After an extra 45 minutes : 20.581 / 39.944.
Goal for tomorrow evening will be T2 under 39.800.

Yeah, we'll have enough of this then. Looks like I'm going to have to put in the hard yards this week.

@jase86: Just remember who taught you everything you know :p
 
First run (7 laps):

T1: 20.542
T2: 39.921

It's amazing how much time can be lost at one turn, this is going to require perfection to win.
 
I know these splits suck for me but...

T1-20.903
T2-40.883

It was only after six laps but I am gonna try Mr. P's write up to see how I do.

0'20.308 ~~~~~~~~~ 0'20.262
0'39.480 ~~~~~~~~~ 0'39.392

You need to stop, or else you're going to embarass us all......YET AGAIN!!! :crazy: :scared:
 
First splits, I can't remember the gearing I had (not that it matters with these splits) :)

T1: 20.557
T2: 39.960

I'll see if I can knock SHig off for the Div 1.5 title :D

He was quitting until someone went faster! Besides, what fun is it to gauge your time against a half hearted effort?!

Also, being so early in the week, and with four drivers within a tenth of each other, you can't just lay down and quit...

I say embarass me. School me. Show me. Teach me. Someday, I hope to be a video game driving god. For now, I suppose I'll have to settle for being a REAL driving god. :sly:

Looks like you've got me! That 0.008" is going to be hard to make up so late in the going.

That's it, I'm done for the week...

i thought i had a safe time, but holl01 beat me

and i wont stop till i beat him ahah

~~~ Ok just beat him :sly:

0'20.253
0'39.337

think i lost .020 on the final hairpin
 
Division 1.5! nice nice :)
Who is in that? :P

Well as for chasing my target.. aint happening... probably gonna have to settle with the time I've got!

T2: 39.788 was about the closest one i ever got to my record setting t2... :(

Maybe should get some massive warp engines on my vehicle or something! time travelling device?? :P

Week isn't over but ive hit the wall! all out of ideas... just that last corner, maybe... judging by the final time.. and t2 splits.. i SHOULD have gone 0.2 faster :(
meh.. i can't get everything right!

A ha!! I knew it. It's not SHigSpeed, it's Scott Speed!!! :D
 
Got these splits on second lap, haven't been able to better them in 20 laps.I've been horrible the last two weeks, looks like this week won't be any different.

20.838
40.842

And, with no disrespect to SHig, I doubt that Scott Speed would be cruising around in a 1992 Nissan Sentra.

Michael Schumacher used to drive a Ford Escort estate :lol:
 
I've been .2 faster at T1, so I *KNOW* I can run a sub 40 at T2 ...

Hit the left sweeper just before T2 all 'wrong' and suddenly left my ghost behind, lol ... must've bene hitting it all askew all this time.

T1: 20.687
T2: 40.147
 
Another hour run:

T1 - 20.343 👍
T2 - 39.522 👍

Not sure if I'll be able to improve on this. Hit the final hairpin pretty well IMO, didn't drop below 57 mph, someone correct me if this is slow! Happy with the lap overall, could have picked up another 0.1 in the first turn, MAYBE. The only other place I might have lost is in the left sweeper. Wait, scratch that, I KNOW I lost time there. Not gonna take it as well as the big boys though ;) . Might be done for the week tho, hit my goal.

@ Mr. P - Great write up man, really helped me out with that left sweeper, I wasn't even close before. Now knocked off another 0.5 from my old laptime, thanks to you 👍 . Keep up the good work in BC!

@ MS and Z - Come on boys! Get on it! Make me want to keep going, I only get better if I have to chase somebody :D

Scott won Red Bull's American Driver Challenge...where they were looking for the next Formula 1 American Driver. He was actually the 3rd driver for Red Bull's F1 team at both the Canadian and US Grand Prix's this year. He is currently a GP2 driver, and is the likely candidate for one of 4 Red Bull F1 drivers next year.
 
Looks like i'm running for top positions in Div 3. But I'm scared now. I don't have that max thing so i can't post replays..... :ouch:

Keep in mind i got the info from the unofficial leaderboard from this week. Also not manny Div 3 racers. What's up with that?
