Sickening! What settings did you use for this time?

Still using BB 3/10 I don't think I can go much faster, I left about 1 tenth in T1 and about another tenth combined in T2 and T3 but I think this will be my submitted time for this week :)
 
27.350
34.013

Got so nervous in T3 lost almost 3 tenths there :banghead: will have to go again and see if I can catch Litchi :)
 
Finally starting to get this track figured out. Thanks again for all the help my my fellow WRS friends, I owe this one to you guys. Without your help, I could have never gotten this far. I feel I can do better still, just got to keep on it. Pretty close to the barriers in the last chicane, but I checked it several times and looks clean to me. I couldn't have got much closer tho. Anyways, here is my new splits.

27.858
34.317
 
Still not a perfect first sector, but the two following sectors is as close as its gonna get for me, think I will submit with this lap wich gave me antoher 0.254 at the finish.

27.661
34.007
 
Crazy splits Bandit. 👍 That sector 2 is impossible.

I don't know if I'm in this one to be honest - I ran it for an hour earlier in the week (current splits) but been sucked into other things for the last few days (namely - I developed a love affair with the 1969 Toyota 2000GT... amazing fun in all stages of tuning :D) Might give it a go tomorrow but looks doubtful now the F40 is out of its box :sly:

Cheers Chris, really enjoyed pushing this car once I figured it out 👍

The trick is to get the car turned as effectively as you can and then use the throttle to control the slide round the rest of the corner ;)

Got another tenth I've seen in T1 but I've lost my patience with the combo. Submitting these.
 
Can't catch ghosty! Oh well, submitted with the splits on the board.

Finally got a decent run at this tonight. Not especially happy with any of the sectors, but no more time to get the other tenths...

27.518
33.853

Some very fast splits up there! :scared:

Same. Actually, I was so happy to see 1.00.8 at the end of T2 that i messed up my T3 by 3 tenths at least :(

And thanks for the compliment 👍

EDIT:

27.367
33.548

And I should find 2 more tenths in T3, hope to match it before the deadline :scared:

Ahhh so so frustrating to nail a really really decent lap, I know what time I want to get but just ever so shy of it little taps with the wall the main issue, silly understeering car :P!!

Anyway I'm finishing on;

27.069
33.818

As you can probably tell I lost 3 tenths in the middle sector but other 2 sectors were pretty decent for the most part!
 
Don't worry about it Tidgney, I've struggled like crazy with this one cant seem to get to grips with it this week, so much so I gave up on Thursday running this one. I've binned it into the wall some many times into the final chicane :banghead:

:(, it is very frustrating. I suppose that's the challenge :D! But :banghead: is essentially what I was doing about an hour ago couldn't be bothered with wall banging anymore lol :P!
 
Seems Im not the only one frustrated with this one :lol: the car seems to have a mind of its own. sometimes I brake at a marker and I've braked too early the car turns in just fine, other times Im too late and understeer, even though I braked at exactly the same marker, very frustrating this.
 
Somehow I didn't get annoyed with this one and only did minimal wall banging, just finished shooting my video for this week, look forward to seeing what everyone else's lap times are 👍

Good luck to all submitting their time :gtpflag:

100% agree. :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
I want to break everything in my apartment now. Do you guys think I should stop to run? lol:dopey:
 
Thanks Jon! Good to see you back in the mix!

And yes Litchi, stop running now. It's going to be very close :scared:
 
Lol I wouldn't say I'm in the mix by any means!!! Won't be submitting as I haven't run again, but I'll see if I can get a good start in the F40 before we go on vacation Friday
