Check this out. It's well explained how to do it. Since you like driving the Beetle, it may help.


THis is really good, I have seen this guy in my rooms at times. Man 2 full seconds up on me at Seaside, damn. Useful that it is the beetle too, though I see he is gear spamming but it is what it is. Interesting note to arc the COD and not straighten, interesting approach.

Just remember Cyrus is doing off meta as he is fast enough in the metas…

He’s a very very fast time trial guy, so his lines aren’t always mine or yours so don’t follow like for like until you are doing consistent times etc Just framing things.
 
It’s really annoying when you drop 2/10s on your lap….

I wonder if @TechnoIsLove is happy now that I'm ahead of him by more than 0.001 seconds 😊😂😂

Some vids of a race I did yesterday - started 7th, finished 3rd...

Three overtakes in one corner! Taking a ghostly risk



Lick it and send it into 3rd place



Love the racing on this wide open beast of a track!

Seeing that the meta at Kyoto is now the Citroën, when 2 BoP ago was the Lambo, I'm wondering how do aliens know wich is the meta for any given track and category. I mean, surely no one has the time to test all cars. Is there some "stat tool" like that for CoD to know wich is the meta or, if some likes, "the fastest ttk"?
I test not all cars, but honestly like 90 %. I leave out the m4, swift, toyota 86. It mostly takes half a lap to know if it's rubbish.

Bot really, but I am impressed - nice lap sir! Liked driving the GT but only manage to make it out of the chicane after sector 2 facing backwards 🤣
 
My fastest through the chicane this week, was in the R8evo. I lifted shortly as i was steering in and had a nice relatively straight line through it. Didn't touch anything and when i was able to look at the speedometer i was at 190km/h. That's good not great, but felt "safe" and repeatable.

I noticed that the long stretched curves (Catalunya the long right turn 3 and now race B both long left) became easier for controller users.

I liked race B a bit more last time, cause we were allowed to tune our cars. And i think the McLaren became a meta in the second half of the week last time. (but my memory isn't really trustworthy)

Big fan of the Z4 as well. Mine is a Jägermeister with the big grill in front
Lol at myself. Took the gtr for a spin yesterday. 210kmh through Cod, still lifted quickly, it just makes more sense to me than taking the risk. Besides that, the gtr is like 0,5oo slower per lap with hard tires compared to medium tires.
I drive it with +3 break b. And tcs only at the 2nd to the last corner.
I haven't much time for qualifying or messed up cause I was tired. But i am sure to be close to Dr A by tomorrow. The races yesterday felt (for the first time ever) like seal clubbing...
I still dont get this meta strategy. We all remember, how the supra was practically unbeatable, now it's a runner-up at best. If i were responsible at Toyota (marketing?) i would be knocking on some doors, down the tokyo street, at the PD/Sony office... My first car was a civic, (yes because i couldn't effort an wrx) but it had to be definitely a car from gran turismo..
.
😞
But nowadays,...... They just don't build them like they used to, anyways, or does anyone feels the same as in the late 90's seeing a supra on the street? Look there is a audi sqxtR50 suv with as much horsepower as his weight and it's as ugly as expected.
