Nice lap, especially T2. But what is it with the TCS
? I see it kicking in twice, and both times it does not help at all. If you can do a 1'26.6 with TCS, you can also do it without! Especially in a car like this which has so much traction already.

Amazing time
And nice sliding. Now I see what you are using that huge rear brake bias for 👍

good lap, with the windscreen wipers on.
And GTP_Plato: I tried to check but you renamed your map so my PS3 can't read it.
My alternative to rage quitting is to spam the L3/R3 which sounds the horn and puts the wipers on. Since this car had no horn, I had to make do with spamming the wipers! 💡
Thanks for checking! 👍

Some stunning times in there and some good competition in D2 and 3. Fairly happy with that, given how bad my T1 was, I'll take being half a tenth off a D1 Silver time, which is my target every week. I think my problems in T1 was just a lack of being smooth and trying to gain too much time, but meh, I still really enjoyed the combo. T2 and T3 in particular were quite strong. The chicane in T3 was really fun, I actually found trying to use too much of the kerb was a bit of a hindrance as it would throw the car out a bit too much, with the higher level of kerb on the inside.
Congrats to all the winners, and I can sense Vagabond has D1B on his tastebuds. Well done buddy.

Where do you find the green flag? I have verified GTP_CHUK. Just don't know how to make it official...

Copy and paste from somebody that has already verified a lap
Sorry maybe should explain better, go to the advanced options, scroll down to somebody that has already verified a lap, right click on the flag symbol, and then go up to insert image and right click again and paste it

Very nice T2. If I am to say anything it is turn down TC, you are good enough to do without it 👍 (and you will be faster
Thanks cicua - the tcs (set at 2) doesn't normally get a look in, but it provided some consistency for me, especially as my lap, and all my other fast laps, was done on cold tyres. I just seemed to prefer the balance of the car like that for some reason. Thanks for the props on T2 - at the end I was able to run a .6 quite regularly, and from watch Daniel and Vagabond's replays I took two of the three corners in a higher gear. Seemed to help me judge entry speed, control wheelspin and also the engine has a lot of torque, so straightline speed wasn't overly compromised.
My issue was always turn 4 and the chicane...

Here's my replay. Was never quite certain what I was doing this week, which gear to choose etc and managed to consistently overshoot the first hairpin no matter how hard I tried. I had also assumed for quite a while that I'd gone off on the chicane but after I checked it looked okay so I stuck with this one.

Nice lap, especially T2. But what is it with the TCS
Thanks for checking 👍👍
Didn´t notice i made that time using TCS, because i never use it.
I remember early on the week someone said something about using this and i gave it a try, but i didn´t liked as always.
Could it be i forgot to change the settings, and even so made this time
Just for record, how could i see the "TCS kicking" on the replay?

Not quite how you do it, next time click on copy image url, then you should just have the flag and not the link 👍

Just use the quote button from Vaxen's OP (opening post) of each thread and copy/paste it into the reply.
You have the correct URL but you need to put

When the top of the throttle bar becomes red instead of white, is when TCS is braking for you.
And the secret way...
You can open the RA menu in a replay and see what settings the driver used. Map the X button of the DS3 to "Open RA menu", watch replay in bumper cam and click "Remove On-Screen Data" (fourth button from bottom left), the RA menu will appear. If you click Down it disappears. Click Remove..., Down, Remove, then it reappears with the next setting.

Thanks for checking Darkstar! 👍
And don't worry, I usually need Jake or Kenny around for both uploading and downloading replays, let alone the flag. I'm getting better through practice though, so have hope. If I can learn to do it, anyone can!!

Congrats to all division winners and podiums 👍
GTP_PlatoNice lap
And of course
Thanks for checking 👍
I just wish I could of got the T2 hairpin right, I struggled with it all week. I saw what I was doing wrong after watching a couple of other replays. I was short shifting to third to early in the hairpin and sacrificing a faster exit.
My target all week was to break into the 1'25s, I knew it was in me to get one if I got the hairpin right. I managed to get it right once with about an hour to go before the deadline and was over 2 tenths up on my time but I was to keen to get on the gas out of the last corner and span out
Thats the way it goes though, still more than happy to be on the podium as when I saw the track that was picked, I knew i was going to struggle, but I didn't do as bad as I thought.I will have a look at your replay later on
