@fordlaser ...

I'm wasting all my time in the last Turn ..... I find it difficult to take it quickly ... but I know that I can improve it. You can do it too ..
That is the same place I having trouble and I seem to be tuning to much, but I keep on watching the replays of the top few to see if I can pick up some tips. I will try again later today and thanks for the encouragement :cheers:.
 
My personal best (made with @COLOMBIAMIGUE7 setup)

World records



 
Had some laps in the Gr3 Vette at the Nurb 24h TT event, The Vette drives really well here 👍 Someone will run sub 8'10 when the fast guys show up for sure but I managed to keep 1st place for an hour now I should take a screen shot and treasure this moment haha :P Brilliant event this one :bowdown:
Here's my best lap so far with some more to come off...



Have fun on this one guys! :cheers:
 
Hardly any Gr.B dirt tunes out there to be found. So I'll put mine up,

I was expecting to see lots of wallriding at Sardegna, but pleasantly surprised that the top times are pretty clean so far 👍

Unfortunately I've been losing interest in the TTs lately. After checking the tunes here, I do maybe 1-2 laps with each one before calling it a day. There's no reward, the past winners aren't even recorded (an Archive feature like the FIA seasons would be nice), and the combos aren't exactly inspiring. 2 weeks is far too long to wait until the next one.

Inspired by Assetto Competizione's "hotstint" mode, I'd like to see an extended time trial challenge. Drive for a few laps (say 5-10), with tyre and fuel wear on. It will be a test of consistency and tyre management, instead of just all out speed.

Alternatively we could Driving Mission style challenges e.g. drive furthest with only 1L of fuel. Or maybe a new gymkhana layout of the Northern Isle Infield...

Or, PD could bring back Sierra Time Rally style event. One of the most fun ideas they've had IMO, dunno where all that creativity went...

I just ran a few laps with :bowdown: @COLOMBIAMIGUE7 and :bowdown: @xtrax combined settings from xtrax latest post.
Wow, what a great :gtpflag:tune that turned out to be! :cheers:
Thank you both for your efforts!

Confirmed congratulation from my side for such combined setup! :gtpflag:👍👍👍👍👍👍
PS: potential is 1:16.8xx so something intriguing for next DS4 driving sessions

Hello everyone, here is my tune based on xtrax, colombiamigue7 and waukazoo. I'm still at 1:20,235 and improve slowly. I suck at the slow turns, because I'm breaking too late....

Thanks to everyone for sharing your tune. I test all of them, trying to get better. I hope that this tune helps someone to improve.

Btw I'm a DS4 and automatic gears driver.

@xtrax Great time my great friend ... take away those two Germans who make a turn against the walls that do not count for me .... Mega time my friend mega time


Thanks man , yes i see that some drivers are now driving againt the walls.
PD should normally give penalties but it's not the case :grumpy: it's pity but it's like this.

in case this could help my last setup, but don't know if really the improvment is due to setup or not :D
