Lost a tiny bit in T2... was getting low 7s - but this is my fastest T1 by half a tenth and a reasonable T3, though I know there's a few hundredths left in there too. Pretty difficult to get this thing nailed to the track, you have very little room for error at the maximum speed...
 
Can anyone tell me what's with Fetchy? I sent in my time but I didn't get the usual "your time is accepted" message I got with my earlier submission?

I actually messed up on turn 3 on this lap, mainly becuase I just seen my sector 1 time and thought to my self don't mess this up. So I freaked out for a moment but held together in the end lol. Becoming strangely addicted to this TT :lol:
 
thanks, beat my old time by .1 so I was happy with that :D. I know there's more time in there but not sure I'll come close to your splits. Turn 2 is a killer it's so easy to end up in that barrier, so I was glad to get that time in the bag :P. Can't wait to see the results not knowing anyones T3 is killing me :lol:

Still nothing back from him? It can take a few minutes at the most. I can tell that you've PM'd him, by looking at a couple logs, but I'll ask another Admin who's more familiar with Fetchy to take a look.

Ditto since yesterday! No Submission accepted PM!

Surprised my splits have kept me at the top of D3 for this long.

I'll be submitting even if I don't get more time this week, but I'll be taking a break from WRS again.
 
*Sigh*

Tearing up T3 like crazy now, but I can't get a decent sector 2 anymore. Saw a .685, .702 and .717 in T1 only to blow it.

Starting to get perilously close to :banghead: territory.

26.802
20.785

26.699
20.793

Grinding the cobbles around the final turn can yield 162 and a bit mph over the line.... it's not easy to do though. I have seen 26.66x in T1 but Jon has lent me his ability in T2 to...not do it properly. Will have one last go on Sun.

Getting 26.5's every time and a few 26.4's but clearly doing something wrong in t2.
That was my first session with this combo tho... i'm sure i'll fix it ;)

Haha, sure that aint a typo for T2? Or did you push the car through the esses? ...Out of petrol? :dopey:

Been there all week. I hate this track but can't stop running it... half hour or less per session though for stress reasons... :sly:

Another small step towards the goal:

26.717
20.598

Up 0.1 at the line but still looking for 0.2. Last go tomorrow while the missus has her hair done. :P
 
Wow...I feel like an idiot...
I misread Lester's post as 26.5 20.5, I got scared of losing my position and spent 2 hours improving...

Anyways, improved by whooping 0.172 (!!!) with 1 tenth found in T3 alone.
26.535
20.588
 
Does anyone feel like giving me a hint on turn 2? I can hit mid 7s in t1 about once every 50 laps. Driving me crazy.

Nice t1 Matt, hint, hint.
 
I love this crazy trilobite of a car, not so sure about the crazy track. Let's just leave it at that.

Second session, slightly less :banghead: :

27.100
20.810

Not sure I want to put more in here, even if I know there's .2 in T1 alone. Can't stay on the proper line at speed in T3 to save my life, and I'm inconsistent in T2 when I haven't bounced off the wall in T1.... a challenge to be sure!
 
I love this car, I love this track! 10, 2/1, wide everywhere, apex when possible!

26.889
20.840
 
Had enough of the walls. Taking a run at wk60 for a few days before I go away. Will submit with my current splits.

Cheers

luck and laps. That's it. You must stay high and find the sweet spot where you can full throttle the exit from halfway round the turn without hitting the wall. The difference between an 8 and a 6 is how long it takes the car to bite as you hit the gas after slowing.

Edit:
26.729
20.814

2nd best T3 ever by just 4 thousandths and it's up there with the best I can possibly get. STILL at least 5 hundredths going missing in T2, just can't work out what I'm doing wrong, earlier in the week I was getting .750s pretty regular :(

Edit 2:

26.731
20.802

+ epic T3 + submitted. Onto next week.

As Fobia suggested earlier, I don't think submission responses are working. I have no receipt for my submission PM, which you would normally get immediately. It says "unread" in the "Unconfirmed message receipts" bit.

What are the quickest assists to be using?

I am using Active Steering on Strong and I have been running ABS at 1 and Brake balance at about 6/9.
 
I'm using AS on Mild and frankly I don't see any difference. As for the brakes I use ABS 10 with 9/10 bb and I'm thinking of moving to something more rear biased.
 
My splits:
27.504
21.452

Can I also ask an embarrassing noob question: How do you change the brake balance in arcade?
