Impressive, Lou. I have no idea how I used to drive well like this :lol: really struggling to exit the last corner without oversteer. Potentially 51 flat with the pad I think, not too bad!

Thanks mate, I seem to usually be ok with the last corner - its that left straight after the second split that gets me.
Im still trying to find an optimum tune, but I can post what I have if you fancy another go with the pad. I usually go for a lot of negative rear toe, and raised rear suspension.

I seem to be quite fond of 22.24s in sector 1. :P

Think I found one of your old 22.24s in sector 1 Chris ;)

T1 22.249
T2 28.365

Lost my cool through the final sector and only just beat my ghost by half a tenth. Lost a bit in sector 2 as well, but starting to get the hang of the first sector.
 
22.587
28.708

Got it right that time!!! :D leaving .15 in t2 that I'm to tired to go after :d

Nice remo!! That's an unusual spelling! It's a place in Kentucky :)
 
Another 45 mins of frustration. I can't take the 1st corner faster than 104 mph and the rest of the track is the sh-ts! I think I may wait to see what the next week brings.

Come on, don't be like that old man, you can do it.👍 I'm having a bit of a struggle myself as the last half of this track has always given me fits but you just have to stick with it. NGU. I got faith in ya old man.;)
 
Careful there, Gayle. If you start listening to Mitch he'll have you trying to chase him down and blowing your handicap off the planet. Oh.....wait.... :D

Never say die, buddy! :cheers:

If I stopped after 45 minutes of trying to get the 1st corner down I would of had a lot more free time today lol I bet I restarted after the first turn 60 times today. Try different braking points and techniques. You'll get it!

Btw, congrats on d3 silver Mitch. 👍 gotta watch my heels, you're movin up nicely.

Say what.......something happen that I don't know about?
 
Finally got a look at this one, man I love this car. These were done at 248hp.

22.421
28.291

A tenth left in t1 and t3.
 
Just for clarification please.

On the last corner at the exit on the left there are grey cobbles/rumble strip to the left of the white line, is this considered track?

Aw nuts, Mitch and Baka, now I'll have to give it one more try. :dopey:
 
22.794
28.833

I swear I'm getting red flagged with two wheels on asphalt in T3. :mad:

Totally missing apexes because I don't want to overturn and swing the tail out. Took Chris' tune and bumped the springs down by two each so it is less bone rattling. :) Now if I can find a way to keep that tail tucked in... Gonna go play with toe settings I think.
 
Not run in yet, still futzing with the tune.

Decided to let the Bobs run it in for me so until they're done here's my best time so far.

T1: 23.273
T2: 29.771


Bobs did their job and it's now broken in and the oil's been changed. I think I've got the transmission sorted or at least very close to it. Still more tuning to do but new times.

T1: 23.166
T2: 29.101

After 250 miles I've managed to convert some good splits! Still lost about .150 in sector three as was cautious at the start and ran wide on the last turn, but did get a nice straight slingshot out of the turn. I've had many .2s in sector 1, but this lap had a brilliant exit into sector 2, which more than made up for it

22.341
28.176

Getting sick of blowing the last part, it's like threading a needle on horseback. You only need to be 2ft out on a turn and you'll lose .500

Anyways, this is my setup

no fetchy these ain't splits
-22 / -17
13.8 / 14.7
7 / 9
5 / 7
7 / 7

2.0 / 1.5
-0.05 / 0.10

11/18/13

BB 4/2 ABS 1

3.472
2.690
2.185
1.800
1.500
1.292
(3.500)

No TC, ASM or AS

Found some time for a quick afternoon session. Improved a bit this lap but threw away a 50.38 split in the last corner :(

T1 22.259
T2 28.209

Might sneak a few more laps in this evening.
 
New splits after a quick morning run.

22.459
28.699

Still having trouble with the last half of the track but I'm getting there. Its a work in progress.
 
hoping to actually have time to put in some laps tonight, 4 brits on the leaderboard and the other 3 are 1st, 2nd and 3rd, think I need to pull my finger out now :D

No, according to the OP any concrete is not track.
