Nice improvement Ned 👍

So any Division 3 guys gonna show up for the race today, or you are gonna leave Johan (Roesza) and me alone to face the alien mothership? TTs are great but the race is an adrenaline rush my friends...

Until now you are on your own Javier. Just drove 1 TT session before thursday's horrifying event and could not yet get motivated to drive. My thoughts are elsewhere on the moment but maybe I will do the race nut thats depending on the news.

Ugh, I keep frogetting that we have people from all parts of the world. I hope you didn't lose anyone.

As far as the online race participation: I can recommend it to everybody. It's great fun and anything can happen. It's great way to learn the track and which lines are the fastest. It also helped me to calm my nerves for running the TT. I don't freak out as much when I see good sector time.

Those were terrible news. I'm very sorry that it has affected you, hope not directly. Let me send you my best, and if there is anything we can do to help you johan, I would be happy to do so as most people around here 👍

I agree. Would like to make more of these going forward.

Any tips for T2? Or just got the perfect line through there?

Nothing extraordinary about what I did.. more or less got lucky. 78 mph through most of turn 4, turn 5, hit the brakes a little before the 2 marker and as soon as I shifted to 3rd, flung it in the corner. At the apex, i was flickering between 65-66 mph and floored it out

Nice splits Brandon!

Am back from watching Tiger, Rory and Bubba! Time for some WRS a bit later when it's cooled off

Rory's to lose at this point, it would take a pretty bad collapse for him not to win tomorrow.

Yeah, but we'll see. I've seen enough 6 shot leads overhauled in the last 15 years to not count out the guys within 10 shots just yet

So, is 3/5 still the daddy of BB on this one? About to jump in.

Yep Nick Faldo won a Master's because of an epic Norman collapse. I was a big Norman fan then, it was really hard for me to watch.

4/6 for my splits

Tiny fraction gone in turn 5, but only a tiny fraction. This may be it, but since I want to get on the podium here, it probably will never be it til the very end

 

[LLOYDZELITE69]

Did an hour so far and got a

T1: 27:533
T2: 53.266
T3: 1:14.600

 

[Doodle]

Also did an hour, but got these.

27.700
53.433
1:14.683

My first sector is just awful, my sector two is ok, but my T3 and T4 are incredible.

Thanks for letting me know, and thanks to @mcsqueegy for making the vid.

Ok

I think the best I could do would be a 1:14.9xx.

 

[LLOYDZELITE69]

A T1: 27.489... Right in the trash.

Ouch


Each split is a bit slower, but I had a good last sector:
27.800
53.650
1:15.200

 

[mcsqueegy]

That's enough from you

A T1: 27.489... Right in the trash.

If it makes you feel better, i threw away a .431 T1 and a 52.99 T2... By simply forgetting to brake afterwards

 

[EDK]

Ouch

You forgot the 1: at the start of your last split, I am deleting your times from the board and you will need to post again.

 

[Mini Stiggy]

Whoops.
