Menu: Time Trial
Time trial is an off- and on-line mode, so you must be connected to the internet. You race stand alone off-line
but your results are uploaded to the VRC server after you are finished.
Time trials are short off-line runs to attack the track record or improve your personal best for that track and
car. The result is uploaded to the VRI server and can be viewed on the VRC website on your personal page and
on the track page of the track you just raced on.
The duration of a time trial is just 2 minutes because time trial is more about sheer speed than consistency. A
time trial is always for your current car-track combination.
Time trial preparation
We assume that before you do a time trial you want to drive on the track and make some final adjustments to
your car, check specific zooming for that track etc. Therefore you should select the car and track that you
want to do a time trial on first. This is then your current car-track selection.
When you are ready to do a time trial run you click on the stopwatch object on your pit table or on the Time
trial button at the top. The Time trial dialog opens showing your best results from the past and the track
conditions.
Starting procedure time trial run
When you are ready to do your time trial click on the Race button. The warm up is started and will be 1
minute. You can also click on the Start qualify button if you want to start your run without warm up. The start
procedure is the same as for a run in a race event, the only difference being that you start from the pit lane
and your clock is started at the first passing of the start/finish line.
Racing
During the time trial run you will hear your lap time announced and a count down from 1 minute, then 30
seconds to go. When the time trial run has finished passed you will be told to finish your lap. When you pass
the finish line you will be announced as finished and what your result is.
Return your car to the pit lane until you arrive in the pit stop area. The pit stop dialog will be displayed for 10
seconds, after this the replay recording will be stopped and you will see your result and lap times.
Result
The result will be displayed, by clicking on Lap times you get an overview of your lap times. The result,
including the lap times, positions and incidents will be uploaded to the VRI server. You can view and analyze
your result on the VRC website. When you are done click on OK. You will return to the time trial overview
dialog and can do another run by clicking on Race, or return to the pit table.
