could do.

I yet have to send a picture of my replay screen. It's 6:55 PM here now and I forgot to save my fastest laptime, so I have to hurry. :scared:

EDIT: Lost 0.1 seconds in the first sector and 0.4 in the 2nd sector. Third sector was faster than my previous best being 0.6 seconds faster :eek:

Pictures are being sent to Corey. :p

Was awake at 4:45am this morning for the English footy, and have been lapping while watching back-to-back games.

Improved overall laptime by another 2/10ths with the following splits, but it's kind of annoying that I'm not able to put together all of my quickest sectors in the same lap. :irked:

T1 18.425
T2 1'00.598

Going to submit soon, but looking forward to taking the "Beige Rage!" to the next venue already! 👍
 
Don't worry, Nick, you'll succeed putting them together. 👍
 
Combining the track I hate with a passion, and even more now, to corners that brought up every bad quality of the car and not a single good one... this didn't go too well. Simply lacking torque on what is very much of an acceleration course (76% of my lap at full throttle) killed the chances to fight for the top positions as the few corners can only do so much. Oh well, it can only get better from now on.

Got my final time in with a T1 of 19.405 and a T2 of 1:02.484.
 
my earlier ghost lap stays as it is, a ghost lap.

T1: 0'18.469
T2: 1'01.494

Finish: vanishes mysteriously...
