Grand Prix Rejects

Shizuka wrote:Seeing BCS not really being able to beat the target time (and not due to being slow), while I dived easily below it without much effort, I believe the GT2 laptimes should be multiplied up to 110%. So a 94 second lap should be 103,4, which wouldn't match Clarkson's time, but for example, a 92 second lap ~ 1:41.2 in 110% - would be there.
This would also give chance for others.

What do you think?

No, I'm getting there now. I didn't realise how crappily I was taking the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th corners. I think I can eke out a high 1:36 now.

Alright. Still I feel there's a need to compensate, I did a 1:32 a few minutes ago, and there's still room for improvement. All on stock tires...

Hmmm. Well, I just did a 1:37.7 now, so you might be right, but I'd wait until we got some more GT4 times in.

Just to clarify, my times were set on GTPSP, not GT2

Sent in my time now. I could've probably improved by almost a second if I could get my sector bests all stringed into one lap, but I couldn't. So that'll have to do now.

Here's my entry. Stock tires were used after my posts here. My time is a 1:30.470 on GT2.

Reminder bump: Don't forget to send your entries by Tuesday midnight!

Well, I sent my video link to MinardiFan by email ages ago. But I know from previous experience that the messages sometimes do not reach their recipient.

So, here's my entry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pDPhUeRTQk

Just emailed Minardifan. I lost about a second on the last corner on my best lap, which goes to show how bad my other laps were really...

I'll have another crack at it tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get the e-mail in in time.

Here's my video link for my lap on GT5! Just in case, Minardifan doesn't get it in time!

Feel free to comment on it!

I was wanting to enter, but I don't have time now before the deadline, so "oh well!"

Here's my video. Man the NSX is a handful wihtout TCS or ASM.

Has anyone actually got really annoyed when you have failed a licence test and the fail music is mocking you like you're some sort of idiot driver?

I am requesting that the AIDS Ban (except for ABS) to be re-enforced during the next round.

And I'm requesting my GT2 time in Laguna Seca to be multiplied up to at least 105%.

I am requesting that my GT5 time to be multiplied to at least 103%.

And I'm requesting my GT4 time to be multiplied by 95% due to how incompetent I am.

Still, there is no way I'm 2-3 seconds faster than non-GT2 runners on stock tires.

Here's the results for Round 1... only two weeks too late


You may have noticed a change in the points system - the overall championship will use the current F1 points system, while the series' for each game will use the pre-2003 standings (which I haven't calculated yet).

It'll be a few days until the next round whilst I try and sort out the organisation of this series, it does need a bit of improvement on my end.

See the reasoning behind the multiplier? I was the only GT2 runner, and with this „penalty”, I was suddenly in the field! Thanks for applying it
Also, damn, Takagi's time is impressive on the PSP

Yes, about time that the results got posted! Overall, I was pleased that I took the win on my first try.

But, man looking at the times, I will have my hands full trying to win back-to-back rounds, the times at the top three were within a second of each other.

How the hell did I gain 14 seconds on FMecha?

Allright, I was talking with BCS on the chat room last night and we thought of an idea for the next scenario.

Scenario 4-2: "Better Motoring"

Track (GT2): Grand Valley East Reverse
Track (GT4): Grand Valley East Reverse
Track (GTP): Grand Valley East Reverse
Track (GT5): Grand Valley East Reverse

Car To Use (GT2): Any Japanese Road Car from 1990-1999
Car To Use (GT4): Any Japanese Road Car from 1990-1999
Car To Use (GTP): Any Japanese Road Car from 1990-1999
Car To Use (GT5): Any Japanese Road Car from 1990-1999

Allowed Tuning (GT2): Clutch + Flywheel
Allowed Tuning (GT4): Sport Hard Tires/Clutch + Flywheel
Allowed Tuning (GTP): Sport Hard Tires/Clutch + Flywheel
Allowed Tuning (GT5): Sport Hard Tires/Clutch + Flywheel

Other conditions: The Nissan R390 Road Car and GT-One Road Cars are BANNED. The Ban on TCS and STM is being enforced.

Help figuring out the potential time multiplyer for GT2 would be appreciated, of course this will also require MinardiFan's approval to become the second round.

Sure, certainly a better idea then anything I could have come up with

I would like to enter this using GT PSP but may I point out, you can only do the tyres on that game.
