Time Trial Discussion

Peaked early! This will likely not be top 1,000 by the end, but happy enough now.

I took some time away to rehooveinate for this time. This TT has been an udder addiction this week. The rest of the leaderboard is cowering in fear of my Betsie's grace and grunt. The two of us are milking every ml, ahem ms, we can outta this one.

Oh btw, did you know that cows lactose?

The new TT can ground beef (pound sand)

I reckon the 55 Mercedes F1 would have suited this track. For nostalgia reason anyway.

I used CSA Strong to get gold. I probably will drive faster another day without it. I thought about making the car more festive - paint the mirrors and wheels green - maybe next run. I'm also trying a new photo aspect ratio to conform to the others. I know I could use the in-game sharing features, but I try to stay away from those, and my method is simple for me.

Today was a black frenchie dawg of a car running around a british circuit. Oh joy dee and I got this!!! So far so carte enblanche!

 

[330_D]

Moar road cars plzzzzz.

 

[SPL170db]

Chipped away a 1/2 second down to 1:25.759 with a .3 optimal....I'm starting to have a little more fun with this one

Ooh, great time, but I won‘t give you this one without a fight 😉

Not in the 1:24s just yet, but I did have two S2 splits of 1:02.9, while this one was over two tenths slower, so … brace yourself 😀

I didn't watch any guides or videos so I have no idea how to drive this thing. I'm just driving it like my GTI and it seems pretty close. Maybe a bit more lively but I've never really pushed my own car that hard. 😂🍻

I wouldn't hate the chance to drive a real Megane someday.

 

[Dolph Drago]

I still hate the final chicane here.

Oh yeah, me neither, me neither! I‘m also driving with one hand and my eyes closed 😜

Seriously though, that‘s mighty impressive, I would be totally lost without the WR ghost.

Oh I chase a ghost but no other tools unless I am stumped. It's hard for me to keep my pace up without chasing a rabbit.

This place makes people fast, though. 🖖

Reckon I should've not told you I was all outta' coupons for cowpuns. I'm udderly broke after paying for this last one.

 

[Metalgear9493]

Enjoy the ghost guys! Very relieved I didn't entirely bottle the last sector on such an epic split 2. Mission accomplished, defeated the ALT in P2....🖕

 

[2cam16]

Ehhh, tough one for me on auto and controller. This is one of those that needs manual shifting. I hate "soft" and "wallowy" feeling cars too. Hope this Bronze holds.

Had an optimal time for the top 10 but I just couldn't swing it tonight. This one is pretty infuriating... That last chicane is a nightmare.

 

[TheNormsk]

Had my second session at Lago Maggiore as my position had slipped a bit since my first run.

The car felt really good and it only took a few laps before I pulled this one out the hat. Now the fact that I’m still only around the top 2000 at 1.75% I don’t think I’m going to chase this one too much as to how high I get.

This one might be a run and done.

Now to try Goodwood.

Edit. First successful lap and I got this. The first two laps were me figuring out braking and understeer 😀

I wasn’t sure about the wayward handling of the Mégane, but you know I might like this time trial.

Edit2. Now 1:26.123 +2.1%. I’m aiming to get onto the 25s.

Edit3. Yep, hit that. 👍

Based on current pace I predict talent will run out around 25.4. It kind of already did as my last lap would have been that but I stacked it in the chicane! 😆

Edit 4.

I have to keep on editing this post because every time I think I’m at the end, when I go back to the game, I set my very next best lap. I got that 25.4. Top 400! (though I’m sure that will drop rapidly over the coming days).

But now it’s got hard. Finding it difficult to improve, in fact, I’m not. But now I said that I should improve that’s how it works, right?

Morning..

The new TT.....yes....forget about the few exits before the huge straights.....forget about the nailing of all corners...... just say Hello to the CoD 666 in the end, it eats laptimes, Dragontrail ain't got nothing on this one 🤣🤣

Found some time this morning, but was laughing when I did check my leaderboard....
That's going to be a real tough on to keep up 🤣

Have a great day!

Great time as always. You'll have two weeks to catch me - can't see myself going back to this one.

Well done, excellent time. Any idea who it might be? I noticed yesterday it was probably an alt, 1st day of play.

I didn't time trial anything for 2 days, but I did order the new Fanatec Podium GT3 Endurance wheel today and I'm more happy than the recent P12 at RBR I've been waiting for 6 months for this to go on sale

 

[Jeje6410]

First test today in Goodwood : 1'25'978 with optimal time at 1'25'566

Of all the wheels, this is the one I need in my collection. Please let me know what you think!

Whoever he is, probably an elite EMEA driver, or maybe Doodle (he's created alternate accounts before)

Here's a message to him

New improvement with Renault Black Bull (🤣🤣) at 1'25'651 with optimal time at 1'25'519

It's 100% not me. I absolutely hate this car and this track

I'll try, i found it quite amusing this morning, and way better for my Duelsense ( i lost one to stickdrift during the Maggiore GR4 )
and sliding roadcars are my favo in this game so i'll give it my best for a few sessions, lets see if i can become friends with the chicane
