Congratulations on your gold!

I finally got Monza just into gold tonight and started on Laguna. Still a full second off gold at this point but I’ll give it another go tomorrow. 😁
Congrats on Monza. I just started that tonight and it’s challenging to say the least. This is my best for now.

Those two tenths are so hard to find.

Sorryyy 😢 this will go down 28.9 max get a 31.600 or below and you are golden
Don’t say that!!!! One of my gold times is 1:31.655 and I really don’t want to try again.

Come on now, you have a good heart. Find some compassion for us poor plebs.

It has been difficult staying away from the TT now that my wheel is currently not working. So I tried some laps with the pad ... Pretty meh, but at least it'll earn me credits for now ...

I'm not sure if I'll try to get a silver time with the pad. But I guess I'm a little surprised I can put down a bronze lap at all. Before GT7 I never used MT on the pad but I was so used to it on the wheel. I have to say, the Dual Sense controller is really nice for trail breaking and throttle control.

what more can I say other than bravo bravo !!!! 👏👏👏👏
If I know what to say: Jeddah is coming out of this body !!!! 🤣🤣🤣
 
Hopped back into the Corvette today. It felt much better than two days ago. And while I spent a good deal of laps improving my time to 1:31.1, I knew I could get some more. I exited to refresh my time so I wouldn't be staring at it again (:lol:) and gave it one more short session. Success! Three laps later I picked up 3 tenths and an easy sub 1:31. Still wasn't perfect, but it was much nicer than any of my previous laps. :dopey:

Quick little session before work today, starting 8:30 AM so alarm at 6:30 for a nice quiet set of laps if the cats are down with that :lol:

It's still a hit or miss at some corners, sliding on entry if you got it right will gain you a lot of time but i must say that most of my laps ending up with restarts, this is not the kind of combo for me where i make 30-ish laps and get in the zone....
It's a restart and full pull thru the line, and if i fail i restart most of the time, now and then 2 or 3 good laps but then i'll stuff something up again :lol:

But this morning i climbed te ladder of the leaderboard a bit :), i had a few good laps, and even had a invalidated 30.6 due to a slightly to much curb entry on the corck. was good imo but PD thought different :lol:

Sort of kind of holding back on T9 because i had a good previous lap and didn't want to stuff it :lol:

1:30.850 ( with sausing the gearbox ) :banghead:

I had a trash sector 2 so I restarted the lap immediately and ghost didnt save. I saved the replay manually will share it if I dont improve, i should improve though and ghost will be up next improvement 👍
I just understood that you are Ebrahim the holder of the pole position 1:29.099 😲😅...Sorry 1:29.080 😮
First of all congratulations! 🙌👽
Are you playing on the steering wheel or controller? If I'm not too indiscreet, how many hours a day do you play?

1:29.075 😜 and uggh that was a 28.9 if not the huge mess up at the final sector 😢. I play with wheel (tgt-2 + tlcm) I dont have fixed amount of hours a day, whenever i feel like driving I do for as long as im enjoying it.

Into the silver at Laguna. 1.32.909

I'm loosing from the ghost I'm following here and there in every turn other than 4 and sometimes 5.
T6: my enemy. I'm very slow at the apex. I don't trust me and the understeer. I think I'm loosing about 8 tenths here and in following uphill alone

Like most of you I don't like the engine braking perk. I'm only using regullary at T2. Other turns, the constant noise of the overravving engine instead of the regular downshift music take me offsynch.

In any case you are very strong, we will even say 👽
You prefer the tt that slides to those with the gr3 that sticks to the road, don't you?
