Shift 2 Unleashed - Time Trial Championship Season 1

NIKAZ · 28 May 2011 at 18:13

Regarding 'Valid Lap Times'
If the game counts a lap as valid then it is allowed regardless how said lap time was achieved. It's the same for everybody involved. All I'd suggest is if you find a part of the track the game is lenient on regarding corner cutting share it so all are aware & can exploit it if they so wish.

This is a bit of fun for me & all of you who take part I'm sure. So please play with a smile.

Dan, which Gallardo?
I'm guessing the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 for the mo

danswan · 28 May 2011 at 18:21

Didn't realise there was more than one

LP560-4, you got it right first time.

Well I've two to choose from. The others a GT3 variant. Maybe I won it, I can't remember.

Yep I had two when I checked. It's the 4WD one, seem to remember I did OK with that car in one of the previous seasons.

This combo is really tricky when on limit.

Brilliant times so far you guys. Well, I'm getting there. I think I've got the fastest sector 3 so far

But the slowest sector 1 and 2.

Merlin5 · 1 Jun 2011 at 03:48

That's more like it.

danswan · 2 Jun 2011 at 01:04

*edit* updated with a slightly better time. I have a faster one on the autolog but forgot a screen again

Merlin5 · 4 Jun 2011 at 03:30

I have no idea how you lot are getting into the 1.04's but I give up, just impossible to get more than 4 hundredths off my last time. I think I should stick to my adventure games, they don't make me angry.

Hi Merlin,
It's your turn to pick the combo for week 9. e-mail me or post in this thread around 6 this evening if you prefer.
Cheers

Congrats dan!

Ok, I'll get the ball rolling. No idea if this is a good time or not until others post theirs. Video included. Not that you guys need any help from me, it's just for fun

danswan · 4 Jun 2011 at 22:15

Thanks Merlin, & nice lap. I've got no idea if it's a good time either, but I'm struggling to beat it at the moment anyway. Big difference from the last couple of weeks cars, I definitely prefer the 4WD cars, not sure why. Never driven this track before either, so lots to learn

Thanks. Ah, you're only a half second behind me, I think you'll be in the early 1:24's or even 1:23's before me. I chose RWD because I seemed to do well on spa in the porsche, so I dunno, maybe I'm better in RWD. I purposely didn't choose 4WD because of your skill with them, hehe.

Just got Shift 2 today with a Logitech GT wheel.. Will be starting taking part in this once I get used to the game xD

Just out of interest, anyone happen to have this wheel who could share their steering/throttle etc... sensitivity/deadzone settings? Or actually anyone with a wheel full stop xD Just would be interested to try a couple of profiles... Having some issues with some of the sharper corners atm, but that might just be me failing to brake soon enough rather than anything else... xD
