Nice splits Rutter 👍 I've not bothered doing much with the setup yet - car feels pretty good already. Just done some minor tweaks with the toe, camber and LSD. Might try your later. :)

2.0/1.0
0.00/-0.25

LSDs 5/15/5

Managed to stay flat through Eau Rouge finally

34.346
1'02.281

Flat through Blanchimont too. Then braked too early for the chicane and lost a few tenths. Had sooo many red-clock laps its not even funny.

Glad to know this is possible. I wasn't sure, so am glad you mentioned it. Also thanks as always for the setups. 👍
 
Screw Eau Rouge, I prefer to take the final chicane flat out - it Really, Really improves the Lap Times 👍

Made it clean - Didn't lift, didn't hit a wall, or anything (including the actual corner) :lol:
 
Nice shortcut Marc 👍:dopey:

Some more laps and a lot of red clock laps :ouch: really difficult this combo, sometimes it looks like we´re on ice

T1: 34.460
T2: 1'02.693

Really bad T3 after this :yuck:
 
First splits.

An hour at full power, default settings:

T2 was pretty timid, so I hope to knock a good chunk off still. What a track!
 
Been a long time.....

A pretty big bobble in T2, but an overall decent lap. Not sure if I will have time to run this one anymore. This combo is awesome, and I had to at least give it one go. :)
 
A quick session with Chris' setup

34.513
1'02.858


EDIT:

Another 0.5 of my OT

Laid off yesterday...
Plenty of time for this! :cheers:

Ive done spa 1 time before this, expecting nothing good to start. :ouch:
 
Sorry to hear that Kent 👎 Anything lined up in the near future?


Jerome
 
Yeah, I think that's why we are pushing so hard. ;)
I do hope it stays this way till the end of this event :D
 
New splits. Really didn't make the most out of this lap, bit hesitant in last sector.

T1- 34.248
T2- 1.01.982
 
I saw Jon (GTP_Carlos) log in tonight, so I hope that means he's made it home on time, and will be joining us! 👍

Can I be an honorary Belgian, as my grandparents are from there? :lol:

Oops, I had a dirty ghost loaded, and I finished just behind it, so it wouldn't let me save my Best Lap Replay. Won't be making that mistake again!

EDIT: Nevermind, beat that lap by a tenth. 👍

34.463
1'03.065

Welcome back, Jon! :)

Yeah, I'm home after 30+ hours of travelling. I have 2.01 installed but I'm now working my way through a virtual credit card application so that I can buy the DLC safely. May get it all working in time for the next Spa event...

EDIT: Still waiting for the virtual credit card info to come through, so in the interim, I have the car purchased, options bought and Frankie Powers is running the car in at the Tokyo B-spec seasonal, and earning money in the process. Too jet-lagged to run tonight anyway, so will try and get a session in tomorrow night.

:cheers:

I don't think I'll give it another try.
No matter if you set the suspension upside down in this car, the behaviour is the same one. :odd:
 
New Splits:
T1: 34.627
T2: 1'03.674

I had a red flag lap that was even with this ghost at end of T1 and finished a second up on this lap.:banghead:

Not liking how this car handles, but then I've always been a RWD guy. I mess up turn 1 so often it's embarrassing, and I went far too slow through the last right in T2 on this lap. 0.5 faster at the line but probably mostly due to reaching full power. :)

A little better at the start and end of T2, slower in the long fast left...

I honestly do not like the car. It feels so synthetic. If it just sounded anything like 790hp should.

Or am I just making up excuses for not getting Bruxelles and Stavelot?

Welcome back Jon, but this is not a easy week, the track is great but the car...:ouch:
And don´t really understand why the hell if you touch some rumbles you crash and other´s you don´t :crazy:
 
Well, I improved my OT by a second but there's still plenty to come. New splits.
