Desperate last session before leaving for the day, and it worked
. PB sectors 1 and 2, but got really nervous and cautious in T3, costing me that perfect lap 
. Still pretty happy.
Used the stock suspension settings, with 0 rear toe. Thanks you Dennis for the tip 👍. Very kind of you sir
.
Good luck all. It's gonna be close!

if I could have that and and my best sectors 2 and 3 combined I'll be happy, hopefully in the next hour or so.

Stock suspension is a little slower through T2, no doubt in that. But the time you gain in the high speed turn 1 and the esses in T3 more than make up for it.
Nice T1 Jon.

Try my tune, it is fast through turn 1 and also quick in the middle sector 👍

I won't be home till after the deadline. Plus I don't think I would have improved anymore, y'all 3 in front are aliens.

Lost some time in sector 2 from my best but sector 3 was my fastest this week. Using stock with some LSD and camber/toe changes and my own gears, switched from Chris gears to my own and gained a bit not sure if its psychological or just cause I had done almost an hour so my lines were better. Now trying Johns (Bandits) tune maybe I can gain a full second
Have a theory, since the update lowering the car tends to increase understeer, and also adding downforce, so if you used your tune before the update it would likely be faster
Edit: can't string it all together, I could play all night and only improve by a tenth which I think is really a waste of time I may regret that but lets hope sector 3 is good enough to keep my position. Good luck to the last min folks.

Thanks Mamba, thought I'd try the stock tune and ended up going a full second faster. Now I'm wondering why I'd bothered with a setup at all for the series I ran in the car a while back

Just managed a new best lap - with a T1 time of 33.319. 
The only problem is, there is one point where I am seriously close to having three wheels off (in T2, oddly enough) and it's right on the edge for two whole tenths. I could check every single frame to make sure it's clean, and I have checked a few that all show two wheels on, but I don't want to put anyone who may check my replay through that hassle, plus I'm wasting valuable time that I could be spending trying to go even faster. T2 was pretty poor anyway (32.160).
If a steward wants to take a look at the replay I can send it to them by PM. Unless I am explicitly told the lap is clean, I shall consider it dirty.
EDIT - New splits:

The overall lap is nearly as fast as the one described above, so I've dropped it altogether.

Gave it a few laps before deadline. Worse T1 + T2 combined, but overall better. Best I can do , until I see some replays to see what I could have done better.

I know these are too late for the board to catch them but...

Wish I had tried the stock tune sooner, left a fair amount out there. Managed .25 better in my last ditch effort though.
Edit : Nevermind, forgot we just sprung ahead. Guess I put my wheel away too soon.

Much quicker lap, thanks to a fantastic T1. If only I could master T2 as well, I'd be among the aliens.
Submitted my time, I can't see myself improving by more than a few hundredths.

No, there is no hard and fast rule for the effect of lowering the ride-height, it depends on the car and aero balance if applicable.
Got a last minute run in - improved my lap time by a massive 0.03 but still left 2 tenths out there between sectors 2 and 3. Still, not bad for only a couple of hours effort this week. Great combo. 👍

Wish I had another few hours to play with just to tie a better 2nd and 3rd sector in too. Never mind... Good luck guys.
