Thanks Ron, I managed to get a 28.85x and that's good enough for me.
Shaved another tenth from my lap with nearly identical T2.

Hey guys! It's me again! With a terribly slow T2! FML.

Just like in week 53: the same problems with turn 5 (after the uphill). I lose too much time here. I tried to stay in 4th gear but then I always slip off the track.
Best splits so far. BB 1/5.

Read GTP_Patrick1 description of t2 on page 2,its good. I also down shift to 3rd for turn in to the final left at bottom of hill and shift back to 4th at the top of the next hill. Good luck.

Great. T2 is now sort of "ok". Now I completely messed up T3. Hooray! 7 hundredths at the line I think, almost half of the 1.5 tenths was lost there.
Do you guys go wide coming out of the first turn of T2 or stay towards the middle before turning in?

I try to keep T2 as tight as possible, to go the minimal distance. Don't know if it's the fastest way...

How goes it, my fellow WRS'ers? Me, I'm doing alright. I'm currently doing some fun things here:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...r-of-the-week-week-94-07-bmw-m3-coupe.295599/
I ran with them last night, and I had a lot of fun. Being out of racing for a while, it was really refreshing casually racing again, and I must say, I did pretty well. I kept it cool most of the time, and it payed off a few times. I'm still not sure when I'll be able to race with you guys again,
but until then, that is where I'll be.
Catch you guys later!

Just tried again for 20 mins or so and I feel like it will take too much effort to replicate my lap at the back end, so my time is submitted and I'm pretty happy with it wherever I finish at the end of the week... my ideal lap adding all my best splits was .1 faster so will do for me instead of pulling my hair out 
Good luck to all still running it and 👍 to the Admins yet again for another very cool combo

Wait, do you mean sector 2? I thought we were talking about turn 2, the big 200° corner.
Now i'm confused...
EDIT: i get far right in the uphill section of sector 2, but i think i'm doing it wrong...

Cool, then everything is alright! I do it too. And for your "T2", I might be... I might not? ... I am.Wait, do you mean sector 2? I thought we were talking about turn 2, the big 200° corner.

Thanks Miro, I will try that, the first sector has been my nemesis.
To everyone else if you would like to avoid confusion I suggest this naming convention:
Splits: T1, T2 ...
Sectors: s1, s2, ...
Turns: turn 1, turn 2, ...
In my eyes the s2 (middle sector) has 4 turns:
turn1: Uphill left (get on the throttle early, make sure to stay above 100kmh)
turn2: Uphill right (keep tight to the apex, no wide entry necessary, 80% throttle)
turn3: Downhill left (avoid curbs, stay over 114kmh, don't worry about wide exit)
turn4: Uphill right over the crest (this one is straight forward, don't hit the rev limiter)

Over a tenth up on my ghost at sector 2, and did not even get half of that at the line. That last turn

Pekka I see you did a little photo shop to the first picture, hope this car is not possessed like Christine.
Edit Oops did not notice that @jammy21 hinted at it in his spoiler.
I'M OUT!!!

Rats, why do epic sectors 2 and 3 happen after crappy T1s?
