Was away most of last week and couldn't get on the wheel, flashed it up today to see the 2 new TTs. Tried the Suzaka one and the car was driving weirdly - noticed that the brake input was going on and off on its own, up to about 50%! Recently fixed an accelerator problem (well, mostly) with air from the top, but that didn't work today.
Stripped the bottom off, blasted all contacts etc with canned air and contact cleaner, put it back together - and it was even worse!
Looks like I'm out of the TTs until I can get it fixed or learn to use the controller. 🥵

That's why I'm not touching the Red Bull TT with a ten foot pole.Meanwhile, I grabbed a couple tenths at Suzuka. Finally, a really good turn 1, though I feel I left a little bit on the table in the final corner. Even with the course being so short, it's STILL hard to put all three sectors together.

Not to lure you in to something you’ll find endlessly frustrating but I think you’re probably underestimating yourself, concering the X2019 TT.

Would you guys mind giving me some advice, MT is too hard here so AT is an acception.
I changed my mind, the Grand Valley challenge is fun and I actually did really well after 4-5 laps. I set my TCS at 4 though so the machine would not spin out. I dislike T1 at the bridge, I braked between the 300-400 marker so my car would not hit the wall, I wonder if braking at 200 would be better since I would get more speed coming out from the turn.
The next section I should have went flat out and not let up on the gas, and I braked at the 200 marker where the GT7 white cylinder things are. I think my lines at Sector 2 were good and acceptable. My goal is to reach the second bridge at the 0'53.000 second mark. But it's hard, but I'll get it eventually.
At the tunnel before Sector 3, where is the best place to brake(markers)? I think I did good but I'm unsure if I need to brake a little earlier to polish up my driving line.
Overall I think this lap is a fairly good one, let me know what you think.
@manou I'm 5 seconds away from your time.

Managed to nail a good lap in time for F1 Quali… Probably not enough to stay on page one but can relax and build myself up for for the X2019 😬

Wow, you got it right on the nose! I guess I'll search for your replay in the showcase, what's your PSN-ID?

Hi guys (and Greek)
First, I express all my admiration to those who participate to the Grand Valley TT (no matter your score).
I've tested the combo for once on a custom race: it's clearly not for my brain.
Otherwise, no need to panic or to sweat, I didn't improved my score at Suzuka.
Since yesterday, I mainly work to improve my speed in the 2nd sector. Tenths and hundredths are so precious here.
My best splits are (compared to Tidgney):
S1: 25.460 (+0.166)
S2: 18.028 (+0.197)
S3: 17.886 (+0.064)
Theorically, there's still 0.3 to 0.4 sec on the table for me if I perfectly nail the 3 sectors.
Good news, still some days to have fun with Miss Miata.
ATTACK!!!

This X2019 TT is brutal and addictive. The speed remind me F-zero GX, with my last holidays landscape...
Always in silver, i enjoy the view.

Nice lap mon ami! Almost there!
I haven't figured it out..... I yelled that I'm not participating because I hate the bull X-versions and their amoumt of brainfaeting speeds and downforce....
I know I probably won't like it, as I didn't like Road Atlanta....
They are also not realy good for my controller cause I'm squeezing the hell out of the thimbstick 🤣
But on the other hand it feels lame to not try it.... to.bull....or not to bull..... 🤣
@Pesselles la Grande Motte , beautiful city, nice different architecture with her tilted build appartements, I'm there every year (visiting due to staying in le Grau du roi)
