Yet to submit and i see the d3 podium certainty is now under considerable threat. Will be on in a few hours to lay that to rest I hope
See you soon on the track
 
So how much time did you exactly spend on those? :D

1,237 Kilometers. If you beat this time, you definitely earned/deserve the win. I put a lot of effort into this one due to no real aliens showing up. I was ready to quit about 4 tenths ago, then you showed up. It actually only took about 45 minutes to get those splits using Barons new tune. I had been running v1 up until last night. I'm off to bed.. We are both definitely getting negative handicaps. Good luck! 👍
 
Final splits for me.

42.455
1'25.621

A little disappointed to leave at least half a second out there but frustration was kicking in to it's time to stop.

Forgot to that Cats PJs and Mr Safeway for sharing tunes. I used Mr Safeway's tranny and the rest from Cats PJs.
 
I have had very limited time with this. Using Baron's tune (final adjusted up to 2.750) and for the first time, ABS at 1 because it is impossible to not lock up racing brakes on non-racing cars with ABS 0....

42.417
1:26.234

Think I'll try Lucas' transmission settings next.

Why do you go for no ABS steve? Just curious...

Call me a (ex-)purist :lol:. Seriously, I've learned how to modulate the G27 brake pedal so I don't really lock up the brakes on too many cars. Racing brakes in GT6 seem to be a bit too strong for the average car (or the Academy version of the GT-R), however.

The last time we had a tuning week, at Bathurst, I kept the stock brakes on. That isn't an option this time.

Lucas' transmission settings allow me to shift a bit less than the modified version of Barron's transmission settings. Fifth seems a touch too tall because I am slightly later (yet faster) at the end of the front straight. Fresh splits (may well submit this one)...

(Remove duplicate post - somehow was still saved in the drafts)
 
Was away over the weekend.. and left my glasses in another county..:banghead:.. so have been struggling to see the barriers around this course.. and don't have good splits.. hopefully I will have my glasses back before next weeks TT submission deadline..

Last splits for this, trying to stay of the bottom of div3.

Dont worry, I can be up to it. Your photo with the megane and the leaves flying always strike my attention. Great pic:tup:
Were are those guys of Div4? General defection, since @Mark_S, the one remaining is faster than me and will be promoted soon and stop winning cups :D
Anyhow I saw an improvment

Wow, I've done something around 700. I was hoping to take the win, but now I really doubt I can go faster than you, mate. You know, a certain possibility is there combining my best sector times, but it's another thing if i can do it... I can do around 1 hour today, no more time due to school, so if I can't make it, big congrats for that outstanding time :bowdown: I'd also be happy to take 2nd :)
 
Submitted and accepted with splits on the board happy as it's first TT in a few weeks and with a pretty much stock tune .
 
Gave this one last try. Last, wild, desperate setup alternatives. No results.
Took Tokyo-London all-nighter

A couple tenths left yet.

Also, some changes to the tune.

Ballast - 5
lsd 10/20/15
AR Bars 3/4
Toe 0.00/-0.05

Everything else the same.

How can you have ballast -5?? Makes 1 more PP??

I thought 507 max was the rule?
 
After my last session I could not do any better than 0.005 slower than my ghost... Submitting with these, good luck to all, who are still running.

Earlier in the week Lucas said it was OK if it went over do to ballast, and Fetchy seems to agree.
