Wow what a car! Really suits this high speed thread the needle type stuff. Plus i love a car that's all front end! Really can turn this thing on the throttle.

60 miles flew by:

24.138
20.189
17.539

Funny but oh so true! .. Unfortunately I suffer from the same problem and think this is why my T1 is so slow.

I reckon the gallop from a good end section can set you up for a mid 23 T1 but I always restart the lap when I mess up and most of my saves are lap 1 attempts

Every clean lap I have made has ended with me completely missing the turning point on turn one & plowing into the barrier, luckily so far it hasn’t caused fade out on my replays

First efforts,

Best sector 1 but seen 3 tenths better in sector 2. Hard to string them all together with such fine margins! Love this car so much though.

I am starting to reduce the "Invalidate Lap" laps and the sea of red on the right hand side of the TV...

Damn your flying mate.. Well Done! 👍

Thanks! I am feeling dizzy up here, lol.

I just switched the time of day to "Twilight 18:00 Clear" and turned on the "Blue Driving Markers" and the walls seemed to disappear and I just focused on the glowing blue markers... (Note: I am in a dark room as well)

[Mr P]

This combo is a great challenge and quite addictive...

23.808
19.569
17.690

Nerves got the better of me from T2 and lost speed at the end yet still beat my old time

I'll be back 👍

Time for another round at this... before I go, here are my latest times:

24.393
20.417
17.601

That first corner always gets me. Im trying to get that final sector right so i could get a good run at sector 1.

Here is the livery i put together last night:

When you're frustrated because you keep hitting the wall, then suddenly manage a lap which is half a second faster than you've been before. Then you decide to take it easy on the next lap and somehow end up going faster all over again.

24.683
20.202
17.823

 

[Ph1sh]

I think I like this combo more than the previous Tokyo combo. Such a fun ride. Might be done with this combo. Cleaned up my lap a bit. Still some time left.

Running 45:55 Torque, BB at +2.

Brake early but don't brake too much, Throttle on

I’m slowly starting to get the hang of this now, thanks for the tips @Argon

I managed 3 consecutive clean laps. Then the universe imploded in surprise!

 

[Tristan Jones]

So hard to get clean laps that are competitive! Haven't got.much racing in this week, first hit was 5 laps, this was 2 clean laps out of 15

26.132
21.796
18.409

And my optimum is 3 seconds better at the line...but I think that counts dud lap sectors

 

[Mr P]

Started having the pedals issue last night and by the end of the nights session the throttle wont go past 80% throttle and stutters terribly.. normal I'd say I'm done and will submit what I have but... I like this one and need to go back

Now where's my screwdriver? last time I had this the pedals had filled with black dog hairs and he was banned from my room... recently he has managed to sneak back in again due to the wife mollycoddling him 👎

I was finally able to put together a clean lap...... this track flares up my claustrophobia. I have a T150 wheel but for some reason this is the only game that just doesn't feel right with my wheel so my time is with a controller.

Edit:
Just found a bigger set of attachments and went a little faster.

You'll need to post those improved splits in a new post. We don't mind duplicate or even triple posts here 👍

No problem, I was afraid to make a duplicate post. Thank you for the heads up.

Don't be afraid, I have seen triple post on here all in all row, some people post there splits as they do them, some wait til the end of the session, both ways are correct. 👍

 

[HAD2]

Just like the other we had not long ago never drove this inner loop neither but did my first hour and finally some progress is made, now it’s just getting these corners at the right speed 👍 I’ll try do some more laps before the deadline definitely this week but I may be hooked into going fishing again all weekend if the weather is nice

This is just the start

[Mr P]

Damn! ... I just took my pedals apart and gave them a good clean out, 30 mins later and everything nice and clean and put back together and I decided to let the wife test it and it's doing it still the same with the throttle hitting 80% and stuttering losing lots of speed it's terrible..

Anyone else with this issue? is it the car as I remember similar when I had the issue the last time? seemed like it was certain cars? sorry if i'm babbling on here! anyone else having throttle stuttering issues on this car?
Thanks in advance 👍

Might be worth letting folks know what wheel + pedals you're using Ron

Sorry mate I'm using G29 with default standard pedals.. it's definitely not car specific thing like I suggested earlier as Kel picked a car at random and loaded the M4 on the same track and it's even worse 👎

Will submit what I have for this round and look into getting some replacement pedals asap as I can't race with that BS... what a bummer 👎

Might want to take a look at this Ron -> https://steamcommunity.com/app/227300/discussions/0/617336568061932324

Not sure if it applies to G29
