I figured out turn 1 and Chicago today making me a lot faster and more consistent. I was braking later than I should at both. Unfortunately it was 20 mins before I had to leave for work so couldn't get a good lap in. With a good run and going off of splits I did today, I can take .150 off my posted time.

I won't be back on the track until Sunday night unfortunately.:nervous:
 
T1: 42.148
T2: 25.244

Horrible T3. Not had much free time this week but need to get some laps in this weekend... I have, like, an allergic reaction to understeer.
 
Hardley had time o far this week...but have managed to nible at my time:

T1: 42.690
T2: 25.470
 
Did another 1.5 hour session earlier and will be back for another session, sometime.

42.358
25.211


just did a 41.xxx T1 and an ok T2 but blew it on T3 :ouch: absolutely fuming
Yeah, that's the WRS for you!!
 
T1 41.973
T2 24.982

fairly happy with that for now, i'll have another go tomorrow
 
T1 42.195
T2 25.281

Absolutely gutted. Been running 25 flat T2s but ruined this one when i had a great t1 and awesome t3. getting the hang of it.... I reckon I've done 10 hours on this. Way more than any other week!
 
A little bit more improvement, finally made it into the '42s for T1- barely though.

42.965
25.493

Keep it up, DS, you carrying the D5 flag up in sub-sub-sub-alien territory this week!! 👍

Damn, some awesome times on this track being posted!
 
Bit late in starting this week and it looks like the worst week I could have done it on. D3 times are amazing. Feeling very slow and a bit drunk tonight but here's my splits.

T1: 42.246
T2: 25.115

Got a consistent T1 but struggling with T2. This was my best T2(felt lucky) but a poor T3. Hopefully more to come.
 
Those are great splits, Nizzy. Looking forward to what you post up sober.. ;)
 
Thanks Pyxen. That may take a few hours because |I'm still drinking. 12 pm in my part of the world. |Bedtime about 2 tonight maybe, hoping to go out for a run on my tuono tomorrow. Temperature meant to be about 18 centigrade. Woohoo. Then I will try to improve times.
 
I love the Tuono...*drool*

Had to 'settle' for a z750 (euro 'fighter' model, not the american faired one), which I think I'll take out tomorrow, as well :) Good to have priorities!
 
New splits

Always has to be one sector that is not up to scratch, been consistently getting 24s in T2, until I saw T1 out of the corner of my eye then got nervous :banghead:
 
:guilty: ignore me lol
T1: 43.045
T2: 25.720

Lemme guess, comfort softs? :)

I ran a few sessions with SRF on for my first GT5 WRS and posted better than representative splits so I know the feeling.

Maybe in 2012 PD will finally implement that oh-so-complicated SRF indicator?

When I watch a lap that's seconds faster than me, I honestly have no idea if they might have SRF on because the car seems much better-controlled than when I drive it.

Happy with my time at the line, beat it by over a tenth, want to get in the 41s again in T2 though

no, SFR was on, knew it was too good to be true :dunce:
 
This is my last effort. My brain is toast. :banghead: Did some overall improvement using 0/10 brakes.

T1: 42.747
T2: 25.543
 
New splits! Certainly not as fast as I wanted... But a great t3!

T1: 42.959
T2: 25.355

Looks like the best T3 will take it, RR!
