First splits with a broken in car.

15.211
16.459

Massive improvement in sector 3 this lap to gain .25 at the line. I'm getting lots of 15.1s and 16.3s in the first 2 sectors now, just can't seem to put them together at the moment. More time will be put in tomorrow. đź‘Ť

I know .4xx t2's are sooo Sunday afternoon, but it'll do for now. Also a tenth in t1.

260 hp, not sure if that's full power yet.

Yep, D2 for you for sure. Don't know what gave me the idea that I could compete with you as you are far above my skill level for sure. đź‘Ť Do me a favor though, when you get to D2, don't forget about us here in D3. :lol: Its been a blast trying to compete with you Brandon, but you are clearly out of my league. :bowdown::bowdown: Best of luck to you my friend and it has been an honor to compete with you here in D3.

Thanks Mitch! I've really taken hold of this ds3. I remember you beating me about 3 weeks ago. Motivation to make sure it never happens again. LoL when I get promoted, I'll have to worry about the beasts of d2. :scared: you'll make it there soon Mitch. Just gotta give it your all. Youre fast enough bud.

Okay so I completey skipped the .2's and ran a .199 for the first sector. Now I'm gettin .4's lol no idea how I done it.

15.350
16.529

3 tenths at the line over the other splits. Had a lap with a 632 at t2 but made love to the next corner.

I've set my goal pretty high this week. If I get it, it'll be a shocker.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, however there is no way I am even close to being fast enough to be in D2. I got a ways to go yet. Its all good though because the journey may be long and hard, but its a great learning experience. Still have a ton to learn and a boatload of practicing to do.

My life is about to change, for the better, and in about a month or so, I will be moving out of this depressing hell-hole. I'll have a place to myself to finally call my home. Then I can really get down to some serious business without all the destractions I'm dealing with now. God I can't wait. Anyways, sorry to ramble on, I'm just super exited about things right now, that's all. Peace.
 
Struggling with balance and endlessly restarting, but getting there eventually.....

Managed to find more time in sector 3. I've gotten as low as a .114 in sector 1 and a .31 in sector 2, so more time is possible to find.

Dang. What's the trick to .1's in t1 lol you div 1 people scare me.

15.272
16.462

Losing time in t1 & 2 but gaining time in t3. Here starts this.
 
Do you guys use 1st gear at all? Never seems to be worth it.

Lots of time to gain in S2...

17.094

Hard to believe you can make the car spin in corners if you're too radical on the throttle, this car seems so slow compared to the MarkIV...

That's why you are on S1's. ;)

And consider them a gift, I first tested this on C3's. :)

Slower splits, but a decent T3

Best splits I've seen so far are a .166 & .574
 
Juan Antonio.... :crazy: Great splits mate. đź‘Ť

I had a quick go again last night but couldn't beat my sector 3 and ended the night .03 down on my best after being up a tenth at T2.

On the plus side, I have just placed the order for my Clubsport wheel!! Base and Formula rim pre-ordered and due around mid-October. Woooot! My missus is totally awesome! :D

Edit: No 1st gear anywhere, no.

Turns:
1 - 2nd
2/3 - 3rd
4 - 3rd
5 - 3rd
6 - 2nd
7 - 2nd
8 - 3rd or 2nd. Turns in better in 2nd but better traction in 3rd.

yes, but in the last corner to the finish end I have a small fault and I lose one tenth, I'm not entirely happy.

in the first sector use the handbrake at two points I have bad customs ... almost all my miles in-game I have no abs and will not the handbrake i use, but when I put ABS on i caught the bad habit of using ... :indiff:
 
Had to get my rotary on... and FFXIV is down for maintenance anyway. :embarrassed:

15.276
16.915

Nice T1 but I spaced out the rest of the way and missed on every single corner. Apex, speed, braking, everything. :indiff:
Got loads to make up on that blasted theoretical best.

Edit: Found a half second though I lost that T1.

After putting in a few laps early in the week and loving the combo I thought I'd get some time with this one this week but work has gotten in the way again :(. Hope I can find some time before the deadline.

That T1 from Juan Antonio is insanely fast :crazy:
 
After narrowly missing out at winning gt academy it has given me the inspiration to get back in time trialing,
So will be giving this a go first one in couple years Ish!
