Well, didn't get the chance to run the CSL again until today. Had been focused on this week's WRS challenge, but hopped back in the CSL after I got that out of the way and managed a 7'25.647.

Nice one!
Looks like I'll have to try to improve my time then!
I'll post here when I get the change - been very busy lately.
BTW, just out of curiosity: did you need many tries to get that time?
For me, anything below 7:27 is getting very challenging - you have
to start taking risks, and so you often slide off the track at some point of the lap.
Or is it just me?

Thanks! For me, it took ~5 laps of refining the line for that car/tire combination. But you have to think.. I had spent all week driving the 'Ring (albeit in a much more powerful car + R5 tires, but I learned new lines and techniques on pairing corners to acheive maximum exit speed for the straight bits), so it was like second nature when I hopped in the CSL almost. The braking points were about the only thing that threw me off a bit and still threw me in a few places on my most recent run, but the line always remained pretty consistent with both being FR setups.
