Yeah, the Mclaren is a great car. Planted and predictable, yet agile. A zero-nonsense track tool. I may revisit it before this TT ends.
I didnt'have much time this weekend because i had my eyes checked out with fluid, so was kind of blurry and light shy so the alarmclock at 6 AM this morning for a 1 hour session.
Started with the BRZ again because it drives quite easy and wanted to get it to be as fast as my RSR but after 30 minutes i came clolse to my 911 but just not over it, it's not quite my car, i want it to be, but it just isn't.
then hopped in the 911 again, god what a beast it is, for me it def DOES have some sort of torque understeer and you loose some time on that but that grip and rotation on lifting off is a fine line and can be very fast, stil having trouble rotating it on the hairpin, then again, all BoP GR3's her do.
My pure demon here...... last 2 corners...... i just don't get them
I did mow a bit of lawn at the exit so lost def some time here, but i'm a little closer to the 40's @Dan_Tes
Let's go #teamRSR
I admire your dedication. setting up alarm 6 in the morning to drive an hour on TT... wow... but results do show... any morning soon we will start calling you 👽

I think that's what makes it quick, it really wants to rotate all the time. I think you have to apply a little throttle and wait a split second before then going full throttle, that's what I tell myself anyway!
I'll have to give it a bash tonight and see what kinda times I can post with it. I'm loving the Jaaaaaaaaaaahhhg at the moment, and trying to see if I can manage gold with it, but seeing your time in it makes me want to jump into the Huracan. I've got mine dressed in a Duracell livery, so surely that'll make it faster?
Welkome 😁, nice o see you jump in the TT first thing 😁
We all know livery makes the car faster!
To be clear, I don't feel my sector 1 is strong at all but it was clean, Midnight's looks a right mess and he matched my time so he's probably highlighting that I am too slow. The rest of my lap was very strong so I think to beat my 41.7 I need to find time in sector 1.
I think the 911 throws people a bit as they have great confidence in the back end and try to get on the gas too early. It does understeer badly on exit, there's no tyre slip at all so you better be pointing the right way when you floor it. Folks need to let it rotate for a milisecond longer. I can't get any other car into the 41's.
Said it before and will say it again, every Group 3 race I take the McLaren out, absolutely NAIL a lap, it feels perfect..............and it's a second down on the 911. Must be pig slow on the straights. I'd love to use it but the time is just not there for me, ever.
I've had a good hard look at myself and cleaned up my act. Honestly. I've changed.
I should build it up, just set it to 0 and don't look back, learn how the car behaves, it took me somany miles to get to know the 911 again, and ofcours i have made some pirouettes, I most of the time by hitting the gras on exits ) but i think GR3 cars are quit easly drivable without TCS, just get a good feeling for 25% throttle, 50% etc etc, and be gentle sometimes building up throttle in corners
