Thanks a lot @Carlos Fandango ... from the looks of it, it seems to be just a matter of time until you join Club 2:39 yourself. I'm saving you a spot at the barGreat job @crome - that’s some serious peddling!

Closing out the weekend with a final session in St Croix, and actually managed to dip below 2:40. Woohoo!

As I often do after reaching a significant goal set for myself, I did a final "victory lap" after this. It's funny how these often turn into my best performances. My state of mind changes, the tension is gone, endorphins are doing their thing, and sure enough I left the bridge with a 1:51.5 split, well on track for a 2:39.4xx lap time ... but of course I totally butchered S5 again with a 24.9, which was still good enough for a 2:39.9. In other words, there is already a new carrot dangling in front of me 🤣
I guess I will take a break for a couple of days and then decide if I try to attack again depending on both the global and my friends board.
So, your turn guys, see you soon
Edit: forgot the lap ...
Yeah, that just about sums it up, it's a mind-blowing event too.The croissant TT is a soul eating event....

It's not all that bad guys, it just needs a different approach then a mega slidy roadcar or a sticky car on rails.Yeah, that just about sums it up, it's a mind-blowing event too.
I think I did well to continue a little without getting upset and by approaching braking and curves as calmly as possible and by accelerating when the car (or the boat) is as straight as possible.
I further improved my time to 2'40'567 with an optimal time of 2'40'333.
I'm not going to flood you with videos of my best laps next time, so enjoy if it helps some pilot friends here.

Thanks a lot my dear friendThat is fire mon ami, a while ago you did suddenly changed your approach or something, or it's just the french baquettes, croissants and bouquet de crevettes??
This is a fairly fast and not that easy combo If you ask me, hitting top 500 is seriously a good job! Very nice to see you climbing up the board lately 💪💪
