well, if anyone could answer...

is everybody putting 2nd gear in the middle of the spoon corner?

also, did anyone else found that is better to brake, and then after that reduce gears, to reduce RPM´s? (in race cars, you can do those at the same time with no trouble...)

play little this week and i´m a bit lost, so, if anyone wants to give an input on this...
 
I run spoon in 3rd the whole way.
enter @ 75mph, clip the outside kerb, squease the brake a bit, then power out. never dipping below 61-3mph.
makes it kinda senseless to dump down to second, since second bounces off the limiter @ 70.
 
Time submitted, I sort of ran out of time to race so probably no podium for me, we'll see how well my time stands up, it's the same one that is currently represented by Luxy's Leaderboard. Good luck all 👍
 
New T1: 40.661 but with a second half that makes it seem more like a 40.961

Very close call at third corner, but after viewing replay in photo mode a few times I can *guarantee* I have atleast one portion, albeit tiny, of two wheels on track at all times.

same for me, but not on third corner, on the degner, but after a boring 1 hour of replays, and some pics, i have 2 wheels on track, and also veil is cheking for me, so my final split is:

40´679 (i guess is that, but its 40´6 for sure)

made a big mistake after t1, so, top 10 will be a bonus for me... not a good week at all, lets move on, too little, too late in this one
 
I got bored of this combo a few days ago so submitted my slow assed time earlier in the evening. Good luck to all of you.

Leaderboard updated for the heck of it :)
 
Submitted. So disappointed, had no time to run to try and improve my time :grumpy: . Tried running in the few minutes I had and got a T1 of 40.702, but blew it somewhere between there and the finish line, as my time was slower than what I had previously run. Probably could have had another 0.3-0.4 off my time...ARGH!!! Oh well, enough whining, on to next week!
 
i will submit my time, over 4 am here, im just too sleepy to play any more.

i didn´t get enough free time to play this week, so i am sure i could had done lot better.

good luck to you guys. ;)
 
Didn't have another chance to race this one, which is disappointing for me because I know that I could have improved.

(And Koly you don't seem to have updated my time, which was:

T1: 40.698 ) ;)

Nice to see the GT4 Gods coming to play with us this week. 👍 No doubt I will be royally reamed in the results.

Good luck everyone 👍
 
Submitting my Time. I'm not very happy with it. I've been .3 faster than this on a barely dirty lap.
 
Time submited, good luck to all.

Didn't have much time for this week, not that it matters because i would still suck after 40yrs or trying :)
 
Time submitted, 2 days of prep (didn't see this till sunday) But i did bad, real bad, but tbh for me its all about the fun, unless there are any 1 handed DS2 users? Could get close then? ;)
 
well, it was kind of funny last night, up until 2AM checking veil´s lap before i got to sleep (too late to help me on my run) and also cheking my lap to be sure... (also to be sure that i flucked the hairpin after T1 pretty badly...)

but, it was not as bad as i thouhgt, for the combo... i got 1 second behind the leader i think, could be worse...

everyweek, another lesson of driving, this week, was about brake lock, braking too hard that causes understear... that´s my biggest problem with normal cars, i still can´t be really "smooth" still have a mentality of attacking the turns like they were the last on my life :crazy:

also, angles were very important.... found out that i could gain a lot of time in the degner if i braked late, and with the car already sliding through the first leg of the turn... easy to say, not so during the lap... also, by making a lot of restarts, i ended up forgetting how to be faster on the hairpin after T1... at least i fixed the spoon, really improved there...

lots of bad temper in the 130R, because of my brake lock, my car always seems to want to jump into the crowd... anyway, this is not the kind of combo that suits me, but i´m getting better in those situations... (combos with normal cars) in the end i could be very close to the second barrier i wanted, if not by a stupid mistake after T1 in my flying lap...

just my 2 cents... can´t wait to see the results, not for me, but for the fight on top of the division...
 
new crazy splits fastest ever from me anyhow!

T1: 40.508!
Quick somebody update the leaderboard :P

Cant get my butt whooped by div2 guys! im div1 now! This is for u flat-out and jerome :D
