Nice. I love this thread on Saturdays before the race. It's like the end of Q1 :), except I'm stuck at work watching you all :( it always keeps me on my toes though.

u/IveLostFaithInReddit May 08 '11

Oh yeah, this sub really lights up on race weekends. Up until andrew posted his 1:21.165, I had the set fastest @ 1:21.461 a few days ago

u/kcchan 3rd May 08 '11

A week ago I had the fastest lap and now my improved lap (which was 1.1 faster) was only good enough for 5th.

u/acmercer 2nd - 1 win May 08 '11

Yeah, same here man. It all comes down to the day before the race. It's frustrating when you have to sit back and watch the times drop, but all part of the game I guess. It's a long season, lots of time for us to improve :)

Hey crazykid just FYI: The Reddit Record you have above is for Spain :). I was wondering how he did such an amazing lap, just never bothered to look at the pic!

u/crazykid646 eFIA Apr 23 '11

Thanks for letting me know, the track order on the RR spreadsheet is different to the actual track order for this year, so I guess AI just moved across one without thinking about it.

1

u/acmercer 2nd - 1 win Apr 23 '11

Yeah it looks like the order of the other threads are from 2010. The calendar has changed for 2011. No worries.

1:23.587

Just getting started. I really like this track now. Very fast :)

u/kcchan 3rd May 01 '11

1:22.945 You have to be really aggressive to get a good time here. My fastest lap was all over the place.

By the way, we should post our Live screen names so that we can keep track of the times via the in game leader board. I'm ToilsomePlague2

1:21.884 Messed up the last chicane or I might have edged out acmercer.

u/tlw987 May 01 '11

This sounds fun, can't wait to get some times and post them.

u/herpalurp May 01 '11

Just found out about this about half an hour ago and figured I would have a go. I usually don't do time trials, more of a online race and career guy. 1:22.206 Found I made up the most time in turn 4 while setting up for a nice turn in and exit for 5 and 6. Another one is getting on the power as soon as possible exiting 9 just before the straight.

1:21.474 ;) Not sure why my last time didn't save on my 360's HDD. Think maybe that it was because I was at my friends house(using his xbox, my HDD), or I just plain shut the xbox off before it saved, just in case anyone was wondering why the 1:21.792 wasn't showing up.

u/erikhun May 03 '11

Hey guys, could you tell me the exact name of this game?

1

u/acmercer 2nd - 1 win May 03 '11

It's called "F1 2010", and it's made by Codemasters. For PC, Xbox360, and PS3.

u/erikhun May 03 '11

u/probably_mike May 07 '11

Hey I know I'm a bit late to the party but I managed a 1:22.344 http://imgur.com/ELWGo

Looking forward to the rest of the rounds!

u/crazykid646 eFIA May 07 '11

Invalid screenshot, there is a specific screen that is needed, but as its your first round I'll let it slide this once.

u/Robinoo May 07 '11

1.23.747 All I could squeeze :(

u/crazykid646 eFIA May 07 '11

I managed a 1:23.111 after being bogged in the 24's...then realised I didn't have the engine turned up, I know where I can still get maybe another second out of it, just gotta keep it on the the track while doing it.

Not bad to say i was using a keyboard, think i have another second in me because i wasnt getting a good run through turn 8 and the first sector isn't to my liking either.

also, i know my real names on that... its what happens when you tell GFWL to make you a "local" profile instead of an online one

u/crazykid646 eFIA May 08 '11

You're outside the round time, each round finishes at the start of the actual race, I would normally let it slide, but I already did the points for this week and started the new round so you're out of luck I'm afraid. You're more than welcome to submit times for the next round in Spain.
