GT7 Online Time Trial/Lap Time Challenge Discussion

[Todt]

I will keep trying until the last second, if only i can rest for few days to reset the bad muscle memory 😅. My lap has a potential of .560-570. However sector 2 only happens once in a million laps. Whats funny is that on day 1 i was so good and consistent in sector 2 but now only once in a million laps i get it how i want to lol

I'm not going to tell you what to do champ.

But if I can answer your question about bad reflexes, I'd do several short 15-20 minute sessions with breaks rather than long 1hour long sessions for example. That helps me with bad reflexes!

Beefpasty, im stuck at 645, struggling in sector 2. After holding it from day 1 will lose it on the final day 💔 4wd is annoying me, never gonna drive a 4wd again ever

I know you can do it. Can you specify what exactly doesn't work for you in sector 2.
If you think that "comment section strategist" 😅 can help, I can take a look. I don't have skills to execute, but maybe I can observe study and give feedback and then it's in your hands?
Stupid question, have you compared your lap and P2 or P3 in data logger?
Stupid question 2, I know you catch the car much better than any AI CSA, but still, have you tried it?

Turn 3 and 4, it used to rotate after brake release, now somehow it doesnt. I did try data log with my fast lap that i bottled at the final corner. And yeah i was ahead by a tenth. As for csa, no, i dont like the way it feels

I find that it seemingly will and will not rotate the same way in corners between laps, for no discernable reason. I run into issues with Turn 1 - I swear I'm releasing the brake as I turn in the same way, but sometimes it turns in way better, sometimes less so, and sometimes it just starts sliding off the track, refusing to turn almost entirely.

Have you played with some settings? Also this might be very long shot, but I read that some Thrustmaster wheels ...I should be very careful what I say... After spec 3... it's kind of glitch when just something happens and turning everything off on reset it. I mean you haven't gave more info than "it used to rotate and now it doesn't" so I am just thinking out loud.
(Think I read about Wheel thing on GT planet somewhere last few days, maybe I am mistaken?)

Nah, manifest that 'can do' energy. You got this!

Optimals in 50.0xx

 

[CosmicMinster]

0:49.975 on a controller, quite happy with this but definitely not my limit. After further inspecting the data logger (very useful tool also, glad they added this) it seems I can push to a .89 at best but requires perfect execution of the final turn which is extremely awkward in this boat of a car.

 

[NAXEHT]

Big meh crap, not sold on either of these two! Feeling tired and uninterested.

 

[MP81]

I really need to stop spending an extra hour of my usual racing time doing this 😂

Down to a 50.038, which puts me in 97th place, and unfortunately I don't think that'll hold until the end, but I think I'm at my limit with that slidey understeering, oversteering, tire-spinning boat.

 

[Gomario JSP]

Did a nother morningsession in the swedish USB thing...., my last..
And i am glad it's gone today, i hate every about it..
I am sure i could have ended up sub 50 but i'm totally fine with it, not my idea of fun.

To heavy at the front and a very bad torque distribution..

So..... Polestare "the ultimate tire squeeker" bye bye!

I was hoping to see cirtuit Gilles Villenueve in action.... next time, no problem

BTW I'm a bit demotivated lately, short on time, using a bit of it on PMR, waiting for the DD to be delivered, plus my G23 throttle pedal giving a lot of problems, so I'm just posting times on few laps for the money.
I'll very heppy of the telemetry, but looking at you with the throttle blimping from 100% to 60% and back to 100% several times doesn't make that sense right now

It is true, you can’t bang down to 2nd instantly in the R34 you have to better time the shifts as it won’t respond until the revs drop enough 😀

What exactly am i looking at?

 

[half_sourly]

The results for TT176 at Autodrome Lago Maggiore - East in the GT by Citroën Road Car are over here. I have updated the opening post with the index of all TTs and the second post with the community scoreboards. A reminder that each driver's results for every TT are in the Excel file attached to the latest results post.

No interims given the next one closes midnight UK time today.

 

[tankuroded]

What exactly am i looking at?

That's the Polestar TT.

 

[KAlex122]

Oh, yeah, sorry. Just took me a while longer.

It's not going to change anyone's place relative to the aliens on the leaderboards though lol

 

[Tidgney]

Here's the Tsukuba guide for those interested! Fun combo! Apologies it wasn't out sooner, my PC had a wobbler this morning!

 

[ZEE]

Managed to get back into the Silvers with these new time trials. The R34 Tsukuba is quite tricky as the car feel weighted on controller not sure why, maybe 1.66 physics change??

I can see that Calster has already topped the ranks, well done sonny jim and Tidge is quite high too.

 

[Wilsonson]

Had an early lunch break today and decided to try and tame the Mine's. Really tricky and slidy.

I managed one miracle lap that was half a second faster than all my others when I managed clean exits ot of all the hairpins in addition to a clean pass through the sharp right hander and a nice exit out of the final turn. I doubt that can replicate this.

Having a top 100 time (although it was only super briefly of course) is the cherry on top.
