For those reading who may not know, iRacing time trials are single car competitions which run on the track being raced each week. You have to do a series of laps without error and it’s your average laptime that goes forward as your final result. Points are then calculated as the week goes along so that the fastest car overall gets 100 points and the slowest gets 1 point, if you are exactly between those two in time you would get 50 points.

I missed weeks four and five due to how busy I was with work. Still, I found myself in contention when I returned so decided to carry on competing in all the TT’s I had previously. With Week 6 of the 2010 Season 2 (almost) in the books here are my time trial results (at time of posting) from Week 6 only:

Series Track Time Pts Div Pos Overall Pos
Skip Barber Race Series Sebring Intl 2:36.171 23 11th 113th
Spec Racer Ford Challenge Watkins Glen 1:31.380 29 14th 95th
NASCAR Class A Phoenix 29.003 19 1st 28th
NASCAR Class B (NW) Phoenix 28.621 52 1st 44th
NASCAR Class C (Trucks) Phoenix 28.849 82 3rd 27th
Silver Crown Cup USA 19.654 48 1st 12th
SK Modified Series Bristol 16.285 50 2nd 57th
Late Model Tour Stafford 20.893 67 1st 69th
Advanced Legends Cup Oxford 17.602 82 1st 29th

As you can see I did great in all the oval divisional points, getting a top-three in every single one again. I didn’t fare so well on the roadcourses, where a track that’s becoming a bit of a nemesis managed to destroy me! I simply have no luck finding a rhythm at Sebring…

So with the points totalled up after Week 6 I find myself in the top-three for every single oval time trial division I am competing in, holding first-place in three of them. This is especially surprising considering in most of the time trials I have two weeks less scores on the board than everyone else, so in two weeks when we reach week nine I should leap forward as other people start to drop their worst weeks and gain smaller amounts, while I still have two full weeks to score from!

I seriously think I can still finish in the top-three in every single time trial division (even the two roadcourse ones where I currently am in eighth-place). An overall title is looking a little out of reach now, but it might be possible to make the top-three in maybe the Silver Crown (I am 13th and have those two weeks in-hand).

It is still looking like I might not be in a position to take an overall time trial championship, although I am doing pretty good with the Advanced Legends, Silver Crown and SK Modified.

Here is the points as they stand at time of posting, close to ending Week 6:

Series Pts Div Pos Overall Pos
Skip Barber Race Series 213 8th 61st
Spec Racer Ford Challenge 199 8th 44th
NASCAR Class A 139 2nd 38th
NASCAR Class B (NW) 187 3rd 45th
NASCAR Class C (Trucks) 267 2nd 60th
Silver Crown Cup 239 1st 13th
SK Modified Series 274 1st 34th
Late Model Tour 250 2nd 59th
Advanced Legends Cup 264 1st 30th
