Had to take a break from playing GT6 for the past 10 days or so since my radial/ulnar nerves in my arm have been acting up worse than usual the past couple weeks.
Arms finally felt somewhat okay today so decided to put in a quick 30 minute session just now.
I thought I was gonna be too rusty to even lower my 1:11.3, even though it's a pretty slow time, since I hadn't run any laps in so long, but to my surprise I managed to get a pretty big drop down to 1:10.7 just a few laps into the session. Got kind of lucky on the first sector, particularly on Turn #2, managed to keep a tight inside line but still carry good speed and exit on full throttle while just barely not going wide and flying off the track to the left on the exit
and then had a mediocre Omega section (for me, mediocre on the Omega is a good thing, since normally I am beyond-terrible on it, lol) so I was like a full second ahead of my 1:11.3 ghost exiting the Omega, but then I screwed up a little bit on that last blind-hilly-righthander before the final curves and gave back some of the gap I had put in my ghost, so only ended up with a 1:10.7 instead of what looked like could've been a 1:10.3
Anyway, feeling like I might be able to get down to 1:10-low or maybe even 1:09-high if I am able to put in a few more sessions before the event ends, so, hopefully my arms won't keep crapping out on me. Sigh.
I was checking the leaderboards during my break though, and saw that Immortal and HansDampf seem to be having a pretty sick competition against each other in the #1 and #2 spots. Every time Immortal lowered his time to put a bigger gap on the field, Hans seemed to be able to keep bringing his own time down to Immortal's newly lowered time, and then Immortal kept having to lower his time again, and so on like that, back and forth and back and forth what seems like 6 or 7 times by now in the past 10 days or so, lol. Will be interesting to see just how low Immortal can go, now that he is being pushed pretty hard by his opponents in this TT.
