Submitted my lap time because I'm not going to be able to submit mine either tomorrow or on Monday. I'm also not going to be able to see my results until later next week, but since you guys keep the results up for a little while, I'll catch them before the next set comes out.
 
Managed a few more laps, new splits
41.923
1.25.440

edit :using @Cat_Pjs tune as a base tune, so thanks for that. Those splits top of d3! was not expecting that, still feels like there's a lot of time out there especially in s2. Looking forward to Monaco GP, and week 19s new TT to have an early sighter maybe

Slow T1, but better T2 and T3.

I was always in front of my ghost after that lap, until I reached the double apex right hander after the fast S. Somehow I always throw the car way to agressive into that corner and the back becomes uncontrollable.
If I can find a save and fast way through that turn, I may be able to shove 2-3 tenths off my current time 👍
 
It does seem a little quieter on here in the last few weeks... Anyone else notice or feel that? Numbers on participation are way down from what week1 was up over 150. Is everyone concentrating on gt academy at the moment? I see the participants in Div 4 are far lower however than they once were.
Come on guy's Let's see a stacked leaderboard again
:cheers::cheers:
No improvement on lap but had a lap 4 tenths quicker at split 2,only to clip the wall on the exit Of last corner
:banghead::banghead:

Yeah I was waiting for the new tt last night but it never came, usually it's released pretty soon after GMT hits midnight on the Sunday
Oh well, we wait in heightened anticipation then
 
New splits
42.130
1'25.180

Don't know if can give this another try, submitted and accepted. Maybe banzai tomorrow...

Being a holiday weekend, it might not show up for a few more hours. There have been instances in the past where the new combo isn't posted until after Sunday due to various circumstances.

Edit: Ignore this post. 💡

Can't get into the 3's :/
You're scaring me, mate. You are posting new splits all the way, so how fast can you be in T3?
I got some new ones for today, but it's only with a tiny gain at the line, I HAVE to work on my T3...

41.134
1'23.317

Last session tomorrow. :)

Well, I'm a little over 2 tenths off my theoretical best, counting that freakish T1 I had earlier today.. other than that, I smashed my theoretical best I had 2 days ago. ;) but you'll have me at the line. No way I'm a tenth faster than you in T3. I'm pretty much done, I submitted my lap and don't have plans on really improving. Good luck tomorrow. 👍
 
I am familiar with this track, forward and r. Yet...

I had done over 300 km of this today, and a much too clear pattern emerged: I'd destroy the ghost in the long first sector, with upto 7 tenths gain, but manage to squander it in the usual ways during the rest of the lap.

So I come up with T1 that is likely my pb, with the blue digits of -0.885. And I think again the pattern shows, a 115 ms gain at the line.
(yeah well, ***'s new to me to this degree)

42.983
1'27.533
 
Nailed Sectors 1 and 3 for the most part, middle one wasn't the best but if this is my final submission I'm satisfied for now:

41.510
1'24.843

Had a couple of close calls and thought I'd post pictures below:

I'm confident it's clean...these streets feel narrow when you're at pace though that's for sure :scared:

I never understand how people take such clear and nice pictures. Mine always come out blurry and terrible
 
I am soooo done with this combo. Frustrating that I cannot improve on my time. = time to move on to #129 in a row....

Very frustrating... after a very long session, only gained 0,085s at the line.

42,083
1'25,100

I've been ahead of my ghost so many times... I probably beat all 3 of my best sector times by huge amounts, yet was never able to put a decent lap together. I don't think I've ever left so much time on the track that was so easy to grab... Hopefully, I'll have some more time tomorrow before deadline.

EDIT: oh, and forgot to say that at some point, out of nowhere, I saw a 41,550 T1, no idea how that happened...
