[Matt Jones]

I'll sit out of this week as haven't had a chance to look at until now and the car is a million credits! Best of luck all, looks like a great combo

Thats me done. Got to be honest I struggled with this one. I think my big issue was the length of the track - screwing things up then you've got another 3+ minutes to fix the issue the next time round or hit restart. Maybe it's impatience and also I much more enjoy smaller tracks. I'm whinging, I'll stop the now haha

Had to do more after I checked my last replay... And it was dirty. Worked out well though as I got faster! Replay looks clear too. Submitting that one.

 

[Mike11]

Well, after 2 hours of trying I can’t put in a clean lap to beat my current time. So annoying, I think I restarted no less than 40 times due to messing the first few corners up. I managed to get S1 down to 31.6** but just couldn’t match it again and couldn’t put a clean lap in for the last 2 sectors when I did get it.

So frustrating but this has beat me now, shame as I know I am at least .5 second faster.

Time submitted.

Looks clean to me, you have the whole kerb to run over. Or is from my understanding.

Hopefully it is... hopefully I get more time to run more laps before deadline.. inproved my time at the line but have some worse splits.

Yep clean comfortably, two wheels touching the rumble, the white lines are limits unless backed by a rumble strip

Cheers for confirming, I thought that was the case.

Too bad the battle we had going on is only for second place now... oh well.

Anyway, after quite a lot of I finally beat my target! Submitted with these splits, good luck everyone. 👍

Good rule of thumb for most weeks, but specific rule this week from what I can tell.

If anyone’s wondering why I haven’t had a go at this, don’t have this car, just barely have the credits (and don’t have car for new combo yet), and my right little toe may be broken, so I haven’t driven much recently anyway.

Actually, a little off topic, I haven’t been able to knock off the rust this time (the last couple of months I guess) so driving still feels... weird. Does anybody have any ideas? I’d really like to start running regularly again, I miss this.

I find that how often I run makes a bigger difference than how many hours/miles.

I'll always perform best on a combo I run every day, even if it's just daily workout mileage until the weekend comes around.

I had about 6 months between combo submissions in GT6 the year I relocated, so that's the longest I've ever gone without driving on GT.

I had a bit of real life racing in there, but still had a solid 5 months or so with no racing.

Was not that tough for me to find pace again, just needed to run multiple sessions.

I actually got my D1 promotion less than 10 weeks and 4 submitted events after returning.

This car has been a joy to drive.

BB+1

Unfortunately, I had an absolute shocker through the Ford chicanes especially compared to the lap I previously did on this run (albeit that was a dodgy run through there), so I'll drop a few positions down the order. But quite pleased with how this combo has gone, good luck all.

Just watched the replay and while I initailly feel I am clean and just abit on the edge, I'd like a second opinion while there is still time:

Ford Chicanes, first portion. That look clean to anyone else?

Yes, you just need to have a portion of the right side tire contact patch on that rumble strip.

From that angle and point in time, looks clean by miles.

Normally i’d say it is clean but as you are faster than me, dirty by miles, lol.

Awesome, I know I can be right on the ragged edge at times so just wanted to make sure 👍
