GT5 GT5 Time Trials Archive

[UMC 22]

The question of who the fastest drivers are in the GT5 community is soon to be answered! There's no opposition and no excuses here. It's just you and your machine versus the track.

The time trials will be open to all RaceDepartment members, both licensed and unlicensed. The only requirement to take part is that you own a copy of GT5 and abide by the specific restrictions imposed by the TT. Events will run on a variety of tracks but will make use of GT5's borrow feature to ensure that everyone uses the exact same car with the exact same upgrades. The cars will be supplied by yours truly.

The prize given to the winner will vary but may include items such as cars, helmets, suits and paints, or the choice of car/track for a Club racing event. And of course, you'll win the respect of your fellow drivers.

Above you can see a little hint of the car and track that will be used for the first TT event. Stay tuned!

I haven't beaten it yet and i don't think i will unless I get a amazing lap in tonight

Congratulations to Matthijs and Patrick ! Matthijs was in his class but have to recognize that 2.-4. places were close

 

[Karl Warburton]

Well done Matthijs , very nice time, look forward to getting closer to you in more time trials.

The Winning Lap by Matthijs van Vendeloo​

 

[Dragos Haba]

this might be a dumb question but where is the save best lap option.

 

[Mike Campbell]

When you're done your lapping, choose the save ghost lap button. That'll be your fastest lap. I think that's what its called - not at the PS3 yet.

 

[Markus Hakamo]

Umm, I think it just called " Save best lap replay"

Immediately when you exit from free practise track, you are the screen where you see your best lap time from last 10 sessions or so, and the "buttons" including this are at the bottom of the screen.

 

[Dragos Haba]

But that saves the whole session, so i should save the Ghost ?

 

[Bradley Vanian]

But that saves the whole session, so i should save the Ghost ?

No, If you press "Save Best Lap Replay", it will only save your best lap.

 

[UMC 22]

There are two save buttons. One saves the replay of the entire session, the other saves your best lap. The best lap save button is the round red one nearer the right-hand side of the screen.

1:17.267 Same as Sam's time

Lol... what are the chances?

 

[Karl Warburton]

Never thought I would get any better than that, but I just did a 1:16.883, that is probably the best I am going to get out of this Just uploading it to YouTube, had to use the phone as I do not have anything to capture it on

 

[UMC 22]

Congrats on being the first to get a sub-1:17 Karl!

If you want, you can send your replay to me and I can make a video of it for you. My little capture device isn't capable of uber quality, but it looks better than mobile phone footage. (See the various other videos I've posted for examples)

 

[Karl Warburton]

Thanks Ross, Stupid question coming you way, how would I send you the replay?
