No problem.

7.06.693

Did do a 7.05.901, but ran off for a split second and time went red. So 7.05 is possible.

 

99hjhm i think if you knock your final drive one or two points longer you'll get a 7.04 or less.

 

Blimey!! I did my fastest time last night which was a 7.27 with a crash that didn't turn the time red.

I've tried manual gears but my eye/hands/brain couldn't handle it. I'll have to stick with AT but i've just bought 1 couple of HDMI leads so the PS3 can travel round the house a bit when dancing on ice is on in the living room and fireman sam in my boys room.

 

Epic times guys, dont think Im gona come close to those. Are you running a standard set up?

 

Notice from the vids most people still seem to have their cars set up left hand drive, I couldn't get on with it and have to remember to switch it every time I buy a car.

 

You can change it? :S

 

Maybe. I know I have more time as have been 2 secs down on a split early on in the lap and obviously now proven by 99hjhm that is do-able, but when you know you have done a good 1st/2nd sector, I struggle not to bin it after that!

Quick! Dont know if I can concentrate that long to get round without hitting anything - it gets pretty intense with that time.

 

I'm with you! Had a few 7.26s now!

 

Managed a 7:21 but I was seriously on the limit!
Can we have a competition on first sector times? Done it so many times now i could do it blind folded!

 

how?

 

Bugger, just did a 7.20 but went into the red just on that last twisty bit!

 

i took this format to work and we now have a Focus ST challenge (for those of you who dont know I work at Ford Australia)

my best lap spinning twice with my ST is 7.28!!!
Current 1st place holder is 7.06 (we have photos too)

I will by and upgrade a mk5 tonight to set a time


i think it will be a while till i get to 99hjhm's time lol

 

I just did a 7.19.412 with a couple of **** ups but managed to keep white!!!!


Also did the bestest ever roll/spin on my worst corner

I'm thinking we may need a GT5 sub-forum with a list of challenges!

 

That is amazing

 

Just found a few seconds

 

Nice one Nick.

I was going to offer 16valver a job, but you may be the new guy to join the team.

Be outside RBS, Princess street, Edinburgh, tomorrow, 3pm, with the car running, doors and boot open.

 

what spec is everyone running? I am on some 350+bhp and running an lsd but it seems to have ruined the car slightly...... on soft racing tyres.

 

If we wait till Saturday there should be more money in the safe from all the small business making there end of week deposits, also my temperature of 102 should have gone down by then
