I got it non-stop last night.... ended up in races with one or two people everytime and never the race I wanted to be in... So I called it quits... I will try again tonight, I really wanted to race here last night... :ouch:

That's sad to hear Blitz :( Besides heavy matching issues, freezing and the usual 🤬 going on at the moment earlier in the evening things really came together. Are you maybe making the same mistake I was making: using the chat clock? That stuffed up one or two of my races, too, the PS3 Clock is the measure now... just thinking what the prob could be. Hope it works better for you tonight and we get some good racing in 👍

All times updated! Hope I didn't miss anything.
BTW: I modified the leaderboard a bit, clean air and draft race laps seperated, think that makes more sence.

Dranddad: If you still like to share your tune (and I remember you mentioning some new times yesterday as well?) you can also PM it to me, I'll punch it in for ya if you like.

Timeattack: Just checked GTdb for your replay to see how it's done and to maybe chase and improve a bit this evening.... not there yet :(. Still coming? :odd::lol:

K, guys, looking forward to another evening like yesterday! :cheers:

Hope things are better by now.... back a lot ealier :)
Hope somebody's out there 👍
 
My lap was in free-run Ren ;) I've not even got into a race yet... had to miss yesterday due to tiredness from pulling 12 hour shifts at work.
 
Lots of matching failed, but got a few good races :) Thanks to all of you :cheers:

Have some new times to share, total time 9.25.044 Free run: 1.51.943
Your tune if feeling better by each race TA :) It really reward smoth driving :cheers:
 
Thanks to everyone for some good close racing despite all the issues, especially dranddad, spaceman_spiff, GTP_RPM, mr_Volcano, Ren and anyone else I missed out :cheers:
 
ATTENTION: New Starting Times: 01min:30secs / 21min:30secs / 41min:30secs

Maybe it does not make any sense to you, and admittedly I can't supply a really solid reason for the change, except a so far rather slim statistic :

I tried to join 3 races earlier yesterday according to the normal schedule => First multiple matching failures ending with me frozen on the track, 3 out of 3 times!

Tried again 2 races after 9PM (normal schedule) => same

Almost ready to give up just for the fun of it Andydavis, Dranddad and I decided to go on an odd-ball time (31:30) => 2 attempts , 2 good races (one even with a full grid (not 512s obvioulsy, but full nevertheless)

For now that's enough to convince me!
Let's give this a trial shot! It can only get better! :)

Asides from that: all times updated 👍

I've got a free evening tonight: on early and long :D, hope to see many of you!

I will upload it later 👍 I need to go pick up another USB card though as I can't seem to find my old one. Maybe I will take some of that money CT laid out on the table :sly: :lol:

Also, I've done two minor tweaks to my set-up if anyone wants to try. The car feels a bit more balanced with slightly more rear toe. The increased front brake seems to make things a little bit easier through the last sector...at least for me 👍

Power -20
Weight 86

Tyres: S3/S3

-30/-30
6/7
4/6
-.11/ +.07 (used to be +.02)
2.0/2.2
7/7 (used to be 6/7)

turning angle: 50
abs: 1

2.782
1.953
1.500
1.217
1.021

3.442

Haha I thought you already uploaded it somewhere TA :D Guess not then.

So instead, I'll have to stay as close as I can to your car in the races. If I crash in to you, it means your brake point was earlier :) Piece of cake 👍
 
Thanks for the update TA! Funny enough I had picked the front brakes up myself already, I'll look into the rear toe again (used to run it at .005 anyway I think)

I'm on now! :) ... a bit later :ouch:

Everybody clear on the new starting times???

I hope it helps at all, but lets run it as a trial for now! Any experience on it over the day from anybody???

Seeyou guys now! :D a bit later

Edit: my plans just got changed by external powers (no big boy pants again). Back in one hour roughly!
