You have a typo for the No-Tune Challenge event because my time is here

Thanks mate, all fixed

 

[smoothbore12]

Dont know if this will be good enough for second (handicapped ) place but on the pad am at my limit.

Might try it again on Sunday ,till then none improvement will follow since ill check again the Senna Lotus on MT gears ........ !!!!!!l
I already see Bryce laughing and spelling : you did what ?

No laughing from me mate, as I'm sure you have something up your sleeve.

Sorry I have not posted any times since early in the week is because my PS3 freezes, it has been doing it all this week on/off. My PS3 does not get hot and I have the digital version, and I think is is just about dead. I will see about getting another one or not.

I don't think a screwdriver will fix it, but this will.

I have nothing mate and is not a shame to admit it .
Can't improve my place anyway and its for 2 reasons:
First ,the single seaters are quite different as about the way they steer.
Second is the necessity of MT gearing which am not familiar at all.

On the other hand i could try , perhaps is waisted time but what the faq ? Always there is a first time

You don't have to use manual gears, I didn't
I love the way the Lotus handles around Monaco

Thats " good news" from one side ....
The other side is that probably am suck with it since i need time to find the proper steering sensitivity and do many ( more than many ) rounds around MC.

Will see what happens at the end , perhaps ill try it tomorrow .

I want to get quite a bit closer to 10. I have plenty of time, still.

 

[smoothbore12]

Have a good Sunday guys.
I doubt for any improvement to come ,i try to run a bit the Lotus yesterday but my nerves get very tense and quite in half hour .
It was a free run but can't deal the wall hits or loosing the half of the track apex's .
As i said at Goodwood i reach my limits and didn't bother farther ,the only thing i done this morning was to run a bit the next Goodwood run with 507 and i was surprised how much you loose or gain cause its a" slow" car and there's no way to recover since you need actually only one braking.
Don't know if i will have the appetite to improve my lotus run time at noon but i might .
If i knew the next school lesson there's no way to run lotus , button steering at single seater is pain in the a.s.s.
and i hate hitting walls at my favourite track .
Well done Saint , you push me way back on last place

Waiting forward for round 59 .....

I hope @Bruno Guima not be disappointed because of slower ( only then you get disappointed) times at no tune and didn't post a time yet.
Am living example ,while on the majority challenges am good enough ( short of) this round at 3 Crown i suck .
Come on mate " hit " your stuff and join our company.

 

[RMan72]

One for you @smoothbore12

Hope you like, not my fastest run but close and only the one wall brush at Sainte Devote on the last lap

Almost a good one. Best lap of the race 1:25.54 while I got just under 1:25 like a half an hour prior. I didn't go for it all day, the wheel went to high-fan-mode on lap 5 (this sprint) and certainly I got a little warm as well.

edit: Oh, no Replay forum now? So I made a Bump-a-Reel from the sprint races today. youtu.be/mAPYe8wOK6w

@Thematic ,the same happens to me as you did in your vid

Also i turn it upside down on Casino hotel turn once , anyway i will never get use to it and that damn halts that occurs are " killing " me .
Its a track that needs a " flow " no matter if is slow or fast , you just need a flow to carry on and to enjoy it .

You are right, but eg. exiting the chicane (which I think is quicker or more consistent left to or away from the rumble in this case) you can go very close to the left side barrier without losing speed. This is not good, well, for the dangerous kind of races / trials you should have tracks where the fast line(s) are removed from such hard points.

2nd try without ballast... I hope having a last session after movie to attack 1:39....

 

[smoothbore12]

3 Crown final entry
Had a better one according to my lap times but at 5th lap i stuck on the chicane left side and i $%\#¢€¥≥¥¥€¢ and quite any other try.
Having a flow and no rush i achieve as best lap at 23s but not at this run .
At least i try it

[smoothbore12]

Congratulations guys for your efforts on this round , especially @RMan72 who did a world record i guess on Goodwood .
Noel's surgery it was on the program but cancelled due to the outbreak and did it now ,hope to be soon with us and be in charge again quickly.
Tinkerbell we miss your on and of topics.
Glad to see Barnavas again even that way .
Have all a good and safe week.

 

[bjl23]

Also, you may notice that for the NO-TUNE CHALLENGE I've added that the DIV 1 players can't do an oil change, I've done this due the lack of Div 1 entrants lately and I want to see if this rule change will bring Div 1 and Div 2 players closer.

So can all Div 1 players try your best to enter this round so I can get an idea if this will work,
Thanks.

Goodwood story
As i said yesterday i try the Ferrari at Goodwood but was in vain.
So i check the next one preparing for the next round and following the steps of Ferrari i grap the BMW for a ride
Here is my first record while you see whats was the old one.

After that was getting better

And better

And still the ghost shows that's there is even more room if i was lucky and i was right.

Lapping less than a sec to whats world record is ,was more than enough for me.
