Shout out to @El_Beardo for helping to frustrate me in this torture chamber, err time trial event...Missed my goal by .009.
I’m not frustrated at all.
LETS DO THIS MORE LMAO

Actually it’s been fun trying to find that sub 1 time...
Replay/setup are shared, very clean nowhere near a track limit...

Cheers

Just set a new best for me. But, I'm still struggling. Best of 1:01.484

Oh MAN!!!!

Awesome run though! Challenge is on!

 

[El_Beardo]

Spent a bit of time circulating Tsukuba. Best of 1:00.179

Edit: I might need to try again. I see the rules say 2 wheels on/inside the white line. Watching the replay I had 3 wheels inside the line for an instant, 4th wheel still touching the line.

I did that last night, at the right after the second hairpin.

Just set a new best for me. But, I'm still struggling. Best of 1:01.484

Got a video of the lap? More than happy to give pointers.

Great lap man!

I'll try to upload after work. Ran out of time last night.

Who will be the TPC Roger Bannister breaking the on minute barrier?

Who will be the TPC Roger Bannister breaking the on minute barrier?

I reckon @Mistah_MCA should be able to.

If nobody has broken it by the time I wake up on Friday, I'm going to tag a few aliens

@Mistah_MCA should be able to do it. 👍

 

[Redneckchef]

Apparently there is someone with a K' score of 100. Should take them about 5 minutes to blast it out. Would have to look up the name again on the kudosprime thread.

Using the stock car.

I tweaked the suspension a little bit tonight, this is what I was using for my best lap.

Going to tweak my setup, and see if we can shave another tenth or two.

This latest version is pretty good, I think I changed the ride height, rebound, camber and toe angle slightly from the previous version.

Awesome, we have someone under!

Now how to figure out to catch up.

Do you not find yourself under steering on power, with that 50/50 split?

 

[Pigems]

Do you not find yourself under steering on power, with that 50/50 split?

I would have thought so too, but no, not at all really with these diff settings. I hadn’t even thought to try all these settings with more power to the rears.

@El_Beardo & everybody else, here is that "hot" lap from last night. I feel like I can't get the car to rotate under acceleration. I have massive understeer that the bearded one alluded to.

 

[Pigems]

All views, in case it’s more helpful to some people that way.

 

[Groundfish]

BOOOOOOM
Nice work Roger! I mean @Pigems!
Nailed it!

 

[nuthunmuch]

Some more tuning tonight and I'm down to 1:00.067 and I didn't break the track limits this time!

This is equal parts challenging and frustrating searching for hundredths here and there.

I am not exactly lightning fast here, but I watched your lap and the only pointers I can give start with not dropping to 2nd gear. I think I picked that up from @Pigems as the scooby has tons of grunt as long as the turbo is on. Try to just feather things a touch more on that evil right handed after the left turn hairpin. Sliding anything there costs 3 or 4 tenths for the lap. I felt like something elseypu could try is more of a straight entry to the first turn. Like not straight down the straightaway but aiming more straight to the apex so you are almost cheating turn in and the car is halfway through the turn before you actually need to turn, you end up pretty much on the gas the second it starts to rotate.

Good luck, took me quite a few laps to figure some if those things out, and that last turn is continuing to drive me bonkers. Keep at it, safer than the dailies.

Yeah, and don't use @GOTMAXPOWER lap as a guide

 

[Kevstah2004]

1:02.477
Gonna take me some work to get into the 1:01.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Hey! I know I cut turn 7 but the rest of the lap is fine

If I find time I'll try another serious lap before the weekend. If I can get down to a 1:00.5 I'll be happy. I think being gentler with the steering will help with this car, because it's 4wd scrubbing the fronts is probably costing exit speed.

 

[The_Tullster]

Got a clean one under 1:02...
S1: 14.671
S2: 18.329
S3: 28.472
Lap: 1:01.472

 

[Pigems]

@iGoFast (Lester) You have any interest in trying this?

Or maybe @TRL LIGHTNING @Tidgney

 

[Groundfish]

So, this was the setup I was using to miss sub 1 by .009...Might be worth a try if you’ve hit a wall being that it’s a bit diff from @Pigems

More than one way to skin a cat
With this car, my way idea is cover minimum distance rotate mostly under braking try to get on the power very early, as early as possible on exit.

 

[El_Beardo]

Leaderboard should now be showing in the second post of this thread. Let me know if there's any issues.

 

[El_Beardo]

Or maybe @TRL LIGHTNING

Going from 0-100 real quick there, Pigems
