Are you braking at the curbs on the right? I usually have to trail brake to keep from going too wide.

@RuddRacer or @GTP_Patrick1 may can tell you something I am not thinking?

I do start braking at the apex or slightly before of the curb of the right. It is a fine line sometimes it is better to be a little hot and feather the throttle until full gas. You should swing almost to track's edge when hitting the gas, makes the bump a bit more out of control.

Pretty much what @GTP_Patrick1 said for me except I'm probably doing it wrong but I downshift into 3rd for turn 5 but accelerate out in 4th. I don't think the gear is as important as getting the line correct.

Short session with some improvements...

PS: I did get that right that absolutely no tuning, including suspension and everything else, is allowed, correct?

You did and everything in your race HUD is allowed 👍
 
So top tip. Drive a Gr1 car on the Dragon Trail daily, then jump into this.

Feels like you have so much time! I've just smoothened it all out and knocked another 5.5 tenths off my time, blown my target lap time and went under 26s in the second sector, none of which I thought I'd do. Best 10 laps I've done on the game. Delighted.

Had a quick 100 mile blast this morning before work In an attempt to beat my time & get better splits, but it turns out I’ve forgotten how to drive overnight & couldn’t even get near my fastest lap ghost :odd:

Hopefully I’ll have more luck before work tomorrow or else I’m just going to have to stick with my last submission.
 
This event inspired me to try the Vette in daily race C at Lake Maggiore on Thursday, and the daily race B on Friday with the Evo Gr. B road car at the Willow. Both with pretty good results, currently less than 5k points away from DR A. :dopey:

It took longer than expected to get back into the rhythm, but after more than 100km took another small step, pretty close now to my next target. I've done S1 several tenths faster, but still struggling to do well in both S1 & S2 in a single lap.

You will be placed in a division for GT Sport after 3 verified submissions.

GT6 was good and bad. We knew what we were getting, but it was admittedly onerous.
Is verifying a replay the same as before?

No.

Once the deadline passes, there is a "Share" feature in the game. It's just a load option in the replay gallery, and we "Tag" the replay as we share it with GTPWRS011, for example. That is what it will be this week, but the last 3 digits are the week number.

Still a small amount of complexity, but no export and upload from PC, and watching replays is now a breeze.
 
Finally found the time.....

Good to be back.

Another session without improving my best lap. Shaved .1 from my best S2 though. My optimal lap is only .150 away. Could this really be a day 1 best lap I can't beat?

I am in the same boat. My best lap was Tuesday I think. I have had better splits, can not put them together. I am thinking that lap will likely be my best. I have not got with in .1 of that time.
