Ran some more laps and frustrating ones at that with most of my errors occuring on lap 3 :crazy: 2 fast laps and 1 slow seemed to be my way for today :guilty:

anyway after a good 90 mins + today I have a reasonable clean save with these splits ..

21.166 / 42.047
21.200 / 41.917
21.153 / 41.860

Thats about me for now and will try and get another few laps in before the deadline! I am losing about .6 off my ideal time if I could get all 3 laps to match my hotlap ghost :grumpy:

Cheers for the mental torture Sjaakie ;) ... t'was fun 👍
 
Finally, this is the type of thing I will be looking forward to when I start playing again. Something more than single laps.👍

holl01, I would love to see your replay when you win this week.

Seeing as the splits of Mr Persistence are a bit off of holl01, I look forward to sometime in the future getting back into this game.
 
Go for it Mike.

I can't access it at the moment. ("Cannot Find Server")

Anyway three new splits for div3.

21.466 - 43.240
21.517 - 43.124
21.612 - 43.110

Can't seem to get three consecutive laps under 43.xxx.
I hit 21.231 & 42.688 but not in three 'clean laps'.
Could I do it again? Could I hell!
Although I did knock off nearly 1.5 secs total time last night. :)
 
this is captain slow reporting in:

22.530 - 46.226
22.761 - 45.631
22.123 - 44.712

spot the progress? :) elas, these are my final hours before the big hollies so not much uptime here :nervous: maybe this evening another go and then the screen turns all black for 3 weeks 👍
 
new time:
21.229 - 42.051
21.175 - 41.896 (my record lap time) 👍
21.155 - 42.137 (too nervous, too careful, lost a couple of tenths) :nervous:
 
Welcome in Div2 DJ. :)

Nice times from both you and Sjaak. 👍

My first session gave:

21.441 - 42.780
21.278 - 42.695
21.553 - 43.136

Great race and interesting concept, Sjaak. 👍

After a low tech week in the Norwegian mountains, it's great to be back on track. :D
 
Hmm.

21.436 :( / 42.488 :) / fair :indiff:
21.564 :( / 42.599 :) / fair :indiff:
21.501 :( / 43.079 :grumpy: / fair :indiff: (but T2>Lx consistency :) )

Can't get back to consistent 21.3xx at the front, but finally found the knack through the centre section.
 
I was very pleased with the continuous improvement from lap to lap in this run...
0'21.675/0'42.882
0'21.566/0'42.661
0'21.562/0'42.467
 
Another quick session:

21.403 - 42.505
21.456 - 42.389
21.311 - 42.404

A little faster and a lot more consistent. :D
 
A little faster and a lot more consistent. :D

Fast enough to shoot you from the bottom to the top of div2! 👍

I'm going for a 'long' session tonight. Hopefully shave a bit more off. :nervous:
 
I'd like to improve my time but I won't be able to play anymore during this week. :guilty: I'm going on holidays and I will not race next week either. If my replay is requested, I'll send it when I return. Submitting time...
 
I haven't seen Sphinx for a while now,I hope he is enjoying some sun elsewhere in Europe,:) so
Please,send the results from week 118 to Mr P and Sphinx.

Ron will be the back-up ,just incase,you never know 👍

Reminderrrrrrrrrrr :)



Hi Niels,nice times :cool:
 
When coming around the big right sweeper before straight and start line. Stay to the left and keep 2 left tires on the grass and 2 right tires on asphalt all the way down the straight. It does make you go faster and should not. Doing this on all three laps will net a better time.

As Mr P stated it is very silly and incorrect physics.

hmm.. but wouldn't that ruin your entry in to turn 1 after the S/F line and consequently the hairpin with lateral forces. i.e. out-in-out, instead of in-in-wayyy out :scared: and thus forcing you to the inside line of the hairpin as entry and then hello! sand pit :)

anyways, I hard time with a good consistency of results because i seem to be always in a different position to attack each turn on each lap.

0'22.013/0'44.259
0'21.776/0'43.625
0'21.928/0'43.542

this will do for now will come back with better results later.
 
I'm in with:

21.287-42.084
21.233-42.040
21.260-42.498


Completely bombed the tight left before T2 on lap 3. Very tough for me to maintain momentum there for some reason.
 
Last try:

21.300 - 42.473
21.384 - 42.595
21.476 - 42.495

and three final laptimes with 1 tenth difference.:)

Also something weird happend.
I have two saves with the same end time but done with a blue and a black colored car and a four day difference.
 
New splits:

21.444 - 42.792
21.580 - 42.954
21.407 - 42.877
 
I finally arrived back home @ 2:30AM and got up for some lapping sessions at the Valley this morning. But no splits yet. Trying to get a quick time and some consistency here is hard to come by for me.... Great car on one of the best tracks. 👍
 
Oeff guys,
This is a hard one to me, i practiced tonight for the first time but it isn't easy.
So far the splits are around T: 0.21.5 and T2:43.4
It's not fast enough but i have to find some time to practice.

Div 2

I hope to have more time tomorrow because I truly biffed the final turn on lap 3 :yuck: :dunce: :ouch:
 
Slight improvement for me, but it's not looking like I'll be able to catch Sjaak & Niels. Might have some time tomorrow morning, but then I'm off to Mid-Ohio for a couple days. :)
0'21.497/0'42.612
0'21.670/0'42.662
0'21.666/0'42.579
1'04.833/2'07.853

Don't be too sure. :dopey: I'm apparently losing a lot in the finish and is a full second behind Sjaak at the finish line. :eek:
 
No way, three laps rewards consistency, and is closer to an actual race simulation than the one hot lap we usually do. It's a fantastic combo and I'm looking forward to running.

So far I've had a blast with all the races you've set up Sjaak, keep up the good work. 👍

I'm very new overhere just my third week but i have to say Sjaak you are making every week a beautiful race and with so many people you cannot please everyone.
So keep up the good work and thanks for doing this.
