I understand that pretty much 99.9% here on this board and GOLDen people?

We had one at Tsukuba recently didn’t we? Or was that a Daily race?

The kart has been featured relatively frequently but always as a daily, yeah. Tsukuba at least three times, Brands Indy once and also at Eiger Nordwand (which was incredibly good actually!).

146k participants is a lot, but not most by a long shot. Recently we've been around 180k a lot - see Main Table under spoiler.

True, but it‘s not even halftime yet, so that‘s pretty remarkable. Which is why it‘s hard to judge for me if the additional tenth I found tonight will be enough for top 100, but I‘m happy with the result either way.

It was undeniably fun, but I think I am done now unless we get the Lambo VGT again on Thursday … at Lake Louise

Time is close to my optimal, 49.0 seems out of reach. But let‘s be real, this is 24 hundredths from the world record, how on earth am I supposed to improve from here?



CU on Thursday

I'm definitely not. I generally try for silvers at least, bronze if it's a car I hate. Gold if it's an EV or a VGT

Broke with my usual routine of waiting until the last day to run the expiring TT. Don't know what orifice this dropped out of on lap 19 of the 29 I did this evening.

For one reason or another, I'd thought I had to get a 16.0xx lap in for gold and was erroneously thinking my mid to low 16s weren't sufficient. After that 15 popped I ran off several more thinking I could better it and only got within a tenth of a 15 one other lap. Backed out after lap 29 and saw this on the screen and was all "Wuuut?! Dayum!" Maybe it was the 1.5hr nap I had after dinner. @Nicktune it's a single data point at the moment but hey, it appears to have worked here rather well. If that position holds up after tomorrow, it oughta' be my best TT finish to date.

I'm thinking the manufacturer of this car should read "Mitsupushi".

An EV or a VGT? Welp...can't say you don't have range. 😁
