I know......, and you are maby right, i did try it a couple of times but i'm having the most difficulty keeping it straighttime to switch to motion sensor
But it would def. be better for the controller lifetime.
maby......maby.... i'll give it another go then

Please give it another shot, it may give me a chance to get higher up our leader board then 🤣I know......, and you are maby right, i did try it a couple of times but i'm having the most difficulty keeping it straight

Between you and @Metalgear9493 I always have a ghost I can use. Appreciate the both of you for that. You guys really drag us slow guys up the board! ❤️It's 100% not me. I absolutely hate this car and this track

I didn't time trial anything for 2 days, but I did order the new Fanatec Podium GT3 Endurance wheel today and I'm more happy than the recent P12 at RBR

Ooh, that looks nice. I would love to have that over my 2.5X which hurts my wrists (the 270mm is just too small). At 318mm width that would be perfect. Though the display would be pretty useless in VR

After getting silver in the S2000 without ABS, I was surprised to find I was slower with ABS on. It might just be my driving style, but what I was losing by braking earlier I more than regained at the apex, since the car turned in better on the brakes - the ABS seems to cause understeer. Sadly I couldnt improve my time enough.
The Maggiore TT is interesting because of the BOP and large roster of vehicles (and the track limits...)
I set a silver in the Mustang without ABS early on, and decided to try the Huracan, since it's apparently the weapon of choice.
Welp, the brake bias on the Huracan is so rearward it's almost impossible to trail brake smoothly in the high speed corners. It is exceptionally manouvrable in the first few corners, however. I wonder if this rearward brake bias and resulting turn-in ability is contributing to its pace in this event, even with ABS.
In the end, the Supra was kind to me and rewarded me with a gold time, without ABS. The brake bias is a smidge rearward and the brakes overall a bit too strong for the tyres, but in terms of consistency and laptime, it was the best of all the cars I tried.
The Megane at Goodwood is not too bad without ABS, but it takes a lot of finesse! I might try out that counter steer assist, otherwise I'm using no aids and a dual shock, and gold feels out of reach (unless I get a miracle at the chicane maybe...)

The Mustang was a little too understeery and although the brakes weren't too strong, they were too forward.
The 86 was nicely balanced on the brakes, but lacked overall grip and speed.
The C7 was stable but not agile enough, brakes again too forward.
The Viper was similar to the Vette, but the brakes too strong.
The 458 lacked aero and speed it seemed, brakes otherwise only slightly forward.
The Vantage just wasn't quick enough
The Cayman had nice balance, marginally forward brakes, just lacking in aero.
The SLS was similar, overly neutered by the BOP and brakes too forward.
The Megane Trophy didnt have enough straight line speed, otherwise it was very nice here without ABS.

Yeah, 54 dropped to 52, ask @half_sourly if you want to know more about it

As @Barareklam said, 52 with gold in all the 118 TTs where (most of) the whole world could take part .
Here is the list of drivers. Presume you are GT_Zocker1990 so not sure how with your German account you have more than 118, as I think only US, UK and Japan had regional TTs. Have there been European regionals that I'm not aware of?

It took about an hour of constant lapping but I just about made it into the gold times at Lago Maggiore this evening. I know I'm losing time on the long right hander before the uphill section but I don't think I'll have the time to improve much further. Even if I could find the time I think there's only ~1 more second in me so I have no idea how people are getting into the 2:05s!

Hi there
What about that last damn chicane??? 😅Jesus.... What a nuisance that thing can be!!!
Today's result before I ran out of patience. 😑

Thank you for still providing this list. 👍
Yes my Account name is GT_Zocker1990.
I think the 3 extra golds are the Michelin Event at Lake Louise and the Honda events. I entered both the under 18 and the over 18 years old competition. Don’t know if this was against some rules but there wasn’t anything in the game that blocked me from entering both time trials.

Okay, I am late to the party but finally ran some laps at Lago Maggiore.
This Lamoo-ghini is just camoo-flage for the butcher but obviously is too slow...
Might try something else to get into gold but "else" is also a beautiful name for a cow... Stay tuned! Have a good time everyone!

It's first time that I see value in using a very quick ghost (tidge) with +0,3s and sector regeneration.
Usually having it was more a distraction to the sight than else.
Is it the combo? Is it chamging something with me? I really don't know ...
I'm quite happy with the result, even though I don't think it's safe.

Ah of course, the Honda events had junior sections. I don't include those in my count because in theory they are not open to all in the eligible region, only to those under the relevant age. And the names aren't shown (see here for example from a current junior event)
