Funny thing. Just did a couple of laps and every time i pas T3 and see a time (what time isn't import can be any time for everybody, it's the feeling you have with it). I think, 4 days ago i would be mind-blowing if i did that time. Now i'm not happy with it :lol:
 
Everytime I approach T3 and Im ahead of my ghost I look up to see what time it is, even though I tell myself not to look. If its a good time I tell myself "you better not 🤬 up that last sector" a few times I have totally messed it up sliding all over the place.
 
Any one going flat-out in the 2nd to last corner of T2?

And that last corner of T2, only a lift or a tap on the brakes?

I've done thad second to last corner in T2 flat once or twice but I binned those laps in T3. Quite a few laps with good splits were wasted because of a very poor sector 3. The last corner I don't lift, I just use the right amount of part throttle l. Thanks for sharing the setup, jimi 👍

21.500
1'09.900
1'45.266

Sector 4 was a bit conservative. There's maybe 2 tenths still in it but I don't know if I'll ever put the lap together, its it's so tricky.
 
@jimipitbull's tune allowed me to approach the 1:48.x club. 👍

22.000
1:12.000
1:49.083

Lost 2/10ths in S4, but it's still my best.

Fetchy accepted the time; now to see if I can improve at Daytona (and Apricot Hill) any.

Tough week when you have to be D1 (or from Australia :)) to be in the 1 second club! I know it's sort of normal with nearly 2 minute splits, but still... makes me feel like I could never be D1 (not that I ever did!).

I've been trying to improve tonight, but couldn't do it, I guess I'm done. Submitted and accepted, good luck everybody.

When i started in d3 a year ago i never thought I'd be in d1, but I'm here now. What i did was pick a consistently fast person a division above me and work on beating them. Then, when i got to where i could beat them, i moved on to the next. Little steps turn into a leap from where you started. Keep at it and always push yourself to improve. You will.
 
Thanks Brandon. I feel like I improved a lot starting a few months before the end of GT5, something just clicked, I guess. But I also feel like I've hit a plateau with no end in sight, like I've reached the end of my skills and talent. Maybe one day there'll be another click, who knows...

We just got 3 school lessons cancelled, so I went home to do a bit running again; I got these after half an hour :)

21.750
1'10.633
1'46.033

T3 is getting better, now I have to work on my T1 and T2 :)
 
Not had much time this week.. So slow in sector 2.. may try the magical tune..

22.267
1'12.717
1'.49.950
 
Submitted with last time posted (might try a late run after work). I really enjoyed this TT, as it was the first time I ran this track in a serious way. There are so many places to make or break a lap. Hoping my T4 is fast enough to maybe get a D2 podium. If not, my final time is so much better than I ever imagined possible. Now to Daytona and try to ace one of the hardest turns in GT6, the Bus Stop.
