Obrigado my friend !!@pesseles!!!! You're determined to milk every bit of time you can, aren't you? Great time! Congratz!
Thank a lot my dear Daniel !!!!I've watched your replay and said: "ok, I'm on the same line here... ok, I brake here too.... same here... " and at the end, you're almost 1 sec faster... Very impressive lap, my friend, fantastic score!!
At least this is what they think... @KK78 just accepted your invitation. I didn't realize it was coming from a member until I saw your signature.PS Cats rule over all 😼
I feel your pain. I fly by the truck before the Corkscrew so fast, I'm not even sure where I'm braking compared to it. As for the Corkscrew itself, I can't get the car to turn in at corner entry using 2nd gear. I have to drop down to first to get the initial turn in - being careful not to turn in too hard, otherwise the car will snap - before popping it back up into 2nd and being very careful on the throttle. I posted a couple days ago how I get loads of understeer in the left hander after the Corkscrew. You aren't alone. And the car seems inconsistent whether it wants to turn in the final corner or continue straight into the gravel/sand.Safe to say the Laguna Seca Time Trial requires ounces of patience (and exact lines to get a gold time consistently). Was stuck getting 1:21.4xx/5xx times but eventually managed a 1:21.392 which was nice but not quick enough - even did a 1:21.398 not long after.
After enough hatred and questioning everything I managed to get a 1:21.308 with an optimal time of 1:21.138 which would be perfect to secure gold with - I don’t think my gold time will hold but we’ll see.
Also noticing the AMG isn’t very forgiving with braking before the corkscrew (I don’t particularly like the pickup truck brake marker suggested) and I can’t seem to nail the last sector properly (I think that’s where I’m losing all my time on the lap), way too much understeer and hates the last corner for whatever reason.
Also did this with ABS on weak and I’m seeing on here that perhaps doing it on normal is better, or I’m probably making that up?!
Yup. Had my first session last night, drove around 15-20 laps (when I say laps, I mean attempts, many of which ended me facing the wrong way or in the sand). I think I'm at around 1:20.8xx something, but it's so tricky, the car understeers like crazy at some points and then just sticks to the road at some other points, mainly because of the RS tires. I don't know, I will chase the low 20s for sure, it's manageable. And the Corkscrew in VR... Impossible You can't see anything when you are starting to descend, just pure luck whether you will nail the line or go 2 meters right or leftAnd the car seems inconsistent whether it wants to turn in the final corner or continue straight into the gravel/sand.
The only thing interesting about this lap is that I did it on flat screen with a controller / auto transmission and it was about 6 tenths faster than my PSVR2/ Wheel / manual transmission first attempt gold lap. I can't even usually gold these with a controller. 🤷♂️

The Time Trials do something much needed for my brain. It keeps me focused. Good for my mental health.I think I must have given you my mindset some how 😂 I've been like this with the TTs for a while now.
G29 is getting set up at my gaming PC desk tomorrow along with the PS4 being moved there too, see how it feels from pad the wheel with the new physics.
Question for the Clio TT, seems that everyone is saying it is a pretty easy one to gold, but how come so mamy people are really high up on the leaderboard? If loads of peiple are golding it with really good times then surely others should be dropping down the board 🤷🏻♂️ everyone seems to be 1-1000 on this one.
Looks like it's a GTP gold leader board only 😂

I didn't end up finding the time to repair it on the weekend 🤞 will get it done on Saturday.not sure if you mentioned how it feels with the G29 as compared to pad.
Oops, your moooove 🐮😉Still 10 days to enter the "2:32" Club to escape @P-Courty threat...
BRAVO:I didn't end up finding the time to repair it on the weekend 🤞 will get it done on Saturday.
Oops, your moooove 🐮😉
I did take a screenshot but forgot to send it to my phone 😂
I couldn't go working away for a few days knowing you were back ahead, so jumped on this morning for 20 minutes.
Lap 3 I improved to a lower 2:33.2** then on lap 4 i took over 1 second off yesterdays time.
I have found that a little bit of slip angle in most corners really helps maintain speed in this car (especially T2), I was faster than The Kies ghost through 3 of the corners but he gets away at the dipper.
