Well, same "consistancy" issue here.... :D Good luck, we still have some time to get a safe gold here!!

Same here for Spa. My sector 1 can be faster than the Gold ghosts I’m chasing but then I lose time though sectors 2 and 3. Next lap I smash sector 1 and mentally, I’m thinking don’t be slow on sector 2, so what do I do? Spin out… next lap, I’m slow in sector 1 and then pull out a good sector 2. Sector 3 just seems bad most of the time (probably as I’ve spent the least time there 😁).

After, far too many laps, I’m now sub 4% but that last .84% is still so far away. Especially as the aliens will still move the goal posts over the next week.

HOLY GUACAMOLE!!! 0:51.799 🥰🥰🥰

After hundreds of laps, hundreds of miserable 1st sectors, hundreds of disapointing 2nd sectors, afters so many laps following @Mistah_MCA and @Evilmuffin ghosts (guys, this fantastic and unexpected score is completly yours, for sure), I'm a happy member of the very select "0:51 Club" 😍 This should hold for another gold medal in 3 days :)

1st sector: 17.310
2nd sector: 34.489

I have a very friendly thought for @Gorefast who was the first of two of us in the "0:51 club" with his Nismo. Well done Dude, you did it great and you gave me another motivation. Congrats for your next yellow medal!

@Evilmuffin: I've shared my video. As you can see, my first curve isn't optimal like yours and this is probably why I'm 0.2xx slower than you on the 1st sector. I'm not unhappy with the other technical parts (the hairpin and the banking) on the 2nd sector.

THANK YOU all guys in this thread for your help, your support, your advices, your ghosts, your videos, you made it possible :cheers:

Thanks also to my fantastic GT-R ♥ (all my winning cars are paint like this)

You alien! 😜 This is going to hold for gold, so now we are at 2-2 in gold medals, my 52,006 is not going to hold I'm afraid.

Yeah, thanks to you and to all your help. That wouldn't be possible without you! 🤝 I owe you a beer (or whatever you prefer)!!
I'll join Spa tomorrow, for sure ;)

Thanks a lot my friend, I'm sure you'll join the "0:51 club" very soon because we all know that vikings never give up :)
Lake Maggiore should be my 5th yellow medal ;)
 
I whooped the hell out of the blue screen!!, I yelled gotcha b#tch ! 2:39.407 😁😁🤣
This was my last try for 2 weeks +, and I'm super happy to have set this before I have to pack and leave..... now I can sleep peacefully in France 🤣🤣

Wish you all luck with the TT,'s, happy lapping boys and girls!, I'm out!
Don't let @NAXEHT know that you went to travel and did not take your videogame...

Congrats to you, my friend! That ist an awesome laptime. I'm happy that I reached my personal goal but now as I tasted blood I want more... Glockpants and you make me come back again instead of visiting my wet favourite track.

By the way I doubt that my time will hold for gold.

This is what I like about those TT's trying...trying....trying....trial and error...and then BOoM.... you nailed it, I'm happy to read that you did, well deserved !

Don't let @NAXEHT know that you went to travel and did not take your videogame...
Lol, I was in struggle with it but made the call not to take the nokia setup with me, I time trialed myself to the french sea in a record time, and now have eleminated all stress factors for 2 weeks, no work, no pressure and no gaming....

But I will be 2% faster when I'm back 🤣🤣
 
Hmmm.....drove a few laps at Spa and improved by 0.002. Found some familiar names arround on the leaderboard 😆

I know I can improve, so after "some" spins and penalties... improved by another (almost) 2/10s :dopey:

Never been so high up on the leaderboard before!

Spa was not happening today. It's funny to me, I watched the WR lap and I have nearly identical gear selection and breaking points without watching a lap guide until now, but I'm still over 5 seconds off their time. Whatever alien juice I found for Broad Bean last week has been diluted by the wet track.

Hopefully something will click before the end so I can at least get gold. No progress today.

Thanks Mister, this score makes me very happy (and a bit proud). Honestly, I learn a lot with these TTs races and this is priceless!

BTW, I wish you peaceful and happy holidays in my country ;)

FWIW....I got my time with ALL the aids turned on 🤣

I'm at less 1/2 a second slower going through Eau Rouge and Raidilon without any aids.

Thanks!, for me the best place to be during summer , beautiful beach, very nice people,
So nice that I'm even setting my time trials aside for this 🤣

Now hunt for that Spa medal 😁you got this!
 
Quick 10 laps at Spa between ‘life’… starting to get the hang of this slowly. Not using aids (other than ABS) as I want to learn the car a bit and see how the time comes down. Managed to find a couple of seconds over my first run on Thursday. Still have less than 75 miles on the car (“it’s just run-in, Sir”) so lots to discover but enjoying it more than I thought I would!

Only silver at the moment on a mid 2:41, but I’ll get there and would like a solid gold lap before the last Porsche eSports event starts tonight (911RSR at Daytona). Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

@Pesselles - great job!
