Thanks for sharing the video Ron, I will make use of it tomorrow. Very nice sector 2 time 👍, are you using any BB?

Initial splits

39.951
26.359
23.779

Thanks Eric 👍 been using BB-0 since I started with it

I hate this car/track combo, it's like driving a boat
Any tips on how to drive this car? I find it really oversteery which makes me spin out all the time. I can't get a rhythm on this combo at all. Not a car I wish to drive again that's for sure

I'm not sure how to answer this other than just be gentle on the throttle if you can it's quite tricky and has a tendency to jump away from you.. get the throttle on mid pressure during the tight turns and don't floor it on exit just try to apply it smoothly when the time is right 👍

I probably wont be running this one again and will be a back marker by the weekend.. might make me push for a last minute banzai!!! 👍

Good luck with getting your problem solved on your g29.

Just took a peek at the leaderboard and noticed I transposed some numbers on my t1 splits.

Can't see myself getting into the 25s in sector 2.

Won't be me, I have never understood this track and the car doesn't help me either. I find the cars turn in response to sharp, tried changing my wheel settings but nothing seems to help.

I get what you are saying about the car's balance. Besides the rear grip issues when accelerating out of a turn too early there seems to be a speed threshold of it going from under steer / too much front grip.

To echo what Ron suggested, have a little patience. This is one of those combo's that require logging some clean consecutive laps in order to get a feel for where and how much you can push it. You should start seeing some positive results in 10 - 15 laps. Good luck!

After a longer absence, finally a juicy combo I can enjoy

First splits after around 15 laps. There's still time left, haven't reached my goal yet.

[Philtaylor17]

I have no time this week, none at all, so i told myself repeatedly "don't run it, you won't have time and you will get frustrated".

And now here I am about 2 tenths off my optimum and I know I'm going to be going crazy becuase i won't be allowed to chase it

Super splits Phil 👍 I knew you would do well here... again!! I'm getting Déjà vu

Thanks Ron I like the GP track, and i tend to go well round it, if it was the nordschleife you would destroy me though

Loving the SLS GT3 round here, absolute monster

right, back on the dreaded tarmac, no chance of repeating lat week but lets get on the board!

Another session and a proper improvement:

35.928

I've reached my target and then some. I'm probably gonna have another go during the weekend but this might be my submission...

[Pigpin13]

Made .7 improvement at the line. Still not happy with it. Can’t seem to find a good clean rhythm in the first two sections

[turnupdaheat]

No offence, but I don't believe the thread is killed. If everyone gave up because someone was posting splits that were personally out of reach I don't think the WRS would continue to survive as it has for so many years

 

[Mr P]

I was just basing it on activity mate.. I will delete my post before I upset anyone else 👍 It's gone!

 

[turnupdaheat]

Ah no, I wasn't upset by it

 

[Philtaylor17]

Hopefully a nice bit of leaderboard activity now the weekend is here
Think it's just been a quiet day while people are busy or chipping away at their times

Plus this is a mega fun ( if challenging ) combo!

Not sure how much changing I can do to the leader board, but I will be chasing it.

Oh yeahhh
0.250 dropped and you would be 2 places higher, that's a good run through the chicane away dude

I keep trying and coming up empty....
I would love to see post the video of your amazing T1. Can't guarantee it will help me but for sure it would give me hope

At this point I'm so desperate I think I'll go revisit the circuit experience

 

[billyjoebobx]

Well I improved my splits by 2 tenths
...and then lost 2 tenths in the last sector
I've also seen 35.6s at T1, so I'm about 4 tenths off of an ideal lap, or in other words I'm at my limit

35.894
26.094

[RuddRacer]

Only seen a hand full of sub 36 T1's all week. Going to need to figure that out in order to trim much more off my lap.
