Thanks for the link, very helpful.
For those of you with Fanatec wheels out there (at least the GT2) you can program the buttons using the Logitech Driving Force Pro menu under options.
I just programed L2 for the RA menu, and the Dpad to navigate the menu, very cool.

Sweet mother of....this looks fun
Jerome
it is..... until you nail 2 good laps and miss part of the track by 1" in the next to last curve.........
I looked at it from every angle and you could barely have placed a finger between the tire and the curb..... I was sick.... but raged on and finally put three good laps together..... fun car and track.... tire combo makes it a little more fun too.

This track is so short that it's easy to try different options. Was messing around with brake balance, set it to 1/5 and did this.
14.984
17.429
10.297
Set it back to 3/7 later and was doing similar lap times so the improvement is more likely to be from learning the better lines through corners.

Strangely addictive combo - just spent 2 hours on it without even noticing the time pass. Good choice of tyres Kev 👍
Nice splits Wes and Phillip 👍
TwistedMetal - welcome to WRS
Bad manners to start beating everyone in your first week though. 
Some splits for me:
14.835
17.093
10.081
Looking for probably another half a tenth in each of T2 and T3... Going to spend a bit more time on it this weekend if I can to make up for missing out on last week. Good luck all.

not much improvement with my best lap, but made decent gains on other laps. getting more and more consistent.
using 4/8 BB I change it up frequently, but always put it back. can't get close to the same times with 8/5, but times drop off after first lap... with 4/8 my times improve..

Some gains this afternoon. I've gone as low as 15.05 in T1, but can't seem to get to 14.9's no matter what I try.
T1: 15.127 👎
T2: 17.260 👍
T3: 10.280 👍
A bit better tonight with more consistency and finally had a few 14.9 sightings in T1, but always followed by a slightly sub-par T2...
T1: 15.023 👍
T2: 17.448 👎
T3: 10.181 👍
Now if I can keep T1 & T3 the same and get T2 back down to 17.2 we'll be in business and maybe give Teecro a run for his money.

Slower split times but faster laps. Wish I could've had a couple sectors faster, but I'll deal...for now.
T1: 15.127
T2: 17.183
T3: 10.217
Manged to finally do a tiny bit better on my splits. Better total time.
I know I can do better, it's just being consistent that's a pain.

Lol, I found myself always having to restart even if I messed the first corner up, I just fly by the seat of my pants, hope to put a decent first lap in and then hold on for dear life hoping the the next two laps follow suit. Alot of the time buckling under the pressure on the final lap.
I didnt realise we could actually adjust the brake balance?

Welcome aboard Mr Metal. You can set up your controller to change certain settings in the race. See the link below.

I got into the .2s last night - it's ALL about how you break and position the car for the right/left/left/right at the end, running out wide (ish) initially works pretty well for me.
Using 5/7 here with DS3, ABS 1 - if you turn any of the assists on you're mad and will be slower

That's a sweet T1.
Looks like you are doing what I'm doing though and sacrificing T2 to get there. I get a good T1 by hitting the gas real early on turn 2 (left) but it swings me wide and I end up with too much "wheel screech" through the next two rights which are in T2. I'm guessing that's it at least. I've gotten early gas and decent exit line by swinging wider before turn 2, but then I can only manage 15.1's. T2 ends up better that way and I end up at the same place at the end of the lap.
Obviously the top drivers have figured this part out because they follow a 14.9 with a 17.1 or better

I go pretty wide there and keep a minimum speed of about 100 km/h through the long first turn in T2. The key is to go inside - outside - inside. I don't think that's the most important turn in T2 as the next turn in T2 is the most challenging I think. You can drift through it, you can take it smooth. The key is to keep the speed up and let of the gas as late as possible.That's a sweet T1.
