A few more in the bank........

arora 15.281 / 34.507

All's I need's is a good dunlop curve and I get close to my limit I think. Pretty fun Jake, you where right, does not take to long which is good for this lazy old codger ;)
 
I put in a few laps:

T1: 15.351
T2: 34.741

I've seen a 1 tenth faster T2 with more than a 1 tenth slower T1, but it is hard to redo it. :(

ran about 5 laps without tcs and sucked ass :p Turned it on and found myself feeling like a stick in the mud...

Glad you made it here Erik! TCS works well here, so it doesn't bother me to use it. Although I wish PD made the car better... it's better in real life and would certainly not wheelspin like that.

updated all new splits 👍

Give me a show of hands to racers who have driven this car before...

Good combo, Jake.
No TCS as I found I'm quicker without it and it really slows me down going through the Dunlop curve.

Glad you are liking it! I enjoyed running with you the other night at Suzuka, that one on one race was great, just like a PR. 👍

Splits added to board

This looks like a fun one, Jake, and getting plenty of action. 👍

Looking forward to giving this a try now that I'm home from my trip. Should be back in here later this week with some splits. :)

How was the beer festival? did you go on your own? I would have needed someone to guide me back to the hotel every night. :dopey:

:cheers:

The fest was great. I went with a friend who also goes every year, and we always select a hotel within stumbling distance. This year, we managed to get a room at the Hyatt right across the street. :dopey:

And it was a great one this year, there are 4 sessions, and we had some other people come along to 2 of the sessions.

Now I'm back home and drying out for a few days. :sly:

:cheers:

EDIT: First ones for me -

EDK -------- 15.418 / 34.849
 
^^ cool, I added you to the board. you can delete posts, nice mod feature... :)
 
Ran this when you first put it up but forgot to post splits last week. :dunce:

15.582
35.178

I'm hoping to find time to run a few more laps before weeks end, too much real life s$*! to do this week.:grumpy:

updated your splits. 👍 did you get your garage wired?
 
This track has always been my least favorite - but with this car it is really fun 👍

For only having run one short session I'm shocked that my times are competitive

Thanks Jake.👍

No! not yet. Not having a good week here, real life getting in the way. I never did get a chance to dig that trench, or even start it. Maybe things will ease up and I can get back to normal, whatever the heck that is.:indiff:

Fun combo to drive. Wish we had more of it. Kevin's Beamer series is fun as well, wish I had more time but at the moment let us just say the fecal matter is passing through the high speed air handler. :ouch:

Technically I merged my posts, but yeah, it's kind of cool. :dopey:

I ran another session tonight and got a lap I'm happy with, so I'm going to submit now. Final splits -

15.245 / 34.417

I did not use TCS, and I learned to keep the car off of MOST of the rumbles. Just not telling you which ones are which. :sly:

By the way, I really like the banner you made for this one Jake. 👍 Totally sweet. :drool:

And I wouldn't mind a few more Z car spotties if they are like this. :D

:cheers:
Kevin
 
I have updated the board, looks like I have to grab another .1 or so to keep up!

EDIT: just had to hit this again after falling down...

15.132 / 34.193 (picked up .4 at the line)

TCS then no TCS then TCS... :sly: I think there's another .2 in it, but I would need a little luck for that.

today is the deadline, I hope everyone submits!!
 
Sorry Jake, I thought of it this morning but then got carried away with the guitar, which I do alot these days :crazy: I'm guessing you have not recieved many subs which is lame, I know what it takes to put one of these on and I'm hopefull that your gratious extention will help us all get the lead out and send a time. All who have splits posted surely have laps and times saved so lets see em 👍

Personally I'll run about 10 laps or so this afternoon and send you a time when I'm done. Hope others will join in.

:cheers:
 
9 out of 16 have submitted so far so it's not too bad but I hope the rest will pipe in for Sunday. 👍

good point, :D Well if those that have already sub'd can choose to resubmit if they please as not to give a time advantage. 👍
 
2078TM
My apologies for not having paid enough attention to the deadline

Submitting now
Click to expand...

also Quilty to not paying enought attention to DL,
my apologies.
 
I was giving it another go thurs night and didn't get a faster clean lap in. Was busy all day yesterday and didn't get a chance to clean things up, so I'm submitting my first attempt's time now. Sorry for the delay!
 
I'll be subing from my original session, from the splits I posted. Went back to it for a few more but got tied up with the lady and other stuff.

Cheers all and GL 👍
 
Hey All,

I wanted to thank everyone for stepping up and taking this on. Congrats to all for submitting too, I thought it was going to be a half-empty board this time. (or is it half-full?) :sly:👍

Results are up on Post #2 :)

:cheers:
 
Grats jake and 2078TM for podiums. Had a feeling I did the ending right this time as I beat my 2nd fastest time by .2 during my session. :)

If you need replays, I'll have time tomorrow, been studying about 70 hours this week on a history exam I was supposed to be studying for throughout the semester. :dopey: So bored.
 
Congrats to the jmgyro for the win and Jake and Bill for the remaining podium spots.
Nice run from you too Kevin, really close times up there.

Just wanted to see this again. :sly:
