Cool beans, may give this a go, but got a favor to do for Jack first 👍

Happy Birthday, Jerry. :cheers:

First session:

20.278
35.661
51.213

Nice combo. :D
 
Jerry is celebrating his anniversary? Congrats Mr. Steward, and may you live long, healthy and happily :dunce: :lol:

First splits - great thrill to try & keep the throttle down as long as you dare in the long right hand sweepers and at the end of the long straight!

20.085 - 35.704 - 51.232

One fresh leaderboard coming right up ...

EDIT new leaderboard initialized

EDITEDIT forget my splits, I discovered I selected the other Pennzoil GT-R that is also yellow (Zexel '01) and has less power but way more downforce and only 990k at -10%. Please look carefully before racing and posting your splits or you'll be making my mistake :scared:
 
Not much time available this week to run. Fish are biting real goooood up here now. :) This may be it for me this week unless we get some bad weather.:grumpy:

21.059
37.168
52.839

Good luck all!
 
I also started out with the Zexel. Luckily I discovered it when I double checked the weight and power figures. :dopey:
 
My first times:

T1 - 0'20.051
T2 - 0'35.565
T3 - 0'51.258

Amazed how much time you loose though the last corner if your a cars length wide, I think my best is nearly 3 tenths lol.

I've seen a 0'19.8xx so I'll try agian over the weekend 👍
 
I have been busy lately but I'm gonna give this week a go. Some first splits after my first session:

T1: 20.040
T2: 35.547
T3: 51.206

Lots of time to take...
 
First splits for the week. I'm using 350 gearing now but still unsure about it. I started higher and I'm going back towards default. I believe turn 1 is my worst spot on this track.
Thanks for the fun combo, Jerry. 👍

20.243
35.823
51.376
 
Only a couple of tenths faster at T3, but 0.8 at the line.

20.097
35.547
51.002

Topspeed 320km/h
 
Still working on turn 1 and the gearing, 340 for this session and it took a while to get use to the different shifting points. They seem quite awkward at 340 but I like to give it a session after any changes in gearing. On my next session I will try the 320 Neils used.

Like last week there is no way that I have found to take the last corner w/out a lift or braking. I think if its driven correctly I could take it at 150mph or more, just trying to stay above 140 now. My best t1 in a clean lap has been 20.109. Very little improvement at t3 but just over .2 sec at the line.

20.180
35.861
51.352
 
You look pretty lonely up there Jack, I'll see if I can shunt you a little this weekend 👍 prolly not tho :scared: u sly dawg.

Jerome
 
I'm submitting my 15 min session cause I need to go golfing now and my weekend is booked with wedding plans. See you guys at the finish!

T1 - 19.978
T2 - 35.342
T3 - 50.944
Final - Kinda stunk but o well :)

Jerome
 
Update.. :)

T1 - 0'20.065
T2 - 0'35.406
T3 - 0'50.877
 
I ran some last night and came up with these...

19.955 / 35.145 / 50.774

I had a 50.68 but over cooked the final bend :dopey: I think I can gain maybe .2 more at the line.

This is a DS2 combo for sure. Not good for the wheel but enjoy the race, kenny. :) I have a 51.102 and can see about .2 more in it but the last turn is a tricky one. Hard to keep it above 140 for me to. I'll give it another session. You might want to try the controller, but for me it's a foreign thing...

20.017 / 35.570 / 51.096
 
I just returned from the East Coast on Friday night, so I have some catching up to do on this one. :crazy: Should have some splits up soon............
 
Top speed 320:
19.913
35.153
50.621
...and a bad last corner, but I've submitted this time anyway.

Thanks for that, George. I was only kidding, but now I willl have to be sure and make it out for another LAN this summer. 👍

I just received a Luxy lesson from Steven, so you now have one more updaterer in you presence. I've added Jake, Carlos and George, along with my own splits -

20.159
35.720
51.261

Looks like my T1 can still use some work. :crazy:

Going back for more now.

:cheers:

Update:

T1: 20.075
T2: 35.587
T3: 51.317

I can see some more improvement, my previous ghost (same session) was faster at every T but this run has much better last turn.

Great to have you on board, Kevin 👍 thanks for sharing in the WRS churns. You might also want to add a link to Luxy in your post each time you made an update, which also works to let participants add new posts for new splits rather than updating older posts.
:bowdown: for your help.
