What's the last day for Laguna Seca? Sorry I couldn't find in here.

Looks like any time I get for GT for the next few days will be spent grinding credits to get the McLaren before it goes. I'd prefer the road car but I will never shell out for that so I'm going to get this and call it done. Plus 13 yr old me's #1 dream car was a longtail road car - still have the UT 1/18 model on the shelf.

I cranked out a bunch of CE's last night and got me most of the way to 10mil so I might find time yet. One of the CE's I did was Laguna Seca. Weirdly got gold on almost all sectors first try and then struggled to gold the one-lap. T2 brake zone was a mystery, such random results I thought maybe something was wrong with my pedals. T3 and 4 were a crapshoot with the way race cars seem to tend to understeer any more. Solidly reminded me of how Laguna Seca is all fun and games until you're actually trying to improve your lap times. Factor in that I'm at the point now where I wish the GR86 never f***ing existed and seeing one makes me angry and I'm not looking forward to this :(

Sorry for the delay for picking a track, but since there will be an update, I think Race 5 TA should be on Watkins Glen. It'll be in tomorrow's update, and it's also a track I'm not very good at and avoid in games that has it. So it'll force me to actually go on it. lol

Well fuck... you're at least 3 sec faster than my last night's fastest laps.

Try it again and focus on the corner before the corkscrew and the corkscrew itself. I probably picked up 2 seconds on those two corners (don't think I really improved on the other corners, probably because I struggle more with the corners I mentioned).

Flying off corkscrew lol jk

Most shaving points were first corner & first corner after corkscrew. Both I wasn’t taking the correct line & loosing more speed &/or going off-road. When I was able to get the proper line/brake, I shaved about 1~1.3 secs

Alright, Race 4: Laguna Seca is over. Results are:

1st Gen
Laz 1:41.495
ichi 1:43.141

2nd Gen
Laz 1:39.703
ichi 1:40.762

This will put Laz to 1st place on total points for both gen. Good job!
1st Gen
Laz 20 pts
ichi 16 pts

2nd Gen
Laz 19 pts
ichi 15 pts
fredzy 11 pts

Race 5 is at Watkins Glen. Time is June 25th ~ July 1st. After that, we’ll take quick break & start TA again (July 8th).

Might as well do the long course layout.

fredzy 06-25-2022 04:47 PM

Oh no I thought today was last day for Laguna! Whoops!

fredzy 06-25-2022 05:19 PM

Had to at least see how it would go. I Lazzed out pretty hardcore and got to a good time in 4 laps, including a wreck lap lol. But rules are rules! More lessons learned!
