The most underrated car in the game.....the Zonda is a LOT better car than what is modeled in the game.

With that said, this ought to be a fun run.
 
It should be a interesting week . Trial Mountain with the zonda well i believe it could have been worse, but its gonna take some time because the zonda is not easy to drive especially at trial mountain
 
What a rythm you need for this combination, scary!!!

Yes I am new -at the wrs- at least.....Hope to have fun here

For those who do not know me:

Father of 2, GT and rockclimbing as passions. Have some time available, just lost my job as of 1 october, if my efforts pay off, I'll be back in a job at november the first.

Wish me luck!

15.060 14.270
34.032 43.032
59.758 58.270

update 6 more laps

"mountains of time" to be lost and gained at this track.
 
Welcome to the WRS, K2. :) Hope you will enjoy stay here. What a interesting week you have chosen for your debut. :crazy: Bet I'll learn something out there. :D

Good luck with your new job. 👍

Edited because I came over my morning grumpiness. :)
 
Welcome here, K2, and sorry for your job. (But it was perhaps a bad one).

@div 2 racers :
We used to be extremely close (on granturismo.de) K2 and I, both on GT Concept and GT4 Prologue licences times, so I guess we've just welcome another close competitor among us.
Good luck in the Zonda.
 
flat-out

Thanks! Actually it was a good job but the company is transferred to poland and I am not willing to move from Belgium to Poland.

On topic:

I am following the WRS+div2 races for quite some time now and are obviously not putting enough time in yet....I cannot put up with your pace yet. Indeed i know I should, our times on the other series are close enough
 
Just did a few laps, and I really like the combo. Best T3 58.257. I'm thinkin 56's are in view.
 
made in holland
Zonda @ Trial Mountain? Now where did i see this combo before....oh yeah :D

Might as well run this one too. Best T3 56.573

Damn your fast out of the blocks eh :lol: ;)



This one does look interesting though! ... yeppers :cheers:
 
Hey all,
Just wanted to drop in and let you know that I have 1 more class today and then there will be time for me to post last week's results.

I hope you all enjoy this race.

And thanks P for giving me the go-ahead (through lotus) to use one of your races. :D

Back in about 2-3 hours.
Till then,

Nice combo 👍 using TCS best save has T3 of 56.124 .... lost a bit at the end though :indiff:
I'll be back :sly:

Good luck all :cheers:
 
Div 1 come out of the pit early this week it seems.

Anyway, here is my best clean save after 6 laps:
T1 = 14.939
T2 = 33.432
T3 = 59.089

I saw clean 14.2 and 14.4 so there's plenty to expect from the 3 evenings I have left (I'll have to submit friday evening).
 
After first session:

14.623
33.404
58.565

Scary combo, but great fun. :D
 
Leaderboard is up. 👍

I ran 5 laps just to put my name up on the board and somehow hit a few key parts just right to put in a pretty good lap. Surprised myself even :D

@k2racer, check your t times again, there seems to be a typo. ;)
 
Here's my final sectors from my save that's been submitted
13.778 / 31.363 / 56.019 .. as my racing for this week is over now until Saturday :trouble:

Did I mention? that me and Kel are going to London on Saturday for an I-link with Daan and Famine and a few other racers 👍 should be pretty cool :) we are a wee bit nervous .... but should be ok after the introductions are over :D

Have a good race guys and cya's for week 87 maybe :cheers:

Did a few more laps, a lot of improvement but nothing clean yet. I've seen a few low 57's. Blew a 37.8 T1 in the next turn. This is the first weekly race in a while that has been a fun race for me.

Not only do you make us jealous with outstanding times every week, but now you're making us :sick: with envy at an outstanding line up for an i-link too! :lol:
 
This is one of my favorite combos in GT3... I will have to race (and maybe put forth a little more effort... :D)
 
Gah, this is not my favorite combo. I didn't ee that it is a race car! If only it were a stock C12S....

anyway, my first clean lap is 14.3/33.0/59.0. That's enough tonight. I'm satisfied!
 
Just had a lap or two to get things going for my entry:
15.220 / 34.012 / 59.466
Should be a bit to come I think. Especially as I plan to try TCS (hey,if its good enough for Mr P,its good enough for me!)

...check your t times again, there seems to be a typo.
There a typo in your leaderboard : I'm at 59.089, not at 59.809
(You wish you were 2 seconds faster than me, and not 0.001 ;) )

BTW, After 6 more laps yesterday I'm now at :
T1 = 14.642
T2 = 33.173
T3 = 58.288

Not as nervous as I am--I have to fear the introductions AND the racing!
:dopey:

Early time:
14.752
33.331
58.677

Update:
14.668
32.924
57.934.

Hope you and Kelly and all the rest have a blast. I know I would if I could be there. Got any spare change under your couch cushions for a plane ticket?:dopey:
 
Just checking in on the ole' WRS. Interesting combo there GoKents. I like the Zonda race alot, even in arcade flavor. I'll try to find time for this one, but don't hold your breath (I realize I say that every time I am here).

This one could be fun!

I'm not as fast at I-links as I am with hotlap racing in the house thats for sure as I found out at the Rai centre last year ;) but all the same! .... I reckon I can give them a good run for their money :D just hoping it's a good event like the one we had :cheers: and an added bonus of course is that the local delicacy wont be Bob Marleys favourite passtime and my racing will be sharper through non blurred eyes :lol:

Thanks mate 👍
