Quick fire session before work yielded a top 6 effort. Had a wrist niggle from a tennis mishap so couldn't run it last night. CSA on strong. 7 controller sensitivity. 10/10 FFB

So, Le Mans in the new Hypercars... On paper, pretty cool ass combination but a few things to comment on. That is one of the most photogenic combos you could come up with but then you manage to select the most uninspired and boring time/weather settings possible. Blue skies, a few clouds set at like 15.00. Where’s the night? The dusk? Dawn? It’s Le Mans with Hypercars. COME ON.

Anyway, a very difficult and humbling TT. How the guys up front manage 21.1 is just absolutely insane, one can only bow down in awe.

If I personally had properly nailed everything I might’ve touched a 22 but a more realistic really great lap would’ve been a 23.1 which I did set twice, unfortunately that happened on two dead laps, those kind of laps where you just about violate some early track limit but keep going just for the hell of it and to try and get some composure later on and not only drive the same initial corners over and over all the time, two of those laps ended up being a 23.178 and later a .128 when I got a fantastic passage through the Porsche curves and also survived pretty good through Ford, which almost never happens.

In fact, my final PB which became a .386 had a horrific run through the Ford chicanes, it’s a lap that should’ve been a low 23 but I threw it all away. Very tough.

Totally agree, especially since night races are so magical at Le Mans.

Magnificent fluidity on your lap!

I was pretty mediocre on this combo, just relieved to get into gold.

Like you do, I would have liked to reprogram my brain to brake earlier with better entry and conservation of speed.

Although 3 seconds slower, the Porsche turns and then the S of Karting will have a great deal of sensations in VR (and frustration for other curves)
 
Hi fellas! I’m back for one day only and checked in to see what the new time trial had for us… what a cutie!! It’s a lot of fun with some really nice balance to the car, takes some nice brake/throttle work to get it settled in those tight undulating corners but when you get it right it is..
