[StigsTC]

Dang I nailed the first split to @mcsqueegy level and the instantly forgot what I'd done and can't get close again.

What's with the potty mouth?

I think it's the delightful GT collision sound effects when it rolls over (again), Kevin. Ever so soothing, what... 👍

Btw what brake balance are you guys running? I started out with 5/5 then tried 2/8 then 0/10 and then came back to 1/10 just to have something happening at the front when steering in.

 

[StigsTC]

@GTP_Dutchy I was running 2/6, then 3/7 then 4/7 and yeah it all made no difference.
Ran with no ABS to tweak it and found I was only just starting to lock up on 7/7.
I've improved my splits but not finished a better lap so maybe I should go back to 2/6 or 3/7.

[mcsqueegy]

Ran some laps after a lengthy practise with @suprajef and found some improvement pretty quickly:

14.973
30.818

Had a slightly faster one just after that but clipped the wall exiting the final corner looking for another tenth so far!

And have some bright green Integra as distraction!

Just run a few laps with S1 on both ends, then it will feel like the car turns when you change back.

I was actually surprised by how easy it was on turn in compared to the car without staggered tired. We used it at AH and it was so wide it was bearable, but I think it would have been tough without it at London

I think I might become an idiot by asking this but what do you mean with S1?

I could have it backwards but I thinks it is sport hard=S1 medium=S2 etc...

 

[Mr P]

I tried BB at default 5/5 and changed to 10/10 due to the poor brakes, not much difference really... gonna try 1/10 and 0/0 next time I run this and see which is best

Great splits being posted 👍

Is the step at the bottom of the barrier legal if you don't actually mount it?
Probably better to just stay away from it

 

[GTP_Dutchy]

what i can see from those pics it looks clean to me

Invisible walls can be tricky, need to listen and look at logger on one like that.

Sports Hard tires.

I couldn't freeze it in the right place but there is some contact with the tyre wall and vertical face of the kerb, it made a noise in the headphones on contact when I was checking the replay.
Not to worry, cheers anyhow. 👍

Next best lap with me getting turn 1 wrong

Had to throw out my last lap/splits because these were better.

First splits, lap seemed fast but splits say otherwise

Not a big fan of the FWD,but with this tire combo its nice.
As usual I'll propably end up with slower splits because the last sector will be the judge (again ) this week.

Rolled the car a couple of times but you simply have to for exploring the limits
So..keep on rolin' guys

 

[Thematic]

Yeah I had two (uncharacteristic) in-laps, and rolled the thing on lap 3.

Up 0.2 at the line. That's about my limit as it stands but I'll give it another couple of goes at the weekend if I get a chance. Getting the hang of not rolling it but still 1 in 5 ends up on the roof. The trick is to hit pause and restart before it lands again.

 

[miata13B]

Man another week I will not be able to post a time :-(. I ran a few laps, absolutely love this combo. Things came up this week and it is happening really fast. I am going to have 0 seat time at this point for this combo. Sorry guys, I promise next week I will be running.

If anyone is interested, I got offered a seat for this weekend's LeMons race at Thompsonville, Ct. Can't pass this one up at all. Going to cost me an arm and a leg, but hey you only can crash once ;-).

Hi,

First FF ride since I started with timetrails. Seems to be a bit easier for me to improve over the week.

D.

 

[GTP_Dutchy]

Slowly but surely crawling to where I want to be. at least found .6 at the line.

This may be it for me this week, I've never really liked this track and just kept going because I could see a lot of time. Ah, who am I kidding, I'll probably do at least one more session before the deadline regardless.

 

[tarnheld]

Finally found some time to do a WRS TT again. Lovely combo! 👍 Still figuring out turn 1 (and the turns that follow...).

BB 6/6

15.300

[deaconblues82]

Still 4 tenths in the last sector, so now it's just a matter of putting my best three together. Wait, that's the whole point of this isn't it? Nevermind...
Just so many walls.

[Thematic]

Slightly better than in 2014.
