[Jump_Ace]

******LEADERBOARD UPDATED******

Track – Special Stage Route 5 Forward (Section I) and Reverse (Section II)

Rules – Please follow all rules outlined in our initial WRC Thread

Forum – Please feel free to discuss strategies, any and all “T” Times, just no final times.

Time Submission – What I need from you now by Sunday Dec. 18th @ 12:00PM (PST) is a Private Message for Stage V with BOTH Section Times.

Leaderboard – You can find the running Leaderboard at this address:
http://www.luxy.ca/gt4/leaderboards/wrc/
Here is the address to the stage and overall points leaderboard:
http://www.jumpace.com/gt/WRC/LB.htm

Side Dish – This track is centered on hitting your apexes, so car correct position will truly aide in your exit speed, try to eat up as much of the track as you can especially in areas where the rumble strips stick out away from the wall.

Here's something to get you in the holiday spirit. Be sure to have your sound on too

Sweet @$$ Light Show

Some guy living in Cincinatti (uhh I guess Go Bengals eh? Quite a season for them) I dunno how long he spent setting this up but man what a show!

Man that was one hell of a video ... what a great, great light show!

Layed down the law in my WRC last night and well....either some miracle happened and the car now is in tune with my psyche...oorrrrrr......I got used to it 👍 Either way what was happening at Tsukuba wasn't happening here (as much) and I think its because of the wider track and less hairpins. But it was great fun taking my wrc around especially after what I was 'expecting' it to do. And for some reason my reverse time is .3 faster than my forward time...AND...I spend half the time on the reverse section too....strange evening. But I'll post some splits once I get another car 'done'.

I do not usually like using page view, but in this case I made an exception.

Is anyone else besides me and Max running this week? :-P

Yeah. I just havn't got around to putting up some times.

My car is perfect for this track except for turn 1, where going down the hill it tries to do a 360 everytime!

 

[Redline Fox]

Yeah I have the same problem with the Stratos. With the RX-7 I can manage to stay on the gas until I actually get into the tunnel then I hammer the brakes. But the Stratos is just so touchy.

You'll probably be glad to know that I'm going away from the 23rd through 5th, so I will not be able to complete this series. I'm also very busy this week (and next?) preparing for my trip and getting all my christmas presents in order, checking off to-do items and etc.

I *may* be able to submit a time this week, but I'm not sure ... either way, I won't be putting in a huge amount of time and may not be submitting. I'll be leaving that open.

I am going to post a little voting poll at the top of this thread if I can manage it, majority rules on that and I"m split in the middle, I dont care if u guys wanna race now or later its all good

EDIT: There that wasn't too tough So vote honest and all that, remember I dont mind extending the series so you can enjoy the holidays! *HINT*...lol.
