Seeing that video I need to use the rumble strips abit more I'm using more or less the same line but I'm being too clean I try to keep in the white lines as I don't want a disqualification.

Actually you don't. Andrew's approach is very aggressive but it is possible to take it smoothly without over-using the kerbs.

Another understeer fest... some of the admins must really hate me. 
Anyway, first posted splits:
24.250
49.700
I messed up the hairpin in T2 (odd since I usually like hairpins), and I've been struggling to match my T1 and T3 since.

What car are you driving.?Another understeer fest... some of the admins must really hate me.
I mean, there is some throttle on understeer, but I think that's to be expected, with 589 HP. The car rotates really nicely, and you can push it hard.
I guess you must've been thinking MR on Comfort tires for week 1, but that was never gonna happen.

FGT on comfort hards is what I was expecting. 👍What car are you driving.?

New splits:
24.216
49.483
Lost 0.1 in T3, though it was hard to match the previous lap.
Maybe it's because I've been playing iRacing a lot recently, which requires a completely different driving style.
I maintain that this car has understeer, at least at high speed. In the fast left at the beginning of T2, lifting off barely helps the car turn in at all.

Awesome combo, love the track. I'm looking at the times posted so far and wow, I have a lot to learn.

Yeah, you have to modulate in the sweepers. But it's a dream, otherwise, IMO. Thanks for explaining.

New splits, managed to find quite a bit of time after a few more laps. When and did a couple of seasonal events, had a beer, then went back to it and beat my best splits by over half a second each!!!! Still looks like i have a lot of time to make in the second sector though.

Exactly, ±0.0167 for everyone so hopefully that won't give any surprises at the lineYeah, but we're all using the same thing, so it should do fine for our purposes.
Anyway, my first splits:
24.400
49.500
(replays do this because of what I just mentioned)
Threw away a .22 T1 though so there's plenty more to be had!

Are you sure? I don't think those splits are even possible.

Is there any way I can re check the settings off my replay?
I'll give it a few more laps now, just in case

We're not going to offer to do this every week, but since it's the first event, you can send your zipped replay to me if you want to know what's wrong with it.
Those times are simply not possible.

That one's going to be tough to beat, PB's in every sector.

Maybe he was driving the reverse track
Great way to start things off with one of my favourite tracks... I drove here lots in GT3
Car's quite a challenge though, only on my best lap did I take the hairpin properly! Seems my splits aren't too bad for 10 laps though

Cheers mate, much appreciated. Can you PM me your email address, or would you prefer it uploaded somewhere and send you the link?

I'm pretty sure that if tyres are smoking, I'm losing grip & time but its still a lot of fun doing it though

There is a LOT of smoke coming of my tyres for these splits
