I only have one more day of improvement (hopefully), then I have to hope for the best. I like being in third place and all, but I have a good feeling it won't last. Will see what happens tomorrow. Shame I miss the rest of the week. I really like this combo.

Doing laps last night reminded me how unforgiving some of the curbs are, hit them at the wrong angle and it throws you across the track. Lost a lot of laps during the last event in the Alfa because of them, I'm more aware of now.

My first try and realized after that I had not put the DF on full!

Ooo, you just reminded me too.

Still struggling to nail the GP and the Nordschleife on the same lap, there is a second in the F1 course there for me.
 
Great combo Kevin, I love this track 👍

Once again, using Kevins gears, came up with my 1st lot of splits.

Holy Velcro Batman! I had NO idea you could go that fast through some of those corners on the Ring :scared:

Cheers for the gears, EDK! And thanks to Twissy for the base-line setup. I also put the diff to my customary 5/10/5 and full DF. Might take a bit of rear wing out as the straight is loooooooooong...

There is still tons of time out there, but as there are so many splits I want to use this to compare my times :D

Using Gooner setup, thanks mate, and your splits are just embarassing :ill::sly:

Great track, great car. Nice pick Kev. :)

Added this to first post. Sorry for anyone who has run afoul of these so far on their fastest run, but we are 2 days in, We're you really not going to improve?


  • The exceptions on track surface are defined below -
The right Side Exit of the first chicane.



Nrburgring24h_16.jpg

Clean - Inbounds Pic, 2 tires to the left of the white line.


Nrburgring24h_17.jpg


Dirty - Out of Bounds Pic, 3 or 4 tires to the right of the white line. The start of this out of bounds area is the grass in the lower part of the pic, the end is the green painted tarmac that's just beyond the car.



The Below pics are from the first left in the double 90 degree left/right complex after the Schumacher Esses and before the final chicane and the exit onto the Nordschleiffe.

Nrburgring24h_18.jpg

On rumbles = Track (Clean)
Nrburgring24h-1.jpg

1 or 2 tires to the right of Rumbles = Off Track (Dirty)

I have been punching out times ever since Sunday (Australian time) hoping i get a division this week and can post my splits. Here's hoping that Vaxen gets chance to do the submissions. (Thanks in advance)

Love this combo.
 
Just out of curiosity, anybody here going to the MotoGP race at Laguna Seca this weekend?

Missed this one!

No, not going, but I'll be watching, like every race, online. Tell Vale to get the finger out!!!!!

Sadly, I need to catch up as I've missed a few races. I may read up on what's been happening recently before I get on the plane tomorrow.
