And here I've been practicing the Zonda R @ Norfschleife thinking you might pick that instead. I totally suck at the LMP cars. :)

 

In case you haven't played pCARS in ages - Time Trial mode is on the right under Community (not where Race Weekend and Free Practice is). Time Trial is the only game mode that pre-heats your tyres for you, and the only way to get on the leaderboard. Ghosts are available as well.

 

Also don't forget to delete your profile (\Documents\CARS) with each new build you download. You'll have to setup the controls and other options each time, but it's worth it.

[Ozzmcom]

had some great fun, no official time yet. I need to get some sleep first :D

[Ryzza5]

So far I've got a 3:51.690 taking it fairly easy. It's a tricky car to handle on the limit

 

Update - 3:48.459 (forgot I had ABS on though)

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

I think I might join in on this one. Haven't really done a time trial in pCars yet.

 

When is the deadline?

lets say the 9th

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

Alright, cool..

[superhyper]

Would love to take part in this, shame about my wheel :/

[Ozzmcom]

[ATTACH]20662[/ATTACH]

this will do for now

[TheSliumba]

So far i got myself a 3:45:xx

 

but that's possibly not very accurate, i'll see if i can take a screenie after another update finished downloading. MAYBE EVEN A VID

 

First post, go me.

 

See you all around some more from now on.

 

Le EDIT:

 

Kay, went around and managed to make two valid laps out of roughly 7 as usual.

[ATTACH]20665[/ATTACH]

 

The laps after this one was looking to be a good bit better, but then i decided to brake too late for the 1st chicane on the straight and that pretty much was it.

[Ryzza5]

Nice times guys, every time I made it halfway through a lap without screwing up I didn't have the guts to push hard on the 2nd half in case I stuffed up. :lol:

 

 

And I'm sure gusty said he was going to set a time last night when I left him. I also had video recording everything last night but somehow it became corrupt... again :evil:

[TheSliumba]

I imagine it would be interesting to see videos of racing with crabbing cars. :D

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

Nice times guys.. Well done.. :)

 

My time was 3:46:7xx (Maybe :701) - Nothing special, but this will have to do for now :)

 

Here's the video.

[Ryzza5]

704 according to the leaderboard

 

Loire - Oreca 03 Nissan

[Ozzmcom]

2 days left for entries,

maybe we should do an online trackday dedicated for the weekly challenge. Might be fun

[Ryzza5]

Probably easiest to grab a bunch of us when we're all online on Steam. If you're up very late on Tuesday again I should be available :)

We may have to decide what settings everyone should use next time, given we've got various combinations of driver aids and custom setups. My vote would be for default setup and auto clutch + ABS in the Pro driving model. Seeing Ghost's aids after watching him win Route 909 has just made lose a little respect for him :lol:

 

(Although he did win Route 909 with aids enabled as well) :susp:

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

Alright alright Ryzza :)

 

I'll try to do one without assists as well. Haha, so I guess I have to re-earn that respect lol. ;)

 

As for The Crew and driving aids - We found out that it was a bit buggy. I usually prefer driving in minimum Sports mode (and switch to hardcore mode as well), but we had a chance to test it, and we found out that from launch, driving aids was giving the best results, I prefer not to have TC on and all those limitations, but in The Crew, it was annoying that in a drag race where we compared the different modes, the car with driving aids could always launch way ahead everytime - and it wasn't like the car driving in sports mode was doing any wheel spin or burnouts (There was enough grip) - So it was really strange, and therefore we decided not to put that handicap on ourselves for no reason. But there shall be no doubts - I always prefer Sports/HC mode.

[Ryzza5]

I hope you reported that to the devs :)

With those prizes on the line it's completely understandable.

Yup, dw, it has been reported :)

 

Hehe, yea - I am glad you understand :)

[TDUFREAK500]

I dont have a hope in hell, I can only do a 3:55.xx

[Ozzmcom]

alright it's time to end this week's challenge. Congrats to TheSliumba! Ryzza why don't you go ahead and set the new track and car for next week's challenge.

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

Aww.. have been too busy to set a new lap time.. Next time will be with the settings Ryzza proposed of course.

[Ryzza5]

Oh ok then

 

Howzabout Ariel Atom Mugen at Oschersleben (Anhalt) GP. We've currently got the leaderboard to ourselves

 

ABS and auto-clutch Permitted

No other aids permitted

Use Pro driving model (unless you don't have a steering wheel)

[*GhostRacerGTI*]

Interesting, I'll give this a try ..
