I'll go walk downtown Seattle in search of a tagged millross if you can tell me how the hell to break 20.7 in T2.It's only 2 turns!
Its only 1 turn!
Ive worked out a good way to spot the exit, which means bad news as you'll all beat me
- judt after seeing the sector 1 split, lift entirely, watch the speed and hold 103 or 104 tight to the inside and accelerate hard....keep going until.....when you see the crowd end on the left side of the screen, stood behind the armco, lift to about 106, then down again. 6s are fairly common and the occasional 5 if both bits are right. 130mph right at the jump apex. I can get it right a lot more often now with my genius crowd method 👍

I thought "your favorite turn" was in T2 as well...
I love it when we get down to details and start talking minimum corner speeds. Thanks for the tips, and I'll promise not to beat you. :fingerscrossedbehindback:
EDIT: I'm wrong / you're right...T2 is just the loop, with T3 starting at the jump.
I just looked at a replay I'd forgotten about, due to its bad T3, but it was looking pretty good: 39.127 20.680, but not as fast as my posted lap. At least I now know that I can break 20.7!

Well played Baron! 
Matt your trick for spotting the exit of the loop got me thinking...I'm using the tip of the mountain in the background. When it disappears behind the armco, I downshift to 4th with just a tiny throttle lift, and turn-in. Finally figured that darn loop out!

T3 was average.
Nic, that's a common problem with those parts, and usually the car needs some suspension adjustments after installing them. I have no idea what to change to fix it,
I just never install them.

Thanks Gravitron. It was the should I or should I not that I was looking for. From now 'Not' ! it's screwed my car up and I do t have the time to run another in or the skills to fix the problem ;-) but I will fiddle around and see :-) cheers

Feels like everyone got quicker and now I can't keep up. Have had a .30 in T1 but I don't know where to find the rest of it.
Amazing splits in D2

Found a good chunk of time on the track. Not sure if my splits are quicker, not that it matters that much. Hit my goal for the week as well. Probably still some time on the track I can find. At least I can say I've finally figured out that final complex before the start/finish that has always been my weakness.

A little slower on the board but gained .08 on the lap. Starting to get some .9xx in t1 so hopefully I can get another tenth or so.
Tried Lucas' tranny and its quite nice, just adjusted it a smidgen.

Found improvment on first sectors, but it wasn't my best T3. Probably submit with these splits.

Quite close to giving up....can barely break 39.3 in T1 and I don't know why and it's getting really frustrating. Rest of the lap is fab, set some amazing T3 PBs but still slower overall.
Will have one more session, just hit 500 miles.
Amazing splits Baron. I'll try your setup, but I think it ability that's counting against me here
