My real first go, onboard lap....
56:190
I did the lap with the minimum 5L of fuel as always, and the H shifter too. You can really brake late, and turn in hard with this great little car.......55s are there for sure, momentum is the key this week. Keep going for times guys!! 👍
Edit: Nice laps so far guys!!

Slight improvement, and yes i noticed from your video post @HammyMansell that momentum is key here, i will try again and hope to reduce my time even more, for now it is what it is

Is it okey if i share this here?
My current work in progress rig, i recycle a lot lol, Table top done using my PS4 box, Table made from PVC Pipe, Shifter mount from PVC Pipe, attached to Two 10" Subs, will post 180 degree view as progress comes along, sound is via 2.1 Logitec sub with Creative desktop speakers from leftover fronts which the rest was stolen back in 2005, All wired up together with the main 2 subs

I like it @SpaceBreed
Question, what is the TV size?!
Don't you think you're a bit close?!
I have a 46" TV at home and I was testing yesterday some seating distances just to find the sweet spot!

First set of laps.
I think I can get more of it!
It's just the first long corner after the start straight; it's so hard to nail! Gotta try more!

Thanks @Georgeagea it's a 40", i sit close because i was diagnosed with uveitis, so my vision is limited.
It's 50cm from my eyes to be exact.

Weird and interesting!
After watching your lap, I noticed that you brake almost always before me and yet you're much faster! I'm braking later so probably not nailing the turn/apex or getting unstable and losing time!
I think I'm not following the "slow in fast out" rule! I just NEED to keep that in mind! I always forget this rule and think that I should go as fast as I can and thus brake as late as possible!

Nice setup @SpaceBreed , i still need to get some kind of rig done, my shifter is still mounted to my desk "tractor style" lol..... Way too high up. I want it lower down like it should be, i'm planning to have a go this weekend and construct something!
More great times everyone, keep it up........This TT is reminding me of Gran Turismo, slowish, but fun Japanese car, at a short, twisty track that's harder than it looks.

Just 5 liters of fuel and away i went, totally stock.
Just as hammy said, keep up momentum, you don't need to brake as much as you think you need to, the car can coast around some corners safely with just a dab of brakes beforehand.
This car can do so much more than you think it can!

Lol, I'm sure you're safe from me, but is that a tame racing hamster I see lurking in Pitlane!!
I feel like I've got, maybe, 2 tenths left to find. Plus still playing with a couple of corners.
I didn't go through the S flat out, and maybe more at the hairpin.
Ive got a video to upload, it's a silky smooth lap, so looks dull but it's not all about the drama
Others may find it useful too.... So maybe I'll leave the onboard out for now

Squeak squeak @hobbsy ............I'll have another try later at some point, i think i've still got a tenth to find at every corner, maybe lol...... And i'll keep an eye out for your video, maybe there's a secret to see!!

Still feeling like i'm missing another 3 or 4 tenths for that "perfect" lap.
One little tip, the last corner i gained lots of time by braking a touch still in 4th gear, then let the car roll for 2 seconds, then shifting down to 3rd to stop the back end kicking out and sliding and scrubbing off speed, tricky but great fun!
Really close guys, i think it's 3 tenths covering 4 of us, keep pushing!!👍

You Punk.... Rock hamster
Nice time, 👍
Agree with your tip on the last corner. Gets this right and you should then be shifting into fourth long before the bridge shadow (I think around the first grid place box on left), then onto fifth by the time you cross start finish line.
In hoping to find a couple of tenths in the esses, If the first left is spot on you can keep it flat for the right and then carefully open out the steering.
All these little bits can be surprisingly difficult to string together

Thanks mate, and yes i'm more or less shifting into 4th at the same point out of the last corner there.
Really tricky to string a lap without missing an apex, or sliding a bit and losing time, great fun!
Sure Kevin you can get closer, you're fast as ever!!
