I have just checked my replays and seen this critical situation. The front tire just barely touches the inner edge of the curb. That would be just legal, right?

If this is good, I'm done. 2 tenths better than my fastest results. It looks like the tire is on the very outer most part of the tarmac. I can't tell though and I can't work this stupid camera in this game

Use the walk around feature and get to the front or back of the car, in line with the wheel as opposed to this view.

I can't make a ruling on that pic as it stands.

Yes, but would prefer folks submit something that's cleaner and easier to verify than that.

And remember, even if I tell you here that one pic is clean, It it happens to be that is not the furthest off point, then you could stil have an off/DQ in that corner.
 
@EDK how this. Definitely some fine lines on what's considered tarmac lol

That appears to be close but clean.

With the replay share feature, do you know if you are able to share with individual users?

Or are the only options friends or public?

If you can share with individuals, share it with me and I will look at it.

I have no idea. Let me check. I'm having psn issues right now. Says I'm not connected and won't shows any friends online but wireless on every other device works.

Edit only to friends.

No you can't share privately, just friends or public :grumpy:

I just hate telling you here that I think it's clean, only for us to find out when we can look at a replay and do frame by frame that it's not.

I know you are trying to get a lap back after the whole exiting after running your lap debacle, but it might be better for you to find something that's not quite so on the edge.

That was phish that lost a lap. I know how things are ran here and I wouldn't submit a dirty lap. I'll go through it frame by frame and if I think it's clean and I can't improve, I'll submit it. But, we still have a few more days and I've ran a faster lap but knicked a cone, so hopefully it won't come to this one.
 
Looks well in the clear based on the second picture, assuming that's the closest frame. That turn is another situation where the game calls it clean if the sidewall "bulge" is touching/above the track. Had to scrap a few laps like this that didn't get penalized in-game but had the contact patch fully in dirt. Unfortunately it's a turn you have to cut as much as possible for a fast final sector.

That's where I've binned my fastest laps. Either cut to much or go to fast and clip a cone on the exit. I'll have another go and see if I can improve.
 
It's all about the speed you carry or in my case don't carry through the last complex of corner's and you definitely have to use 3rd gear all the way through that complex so you have the exit speed.

Hopefully get to have another go at it before deadline cause I know there are a couple of places in can improve on.
:banghead:

Doing it at 3rd gear, tried lots of lines, none worked :guilty:

Turn two is where you can lose/gain a half a second or more. The terminal speed across the line will maybe get you an extra 1-2 tenths after that it's about that right hand turn and how much speed you can carry through and how early you can get back on the gas 👍
 
No way i can go faster than 107 km/h even this i saw just once when i came close to those cones on park area.when i try to keep good line to not lose time, i have 102-103 on line.

So real life having got in the way of competing in week 4 at Brands have had limited time to run this too. Short sessions on Friday and today only - know there's more time as way off optimal.........hopefully have some time Sunday/Monday depending on how my partner is as shes's been ill over Christmas (no doubt like others) and still recovering.

Using mostly EDK tune with Racing LSD but been applying it in stages as not used to tuning so can see if I can understand the effects a little - camber, brake balance and ARB had biggest effect for me. If I get chance will substitute in couple of Iceman's settings too........

How do you play the replay frame by frame? There’s been a couple of times that would’ve come in handy when trying to check if I’m on track

If you hit pause the fast forward button turns into a different button you can hit that let's you jump ahead a few frames at a time.
