Funny, I said the very same thing after the last update, and yet...here I am

Started a bit late this week.

It has taken me a bit longer to get used to this car! the weird snap oversteer once pushed and learning the limits have proven tricky.
I assume the green tarmac on the exit of the right hander before T1 is not considered track? Even if we miss that cone?

Eitherway I've seen a 36.2 in T1 otherwise the rest of the lap I'm still working on.
Really struggling with the right hander after T1 and thus my sector time is poor here.

I have a busy weekend planned but hopefully I can get another session in before deadline. Id really like to see another .5 or so before I'm somewhat happy.

Correct, the white line rule applies

Nice improvement...

Think my problem is i expect people in the dailies and fia's to race like everyone in the wrs.

@Small_Fryz try shifting down a little later. It should help with the snap oversteer

 

[Bass Addict]

Nice improvement...

Indeed! 👍👍

 

[Argon]

Going backwards in some sectors but a healthy gain at the line

Done about 100 miles so far, this lap’s second and third sector were pretty big gains for me, it’s just a shame I made such a huge mess (roughly half a second of messy) of the chicane at the end of the lap.

 

[Tristan Jones]

So I put in 15 laps to get on the board, take a half second off previous best, and 0.2 from optimum. Look at the replay before posting, and found the replay bug before posting. I read during the Isle of Man car week that crashing during the first sector in the next lap causes this? Happened to me, even though I did go to end of sector 2 to make sure. So I do another few laps, and took a second of the big lap! Happy days. I could still go better here, 0.2 off optimum but another hour would get some betters times I'm sure.

Keep in mind the bollard (Not a cone, slim red plastic stick) that's in the final chicane, that has to be standing too.

I‘m not sure if I touched the slim red plastic stick in the final chicane, but it still stands. Is it green?

Last sector wasn’t a complete joke this time, can see maybe a couple of tenths in each sector now if I can get everything right. This car is still ridiculously fun, it just doesn’t have the damn near flawless grip and precision it once had.

 

[Argon]

We will need to review the replay. You can often goes right through the bollard and it remains standing but that will be a DQ

A nice improvement after two OL races yesterday along with coaching from @Argon Mike & @roamer2629 Javier...

I need to find another full second to be happy...

Credit has to go to Javier for all the tips Larry. I didn't really contribute much if at all.

You are too modest Mike... for me, it can be a single word that ignites the proverbial light blub. 💡

Great combo 👍 starting to enjoy gt again. Can't wait to race next Weds EU. I'll give it another go on Sun, with the goal of beating @Jfrod your getting faster and faster

BB 0

Edit:
Only 2 tenths off my current PB.

 

[shoenboggie]

Was a bit hesitant to spend the $350K when I only had $400K. Love this track so that helped pull me in. The car is really very good and can be balanced with the throttle. Time for 10 laps only to get on the board...

May have time for another run at this, busy weekend coming up.

Can't wait to race next Weds EU.

The EU online race was yesterday...sorry! We have moved the OLR to the current TT. One race left with the world wide race on Saturday...

Is it better to be in a low gear or high for this car? For example I shift up to third for left hander after the first hairpin. But maybe I’m a bit too throttle happy

Higher gear but I might be wrong
