Good runs for me right now. 12 laps in, very good time.

As someone who's had one Citroen invite - in April 2022, before I realised quite how the invite system worked - I will not be participating in this time trial until next week when one of the most obviously terrible pieces of game design imaginable is finally rectified after three and a half years.

This is a much politer version of this post than I'd really like to make.

Rental cars are available. And - as in real life - quicker.
 
Morning folks,

What a beautiful track Maggiore is, it still is one of my favorites, it's definitely not the easiest track but it just flows so good.
With cars without grip it's so much fun but so hard 😂 every slide does cost a lot of time.

Had a little better last sector here but a average S1, had multiple .8xx but I'm still very inconsistent on the whole lap except for T1 and T2 😂😂

So ...verdict after today, I like it, but still think it would be way better on softs, it's just to much of a slidefest

I tried CSA on the pad on it but I was actually slower with it, except for the righthander uphill before the S'es, So ABS weak, rest off seemed better

Hey guys,

After a long absence, I'm back again. I actually wanted to start racing again at the beginning of the year, but once again, life got in the way.
For about two weeks now, I've had a little more time for GT again.
The new TT is really tricky, but somehow also fun. I still need to play around with the settings a bit. Currently, I'm driving on ABS Normal as usual, but many have now switched to weak. I'll try that out in the next few days. Maybe that will help me minimize understeer in the last corner.
My fastest lap is currently 1:24.882.
I'm sure I can shave off another 3 tenths if I hook up a lap.

Morning!

Whoop whoop 🥳🥳, 24' goal achieved!!

Although its a whole second from te top 🙄😱😂 I'm still happy 😂
Had a very bad S1 and way to much wheelspin on throttle at the righthander uphill but last sector was better, should be a tenth or so left on the table but it's just to slippery 😂😂, and a big workout on the pad.

Got more consistent though and alot of laps into the 24,9.



See ya!
 
Hey guys,

This morning I tried out ABS weak. It doesn't feel dramatically different, but I was able to minimize understeer, especially in the last corner.
I was able to improve my time in the last sector by another tenth of a second. Unfortunately, I lost half a tenth of a second in the second sector compared to my previous fastest lap, so I only improved minimally to 1:24.844.
If I can put my absolute best sector times together, a 1:24.6 is definitely possible.

Happy Sunday everyone. Really enjoying the Citroen event - I think I'd won the car for some event or wheel of death spin after a daily marathon, but hadn't driven it before, which is a shame as it's a really fun car to throw around in a sort of 'controlled hustle' kind of way. Nice 25 lap stint this morning saw a continual improvement in my best and in my optimal. Best lap yesterday was a 1:25.65, and I'm now over 4-tenths quicker (still ABS weak, no CSA or TC as usual) :cheers:

Jesus, 24th and not even below 1%...
 
Tidgney was talking about a 1' 26.7xx, so I got myself a 26.536 lap... but...

I had a feeling that 508 hp with ‘medium sports tyres’ would appeal to our ‘friend’ Ebrahim...😂😂

and just now, I see that we're at 26.437... grrrr 😡 😂😂

but luckily, thanks to ‘Black Friday’, I was able to find a 26.280 lap... second-hand but still in good condition...😂😂
I think I'm safe, but there are still 10 days left..

so I'm going to go back and try to get closer to 1'26.000... 🤔 :cheers:
