I was at 2.94% at Northern Isle. Didn't feel save at all.

Since I didn't want to dabble with the hand break and since it isn't that impactful I followed Naif's ghost which was the first I could find that didn't use it (39th currently).

I managed to improve using CSA strong and TC 0. Any TC cuts the power and I lose the rear anyways if I don't massage the throttle.

I can somewhat keep up under breaking but there is no way in the world for me to get the power down like the top players do.

Getting into the 18s is tempting but getting these seemingly small improvements is really hard here. I think I will leave it at that.

At Lago Maggiore I had only done a few Banker laps for silver so far.

After studying the lap @Gomario JSP just posted I hopped back on. After a few invalidated laps I got the hang of it. The most important revelation was taking the esses in 4th and maintaining a speed of about 155 kph through the second and 170 kph through the final S. This was huge for a nice flow through it. Thanks a lot for the upload. All of these by all you aliens here are much appreciated.

Been gone a while. If anyone wants the gory details message me. Anyway almost 5 weeks out of the hospital bed and pain at a manageable level, so I thought I would give the Citroen a try. I figured if I was really bad, at least I would have some time to try and get it together. Hence skipping the Hellcat, short lap and very little time left.
I see some of the aliens have returned. That should probably put me around 87th on the GTP leaderboard when all is said and done. :D It looks like all of the time watching MotoGP wasn't entirely wasted. This should at least keep me in the top 1000.

Mornig folks!

I was in doubt of the GT7-alarm-clock yesterday night but in the end i did set it, monday is a bad day in general so a bit less sleep can't harm much :lol: ... so 5:30 AM Beep beep..... and until 6:45 to hunt for time at Maggiore. ( cause can't bring myself to doing the oval again, still 28th overall so happy with that.
The feelings was ok this morning, i had alot of promising sectors but all together seems cursed (like i yell every timetrial...i know :lol:)

Even had high .7 on the S1 and multiple mid 8's but sadly could't string the best once together.

Eventually did PB with a 24.919 (from a .957) so a few places stolen back :)
I'll prob. try this one again before thursday.

Very nice job!, and glad i could help a little :)

The s'es is such a difficult part of this combo, i can't tell you howmany laps were killed there..... tomany. :lol:
4th indeed seems the best way, you can even get away with 5th for even more stability btw, but i think i'm just a little quicker in 4th and i intent to lift on the last "left" curb of the s'es and most of the time i'll hit 5th there, reving it out in 4th is fine but VERY unstable and the exit onto that little straight there is once big slide..... that is...if you hit the curbe the right way :lol:
 
This is one of the more frustrating TT from all time! Tire downgrade just turn that car a burning tire machine. Most tricky part is the second curve thar require hot the apex in second part in curve, and depending on what place you hit the throttle, you lose a lot of time or undesteer to the wall. I used TC as I expected I would do in real life using these tires in a brutal machine.

 
First time I tried this Citroen in Nurburgring, I didn`t like this car. High amount of snap oversteer in that time.
Now in a regular circuit, I found a fun car to drive! Demands a lot of control from throttle, and every success is rewarding.
