This place was being used for the live event GT Academy time trials in 2016, so my friend and I went scouring the internet for videos to work out how to drive it ahead of the event here. Naturally when we rolled up to the event it was Brands Hatch instead and since then I'd forgotten everything about this layout lol.
But yes @Jump_Ace Pinball wizard would have been a much better name, because it is entirely accurate as to what's been going on lol. After 20 laps I didn't have one clean one and was pretty annoyed at the whole thing, however out at 50 or so and I've only done about 5 clean laps, but at least I can see the fun in this place, even if I'm just struggling to finish a lap!
My main problem is I have perfected the art of gently brushing the inside wall, notably in the last corner taking the perfect line as to hit the wall but still make the corner so that every lap I start is invalidated before I even start it... If the car was just 6 inches narrower I'd have completed about 15 more valid laps lol.
Everyone out there having a rough time with DQ'd laps, you are not alone; no man, woman, Division or sub rank is impervious to these walls, and as a collective we'll have removed several tonnes of paint off our cars in pursuit of "just a little bit more", and somehow, we still think it is worth it, and will come back for more.
