6/4 BB

Took my ps away with me this week managed to get a couple of hours in off-line and set this. Determined to improve and break my slow streak lately today.

One of the challenges here may be to keep going even if you're on a bad lap. Last session, I kept redoing sector 1 and that got me a meager 5 hundredths by chance, and not much of a clue as to the other sectors. Your mileage may vary, of course.
 
Had a break and on return couldnt get anywhere near my lap, got too much oversteer and was really slow out of left hander before fast chicane and watched the ghost car drive through me and pull away, made it to t2 four three and half tenths down. Decided to abandon the lap by seeing how far I could make it through the final sector flat out(ish) before I hit anything, gained three tenths at the line (several attempts later its still a mystery how I managed it :confused: )

Join the club. Remarkably similar reds and blues!

ALWAYS finish the lap. Just finish the lap. Hot lapping is all about consistency, and determination. Finish the lap, then run the next lap. And one of them will be fast. 👍

It must've been the beer. ;)

Very likely at one time but I have not had a "drink" in over 10 years.

A better guess would be my medications and its a good that the WRS does not test for PED's :lol:

I agree. 👍

I always finish a lap even at the super long tracks like the Nurburgring . I will abort & restart when ahead of my ghost because it was dirty or major crashes where I'm off track or facing the wrong direction.

Dit it again, had a poor chicane this time, got to the 'chute' and turned the ghost off, avoided running over any curbs through the barriers and practically threw onto the main straight and gained another tenth

Today and tommorow to find a missing tenth in T1 and two tenths in T2 (still running bb 5/5)

Well, here it is. Left about .2 in the first two sectors and at least .15 in t3. Thought about not submitting just due to extreme frustration, but decided to grit my teeth and hit the submit button. Good luck everyone.

I did really enjoy this one, though it may be hard to tell from the first half of my post.:)👍

I feel you on the frustration part, hard to get a good lap in with all 3 good sectors
