Nice splits again Usual mate - running D2 this week 👍

Close between the rest of you at the top of D2...

Rutter - nice splits there too ya bugger :cheers: Its a run to the finish for the podiums in D1. My T3 is a bit messy and need a couple of tenths there.. I have a lap with splits 0.2 down on my posted ones but only 0.003 slower at the line. So I reckon I'm looking for another 0.3 or so on the lap.

Chris, your last splits...👍, alien territory!!

Thanks Dan but that remains to be seen... we may be surprised with what Dan H can do with it... :sly:

Peter I see you lurking mate - you not running this week? :)
 
Haha thanks Chris. Thanks to you as my new spilts were with your setup 👍
 
Thanks Chris 👍

Not so sure about the final results, because T3 is "gigantic" and it´s so easy to gain or lost several tenths in it.
 
T1: 13.859
T2: 41.092

Turn #1, my best T1, but I concentrated so much on that, that T2 stayed about the same, a slight dip, however T3 and overall was 👍.

Treading water on the board. :lol:

Just have to make the T1 sequence second-nature, the T2. :nervous:

@Chris: :cheers: ;)

EDIT: I did have a T2 sub 40.x but found an invis-wall on the left exiting turn 12 [photos below]. :grumpy:

New splits

T1: 13.432
T2: 38.974

I got excited on exit of last corner and nearly binned it in the wall on the right! Think lost about .2 cause of it:ouch:

Such a motorsports bonanza this long weekend. Moved to the online TT for a bit and some online racing with some mates, quick ride through national park, and between Le Mans, Motogp , F1 , Isle of Man and (still to watch) replay of superbikes yet!

The long weekend isn't long enough! Hope Nizzy didn't get too drenched at Silverstone, it looked miserable.
 
Oh well.....not enough seat time this week to get close to you demons in Div 4. Submitting the quickest clean one. This car is actually magnetically attracted to the walls I believe. Gotta try harder in week 18.

New splits, slight improvement at T1 but awful T2. T3 surprised me. Still nowhere close to what I can achieve though, which, combined with the lack of time I had for this week, makes it an extremely frustrating combo. Seen plenty of 13.5 T1's and also some 39.0 T2's but always managed to nudge a wall somewhere in T3. I left about a second on track. Time submitted.

No offense, but I don't think it'd be right for Div three to be running 52.5's this week. :scared:
jk 👍
 
Submitted...slightly slower splits but cleaned up the last sector a bit and gained almost 2 tenths at the line over my previous best.

T1: 13.590
T2: 39.246
 
I have submitted with these splits.

13.623
39.551

Slower splits, but a decent T3 meant I improved my lap time by just over 2 tenths.:)
 
I'm submitting with these splits:

13.626
40.184

I'm not real happy with T2, but the overall lap is as good as I'm going to get tonight.
 
Submitted with:

13.607
39.276

There's a 1/4 of a second out there, but not consistent enough. May try again tonight if I have time, but unlikely.
 
Nice T1, Dan! Submitting with these splits, which probably won't move me on the leaderboard at all...

13.995
40.183

Thanks, but wish I had your T2. 👍

Probably will only get one more chance before the deadline to improve on it, but I don't have much hope of getting earlier .40x :grumpy:

Good luck, Lucas!

Submitting with splits on the board. Not sure about my T3 as it didn't feel real mega but we'll see.

Good luck guys!

:cheers:
 
Still having internet trouble, but it was working for a few hours so managed to get a new lap and some new splits down:

T1: 13.486
T2: 38.947

This is with an older setup with rear aero off the back, might give a newer setup a go 👍
 
Not been around for a few weeks with one thing or another. But been off sick today, so needed something to take my mind off it.

T1: 13.574
T2: 39.568


T1: 13.637
T2: 39.430

submitting with these splits, I saw a few fast T2's, but ghost would always pass me in T3

enjoyed this week.
