My first time trial advent and I'm struggling to get a half decent time, having to turn in early to compensate for the cars under-steer and hoping that I will come out the other side ok while making sure that I'm not too heavy on the gas haha.

Splits:
0:58.037
1:44.837
 
Found this from the WRS Week 145. @Twissy's winning lap. The cars are similar enough to make it relevant, though this one is faster.

If you don't know what to expect, it might shock you. Beware.

Did about 20mins and got this

T1: 56.000
T2: 1:41.734

You did only 20 minutes and you come up with that :crazy: Makes me pretty :nervous: After 20 minutes i had my first white (time) lap :lol:

And you @Mini Stiggy doing big mans lap time :lol:

@skyline1683 did only 5 minutes and had enough. Your splits are a pain in the ... :lol:
And thanks for the BB tip. I drove with 3/5 and switched. It seems to help altho i don't really feel any diffrence. I always start out with higher rear after the first lap with stock BB. I heard somebody say he uses higher front more lately and when i saw your BB i remembered what i heart.

Nice splits guys 👍


Slightly better splits but way way faster in T3 Saw a few 56.0xx in T1 and i know i can do 55. But it is so freaking hard to do. It is so easy to lose a lot of time in just one corner. And that first sector is so long. It has 1 corner more then whole Tsukuba. Then you have to do another Tsukuba :lol: (minus 1 corner)

Thanks ,I have 3 tracks I excel at spa,silverstone,Suzuka soon as I jump in any car I can instantly be quick on them it just so happens the the car in question I just do not like at all so I did 3 laps as quickly as I possibly could.

Just when you get a bit discouraged you go read the thread a bit get some ideas...thx guys.
 
Ended up last night with slower splits but a much better T3. When I went through T2 at 1'42.4 I got a bit excited and pansied my way through 130R and then slowed to what felt like a standstill through the chicane. Will post slightly slower splits tonight which equate to a overall lap that is 0.4 quicker than the 1'42.4 lap.

In summary, I went slower to go quicker, but still have around 3 or 4 tenths on the table over the two Tsukuba's!
 
Starting to resemble Tourist Trophy by now: no matter how well I do, I either topple the bike or crawl through the chicane. Threw away another sub 1:45.
 
Venting helped. My next attempt got point thirteen down at the line. Actually I think a lot of that was at Casio! Rear stepped out when exiting the earlier hairpin and the starting speed was low so I should come back, some time.

Just ended my first session of this Double Dutch Combo with A bite :D
Have to be very carefully on the throttle the tires screaming for grip all the way.
Tried TC on 1 but that din't feel good so back to TC 0 and just controlled my right foot :nervous:
Just 2 red laps in a string of 14 so not bad at all.
These splits are the result from this first half hour.
