My new power cable will be arriving on the 20th, for my T598. It sustained a common failure due to a design flaw in the cable.

Hope y'all have been well!

Ok so... i have heard the Daytona TT is great. 👍😂

Everything fine here, nine days of work left until ski holidays in Italy. 😁

Hope you're doing fine too? You're going to visit a tennis match of the australien open?
 
Got a new optimal of 2:01.7xx but can't put it together on the same lap. :banghead:

Peugeot or Genesis, I don't know which one to use, reading above posts...

I tried the Peugot for a bit but I'm so far off that it'd be like starting over again and I'd rather just fight for a couple tenths in the annoying Genesis.

🥳🥳🥳

Very happy to get P1, not very happy with the lap. 😂

Had a much better sector 1 than on my previous best (-0,128s), than lost a bit through sector 2, still -0,052s infront of my old record.
Sector 3 was the woerst part of this lap, so i was even falling behind my previous best (+0,058s), but the final sector was very good again and safed me the small improvement (-0,018s) and 2 places. 😁

Amazing. Well done!

New ghost for me to chase too :)
 
Tried the Peugeot (after the 919). For once a VGT where you see outside in VR ! Citroen by comparison is like driving in a mailbox. (919 is not a VGT but between the wheel arches and the things on the windshield, visibility is bad).

I find the Peugeot easy to drive, now I need to get some speed. Got bronze relatively easily (lap 2) while with the 919 I was +1s above bronze on lap 2.

Congratulations master ninja, very well done !
 
Last night, after a quick warm-up with the Weeklies, I got back behind the wheel of the Peugeot to reclaim the gold medal that had been taken from me...

I finished 2025 with a gold medal, I let Dragon Trail take silver (I liked the Zonda but not the CoD),
and now I'm sitting pretty with two probable gold medals... 🤔

2026 is off to a good start...😂😂

Until Thursday, I'll be able to go back to the Power Pack... where I'm having a lot of fun... :cheers:

I was driving until now, and I made significant improvement, from 33.9 to 33.4!
Cocpit camera that I usually use is too bad to gain some good result, so I went to one that all of you are using...

Here is best lap, direct capture, 0.300+ cut:



If I could past chicane faster, it would be gold.

No need to worry Edward Lord, the power cable did nothing to fix the wheel! I think it's legitimately cooked. Probably from constant overheating from me using 10/10 :D.

So I'm gonna buy a second hand G923 in the meantime, and see If Thrustmaster wants me to ship it back to them for repairs.
 
Hi everyone- a few laps this morning since it’s MLK day (and I’m recovering from Flu) and had a run at Daytona. Decided to see what I could do with a ‘real’ car first so did some laps in the Porsche 962 since it’s a favorite of mine and have put 3k miles on this car in the game. Easy gold but not competitive.

Switched over to the Peugeot and went faster on my first lap! Some miles later after understanding the car and where to change gear and managed to get a good lap in. Pretty happy for a first session. Switched back to the Lexus at Watkins Glen but couldn’t get within a tenth of my previous best. Cheers all (and great job @Ed_Night on that lap - epic)!

Edit: some time later…

Went back to the Lexus for one last go. Time and patience permitting, there’s a 2:01 in there, but this will have to do.
