Well, I guess I'll chime in my div2 t times for the leaderboard. Still amazed at the times some of you are getting 
38.540
1:18.781
DFP
I know where I can shave some time, just can't seem to translate it to the wheel and pedals
I know my times aren't tops, but having started this comp running with 40.xxx's and 1:2x.xxx's I'll share my insights for those who are loosing hope.
I cut almost a full 1.5 seconds out of my lap times when I stopped the binary throttle usage. Either I was standing on the throttle or I was completely off it. Same with the brakes.
Another thing that I'm doing is utilizing weight transfer. before entering a corner brake hard and eas back on the brakes while easing on the throttle. I've noticed this keeps the nose planted reducing understeer.

T1 37.462
T2 117.255
And that is it. I know I could be faster but I lack any more time to try to pull it out. I will submit my time and see where I stand.
Week 1 was a blast!

I have just finished a quick 10 lap session. I finally managed to improve my split times by a reasonable amount, cutting almost one second and a half from my previous best lap time.
Here are my splits:
T1: 0'38.080
T2: 1'18.173
I don't see how T2's in the ballpark of 1'16 can possibly be obtained, but I would be more than happy to manage to get into the 1'17.xxx.
I will run some more sessions tomorrow.

I hesitate to even post my times since they still stink, but since I dropped over 5 seconds off my lap time, for me they are an improvement.
T1 39.394
T2 1'21.353
Watching the replay the lap looked a lot more sloppy than it seemed while driving it, so it gave me lots of ideas for improvement. Still a LONG way to go to even come close to the top numbers (gosh, there must be a reason why I'm in D3, then!
)

)I've improved a lot since my previous post. I tried using TCS, but for me it made that little jump even harder. So I turned it of again. My final T times are:
T1. 37.651
T2. 1'17.837
I'm really proud of my overall time, and at the start of the week I never thought I could get a time like that. After a lot of practice everything just clicked and I started getting high 37s in T1 (my best ever is 37.4xx) and making the jump in T2 quite regularly. I hope I don't have to play as much on the next challenge though (still need to unlock the endurance events).

Cool, my brother almost went to UoP, but he got a full ride at Pacific Lutheran. Oregon is a great place, I have family up there.tuff240Cool, not too far away. I'm over in the valley by Modesto. Well at least for this month. I'm moving to Portland at the end of the month.
Smallhorses is over in the bay also. He travels a lot for work though.
