T2 has some kind of bump, unevenness, hole in street call it whatever you like that spat me into barriers even though I managed to keep tidy line through. It's just on the corner exitNot a flaw imo,

Curious - do you have the whole spreadsheet of TT difficulty rankings shared somewhere?Interim Results for TT93 at Red Bull Ring in Gr.3 cars. At this interim stage it is the 19th most difficult TT to date on my difficulty-o-meter.

That makes sense. I don’t think PD can split it. We don’t want mileage to accrue because then there would be wear and tear, plus other variables.
I can see both sides of this but agree with Zev in my preference. I'm going to check both my mileage and the car mileage on the next TT I do with an owned car, which is how I prefer to do them. Not that it really matters, I'd rather the in game leaderboard show the car with my colors on it.Doesn't really make sense to me. I would like to have the hours I spend in the TTs added on to my overall stats in terms of time spent driving in the game. It shouldn't have anything to do with the individual car mileage - which are often rentals anyway.
I'm getting ready to try it. I'm so hyped up about it. I hope I get good results.Give it a few laps since I like the car and track doubt it'll hold put its cool.

My race engineer just told me that you are faster than me and to let you by. I’m slow at RBR, I like the friendly atmosphere and challenge here.errrrr...wrong thread?
anyway, I managed to scrape a few tenths off and solidify my silver at RBR thank goodness!

and made a brief stop in gold at HSRShould be able to find another tenth or two there as my optimal was down around 1:01.7xx

I was really surprised when I set that time today. I'd given it a solid effort yesterday to try and improve there but no luck after many frustrating laps. Today, after maybe 5 or 6 it was done.My race engineer just told me that you are faster than me and to let you by. I’m slow at RBR.
Well done! I’ve been pleasantly surprised like that and I’m really hoping it happens soon for the two hanging out there.I was really surprised when I set that time today.

Well, are you sure you're using the Meta Car?
wrong color 😁

Post 1 of the results thread under the Main Table spoiler.Curious - do you have the whole spreadsheet of TT difficulty rankings shared somewhere?
Thanks to You I was able to make inroads yesterday with the HSR TT. Till now I never utilized a faster driver's ghost to help me make myself faster or better. I always tried to battle my ghost which many times was just a futile attempt.I know that I've said this before, because you're not one for actually heeding advice*, but what exactly are you learning by doing 200 laps with only yourself to compare your laps to?
You don't get faster just by spending more time, and you don't get better if you don't know where to improve. All you're doing is following yourself... for four hours.
Five or ten laps is enough to know where you are. Anything beyond that is a waste of time if you're not clear where you can improve and you don't get there by following yourself or by looking at other people's leaderboard times.
Find a ghost on your friends list that's faster than you by only a little bit. Set the ghost to reset at each sector and with a +0.3 or +0.4s offset. Follow it, to find out where it's gaining time on you, and improve until you're faster than it. Then find a new ghost that's a little faster than you and repeat.
And stop setting yourself unrealistic goals. You're not going to get three seconds faster on a 90-second lap. Especially not if you keep wasting time by not employing methods that will help you improve, or spending several hours a day posting inanities here and replying to posts without actually reading them*.
*For an example of both of these things, there's a dozen people telling you (and videos showing you) in this thread to short-shift the Impreza at Eiger. Did you do that? Nope, your video shows you revving it right out...
If I understand correctly, and that is a very large IF, the angle is supposed to be such that you do not press with your foot/ankle. That is to say that the angle should be such that your foot contacts the pedal, but is just used to keep your leg straight, All of the force of your leg should be transmitted through your foot, but never initiated by your foot/ankle. The straighter you can get the relationship between leg and pedal, the less you are inclined to try to use your ankle/foot to increase breaking pressure, the more accurate and less likely to cause injury/pain to yourself. I am sure that someone who actually knows about these things can explain it better and fix my misconceptions. It is my understanding that this is why pedal inversion helps a lot of people.First session at High Speed Ring. I'm terribly incosistend in braking and terribly consistent in understeering into walls!
My optimal is fine (01.7x), but my PB is more than 1s away

I still have to find the new posture after installing the brake mod to the G29. Since now I have to push much much more I had to anchor the seat to the ring, resulting in an increased distance between the 2 pieces. It's just 3-4 cm, but I feel them all.
I'm not sure if I have to search for a better solution to get rid of those additional 3-4 centimeters and go back to my original sitting posture, or if I have to keep them in order to have a more estended leg.
People who have a non G29 pedals: is it ok to feel all the leg muscles plus the lower back muscles involved in the brake action? The best thigh-leg-ankle angle to produce a proper brake action without risking long term injury is closer to a straight line (green, which is similar to what I have now) or it is more exagerated (blu, which is similar to my posture with original G29)?
Thanks
