🤣 I am 0 % surprised. Thanks for giving me a reason to return. The next guy for me to catch in my league is 15 hundreths faster, that's almost hopeless. You and @bigfluffy888 on the other hand are still within reach ;)

Funny that you consider a 37.901 a "terrible S1" when I only ever had two faster S1s than that. I guess S2 is by far my best sector because I still had multiple 1:16.3xx splits. S3 on the other hand is by far my worst, where to this day I struggle to go below 43.2 seconds.
:lol: yeah high .7xx as fastest seen until now on S1, if the feeling is good i am at multiple low .8xx's per session but the problem is .... the lap is longer than that :lol:, S2 isn't my strongest at all..... you mentioned already a .2xx split.... lowest i had this morning was a low .4xx. and then you got S3 left.... well i guess 1/10 or something of nailing that, so having that combined with the rest is almost impossible.
I think IF all would be spot on i technically good run a low 59.3 but i think not realy more than that.
You on the other hand.... a .2 split will get you into the 59.2's for sure :lol:

Go get it buddy, :lol::bowdown:🫶

:lol: :lol:

I know you'll hit a .2xx or something on your next efford but i am celebrating for as long as it lasts :lol::lol:
Terrible S1 though with a .9 but somehow had lots of speed out of the last corner.



Uuuh.... we have to have a serious talk @bigfluffy888 , it's getting annoying now :lol::lol:, you are like constantly faster now
well done buddy!..... damn maternity room/breathing-ground for aliens here...... :lol:


Ah thank you šŸ˜‚ as always chasing you, @crome and others here is definitely helping me improve. Getting a workout for sure!! ā˜ŗļø

Also, I straight-up noticed that I had been shifting the Impreza incorrectly this whole time… shifting up at about 6800 - 7000 rpm was worth a couple tenths for me last night ā˜ŗļø and staying in 5th for the T1 run-up helped too. I knew I had to capitalize on a solid T1 yeet šŸ’Ŗ

I noticed that the #1 replay was actually shifting down at 6500...most of the time. I've been shifting at 7k myself, but it seemed like last night, 6500 seemed faster.

But I wasn't faster, so maybe it isn't? Who knows!

Indeed, getting any amount of engine braking that the car allows, will help. Interesting point as I may not have optimized in this area… I’ll need to check that next session ā˜ŗļø
