Sweated my absolute ass off for this one, but I have faith this'll hold.

The MC20 was really easy for me to drive on Spa, even with Sports: Hard tyres equipped. I don't know what people are on about.

MC20 is terrible to drive especially on a tough narrow track like Bathurst. I like cars where you can go early on the throttle and that have good initial turn in, this car has neither, and the understeer feels so odd in a car like this, I don't understand it. I think I can do a lowish 2.16-mid 2.16 but that's all I've got. Currently at a 2.17.1.

Even though the RBR TT seems simpler & offers the car with RH tyres, imo the Mt. Panorama TT is much more fun & worthy of spending time to improve. Mt. Panorama as a track has more character than the RBR & there are many places on a lap where you can improve bit by bit which will not be the case with RBR TT.

Hi,
Just a wee bit off topic...
Many years ago - I cannot find the clip. I saw a race at Bathurst where a car had lost control descending the mountain and utterly destroyed itself in the process. Engine out. Suspension off. Total wreck.
After the event, a commentator was talking to the driver, on camera. Whilst playing back the crash for the viewers, the commentator asked the driver - at the very start of the incident....
" And what's wrong with the car now mate? "
The driver, with a look of incredulity on his face, stated....
" Well it's out of control you silly b&*%£$@rd!!! "
One of the funniest things I have ever seen on TV.
Best regards to all here.
Ian.

We have positive and negative feeling about the combo...... I still don't like it 🤣🤣
Did flow into goldzone but was very frustrated because the one lap I was around .6 seconds faster than my ghost my furry ****** did a attempt to barf over the couch.... so went into the wall on the last corner...
Already by a thread..... now Jeddah has woken up even more 🤣🤣 2:14.805

I messed about with a few things last night and I could do a low 2:16 with TCS and stability control on, using the controller. The assists slow the car down overall, but if you just want a solid silver time to end the suffering, then turn the assists on.

This new TT it is very hard for me !!!! 🥵🥵🥵 I love Mount Panorama but this Maserati loves walls ways too much !!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
2'21'978 in 42 kms with 4 seconds penalty !!!!
It's going to be hard but I really believe in it and taming an Italian in the land of kangaroos doesn't have to be that complicated 🤣🤣

Well, my buffer whittled away to like .015" which I knew wouldn't hold, so I had another go. I wasn't able to improve after about 30 mins and numerous restarts until I pulled a 14.431 out of my....ugh.... ear. Deity willing that will hold. Buffer is .468" .451" [time literally went down as I was typing this 
] and P1 will need a 10.515 to push me out.
Can't wait until Thursday when a new TT drops in place of the Mazda one and people forget about this MC20 one!

Filled it up again, fresh set of grippy rubber and tried the wall lottery again.
My corner after the first long straight got me some time by keeping it more on the inside, but kind of lost it down at the hill hairpin, if I'm lost there it goes all the way to the top, even scratched my expensive paint on top of the hill but lightly enough to get no devils time...
I thought RESTART!, but kept going, and found some time back in the forlast S curves
I Even yelled Gotcha B#tch 😄🤣🤣
I hope I sticks! ( but prob. not 🤣🙈)
Moral of the story here...... stripes are faster..... but the real difference guys......
The PS socks 🙈🤣🤣
2:14.538
@Jeje6410 This is a very hard one!, top times are insane but keep going! Nice progress!

Nations cup is streaming now. Watch it if you want your ambulance early 🤪

I think after this TT an ambulance may be just what is required.
100 miles today. I have an opt. of 2:14.6, with a horrid sector 2.
Basically, it's all about sector 2 for me. I'm losing a massive amount of time through there vs @Mistah_MCA's lap guide.

Some more progress at the HSR today. It seems like most here have abandoned this TT for some time down under at MP. But, I'm still on the hunt for a 54 second lap.
I managed a hair over 0.2 seconds today. Optimals getting lower. Very close now.
No wall riding, but just a kiss of the wall at the exit of T2.
