Time Trial Discussion

I'd suggest check @snc for his TT guide through videos.

I think you are confusing @snc that posts links to lap guides with the youtubers he pick the links from like @Mistah_MCA @Tidgney or Kie (not sure if he has an account on the forum)

He runs TheKie25 channel I believe.

Its Kie25 tutorials, I only post it

I am not sure. See his reply above.

I'd suggest check @snc for his TT guide through videos. He explains which gear to use where & gives good reference points to brake or turn. Any guidance from anyone does help in getting our driving style more sharp.

He runs TheKie25 channel I believe.

He does not, and he already told you that.

Its Kie25 tutorials, I only post it

 

[Chris30]

Yes, @snc links the Kie's and Mistah_MCA's guides and posts them here. I believe it with my photostatic memory. Anyways I'm going to eat breakfast, so I'll check in with you guys later on.

Bravo ami voisin, the job is done, and perfectly done!!

I imagine if you get below 1:34 a UFO hovers above your car and you get abducted 😅

 

[MIE1992]

Collected 2m credits from the Gr.3 @ Spa-Francorchamps time trial, thanks to a time I had set with the Renault R.S.01 GT3. Then I tried the one with the M3 (E30) Sport Evo at Red Bull Ring Short and got a solid time of about 1:00.7xx, so that had put me around 3.84% off the top when I checked. I don't think I can get a time that's several tenths off to get into gold range, but it's still a fun combination IMO. Definitely looking forward to trying the other two, with the X2019 and 300 SL (W194).

 

[Talon16]

Oh lawd, new top for Merc/Willow time has me less than .100" within gold. On a combo I am not good at, not happy about that!

Exactly mister,
Be carefull you are close to a one way trip 😄

 

[Interemptor]

So close 🥺😂

Edit: Oh my I'm shaking 😂

 

[Pesselles]

So I imagine that I'm far away from an abduction with a sub 1:35....

@bluealpine: I'm 0.005 sec behind you now #TeamBZH #BreizhPower

I've finally nailed 3 goods sectors in the same lap (I knew it was only a matter of time and patience).

Sector 1: 29.910 - just correct, I'm 2 tenths away from my best 1st sector (29.695).
Sector 2: 34.228 - not my best (I've already scored 33.988 once), not yet 100% comfy but getting better.
Sector 3: 30.785 - clearly the point where I've made the difference on that lap. Already scored several times under 31.x

So theorically, there's still 0.4 secs on the table if I nail 3 perfect sectors and indeed, my new optimal is pointing in this direction:

I find the sensations of pleasure that I had with RoadRunner on Grand Valley. Even if my ranking is very theoretical at the moment (1620th), I am violently happy to have achieved this score for now.

Have fun friends, enjoy the ride and grab the gold!!!

I just miss Ronald McDonald on you scoreboard…😂


1.35.334 Big Willow (TCS2)

Definitely not love on first sight with this combo.
Happy red laping…
Anyway first stint I would rate this a relatively easy gold even for humans.
1.34.xxx is my goal here and it if was not the annoying last corner I would be already done.

 

[SPL170db]

Knocked it down a bit more to a 1:34.305, with a 1:34 flat optimal

 

[Jeje6410]

New test today in Willow Springs and improve my time at 1'34'268 with optimal time at 1'34'090

Edit : 1'34'231

 

[Ed_Night]

Grrrr... could have been a 32 but ran wide in the final turn and had to slow down to much to get a decent exit. 🥲

You had me all worried,🫣,....i'm still in by .072,....🙄

 

[Chris30]

@Ed_Night do you own a wheel? I was wondering how you break those hot records. I'd like to get to your level in the future. But that would probably be 4 to 5 years from now.

It takes a ton of work earning a gold time with a controller. Hey I'll be 33 in September, so I'm not far from your age.

 

[VSpec_R]

I’m still at it! A small improvement and so close to a high 59 I would like to achieve. I’ll keep pushing.

 

[Gogga]

Day 2 at RBR. The BMW needs to be driven like you stole it. I will get back to this one after dealing with with Road Atlanta. Not looking forward to that monstrosity at all!

 

[Chris30]

Great time there, @Gogga

I'll crush the dream Chris, Ed is on controller...
You can practice for 5 years Chris but you'll not going to catch him mate, sometimes people are just faster, I won't catch the dude either ...

 

[Gogga]

Back to Red Bull Ring while I watch the Euro Quarter Finals. Will tackle Road Atlanta when I'm fresh early in the morning.

 

[CommanderBond]

Anyone playing controller have different settings ?

I run my sensitivity at 3 and both trigger settings are at hard.

probably. lol

I run 7 sensitivity and no trigger feedback at all.

Controller player user here. I run 9-10 sensitivity. It will take some to get used to. Trigger feedback disabled.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot later today.

I'm on a controller, sensitivity at 7, and I use the sticks for throttle/brake and steering...

 

[Chris30]

I normally bump my controller sensitivity settings to 8-9. It works everytime. And here's another tip: have the TCS at 1-2.
