Time Trial Discussion

Gradually getting faster at Monza, the Gold time looks more in reach now I've chopped off a second over the last day and am now in the high 1:25's. I've focused on getting on the power earlier across the board and trying to get some flow through 2nd Variante but I'm still slow out of the 1st Variante (I don't know how @Tidgney is so fast out of there) and struggling to not hit the kerb at the 2nd Lesmo, well either that or run wide while trying to avoid the kerb. The rest of the lap seems relatively comfortable now, fingers crossed for more improvement

Less is more. Less braking, less throttle mid corner, less steering input, half throttle until you are straight straight. That helped me

Oh yesssss!!

I think I'm done with EV's for a while 😵‍💫

Scraped into the silver at Monza. Sure there's more speed but the kerbs, man..

The EV is a struggle, I got silver easily but not finding more time, need about 1.5 seconds sooooooooooo that's quite a bit.

I thought I might enjoy the Ioniq when I mapped the overtake button properly. Nope. I can't even get my optimals into the 36's. I have absolutely no clue what my car is going to do lap to lap going into the hairpin in sector 2. I swear I'll hit the brakes at the same spot 3 laps in a row with different results. One lap the car doesn't even come close to making the corner, the next I'm crawling around the inside bleeding time, and the following lap it will be perfect. And as bad as the final chicane is in just about any car, it feels even worse with this thing.

Good advice, thanks buddy, I'm trying to incorporate these elements into my driving whilst trying to undo 30 years of muscle memory playing a lot of arcade racers amongst a few sim racers

Switched to ABS Weak for minimal gain. All other aids as they were.

Annoying lumbering pig thing. 😅 🐷

Have you talked to your car? I mean been vulnerable and opened up to before you lap?

You need to be weak to be strong, talk to it and be open to what it says back, digest don't react just listen to it.

Enough of that rubbish, there is some funky braking stuff going on with that car. I can't put my finger on it but it has regen/self braking capabilities in the real ones (don't know about the N spec ones) but ignoring the normal road car crap brakes stuff it's not like them or the VGT things.

Obviously not excuses "cough cough" but that my tin foil hat!

And I suck
