Best lap so far for me is a 2'07.646,But like Hyperspeed its by no means my best one.It will have to do though because i am away for 3weeks from tomorrow.I look forward to see how low this gets by the end.:cheers:.
 
Just did a few laps to get a baseline time of 2'07.443. Like the other guys, there should be a bunch more time to shave off though. I wouldn't be suprised if we see some high 2'05's from a few folks. I've always found this car to be one of the most difficult cars to drive with the 6-axis. With the power at the maximum setting and weight at a minimum on S3's tires, it feels like a real beast I'll tell ya. It does seem to have a fair bit of understeer as hyper mentioned, unless of course you start throwing the rear of the car around a bit.

Edit: New PB 2'07.035 with a bunch of little mistakes here and there. It's extremely tough trying to put in a perfect lap with this car using the 6-axis, as it's always on the edge of wanting to break lose. Hopefully I can have some better luck tommorow 👍

Thanks mate...there's still a lot of time left on the table, but like I said I found this one to be pretty damn tough. Last time I tried this TT I went up 3-4 tenths by T2 and then managed to throw a wheel off at 130R, completing nullifying the lap :ouch: After that I was unable to improve of course :rolleyes:

How come this TT is so dead so far? Not even Timo has posted a benchmark yet :nervous:
 
I just had a few laps, went a tiny bit faster, still a crap lap though, im not happy with it at all, and I dont seem to be enjoing GT5P lately. :crazy:

2'07.634. :grumpy:

If that was 2'06.7 it would be more like it. 👍
 
Good idea Timo! Just had a few laps and managed a 2:07.077. It was a mistake fest so loads of time to to come off. Think my tune could do with some work too. I'll probably manage a 2:06.5 if I spend some more time but I wouldn't be surprised to see some of you in the 2.05s.
 
Timmpaq: You missed my time of 2'07.035 posted on April 5th. It's not much of a lap, but at least it will get my name up there 👍
 
ok quick go and 2'06.772

i think the gear ratios are the most important here 👍 a good use of that will give us lots of time :P
