Time Trial Discussion

Great! You're not really far off the gold time. The WRX fits perfectly for this track and it's condition. It's actually better when there is a specified car instead of a Group 3/Group 4 challenge where you have to choose which car can give you the best performance and lap. How have you handled the last Sector, it is a time killer for me always. Never fails.

Best you take the last sector wide then drive into it using the 4wd to push the WRX to get pace, I can post a reply if it helps maybe later? Or try finding mine in game?

Yes, you can PM me a replay or what lines/braking points you took. And also noting what times you clock in for each Sector can help too, I can note and keep track of how I'm doing during each lap.

Yes of course will do, The biggest factors are the First hairpin and turns 9 and Last turn (10) where you have to get the most momentum and the grip enabled to push the wet 4wd grip forward to get pace in the subaru. @Tidgney video guide is very helpful also to chk your braking points and avoiding the line.

Much better stint at Alsace, improved a bit my best lap (-0.179s), optimal (-0.106) and some sector (S2 -0.264s and S3 -0.095), and medium (-0.464s)

still 0.5s to gold, at least.

Spoiler

Oh I forgot to mention... I used @Tidgney's ghost this time, @Pesselles' was too slow 😁

Last night hit a 1:51.347. I remembered to save the replay this time 😊 will attempt to post a link tonight for feedback, tips, and jokes/shenanigans always welcome of course 😋

I reached my goal! Best to all.

So this means you have a console again and you are timetrialing again?

Much better with TC1.
Will attempt to get into the 54's later this evening.
I have never used the 911 GT1 prior to this TT. Its quite a lovely drive.

I feel that the TCS is not as important on this combo.

For my part, it is briefly activated at the exit of T3 and in the last turn T13.

No, but my friend is letting me use his ps5 for the week. Then I'll have to go back home and be without mine until Christmas. They usually have big sales going on around Black Friday. Idk, maybe I should take a long break for a while. My family is more important right now. This will have to be my last post until then. Wish us the very best, (me and my mother). She's been really sick with this ovarian cancer the past 5 months.

Just a quick heads up from me: it's been a really busy week for me both work-related and personal, so I didn't have any chance to play, and this will likely continue for some more time. I'll certainly try out the new TT when it hits tomorrow, but probably not much more than that. I'm still around though, and hope to be able to jump back in on the action soon.

Happy lapping everyone

My seat time is very limited. Get in only about 100km in the evening. Resorted to TC as my throttle control is rusty as hell and it was the easy way out

My first stint was TC off. Second stint TC1. For my third stint this evening, I will turn it off and give it a go. I am now more familiar with the car and track. It is planted, just can get a bit squiggly if you mash that throttle.

i'm a little confused....

Nevertheless, good friend though if he let you stay over for a week and provides his PS5.
Take care of your mom, if that means taking a big break, yes no doubt.

We all are aware that she is sick, and ofcourse we all wish her the best.

Bought / sold / borrowed / returned more consoles in the last 6 months than most of us would have over our lifetime.

Doesn’t really add up to be honest and it looks like he’s getting called out in other parts of the forum. Repeatedly announces he’s leaving and taking long breaks to concentrate on family, only to be posting just as much every day and then borrowing consoles from people he knows.

Wish him the best but I think most have clocked on by now.

So it seems tomorrow... 😁

From the other " update arrives thread "

Seems fun, should be fun!

I feel you need to be a bit more aggressive. You are very very smooth which is awesome, but to start, I think you want to brake just a little later and harder and really try and get into third out of the corners. You can get in the throttle a little earlier than you are, the 4wd will pull you through, and try and use just a little bit more of the track... I'm sure others will have more detailed help but I do think it you start here you'll find the time you need. Good luck, sir!
