Time Trial Discussion [Archive]

[praiano63]

This game is getting too complicated for an old bloke like me. Yesterday I couldn't even manage to make some changes to a tune while keeping the original separate. Never had any trouble doing it in GT6

When you have a good base tune you're happy with , name it , copy / paste and rename the copy as test 1 . Then you'll be able to explore some others settings options without losing the base tune. I do this all the time and also manage at the same time , test 1 , test 2 ..... till i can build an evolution of my base tune. When i finish the session , normally i stay with my best option and delete the rest , till i begin again or not another next tuning session.

Tried it but found I had two ghosts running at the same time, the fast one plus one of mine. Probably give it another go and see how it works out.

You can turn either of them off so you just have one in view by choosing which one from the 'ghost options' at the top. 👍

As long as your ghost is behind you, you're doing OK....
Like @nowcontrol pointed out, you can switch yours off if you want. I found that easier to work with.

Any idea what the new time trials would be?

 

[dimassa19]

New records:

Monza (New Leader) IRLANDO46..........1:26.863 (8.300 Players)

Red Bull Ring - TENTFS_xife10..............1:04.916 (15.470 Players)

Last day for this round!

 

[Dalone]

Just watched the ghost of the #1 on 1:26.863.

TOTAL cheat. Goes through the orange barrier at the first S bend then cuts across the sand at the next S bend.

Wonder if any more are cheating?

Thanks Dalone for warning.

I've had a look and there are a few examples of people doing this. It looks like if you pick up a 0.5s penalty in the first chicane then you can go full power through the gravel at Ascari, serve the penalty and set a blistering lap time.

So that's thoroughly disappointing

 

[Dalone]

Not sure when this race cuts out, should be some time tomorrow here in OZ.

Improved a tiny bit to 1:28.722 for #70 and am now (for a while anyway) #2 in OZ.

Just saw it lasts for another 23 plus hours so might get another chance tomorrow.

Edit: Never mind, wrong alert... Still hoping them to ivestigate TT's.
But now, once again there's a clean lap in 1st positions!

Stopping at a 1:04.936 on the Red Bull Ring time trial for 3rd worldwide. Lost all patience for this as I just can't seem to consistently nail turn 2 and the last turn. My optimal gives .780 but there's no way I'm getting that kind of time. I'm not good enough

 

[Dalone]

Time Trial is finished but no new ones up yet.

"There are no Time Trial events currently taking place".

Retained my #2 place in OZ, pos' 76 overall.

 

[Gtsport28]

no time trial available well polyphony! Worse and worse wow !!!!!

Perhaps someone at PD forgot to press that button for the TT Dalone.

 

[Mr P]

You'd think they would just start the new TT's exactly when the others end? Just like the weekly events... C'mon PD pull yer fingers out

The anticipation is torture at this early hour 👍

 

[MOPARbarrett5]

Hopefully since the new events are delayed that doesn't mean we end up with something like stock VW buses at Route X and Tomahawk Xs at Willow Springs Horse Thief Mile.

 

[LogSwapper]

Gr2 at Brands Indy circuit..

 

[Pigems]

Are the new ones up yet?

I kinda wish it was the other way around, I’d rather drive the stock GTO and Tune the Gr2 cars.

 

[Dalone]

Yes! It's here, Darwin NT, the new Time Trial.

 

[koshmare]

Here's world record replays if you missed it

 

[sdi_03]

So, for GR2 40sec lap times??

 

[seadog777]

Oh so THAT'S how you do it!! Too late now but thanks!

I have no idea how they got the Zonda around that first bend flat out..... every time I tried it I ended up in the gravel!

 

[watto79]

Seems a bit odd to use the Indy circuit for Gr.2 cars. The full Brands Hatch layout would have been fun with Gr.2 but the Indy circuit feels very short.

With the DS4 I could not either as my controller input was too "sudden" which was a no go in this car. With the wheel it was easy though as it allows for progressive smooth inputs.

Early, but smooth turn in and staying close to the curb would have done it for you.

I have no trouble in Gr.1 cars (er, except for the Dodge) and take it flat out fine..... but that Zonda just would not behave! If it ever comes back I will take your advice, thanks!

 

[Veinz]

Weird combo, you would think that it would be the gto around brands indy and vice versa.

Enjoying the tuning though. I pretty much have that “floaty” feel dialed out, I just need to practice.
