Been a little while since I last did a TT, so will require a bit more work to get to where I want it. But this is all I can muster for the moment:

36.726
35.093
 
Classic combo Pekka. 👍

Setup tweaks - max speed 180mph, springs 18.0/16.0, camber 2.0/1.0, toe 0.0/0.0, max aero, LSD 5/20/5 5/40/10, torque split 40/60
Damper settings, if you don't mind Chris!! :sly:
 
First splits.

36.474
34.775

As always, still messing with my tune, but slowly getting it there.
 
Vaga, thanks for the video, pretty sure I'm "driving miss daisy" right now. haven't even written times down yet until I get the feel of driving a sim again. Its a far cry from the kart I drive on saturday nights. lol good to be back...... I think.
 
Well I am proud to say this is my first try at Time Trial #90 in a row!!!! Some would say I am just a little obsessed (My Wife for one) but I don't mind! 10 more to go till I have reached my goal, and then it is time to set a new one!

Al

Love this car BTW!!!!

Congrats Al on #90. :cheers:
 
Tried your tune vaga and love it. That car is so much fun in that tune it's not even funny.

Something happened to me while trying to improve though and I just couldn't stay out of the red. So I decided I was done with it for the night and headed over to the GTA TT...

I have myself so screwed up right now I cant even stay on the track for one single lap BEHIND my ghost from a few nights ago that's 5sec slower than my current ranking!

I think I need a day away from the wheel :(
 
Looks like a nice combo, I love this track, but I can't seem to tear myself from gtacademy.

Great going, and good luck getting to 100.
When you make it to 99, it would be nice if you were allowed to choose something in the tt that would be your 100th like suggest the car or track. (Not sure if this is allowed but thought it might be a nice idea)

Hey Al! Amazing accomplishment. Props to the dudes born in the 60's (early 60's, like myself!) What was your division place 90 tt's ago? Any wisdom to offer in respect to your skill evolution over that time? I for one could use some sage advice. Rock on Al!! If your wife is like mine, she understands yet shakes her head a lot.

Heck fire Al, only 10 to go, no problem!! You the Man. 👍
 
Great going Al 👍 Dedication to the cause. :sly:

I'm sure Al has some advice he can offer... but feel free to ask if you need any tips and techniques. :)

Better through sector 3 and up a tenth at the line. Done a few .8s in sector 1 now and .0s in sector 2 so still a bit to find. Great combo.

Edit:

35.978
34.153

Another half a tenth off in sector 3.

Nice job on #90 Al, keep it up.👍

I remember Al started in D4 Bronze with me way back when. I even beat him...once........I think. Now I just chase his taillights! :D

Bravo, Al! :bowdown: :cheers:
 
Grand Valley Speedway is enough to distract me from GT Academy for a little while :P

Using Chris's tune, though with torque split of 35/65:

36.328

Hey Chris, what is your line through rolling left in the very beginning of sector two? It seems slower to hit the top of the curbs on the right of the middle of that turn. I want to take it lower and exit on the gas. Am I making any sense?On another note, are you using any E-brake touches anywhere?
