My new best time was set with manual gears and steering at 580°. After trying multiple steering angles, 580 felt the best between being too twitchy and being slow enough for smoothness but being fast enough to catch slides. As to the gearbox, manual is faster but it took lots of try over auto (in VR) as in VR you have you look too much at the steering wheel to figure optimal gear shift and that can compromise your lines.
Not an issue in VR. Guess that is one advantage to VRs lack of split information.
In flatscreen the answer is no. In the past, I literally put tape on my screen to hide it 🤣

I'm getting such mixed messages from everyone's attempts so far, I don't know what to expect. 😄
I'll probably try my initial run later today if not by tomorrow. I've been enjoying my foray into this week's Daily Race A with the Lancer, especially with a handful of regulars in it that I've encountered that have been providing very good and exciting races between us.

Hello there (pesky lightweight thing)
That's one of those TTs I play one session and I'm done.
Edit (CSA strong and ASM on, so I could fight the full lock issue. ABS weak, TCS 0, talent also 0)

Alright, I think I had a pretty successful Friday evening session.
After breaking into 49.3 territory yesterday at Brands Hatch I was able to cut away another tenth, now sitting at ... 🥁
Comfortably in the top 100 for the moment, but it's only the second day so this definitely won't hold. I think I can go faster still, which is a weird thing to say considering I am only two tenths away from a top 10 position. This one's just crazy tight
Running CSA strong as I usually do, however for this one you guys who don't usually use it might want to try it, too. Out of the five fastest available replays, four have CSA on. Haven't seen that before, but it makes sense seeing how incredibly nervous the steering can be. I also set the angle to 540 degrees on the wheel to soften some of that nervousness. It's quite enjoyable now with that setup!
And then I decided I needed to do something at the Nordwand because my lap was slowly but steadily being pushed out of the top 100. I dreaded going back a bit because my previous PB of 1:14.872 was a hard piece of work, but I actually got on pace again pretty quickly. New PB is not even four hundredths faster ...
But that was good enough for 25 positions in the global ranking 🥳, and my friends board also looks much nicer now. So at the risk of poking the bear ... your move @330_D @bliprunner @Gomario JSP 🤣
Have a great weekend everyone!
