Thanks guys, I may be still on -2 since Chaparral TT 😅
Need to try fiddling with this to see how it affects my driving.

For a first attempt it's not bad. 7:42.494
I was well on my way for a time in the 30s but understeer got the best of me in certain corners which I had to drop back into second to rotate the car and cost me valuable time.
Second attempt will be in the 30s no problem
Here is the lap

My plan is to turn all assists off because it does not work with the Silvia Aero car. It upsets the balance because when I turn it slides like crazy. It's been tolerable with the TCS set at 2. And I have my brake balance set at 1, so I think I'm good for now. Thanks for the tips guys, I appreciate it.

Groan.....did 3 laps all in the mid 7:40s. I always buncher some trivial corners and losing precious tenths. Many code brown moments in those laps 🫠

New test today in Brands Hatch I didn't manage to improve my 1'45'333. I had my best time at 1'45'388 but nothing helped. However, my optimal times are around 1'45'1xx. I will come back to it tomorrow and Monday and then it will be back to work on Tuesday !!!! 😭😭😭
As far as the Nurburgring Nordschleife is concerned, I let it go. I think I'll be satisfied with my silver medal. And then I won't have much time to come back to it because next Friday it's a karting outing with work !!!!

Improved the time i did yesterday with an 7.37.292, lost a few tenths here and there but it's a good lap overall.
Maybe my video can help you get that gold time 🏆 good luck 👊🏻

Had two sessions of 'schleife today, so now can maybe extrapolate what's within my realm of possibility. So from 7:44.9 to 7:42.1 to 7:40.6 which had a super rare royal f-up at Wippermann worth easily that second to already get me well into 39s. I'd say sub-39 and I'll be happy. This should be my home turf, and getting this far has been easy, but seems fast is fast no matter what combo so still only matching my long time benchmarks like @Dan_Tes (okay, not quite), @Evilmuffin, @Dolph Drago and I'm pretty sure @Gomario JSP will be right there too after he stops masking his progress with whining how it's "not his combo" 
This 911 really doesn't have that pendulum thing going for it, but on rare occasions it seems it can be provoked. Like the forementioned Wippermann. I was trying to accentuate every turn through Hedwigshöhe to Wippermann with a light tap on the brakes which had worked very well until the point where the speed is a sub-40 lap time speed. Through Hedwigshöhe it was fine, then the Wipperman left turn the tail stepped out a bit and when throwing it towards the right with the tap on the brake, I was properly sideways. A quick left-right-left kept me going the right direction, but real, real slow. Live and learn.

Now I am faced with an ethical problem: abuse of the restart button in search of a better time at brands hatch, or in search of a valid lap at the ring?
Seriously.
At brands hatch I'm struggling, but it's a great opportunity to learn track and driving style of that car
The ring I know little about. The car is drivable and enjoyable, at least taking it around at my own pace, and it's "just" a matter of finding and remembering landmarks.
I'm more or less a third of the way around the track now, and I hope I don't have to do it all over again from scratch if I'm away from it for a few days, and the learning process is still long

Wow, can I just say how much your driving has improved since I last saw it a couple months ago on Tsukuba.
You're much better at using the racing line and with it, much more of the circuit on entry and exit to minimise the angle of a turn.
Progress might feel slow but its definitely happening.
Seeing that leaderboard fires me up to try again
Dans time is likely out of reach but there's the potential to leap above you 3 Americans 
See, I don't believe you, you'll say this then appear with a 7:37 later on

It seems the aliens like this TT.While all aliens keep posting 7:30s laps while eating a sandwich, I did not managed to register a lap yet.
This time I bottled my poor 8:10.XXX at Hohenrain
