THE CHALLENGE HUB, CHALLENGE COMPLETE

[skeagracing]

The following turns can cause you to over steer and get you into a 360 degree over steer situation for which there is no correction that you can make to get you back on track. Turn 10 and 11 at Bruxelles corner. Turn 12 at Ponhon just at the start of the turn. Next two turns are also prime for possible over steer. And last the Chicane, turn 19 and 20 were if you are not careful especially when passing that can get you into trouble if there are race cars ahead of you and you are trying to pass either on the inside or the outside. Picking the correct tire can also be a problem as the rain tires were never fully developed in GT-6. I recommend any soft compound tire for the rain that is not a rain tire. Second the Cadillac spins wheels “Big Time” and when the wheels are spinning you are not going anywhere fast. And last I would loosen up the suspension a bit.

Safety concerns still remain, with the challenging Eau Rouge and Raidillon section seeing a number of serious crashes occurring in recent years, despite the various track alterations. Indeed, the wider run-off could in some part be contributing to the problem, encouraging drivers to over-commit and run wide, perhaps less fearful of the consequences. Races now regularly see drivers leaving track limits and rejoining the circuit in the path of following cars, creating another new hazard to avoid. Serious collisions have occurred during the FIA WEC and Spa 24 Hours in recent years to set alarm bells ringing, but the tragic death of Anthoine Hubert in a multi-car collision during the 2019 F2 feature race may serve to bring further new changes to try and prevent a repetition.

I did some test today ,pa mal i can say .
Need special care at overtakes and the car wasn't tune, only toe and zero camper but was good at the feeling and hope to set it better.
With RS tyres was significant quicker and for sure i won't maximize the car power since i think it make it more difficult to control and there is no need for that also.


@bjl23 since we have an open " account" at no tune and as you said no hidden times etc...... Definitely you need more laps while my testing was at 5.21s.
The winner between us is gonna be the one who drop at 19s or a bit more with the proper field
You push it too far and your luck is about to end this time .
NSX won't steal my time this round since i know am dead last this time
Everyone knows the track way better than me and the team hope for something good is up to Gladiador.
See you at the track you son of a beach party kid.

After some tries at this, I managed to pass the Audi before the right-left, but the final turn got me. Either the next try or soon, I got to the straight part sooner and did okay after that. Too bad about mandatory SRF, the rotation magic tricks in opening sector aren't the sort of play I prefer. It makes the driver's eye view unmistakably handicapped, so I used "normal". Not sure if sub 70 seconds is possible with only brief contact with the kerbs.

I loaded the mission but got weird behaviour: choosing restart on track resulted in a 30 s delay, which is about 10 times as much as one can expect. So after some tries I went to main menu and did something else, which worked as usual. Loading the mission again, I saw it work properly.

Need some feedback on the SkegRacingSchool and that is to see if you guy's think it has evolved into being hard for you guy's race there??

Its not that hard Noel ,just didn't get the proper time to deal with it and in fact was the last i play two days ago .
It was a bit heavy the last couple of days at work plus other things and didn't play anything at all.


Good time @Thematic at mission ,just realise that also this mission is silver in my game and hope if i have the time at least to take the gold .

Hi Noel, I've had no game time at all this week been working away in London. Will hopefully have a go on Sunday morning.

I love the picture from your office fascinating view. I spent time in London as I had people working for me for a computer company Sales office and that view was fascinating. Can’t wait for you to try the Cadillac

It takes a lot of dedication to appreciate the joy of such a track bryce..I was like some others not really caring about the ring until I seen HOLL01's GT4 record and I just wanted to beat his lap.unfortunately that never happened 3 seconds shy but am not disheartened from this I learned from the best! Of my capabilities and of course I love the namehere's dans most recent lap from the Lewis Hamilton DLC some lap..

 

[bjl23]

That's insane.
I think the only reason why I don't like it is because I suck at it.
Trying to remember the speed and lines for all those corners make my head hurt, I also hate it due to its so long. Specially when you are on a great lap but them you stuff up with only a few corners to go.

I bet it would give you a massive feeling of pride when you do master it.

That's how I didn’t learn the full track for a few years when driving fast if I crashed wich was nearly every lapI would restart so I only got to learn half of the track more than all of it' nurburgring forever bro

I didn't know the ring until gt4 either. Than I decided to learn it, I was running s2000 on SS tyres. And I did like 100 laps because I had a time in mind that I wanted to do. Now I know it was good combination because itnwas easy to handle car on tyres too good anyways but that way you get to do fewer mistakes and complete full laps which is most important. Not just sectors.

 

[skeagracing]

The answer to running the Nürburgring Nordschleife is to memorize every single corner. Go slow to go fast and forget who is on the track. Take the scenic route stopping along the way and look around every corner all 170 of them. ""DO NOT RESTART IF YOU MAKE ANY KIND OF MISTAKE JUST KEEP ON GOING TILL THE END AND DO IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN"". Also go on line and and memorize ever single corner. One more thing on the track in GT 6 look at all the markings on the track itself and later when you are running they will help to guide you as to were you are at. More later.

 

[nostradavor2]

Noel I have almost no time to play at all but if you do school on the Ring I'll do it.. Promise

Also guys my times for this round probably next weekend :/
