Fruitless last session and the solitary 1'04.8 I got the other day was a distant unbelievable memory.....

Submitted with current splits. Pretty disappointed overall.

Good luck in the results, folks!

Before you all gasp, I was a lot slower at the bus stop and gained only 0.023 overall.

I'm calling it a week, I have to be up really early (04:15) tomorrow and I really should be in bed by now. Fingers crossed my lap holds up...
 
I haven't driven this or anything else since last Tuesday and even then I think I only got in 20 laps or so. I have nothing to submit so will move on to London where I'll hopefully get some seat time. Good luck to those that submitted 👍
 
I too will not be submitting this week. I have went over and over my lap with the last posted splits and found it to be clean, however, very, very close. I would hate to put someone else through the pain of checking so I will just save them the time. All of my replays are very close, except for one which would put me way down on the leaderboard, probably around last place to be honest, so to me it would be pointless to post.

It was a decently fun combo, but the bus stop is just a real pain, not only to get right, but to get right and be clean about it. Still, I learned a few things along the way, so it wasn't a total loss.

This one goes to you Brandon. I could have never caught you in a million years anyway. Epic splits my friend.....epic splits. :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown: See you all in London. 👍

*GASP* witchcraft!!! You sure blew that one wide open didn't you. Now I feel awful about my t2.

I'd submit it anyway Mitch, if you're for certain its legal. Thats the point of verifying replays other than to check the Times. I don't think anyone has a fast t4 without it being close in a spot or two. I wouldn't consider a close lap a pain to check, if I was checking and someone walked the line (Johnny Cash!) I would chalk it up to driver ability. Mine is close on the right rumble strip of the exit and I'm not happy with my time either, but I've done the best I could do. Be It 1st place, or last place, no one can fault me for a performance and I hold everyone else in the same light. I look at everyone's performance, no matter their division or placement; and how they are improving. That's what we are here for. The competition and improvement.

On that note, I've driven over 1, 400 miles this week. The most I've put into a combo yet. When I started, I didn't know Jack about Daytona road course. Like many of the tracks, I had only driven it a handful of times and hated it. As frustrating as it is at times, I've grown to like it. So thank you Chris for the t1 video and thank you Lucas for t2. I honestly would have given up if I hadn't been given a little guidance.

Good luck everyone else still running. Hope you find the times you're searching for.

No problem, Brandon, was a pleasure battling with you this week. :cheers:
I think I was at 880miles when I started last night's fruitless session.

You still got a hour.... hint hint, wink wink, nudge nudge. ;D
 
Barring last week's holiday on Monday, my typical Monday's are spent at work and sneaking off as often as possible to hit F5 on GTP and watching all the lucky ducks that get to run up to the deadline. ;) It's a rare treat when I get to banzai till the deadline.

LoL I know the feeling. I sometimes get to do rest area banzai runs. Not this week though. I'm on a tight schedule tonight.

Well done Matthew for your first win! Crazy laptime!
