Well played Jon. :cheers: Not sure I'll have time to get another run at it, and my T3 is only meh.

Thanks Lucas, but my T3 was likely worse than yours :lol:

Went back to it and ran this lap. Ragged as all hell with a dab of oppo going into the first chicane and then missed the apex at Parabolica. However, it's a PB in the second and third sectors and maybe 0.07 off my best in T1. Think I'm submitting with this
27.458
1'01.208

:cheers:
 
Thanks guys for all the input about my worn out G27 issue, I still haven't decided on a new wheel, but your input is very helpful. 👍

I've been trying to adapt to my old DFGT, I'm starting to get a feel for those pedals, maybe I need the foam ball mod. Is there a way to use my G27 pedals with the DFGT?

Anyways, I'm still trying to improve my lap time. I've made much better sector times, but have yet to put a better lap together.

Try this --> video 👍
 
I prefer my brittle 5yr-old DFGT pedals "stock", ie, none of this foam ball business. :mischievous:

I finally coaxed them into giving me the lap I wanted, with a PB in the final sector. :)

27.450
1'01.150

T1 is still a mystery to me, only went 1 tenth faster through there, only a handful of times.

See you somewhere near the line, @Carlos Fandango and @Deton. :cheers:
 
I'm going to give this a good go today. I feel like I'm losing most of my time in Sector 1, just can't get the ultimate braking zones for the chicanes.
 
I will travel from Monza to Rome now. Unfortunately I don't have much time during the next week and the next weekend is completely off :(

Nice. That lap matches my very best to T2. If you've hit a PB in T3 as well, then you're probably one to two tenths up on me at the line. Good job mate 👍
 
I have been quite busy recently, and haven't had much time to run the TT's the last few weeks. But Monza has always been a good place for me.. and.. well.. its a Ferrari!

Opening splits for me, a tenth left in both T1 + T2. T3 isn't ideal either, but hey. Still a few hours left.

Gave this a bash for an hour this morning and just can't get anywhere near my best time! No idea what I did last weekend now...

Will be submitting later and moving onto Week 3 now! :)
 

The WRS formula at work :) Apart from a couple of outliers, the distribution seems to be working.

I'd like to add something for the folks in D4: you are doing very well! I have two friends that are practicing to get to YOUR level as neither would be on the chart... And a big 👍 to anybody submitting a time by driving with a DS3, you guys are my heroes. I couldn't do a lap with this combo on a DS3 :scared:
 
Frustrated as hell right now my best laps on this TT are all corrupted ,try to view them and ps3 crashes but I can load them and use it as my ghost replay in TT mode any suggestions would be really appreciated .
 
Guys a question here
k1lh.jpg


now there are 3 parts in that corner

the red and white rumbles
the green rumbles
then the green concrete part

is it legal to have 1 tyre just slightly not in contact with the red and white but well within the green rumble(not the green concrete)
 
First 5 laps and i'm still way back on time

28.722
1'04.422

This must be down by a second at least.
 
I bettered my time at the line.

27.433
1'02.133

Almost a quarter of a second off my previous best at the second split. I am struggling a lot with the Lesmos. My previous ghosts slide quite a lot through both Lesmos. Since the break early - keep it nice and tidy through the corner - quick exit out on the straight - approach seems to be the way to go, I have been trying to get rid of the sliding in order to get a better exit onto the straight. This is extremely hard though, as I have to brake earlier than my ghost which leaves me behind, and even though I keep a nice line I am still way behind my ghost out on the straight, as I have to accelerate from a much lower speed. Really frustrating, especially as I can't really seem to improve. Also knowing that with my personal best 2nd sector I should be able to get my lap time down 0.4s.

Another problem is the braking point for Ascari, where I can't seem to find a suitable reference point.

Today I tried going down to 1st gear in the first chicane. My fastest lap this far was done this way, but I think I have done just as quick first sectors while staying in 2nd.
 
Literally spent 15 minutes on this yesterday, now I spend nearly two hours and can't get close to it. So frustrating.
 
Thanks for the answer :cheers:

Submitted Entry, not happy at all :grumpy:

Man, I just took a peek to your splits on the board, and they're really good! You're also the fastest 2nd division driver, you should be happy. ;)

I don't know what exactly you are trying to get close to, but according to the leaderboard you are much closer to it than I have ever been :D And I feel like except the second sector, going any faster is not possible!

Thanks Deton, I've submitted with slightly slower ssplits but it's a shame I could not string together my best sectors, also had a lap one whole tenth faster but one tyre was about one centimeter away from the rumbles :banghead:

But must say this week has been fun and good luck to all.
 
27.516
1'02.066

Slight improvement at the line, with a bad 1st sector and a little improvement in the 2nd sector. Had to carefully inspect my line out of 2nd Lesmo. Reeeally tight but both inner wheels manage to get slightly onto the white line by the time the red-white kerbing ends and the green concrete starts. Über close though.
