The Sacred Valley awaits us...
Ah, Grand Valley. A classic track, and one of my favorites. The east variant adds an interesting uphill section to an otherwise mostly flat track, which makes it more fun to drive than the full course. And on a fast GT race car, it's even more fun.
Turns 1 and 2: We start off flat out, hitting upwards of 250 km/h at the end of the main straight. Turn 1 is flat-out, just a kink to the left. Brake just after the 100m board down to second gear for the hairpin of Turn 2. Make sure to keep the car straight while braking so it doesn't fishtail, which is prone to happen with most RWD cars on this particular corner. Get on the power as early as you can, and shift up to third gear for the exit.
Turns 3 and 4: A short, flat-out kink to the left is Turn 3, then tap the brakes at the top of the hill down to fourth gear for Turn 4. Be careful not to get on the power too early here. It's easy to get too eager with the throttle and end up overshooting the corner, and sending yourself into the wall.
Turns 5, 6 and 7: Another small tap on the brakes, but we stay in fourth gear for Turn 5. Stay off the throttle and let the car glide, then go down to third gear for Turn 6. Try to treat this section as a double-apex corner. Once you exit Turn 6, brake down to second for Turn 7, the slowest corner on the track, and hug the inside kerb on entrance. Get on the power early to have as much straight-line speed as possible when entering the tunnel.
Turns 8 and 9: Probably the toughest section of the track, as I lost most of my laps here. You want to enter it in fourth gear, tapping the brakes, then let the car glide and downshift to to 3rd just before the apex. Then get back on the power and shift to fourth gear again for the left kink of Turn 9.
Turns 10 and 11: Turn 10 can screw two laps over if you get it wrong. Keep left as you exit Turn 9, then brake down to third gear for Turn 10. You want to be on high revs on 3rd for Turn 10, but if you get on the power too early you'll end up in the gravel, or fishtailing on the exit kerb, which will lose you speed on the main straight. Turn 11 is a flat-out right-hander, so sweep in from the outside as you exit Turn 10 and keep the gas planted down as you dash towards the finish line.
After about 20 laps, my best time was a 1:02.189. Fairly satisfactory, if I do say so myself. Sub-1:02 is definitely possible, though.

From your racing instructor you did a great job in analyzing the track. I raced in the SCCA 33 years I have been a racing instructor for 20 years. Welcome aboard I hadn’t seen your name pop up. Again great job on the analysis of Grand Valley!!

Always very interesting to read you entry's analysis .
Here is my submission to last school
I never felt confident with this car ,just clear the first lap and then try to stay on track.
Edit
Just try to start from the hard ones today and check a bit the Audi at GT3 race.
Deffinetly need to spend time on free run at this .
My lap times was between 2.03 and 2.08 ( first 2.10) which is a far away from consistent lap times.
The weight is huge
and the car bumps up and down at turns especially when cross over the high kerbs of the track not to mention that you are an easy straight target for the following AI.Of course there is no way to win that ,after all it will be a shame for my mates carrying such a huge weight ,just want to have a decent time with the 200 kilos penalty .
I don't know if there will be a 5th round and it will be tragic racing at suzuka with even more weight
The hole thing seems like truck driving
Also for some reason i can't see the order we have on this challenge and the points we have , can't open it .
PS
Hope that nobody cuts the Veedol curve and make it straight down to the coca cola curve ......

You had a great drive good buddy. The Cadillac was a hard drive for everybody.

Thanks Master , was difficult but the knowledge of the track helped the outcome which wasn't that hard at the end .
The 458 gave me more trouble but also more joy since i went " flying " ,this was go slow and win the race .
Irrelevant :
There more rumors that Sony will delay the new ps5 and of course all the upcoming games for it due to the new virus which spread all over and brings a financial up & down and not only.
So we have more than enough time to explore the gt6 ..... For me is almost certain that Santa won't bring new driving experience this Christmas.
I see you at the morning guys.

The car for the next SkeagRacingSchool will be the Aston Martin DB9 Coupe '06. If you have any other questions contact me directly. I raced at the old Nurburgring many times over the years.
With this Virus going around and I don't think there will be any new consoles with games this year, an as you said in your post so we have more than enough time to explore the GT6 is right. Hey my friend I still have PS4 and GT Sport but I have no intention to ever playing that game again, GT6 to me way better than GT Sport.

Was fun but very arcadish. I think for me maybe 0.5 better is max.
Had to post it before I get ban. Sometimes I go down there in forum weirdos department, have to forbid myself to to that anymore. Next time Ill play I'll do @skeagracing race 👍 Tried it today few times but got 5 phone calls and I can never keep driving after pausing the race

I do that same thing that I used to do on race weekend. I hide myself 100% until the green flag drops. I would fall a sleep and a crew guy from my team would wake me up in my race car at the pit when the pace car would go to the ready line so we could line up behind the pace car. For me GT6 is "100% real road racing it is not a game"!! @nostradavor2 good for you!!View attachment 900369
