Can someone confirm how much of the pit lane we can use on exiting the last turn please.
Regards.
Jay.

I would say "as little as possible" when finishing up or as "much as possible" on start up........lol
 
On startup, I typically slow way down, go all the way straight to the wall, downshift to 1st, HARD left, and then clip the rumbles on the left on my way to the start line. This usually gets me across the start line at 86-88mph. I can't usually repeat that speed when crossing the finish after that first lap though.

Div 4 Silver's got to have *some* (legal) tricks in order to move up!
That, or I need to learn to drive better, Mkay.
 
37.067
19.199

Happy with that, just a case of chasing hundredths now, maybe a tenth at a stretch.
 
So are you guys cutting all corners and kerbs then? I'm not sure which is the best route.
 
No, like any track, some kerbs are good, others are bad, on this track, the bad ones are very evil.
 
Really struggling to find any more time to cut now :(

I'm sure that there is a much better line and braking points than I am using.... But finding them is tricky!
 
Gone a bit quicker!

T1: 37.511
T2: 19.327
 
Driven a bit faster then yesterday 👍
But this could be my last run unless i'm home early on sunday.
Like the long straight, you can have a zip of your coffee in the run down the first corner. :crazy:

T1: 37,680
T2: 19,670

Keep on shaving :dunce:
 
T1: 38.216
T2: 19.809


A few more seconds less from last night!
 
Anyone else getting a slight "pull" to the right on the long start/finish straight? Probably easier to notice with a DS3, due to the left-stick auto-centering. Mine's only a couple months old and hasn't had much use, so I doubt it's got a "lean".

Just wondering if it was something about that straight, or something inherent in the car.

Compliments to EDK/Vaxen/Admins! I thought I'd hate this car/combo, but it's great!! 👍

The pit wall very slightly turns left.
 
No, like any track, some kerbs are good, others are bad, on this track, the bad ones are very evil.

And that's pretty much every one.
 
They are quite violent here, you have to know them quite intimately to actually utilise them.
 
Pretty excited, after getting some free time. I nearly shaved a second off my past splits.

T1: 37.854

There is so much room to improve my times :(
 
Found 45mins to squeeze another session in (i'm an addict yes:scared:) and found a smidge at T2, but .15 at the line. Probably not enough to catch you Phillip, but it's all i got mate.

Amazing T1. :eek: Well done mate, I was wondering if someone would crack the 37.000 barrier. 👍

New Splits.

Nearly my limit here.

Cheers Shaun.

Lefty and Reverend,
Sorry I was not able to get in any smack talk yesterday. Work kept me very busy. I was able to run some laps late last night. Although I did not get better T1/T2 splits I did improve my T3. I will try to get in some good ole smack talk over the weekend.
