Hi,
Still having brake and throttle problems in the settings. Sometime they stick and sometimes not. Off to buy some cables later and try again with the Fanalab software. There is something just not quite right here. Despite the problems....
Managed to get Lago Maggiore down to a, semi respectable, 2:05:3xx in the GR70. I think I have reached my peak here now. Despite knowing the track well and loving the car, it just will not go any quicker for me.
I am taking the wifey person to Malta for christmas and then onto Cyprus for a few weeks, so I won't be around in here for a month or so. My good lady wife has had a horrendous year with funerals and some health issues so this year NO cooking, washing, stressing for a few weeks. I can't wait for some winter sun!!!
I feel I have made some real progress this year. Thanks, mainly, to many many of you folks. Some new gear has helped but it's you people that have made the biggest difference to my improving times. Thank you. All of you! A new personal best and several top 1,000 spots in the TT's.
If you celebrate christmas, I hope you all have a happy and peaceful holiday. If you don't, then I hope the holidays bring you joy and many fond memories. Happy new year to all of you and I will be racing again at the end of January 2025.
My very best regards to all here.
Ian.
EDIT:
A new cable resolved the sticky brake / throttle issue. Now down to a more than respectable 2:05:1xx at Lago Maggiore.
Yippeeeeeeeee! 😃

Trying to get in the TT action closer to the beginning of the cycle! Took one short stint at Goodwood when I came home last night.
Man, you guys on my leaderboard are flying! Nice job. This time is not a bad start, but there's plenty of time to be gained if I can just figure out that final chicane!
. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Later today I need to go try the GR4 event at Maggiore which I haven't even started yet

Go right ➡️, and then go left ⬅️. Then wish all those involved good luck 👍🏻.Man, you guys on my leaderboard are flying! Nice job. This time is not a bad start, but there's plenty of time to be gained if I can just figure out that final chicane!
Great time btw. Solid start!

Sage advice!
Thanks.In the meantime ran a quick stint with the Huracan before heading out this morning. Solid start also, but I think there's at least 0.5-1.0 seconds I can find here before this one expires.
I enjoy this combo a lot. The Huracan handles nicely. Might also try with some other cars.

New test today in Goodwood :
first of all first impression: pfffff...😪😪
I couldn't improve my time of 1'25'290 but I came close with a time of 1'25'392.
Second impression: pffffff....😪😪
I had a first sector of 26'7xx and a good second sector too (I didn't remember it, you will understand why 🤣🤣) when my wife comes into the living room
🤣🤣
and comes to ruin everything !!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I take a look at the optimal time: 1'25'111!!!!!!
It's just a postponement, hoping to find time to improve my time. 🤞🤞
