lol...Hyundai.

"Sir, we forgot the brakes!"

"Dammit! OK well just grab the ones off that Accent in the field over there for now!"

I managed to crack silver in my daily marathon test run on the controller so hopefully gold is where I land. Happy to see my iffy gold held at Brands.

Happy TT Thursday everyone!

Here's my initial thoughts on the Ioniq:

• Tilts more than the Titanic
• If you want to make the corner then you need to start braking yesterday
• Feels like you're driving in slow motion yet weirdly on the edge of losing control
• My rental came with massive dents all the way along the side panels

Other than that an awesome little racer 🙄

Tried last TT with the "fun" EV car. Did one lap, red, bye ! That thing is heavy as a steamboat.

Saw that it is the car for a special event in the upcoming weeklies too 😩

After that went back to Monza to do a very mediocre 10 laps stint. No improvement, best lap is very close to best so far, other than that bad medium and no sector improvement.

I said I wasn't going to frustrate myself with Monza.....

I couldn't resist my Button Liveried BAR and driving it....oh my goodness in VR it's an awesome experience.

In to sliver with it now probably not going to be able to gold it, just wish I'd have tried it sooner!

I will be darned!

For an appliance, this refrigerator actually drives pretty nice. The GT-R we drove here last time was an absolute turd compare to this.

Yeah this thingy is heavy and has no brakes, but it balances itself pretty well in the corners. Just brake early and shift the weight accordingly, it will rotate nicely for point and scoot.

Not the best 1st sector, but I will take sub 37s 🙈🙈

What an absolute 💩 of a car.

Eh, I'm not tryharding the TT's these months as I got bored of it and I'm not really enjoying it anymore – minus the rare interesting combo. Still, a lot of GTP-ers are showing great improvement 👏

And us down scoreboard terrestrials appreciate it. It gives us a chance to pretend we are fast.

Belay that, I just checked, you not trying hard has you at 1st on the GTP Scoreboard at Monza, 18th in the world. We should all be able to not try like that.
Great time, BTW.

No need to pretend 😊 We do it for fun and for free, so any effort is fast by casual player standards.

That's a rare interesting combo exception – that's the best I can achieve there.

Weekly update

Comfortable Gold in the Testarossa

Frustrations at Monza- jostling between being too cautious and being slow or too aggressive and overcooking it at one of three chicanes

Quick go at the Nurb with the obese toaster, out-braked myself on the opening chicane 3 times in a row... closed the game down.
(that ***** for another day)

 

[Pilot625]

Are you guys off the gas completely in the turns with the 90s F1 car? Thing is so twitchy.

 

[Childe Roland]

I think this 2.88% should hold but this TT is funny enough to keep trying to improve.

I have some plans for the weekend , my target is getting into the top 1000 and that requires to shave half second of my actual time (my optimal is just 2 tenths so far)
