I gave up on my ghost. I hide my ghost plus keep the center gauge part as section time to keep me more focused

As a rule I tend to avoid going down to 2nd gear in this car (2nd gen.) I only do at the first hairpin on this track. Really not sure the best way through the esses or the last 2-turn complex. I’ve got over half a second faster optimums between those two areas but I’m not sure what I did.

Alright, did 6 laps. Got a better time than my last one on the 5th lap and decided to do one more and got an even better time. This session I made the most improvements on the first half, but then lost time on the second half (started losing advantage gap over my ghost).

For some reason it seems like any kind of sliding kills your time on this track for some reason. We're you sliding less???

Meh

There were only a couple places where I had to be careful with traction. I guess maybe that long 4-corner complex I probably drifted too much. I usually try to hit the first curb, miss the second then hit the other two but I never hit that target once with the GR86.

I'll see if I can squeeze in a few laps around lunch, otherwise I'm beat!

I saw the kids were playing GT so I went for it. Got it despite their presence! I get what you’re saying about sliding, seems like once the car gets into that regime it’s done. Slow and steady keeps you outta that through the esses and 4-apex

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-12-2022, 12:41 PM

Nice. I know I have quite a bit of time left to be gained (pretty sure I can break into the 1:49s), but unless I get back in time later, you'll have me beat.

fredzy · 08-12-2022, 12:49 PM

No need to be in a hurry!

I really wanted to break into the 49's, had one lap where I was up over 0.4 sec on this time and scrubbed it away bit by bit in the second half so I had to call it.

Yeah, same. I was .6 ahead of my ghost, and some how lost most of it.

So you can still submit times now and I can not because it`s 7:52am Saturday.
This SUCKS!

True. But I don’t really care to have a last laugh. Just lap around to see if I can beat Laz lol 8 out 9 times, I can’t beat him even though I was the last person posting the lap time.

iirc Laz lives in Cali? So he have the last say, but honestly last 9 races he was usually the first one to post his lap & most often he stay in the first place. Of course fredzy or I might beat him here & there, but it doesn’t matter who or when they get the lap time, fastest lap time will stay in the top.

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-12-2022, 11:41 PM

Yes, in Cali. But just got back from the tuner and having my birthday sushi dinner. So probably won't do another session.
