Week 6: Seriously Not Serious Gillet Vertigo @ Kielce Miedziana Gora on damped track

Eric. K · Jul 13, 2009

That's is based on Abdul's idea from here. I will update the first post with everyone's laptimes. Each round closes on Sunday

The server is set with 7hours of qualies.

You are allowed to change the setup.

Server name: RACEDEPARTMENT SNS
Password: usual club password.

Cars: Gillet Vertigo - Bruno Said
Track: Kielce Miedziana Gora Poland
Weather: damped track - Rhys Gardiner

Basic rules:

Whoever is the fastest at the end of the week picks a car to run for the following week
Whoever finishes last picks the track for the following week.
The same person can't pick the track/car 3 weeks in a row. In the case that occurs, the 2nd line will choose the mod
Tracks and mods have to be either game default or located in RD's download section

Standings after round 1

Just hope and drive... nothing else to do

As usual, feel free to share your setups (online or via file here)

Bruno Said · Jul 14, 2009

Interesting track :clap2:

Péter Bártfai · Jul 14, 2009

Yeah, really nice track!

Had a run there! 1:40.3 is my best at the moment!

I can't seem to join the server. I keep getting "booted as possible cheat"???

I haven't added anything extra to my install since the last SNS round and I had no problems joining that server. Weird.

There are 2 versions of the track. I am using the version 1.0 from our download section. I heard there is a version 1.1 on NOGRIP

Rhys Gardiner · Jul 15, 2009

Yes. I've tried uploading it, but the page just won't load...

That must be it. I have the 1.1 version.

Question on the format of this SNSC: Can anyone hop on the server and post times? Or do I need to sign up to get on the list somewhere. I apologize if I'm blind, I did a quick look around for such info but came up empty.

Can u please change your in-game name from: Chris-Hoerbelt to Chris Hoerbelt. The - breaks my parsing scripts.

I was relating our time trial runs to a friend yesterday and told him of the car we're using this week. I couldnt even remember the whole name of the car so I thought to look it up. This particular vehicle, the Streiff, a one off version of the Vertigo designed for a paralyzed ex-F1 friver named Phillipe Streiff. The car uses joystick controls and is fitted with an automatic transmission.

Should I[we] give up our wheel/pedals for a week?

results updated.... Bruno takes the leas again

Bruno Said · Jul 18, 2009

I´m going to travel today

I´ll be back soon for Road america enduro.

It is strange that i seem to find my limit very early. I think on the 5th or 6th lap and it just won't get any better.. I get lost after that in the setup-maze and there's no return when you enter there. Well i'm happy in 7th place at the moment.

Jim McGhee · Jul 18, 2009

Busy week for me, so I will have a go today and tomorrow! I have not even loaded the track, no idea what it is like. The car I love though, from GTR2!

Dustin Barton · Jul 18, 2009

Just improved my time by almost a second and a half

1:42.177...could probably get into the 1:41's but not with my setup.

Piotr Misiorek · Jul 19, 2009

What a shame that I missed this topic as I've done conversion of this track

For the future events I recommend using version 1.1 of track which is looking much better, with previous version I made some mistakes as it was my first conversion

João Andias · Jul 19, 2009

Only did a couple of laps as I had other commitments this weekend, but liked the track/car combination very much. The Vertigo is a pleasure to drive and this track remembered me of some old local town tracks over here (pt).:good:

I'm with you, Kennett. I struggle with the setups, too. I quickly get in over my head once I start making changes. Give me a good setup and I'll trash it quickly if I start making changes.

Well, I tried one last time to get out of the bottom spot, tonight, and I managed a 1:44:06. Not quite enough to get Mike.
