Thanks! I thought that turn would be easier since I'm mirroring the demonstration from the circuit experience. I was looking forward to see your video haha, I know I could shave off at least .3 seconds of my lap time.



It is a very demanding track and I don't like the fact that I have to go into 2nd so often since its is so short.

Did, I think, 5 laps in the street cars, and not sure how many in the GT300.

Time to check out that fox survival game.

NoHaveMSG 07-09-2023 03:17 PM

I had a migraine yesterday and didn’t do my laps till today. I did 4 in each car. Ran the GR4 car too, man I suck in that thing but it is still surprisingly fast.

1st Gen 1:53.487
2nd Geb 1:50.730
GT300 1:30.800

I struggled with the 2nd gen for some reason. I'm sure I can improve my times, but this is one of the tracks that I just can't get the flow down on. Like in my laps, I would be really ahead of my ghost, and then I mess up. One lap I was really behind my ghost, and then I caught up by the end of the lap. Not sure if it was just a 2nd gen thing, or just me. Lol

I struggled with all of them this track. Really need to get T3, T4, and T12 right to get the run on long acceleration zones.

Pretty sure those are my problematic areas, in addition to a couple more corners.

A bad exit on any of those 3 can cost you several tenths. Especially T12, such a long run from there to T1.

spcmafia 07-10-2023 11:56 PM

Man, this track. Its so mentally demanding. I know I have much pace on the 2nd Gen and the GT. Is just, you either perfect every turn or you don’t.
1st Gen: 1:54924
2nd Gen: 1:51.784

@Kaotic Lazagna You won the 5 "Winner Takes All" points. You may choose them for one of the classes.



@NoHaveMSG As the winner of 2 of the 3 classes, you may choose a track to hold this week's event.

By the way, I think the engraving of the Trophy should say "Such League. Much Fast. Many Skill. Wow"

NoHaveMSG 07-12-2023 12:28 PM

Randomizer gave me Sardegna Road. That is an oddball one, lets go full track.

I basically have to do all my laps today or tomorrow morning. I am camping and won't be home till late Sunday.

spcmafia 07-12-2023 12:31 PM

If my math is correct, we are 8? races in
Miyabi, Barcelona, Willow, High Speed Ring, Nords, Mount Panorama, Interlagos, Autopolis.



4 Races to go!

You don't sound excited lol.

I've only driven it for the circuit experience in a group 1 car I believe. It was actually pretty fun layout. Very fast and flowy.

Oh haha. I am excited. I think I have very little experience, I now there is a heavy left handed turn towards the end. Im going to hold off to do it until my new wheel gets here on Saturday haha. I wrote the last message pretty quick because Im in the middle of a big project at work.

I'll apply those 5 points to the 2nd gen class. Lol. The 1st gen class is really just to see how the lower PP 86 can keep up. Hahaha

I know! That quick transition from left and right can be brutal.

Did more laps than usual since I haven't raced on the track in a while. The turn with the cathedral and the top right corner is tripping me up. Might be able to get faster times, but might be too lazy to try. Hahaha.

spcmafia 07-14-2023 10:16 AM

Ugghhhhh, that is almost a full second. I know the quick transition from left to right I need to trail brake a little more and then the turns when you see the stop sign might be places where I could gain some time. But is a big ask lol.

My first lap was a 2:10. I kept slowly getting quicker and quicker. I felt like I never got a good lap as I was always gaining and losing time with my ghosts. I was never constantly getting quicker. I still don't know when to brake and how to take those two turns I mentioned, so I'm definitely losing a lot of time there. Wish I can give you some pointers, but considering I need some myself, I don't think I'd be qualified to do that.

RToyo86 07-15-2023 10:42 AM

I wanted to try this. Nothing official since I forgot to screenshot it. managed to grab 2.07.55 with gen 1.

Had the makings of a 2.06 lap but couldn't put it together.

spcmafia 07-15-2023 09:35 PM

I'll try to pop on tonight. I didn't have time last week before I left and I was too destroyed from camping when I got home Sunday afternoon to get on.

NoHaveMSG 07-18-2023 03:55 AM

Struggled with this one. Ran the first gen, took a break, ran second gen and felt a lot better so I took another stab at gen 1.

What are your brake settings on your Fanatec? I find myself actually slower on this new setup lol. I think its mostly because the pedals keep sliding but the brake pedal is waaaaaay less sensitive than the G29. I really have to step on it.

I’m running standard configuration. You get used to it. The Logitech pedals, if I remember correctly, the brake doesn’t move much. Once you get a hang of it I think it is easier, more travel to modulate the brake. Like playing a shooter on a big mouse pad.

It does take some time to get used to it, I had to configure it for 80% of travel. It just feels a little unrealistic because I've never driven a car with that much brake travel.

It is a bit much. The load cell pedal is a good upgrade. I've gotten used to it so I don't notice it so much anymore.

Coming to the realization that racing rigs is the equivalent of car parts. Once you get into cars, you realize how many different "upgrades" there is for it.

PC is 10X worse. You should see all the 3rd party mods for ACC, AMS, ACC ect.

Oh I know lol. When I first built my PC, it opened a gateway drug to aaaaallll the parts out there, and I ended spending a stupid amount of money on my setup. Then there was AC, and the introduction to mods. I ended up giving up on AC because it is hard to keep up with the many settings you have to download in order to enjoy the wide arrange of mods.
