It'll be be beaten quite easily once the proper drivers have a go, I'm just an old fart with my hands of ham and fingers of butter

:D The same with me trying to man handle those small DS4 stick buttons quickly :lol: (great for photomodes) They should make special DS4's as you get older the size of an F1 racing wheel ;) I think I am too used to a large wheel set up now for racing games.👍
 
I had a little go at this last night, what a brilliant time trial, think fastbud was top when i left it last night.
 
Great times all:tup: I am finding this tricky (hairpin section) I lose a second getting the power down again. :mad:

I have set this challenge as 'Open to all' and put it out on twitter to TD4W-Dirtysouthboy to send out so feel free to forward on to anyone :cheers:

Very good time thanks for joining in fastbud, I have a feeling you will have to fight to keep the top spot with these guys 👍:gtpflag:
 
Sorry about the late go at it, but 2nd semester at university has me reading a little over 550 pages within a single week, which has cut into my fun time. Ain't university grand? :lol:

That last turn is absolutely killing me. I can't seem to work out a proper line through it, and the uneven road throws me off balance. There's also a fair amount of invisible barriers on this track, which proved rather frustrating for me.
That said, I am fairly happy with my time (47:841), even if I would have loved to place on the podium for at least a little while.

Thanks for the full lap TT.
 
Great time @Jawehawk 👍 Well done all great times again and steady hands :sly:, I am struggling with this, I think I prefer Short Sprints as I make too many little mistakes over the whole lap, I see I need some practice and not to stop half way for a photo.:cheers:

Best of luck with that, not much needed to go below that. Gave it a go soon as you asked, managed to get my number two driver spot again but looking at how competitive is, I doubt I will remain there unless I improve. First two sectors, I think best I can hope to go ahead of @CSL_GoTp is by about two tenths but that hairpin at start of last sector I find really hard to be consistent with and generally lose a lot of time so unless I get lucky with it, I don't think I will beat his time.

Enjoying running a new track. First time I've put some laps around it. Down to a 47.152 and hoping to push some more out of it.

Tell it to us straight. Are you even human?
 
I had a go at this and got 48.149, putting me eighth out of 16. You all are really fast and this is definitely a fun challenge :gtpflag:.
 
Bleh, if this was real I would have been dead an hour ago. Still haven't gotten a decent time.
 
Aand it's over. Was a fun combination, the skittish 488 and the mid-corner crests! Even now I have no idea how CSL_GoTp was so fast in the middle sector - sometimes I could get ahead by a tenth or so after sector 1, and be on the right side of the road, but then he'd just scoot past in the next corner... :bowdown:. I didn't get to see Fast-Bud's ghost, that would've been interesting to study. I was getting close but then he found another tenth somewhere! Nice driving you two; I'm just a Terran :)
 
Well Done everyone for taking part again:sly: , it is appreciated greatly and it is looking like there will be enough people to carry on and run another challenge?


This was a tough lap with those two hairpins/tight turns to get all that power down, I tried 1st gear, 2nd gear, handbrake turns but always lost a full second getting going again so our resident DC Champ Mr @CSL_GoTp :gtpflag:got another amazing winning time :cheers:

I have a busy week but should have another challenge up and running soon for another 2 week run, How often do you want these? Are you all keen on another one soon or a little break and spread out more?

Well I have had time today to mess around with a few TT's and come up with the Mclaren 570s in 'Old Town' Scotland, TT -fastest time. After so many tries on different tracks I only ended up with a 1m.00 but I think there is 4-5 seconds off this for top spots around the 0.54-0.55..so it should be down to the 100ths again.

The city track is quite straight forward, a few sharp bends and sweeping corners but mostly enough space to put all the power down on the straights of the lovely Mclaren 570S (A car I don't tend to use much) so it was nice to get back in to this car, powerful and quite nimble to handle around the tight turns.

Good Luck again:gtpflag:-I have run this for 2 Weeks and feel free to forward on to anyone to get the numbers up!..:cheers:

 
Morning / Evening / Afternoon / Night wherever you may be, I joined in a few of these previously when it was under someone elses wing.

@KennyL74 forwarded the challenge to me last night but i've only just tried it now. I have a Low 56 time at the minute but the 55s are more than achievable. Only problem was i had to stop after a while as i like to rely on Ghosts rather than split times 👎 . I'd post a screenshot but it's 6am at the time of writing and i've been up all night.

I don't want to make a fuss :lol:

For those that don't know, My PSN is ArsenalKid1990 :cheers:
 
Welcome again :sly:👍 No problem @OzzyOzborne as you have the challenge now I will add you to my PSN and forward future ones to you, all are optional and you decide when you want to join in (Its only to test yourself for a bit of fun against the faster drivers) I know you are v.fast so look forward to seeing what times you can achieve :cheers:
 
I shall take part in this once I have the time. We get to drive a car from the 2nd best modern British manufacturer :D
 
I had an enjoyable hour or so on this last night, The thing that struck me most about this one is it never really gives you chance to relax, your lap can unravel very quickly if your not fully concentrated.

My lap, still some areas to fine tune.

Who knew being chased by someone with a Hat i'd like to own and a masculine looking mustache i'd love to have plastered on my face would be so terrifying yet exhilarating :dunce:

Especially with the time gap, that's basically butt-clenching.
