Just watched @Dolph Drago lap and noticed that the brake bar is completely empty, when I was running laps yesterday and the night before mine was showing a very small white bar which I thought was normal, maybe my controller is broken then and that's why I couldn't get back in the 49s 🤷🏻♂️ I hope not because out of my two controllers this is (was) my only good one 😬
Will have to have a look at this, really want to get back in that top 200.
Though I have mentioned many times that force feedback settings affect motion steering, I hope brake calibration settings don't affect the triggers when using it because I have taken the deadzone off the brakes via the g29 settings 🤔 guess I'm going to be doing some playing around with settings tomorrow then.

It could be a a bug if multiple people have this issue.
It should be a quick fix by setting the dead zone a little higher in the brake calibration. However, I am uncertain as to whether these dead zones apply to the Ds4/Dualsense triggers. I have never calibrated the controller in these settings.

The Aston felt a little sketchy on the throttle 😬

I just popped on for a minute with my other controller just to see what I have on the brake bar, this is what I have on the brake and accelerator bars, is that normal?
I watched my PB replay and it it doesn't have any little white bars at all, so not sure if just replays don't show it, anyone be kind enough to check theirs for me please 🤗

Hi,
@Jeje6410...
Thank you for uploading that video. At the 1 minute and 40 seconds mark - give or take the nearest metre or millisecond, depending on your persuasion, is exactly where it all goes splat, poop, bish-bash-bosh for me! I am wayyy too far "in". I should be wayyyy further "out"!!! I simply cannot believe I have missed that in my countless attempts.
@Pesselles...
Watch this space! Please re-package the "fighting spirit" and return it as soon as you can! Thankyou.
@ My Wife...
"You know I said I would take you out for dinner this evening? Something has cropped up! Is a Chinese takeaway OK dear?"
Yikes!
Best regards to all here.
Ian.

Well everyone seems to be having so much fun at the Dragon that I thought I'd jump back on, did about 8 laps and got progressively worse, then took a break and studied some replays from you guys and pinpointed a couple of areas I was doing it wrong and had simply got into the habit of doing the same thing over and over... so I went back out and after a few laps chipped in a 1:50.080 and then on the next lap improved again by 3 tenths only to hit the penultimate kerb the wrong way and off I went into the hedge 😭
So @Ian JB I'm afraid I did return and now I pass the gauntlet back to you 😎
Also got acquainted some more with the Aston Martin @ Interlagos and after several laps of grass-tracking and facing the wrong way I registered a time of 1:27.726. This is another fun TT so I'll be returning to this one.
All in all a good week, so long as no one gets alien-like with the Lake Louise combo

I had a poor corner to start sector 2 which hurt a touch. But sector 1 wasn't too bad, and I finally got a good exit off the final turn. It was only a tenth of second pickup overall, but it's difficult to gain time here so I'll take it.
Edit: Also, @crome, is the plugin still not working or is it my computer? It very well could be my computer. This one is on its last legs.
Edit 2: Many hours later I realize I post the wrong screenshot...

It is working in general, although I can imagine why it would not work for some people. Could I ask those of you who use it to vote with a "like" or "sad" emoji under this post, depending on whether it's working for you, so that I can gauge how widespread the problem is? I might send you a DM later. Thank you!

Technically the term plug-in is not correct, they're user scripts. Provided that you have installed an appropriate browser extension, these user scripts can enhance the functionality of a website by running code inside your browser. The links you marked walk you through both the installation of the browser extension and the user script itself, it's pretty straight-forward.
For example, the "GTPlanet TT Assistant" that we are currently talking about is activated every time you visit a page of this time trial thread, checks which users have posted on this page, then calls a backend service (on my own server) to get those users' current time trial results and displays them under their avatar, like so:
However, now might not be the best time to check it out given that, after my switch to another internet provider last week it seems to have stopped working for pretty much everyone except me 🤣
I have a plan already though, it could just take a few days to implement it.
Stay tuned
BTW my other plug-in "GT7 TT Statistics" is unaffected by this.

So... My wheel still shows the little bars for the brake and accelerator even when I adjust the pedal dead zones
But thought lets just go for it seens as @Pesselles told me not to, yes I saw that 😉
So I did a thing
Still wasn’t happy being in 206th place with this... so I carried on....
Didn't improve but became more consistent... Look at that optimal 😱
So went again and well...
Happy now 😁 except for one thing....
@Gomario JSP do not try again 🤣
What can I say, I always do best with slidey cars 😁
I would keep going to try to get an alien time but I really need to get ready for the AMG VC 😅
