Slightly slower splits but .25 off at the line. That last sector will bow before me! :D
Now to tie it all together. Need coffee. Vibratey fingers helps!

Loving this combo! Somewhat less finesse needed than last week, more spherical objects to the upright surface!

Lost .2 in the 2nd sector but took it back in the 3rd and made .2 at the line 👍

I expect when the real fast guys have a go at this.. we will see splits around 26.0 / 18.1 / 27.0 making a very low 1'11 at T3.. that's how much I reckon is still up for grabs here! but way out of my league unfortunately! I'll be happy to scrape another .2 👍

Good luck guys :cheers:

Slow down old man! :lol: Sick T3, I've only seen a few .6's, most laps are ~.8-.9 👍

Interested to see what the aliens can do as well, I feel like there's unlimited time to gain through the chicanes with big enough cojones.
 
First things first,
very nice track/car combination,love the tire choice.👍

Today's session:

26.951
18.770
28.143

T1 is a mystery for me,T2 and T3 are ok.

Yesterdays session had such embarrassment T times for me .
I even "forgot" to post them,only thoughts were,.....Houston ,we've a problem! :nervous:

Week is still young and a I am afraid (waves to the family) it will be a daily return to the track.:)
 
First session got me these.

26.565
18.845
28.318

BB +2
45/55

It's weird to handle a car that understeers and oversteers whenever it wants to.

Second session had better splits in every sector but all in different laps so just adding those to my best splits chart. :sly:

Not a great improvement timewise, but my driving was just all over the place on every lap I did. Decided to fiddle around with the car settings and now it feels more stable in my hands, though.

Brakes -2
TC 0
50:50

I know, right. It means your braking points are dictated by predicting how the car will react 200yds down the road after its finished yawing and shimmying before you can get on the power. I've done more duff laps than clean ones in this. Frustrating when you have 2 or 3 great sectors, only to end up in the fruit bowl on the last chicane because it decided to shake it's tush into the nearest immovable object.

Adjusted BB from -1 to +1.
Adjusted TS from 45:55 to 50:50.

Pretty happy with my lap all corners great except for the last one.

Today I seem to struggling with it I can't decide to drop to 2nd or 3rd gear, hug the kerbing or go in a little wide..?

altered 50:50 and 45:55 torque, BB1 TC0
Improvement, yet there is still some time on the track (due to cone brake in last sector :D )

saw .3, .1 and .2 faster splits during tonights session, but need a break to glue them together later.

Horrible lap time (so far), this one won't help me to get D2 division. ^^

No traction control and didn't mess with the brake balance or torque split. On sports softs the car is quite slippery but traction control felt too restrictive for me.

That said it's fun to slide the car around. Probably will try with 50/50 torque split later.
 
Oh my, lots to learn again I see... gotta get back into shape!!!! First splits after mainly sliding around for a few laps LOL (which was fun though!!!):

Strong stuff performed by many here! Hope to be back myself soon with a proper update on this.
All setting currently still stock, will start playing around once I get things semi-under-control.
