I was going to run some laps this morning but internet was dead 🙈 So it will be tonight before I run some laps and by that time I will probably forget how to drive the car.
That's kind of the reason I haven't been pushing TTs recently. I'm mostly busy during weeked, and by Monday I will have to relearn everything.....so I kinda just give up 🙈 Now whatever time I post by the end of Friday (sometime even Thursday) is whatever time I end the TT with 🤣🤣

Hi,
I have run out of time here. Cyprus beckons. Sooooo frustrating on these 2 Time Trials. Just when I am really beginning to get my "eye" in, I have to go on holidays. Unless any of you folks want to go in my place? I am sure my wife will understand. NOT!!!
So very close to a 14:XX:XXX at Watkins Glen. I was very very close to a PB at Suzuka too. Ohh well.
Happy lapping folks.
Best regards to all here.
Ian.

Hmm... it seems that your speed would allow you to earn more gold and silver. How come you don't go for another (bunch of) laps? I personally enjoy the time trials most and would have left GT7 already some months ago without this challenge (and the awesome community in this section of the GTPlanet). Congrats to your success!

I'm with @Gorefast in that I love (most) of the TTs and find they help me in my main stomping ground which is the dailies.
I know you do a lot of dailies as well @brockie so bring that pace to the TTs
The TTs have a collateral benefit for me is that it's a more competitive version of the circuit experiences with "skin in the game" so to speak.
I have an equal'ish spread of bronze silver and gold which is reflective of my tastes more than ability I think.
Well come to the dark side that is the TT addiction also stay away from @Dan_Tes and @half_sourly

Made the mistake of trying the Red Bull event the other day, and then made another mistake by crossing the line on rare valid lap… 🤦♂️ Now I’m locked in on trying to get to a decent time together. Optimal is a 1:26.6 but right now I’m some way off that and frustratingly just outside gold. Time to watch @Tidgney ’s guide and turn a ghost on… think I’m just not coasting at the right points in some of the longer corners, but I’ll work it out. Cheers all

Turns out this works on MacOS as well, so I downloaded it to my laptop which I usually have open on my coffee table anyway and just maximize the app on the screen when playing. NICE!

We can't convert them all sadly @Gorefast
@brockie these are nice fillers for us daily race types in that we get to practice braking, lines and have something to chase. You'll see it in you QT times. And that will lead to better races mate.
Also Dan and Sourly I was joking...or maybe I wasn't 🤣 mwwwaaahhhh

I'm missing couple of pages here, run the tt and find mr @Gomario JSP 25 overall... this is serious business... jawdropping...
As for me
First time I'm not happy about my result. The time comes from a lucky turn1. I cannot handle it, but from time to time the car ends up in a suitable spot for the lap to be good. I'm just a passenger. Undeserved at all.

Just here to remind people to not give up on X2019 it took me around 4000km if not more total to get gold in the last one.
Now it took me around 70km to gold before the aliens got faster.
With an additional 125km from another day once again it's gold.

Looks like this is Suzuka East/ Miata Round 2. Lots of squeeze, very little juice.
It looks like the new normal for Time Trials is to get everyone packed in as tightly as possible.
It's gonna take some work (and probably some luck, too) if I want to keep my top 1000 streak going.
