You actually can adjust anything that's not greyed out. Check the first post for the rules. Theoretically, if you win, you make the rules.

rallytheshytoutofwrx · 2006-03-07, 07:31 PM

cool - imma try again on trial mtn, sadly still with my controller, this time no weight and lots of power....

edit: ahhh, the rule sheet. got it, thanks.

(my 1.39 was using the end shortcut and stock power/weight/etc..)

cody · 2006-03-07, 10:30 PM

No shortcuts!

I just put in 11 laps and I'm down to 1'41.265.

cody · 2006-03-07, 11:28 PM

Ha, I have a pic I'll post in a sec, but Gary got 2nd.

I finished with a 1'39.789, but I'm just going to post up some drift laps once I get 'em edited.

bemani · 2006-03-08, 12:04 AM

what's the next challenge?

Okay... this in no way compares to the stuff the "hard core" GT4 drift guys pull off... it's just a pair of laps where I do my best Tiff Needell impression.

Laps are around 1'45 to 1'50 IIRC... so you can see how much slower sliding is.

TT8 Drifiting!

Oh, and nice job to Alan, Gary and Cody... anything 1'40 and less is impressive. That car is difficult to drive quickly!

well we decided from the beginning that we need photos to validate the time and you have the only other photo ...

outferno · 2006-03-08, 02:28 AM

Sperry: those are some really clean drifts you had. A few of the turns you could have drifted also, but it would have slowed you down. Very nice though

outferno · 2006-03-08, 02:31 AM

Oh snaps, I just noticed Gary Sheehan is an actual track driver! Snaps. I just have to ask you: how realistic is GT4? And vs Forza? (If you've played it).

rallytheshytoutofwrx · 2006-03-08, 09:09 AM

i got a 1.38, only a little more than a second better than with no power and more weight. on the last corner i drifted in 4th 2 inside wheels just gracing the off-course/rumble

cody · 2006-03-08, 09:10 AM

Did you have 2 wheels above pavement at all times?

Well, I was trying to go for some good times, but with soft tires up front, and medium tires in the rear. The car rotates very easily like that, but is damn near undriveable at high speeds... If you listen carefully you'll hear me brake for the chicane at the end of the course, and again for the T1-T2 esses... turns you should normally just take flat out.

So, my experiement with the tires made the car much more fun to drive, but also made the it a lot slower.

GarySheehan · 2006-03-08, 09:56 AM

I got a 1:37.499, but I didn't photo the screen during that session. Now I don't know how to get that same screen up (that shows the track, hp, time, etc.). It's saved in the Replay Theater, but it doesn't have that status screen at the end.

Can you play the replay and snap a pic of the time at the end? Or better yet, go buy a cheap video capture card so we can see your lap.

bemani · 2006-03-08, 10:24 AM

Just get a snapshot of the record screen (the podium icon)

rallytheshytoutofwrx · 2006-03-08, 02:24 PM

uhh well io was drifting and if there was a rumble strip i wouldve been on it..not sure if there is? anyways i didnt get a best time so it doesnt matter, but i think rumble strips should be fine. also, like going into the first tunnel, you are able to go inside on the paved stuff right? i took the rules as no grass/sand cutting....like in real racing where you CAN do it but you can't advance a spot, or in this case, count your time..

whast the next one?

The rule is basically "two wheels on the prepared surface at all times". So the curbs are in fair territory, as well as any paved areas adjacent to the track. And because of the two wheel rule, if you cut a curb so deep that the two inside wheels are actually on the dirt, you're lap is still legal because the two outside wheels are still on the prepared surface.

The only exception is when jumping the car. Then it's okay to leave the track, but you must still maintain at least two wheel "over" the prepared surface, even if they're not actually touching the track.

For example, check out my turn 4 in this lap: http://www.seccs.org/gallery/Car%20P...2_1-13-393.wmv

That's about as close as you can cut it.
