*Holding up the bottom* :P


I kinda figured I wouldn't get much more time to run this week...
 
What's your brake balance everybody?

Haven't touched it yet so 5/5 and ABS 1

No more running from me last night and I won't get a chance for another two or three days, but I'll try and get another session in before the deadline

Happy Christmas everyone, wherever you are :cheers:
 
I just built me a "Vagabond Flyer" and it knocked over a second off my OT 👍

T1: 39.862
T2: 40.771

Man I'd be happy just to get in the 4 second club :(

Just go flat out everywhere and that's pretty much it Lefty... as long as you're pointing in the right direction of course :sly:

I've got two of these beasts so I've run one with rigidity improvement and one without and to be honest there's little difference when it comes down to it. The strengthened chassis feels more precise for direction change but seems to smoke the front tyres quicker on fast entries so increases the likelihood of going wide if you're flying. But then smoking the tyres doesn't seem to hurt lap time that badly if its only a bit... :dopey: In the end, my fastest laps with each car are almost identical so the choice is simply what feels best for you.

Anyway, I've just had a quick half hour session before dinner and found that 0.15 I was looking for on the lap, with these splits....

37.446
38.644

That's probably it for me... almost a magic lap I think (for a mortal anyway). I smoked the tyres in a few places but still came out on top. Well happy with that. :)

Merry Christmas to you too Jon mate. :) Merry Christmas to all. :cheers:

I'm not so sure your a mortal Chris.:sly:

Merry Christmas.👍

Sorry for the double post.
 
May dust off the ol' GT5 disc for this one, that is if I can stop myself from playing from Zelda:SS (Hero Mode) :D

I know I started with a "Vagabond Flyer" 👍
I'll post my exact tune in a few, but first, new splits!!!

T1: 37.889
T2: 39.068

I have maybe, three tenths left in me at t2, and the final corner is solid, but not grand.
Jake showed up, brought beer, brought his set-up, and I went faster!

try cicua's tranny setting, it will earn you probably more than a tenth
 
I thought about that, but this week I'm studying tire wear, and I want to measure the differences between compounds for on-line racing. Keeping a stock tranny also gave me a baseline for LSD adjustments.
 
I know I'm capable of a low 1'16, was franticly close to it but messed up the corner just before T3 :grumpy:

Spent a long 2-hour session trying to beat my times.. Tip: Don't try to practice while ill... Spent a whole hour replaying the first sector just trying to beat a best of 37.815, but crashing into the walls every time :crazy:
 
Thanks for sharing your setup Chukky, need to try something new and I must sort out transmission, as I've been running stock til now :|

Biffy - keep hitting those walls - you're high enough up as it is :D

That turn 3....holy hell it's causing me to want to smash up my television!! The amount of times I scrape the wall by about 1cm, either on the inside or outside.... 🤬 🤬
 
Been chasing this ghost now for two days. Should be able to go at least a second faster but can't put the lap together. Each corner has the ability to ruin a lap. Submitting this as I may not get another run.

39.203
40.332
 
Final splits for me. Slight improvement but much better T3. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!

Al

38.985
40.328
 
Cant catch Al, thats it for the night, might be final, Christmas Eve and all. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!!

38.914
40.636
 
Yes ,finally a clean lap :lol:,

38.509
39.989

Thanks Chuk 👍
 
Thanks Chuk 👍

Happy to help! 👍

I've got to strike my current splits and revert back to the others. Just before the last sector time, the car looks clean. But I've checked the data logger, and it shows a blip. Chukabilly don't play that!
T1: 37.898
T2: 39.214

I've done it once, I'll do it again. Biffy is safe, .... , for now!!! :sly:

Managed to cut 4 tenths off my total lap time, after half an hour of concentration. Gunning for that Silver spot.

T1 - 37.778
T2 - 38.732

There is my response Chuk :D
 
Nice work, Biffy!! 👍 Here's my current splits.
T1: 37.766
T2: 39.226

That second sector is killing me. :ouch:
 
37.771
38.951

Very careful in t3, think it's about .1 off but I don't know if I can match the first two sectors again.

Very nice driving Biffy.
 
After a few days of not touching it, here is about 15 minutes worth of work this morning...

T1: 39.212
T2: 40.938
 
37.839
38.855

Slightly better splits and I got my .1 back in t3. Going to submit with this time. I may get another look on Monday but we'll see.

I did see a 37.5 t1 but thats unlikely to happen again.
