Non-Racecar Super Lap: Mount Panorama Racing Circuit

[Spiderman_Geek]

Just spent the last hour and some with the GSX. Couldn't manage better than Silver and it was my one and only valid lap (out of about 20). I'm definitely doing something wrong. Love this track, hate this car.

Hopefully as quick as Immortal But seriously , i can't see myself getting any slower until my eyesight goes bad and limbs ache i guess.

My speed stabilised in my early 40's... since then I'm gradually getting slower

I was going to delete all of my friends on the list under the age of 50 because I want to compete with friends 50 and over because I am 50 but I will keep you on the list 👍.

I used WhoosierGirl setup and got Gold by 2 seconds. This doesn't seem all that impressive but when you consider that I spun out, did a complete 360 at the top of the hill, got it straightened out and still got gold I think that is pretty good. The car is still a bit twitchy for my liking so I might play with some settings and see if I can't improve.

Well i've only got 6 years left to find out They do say life begins at 40 though

Just had a frustrating hour on this... the combo is really nice, but my internet connection is a POS today and keeps dropping during a session... and it won't reconnect when it comes back up... meaning I have to keep re-booting the game FFS

1'12.6xx (35th) for now.

Using @WhoosierGirl tune, which is spot on for me with a bit less front brake bias... no idea how you drive this right foot braking!!

I loved my 20's, my 30's and my 40's (so far!)

Each decade was a different experience!

Glad you like the setup,

I have no excuse for not learning proper braking and shifting with a manual other than, being blonde and already maxing out my available brain cells with left/right/start and stop.

Stick with auto and RFB... hard enough to beat your times as it stands!

@hall90 I'm 50. Would be great to have a fellow Five O on my friends list. May I send a request?

 

[PTQV]

How fast are you going to be when you get to 50 years old ?

I'm 49, which means I'm running my 50th year. . DS3, everything off, but for ABS1. Thanks to Crank's tune managed a 2:14.385 on which I might improve some still.
About the down hill section: i brake a little bit before cresting and accelerate a little bit right after while still in fourth. Downshifting after cresting for decelaration is disastrous(I think someone mentioned something about helicopters...). Once in a straight line I brake hard and then downshift quickly. I take the right hander in second. For stability I change up quickly to third, but am asking myself if I should stay in second during the first 4 corners(right, left, right, left).
Nice SE and nice nervous car(except when accelerating hard on the uphill section). Fun!

 

[sstrong42]

I've been lurking for a hot minute, but I'm compelled to post now. I've managed 1:19 and change, but I can't for the life of me figure out where folks are picking up 9-10 seconds. Where is all that time to be gained?

No problem Crozzlow.

 

[Jbaffoh]

54 here, and about to start using my left foot to keep the helicopter pointed straight. Feel free to add me as a friend to beat.

If you don't downshift when braking, it improves stability significantly coming off skyline. Brake and coast or a dab of throttle can help keep you in a straight line. I always use right foot for braking.

 

[WhoosierGirl]

Changed my mind and did some laps, improved by almost one second to 2:11.887.

 

[nowcontrol]

Bit of a challenge to get that little car back down the mountain at speed, but have managed to finish this session with a 2:14.1xx.... I'll be back.

 

[Roweer1]

I'm 51. Doing 2.13.319 with DS3, ABS=1, everything else off. Square- and X-button for brake and speed -not Applied simultaneously. Got Space for new friends to compete with
Using @WhoosierGirl's setup; Thanks for posting.
