Slowly getting there, but I might not get another chance this week to improve. Im certain i can get into the 40.xxx at T2, but putting both sectors together...hmmm
I dont know how you crazy D1G bastards gettting sub 15.7 splits. You probably nail the lines over the bumps. I've had a 15.7 once, but I botched the lap.
Nothing like racing tyres, understeer, and a bumpy track with walls either side to show you how crap you are when you thought you were improving...
I feel like an absolute beginner again doing this combo. I've seen some fast sector times but seem incapable of converting them into a lap. Best T1 so far has been 15.735 - I was stoked.... and then stuffed it in the wall after the 1st tunnel (again). T2 is always crap - can't seem to manage the understeer on that tight right hander so even if I don't crash, I can't carry enough speed through there.
One more attempt tomorrow when I'm not pulling my hair out and then I'm done. My utmost admiration and wonder at the speed some of you guys are managing... I have absolutely no idea how you're doing it.
Pretty happy about that, it's been bugging me for ages. I'm not sure whether to break out my wheel or not, I'm quite happy using a DS3 for these quick direction changes, it's not as if I need throttle control (although manual gears would be nice).
Having a little extra brake bias at the rear does wonders as well.
I've seen a 15.811, so I know I've got at least another three tenths to take off. Of course, I'd say I only ever make it as far as the first split ten percent of the time.
Oye...can't get the car to stick around the corners..and that 2nd gear turn after the first tunnel is killing me. I know I have a long way to go for the first two sectors..the second two are pretty good.
Ok, this should be fun. Thanks Joost for the work on the splits thingee, that was starting to make me a little loopy. Love the combo, reminds me of the "old days" hehe. Anywho, first few runs got me here so far:
T1: 16.578
T2: 25.858
T3: 21.495
Obvious room for improvement, and looking forward to it!
