Thanks Chris, and nice splits for you too 👍.

Can't seem to put together T2 as well as T1 and 3, but out of time so submitted. Good luck everyone :cheers:.
 
Shame I couldn't try this during the week. First session:
T1: 21.438
T2: 19.978
T3: 16.829
Still some time in there, hope to find as much as possible.:)

Those are D1 splits Mohit.👍
 
Nice splits Wes and Mohit, and I agree with Wes, those are D1 splits. As for me I dont know whether to call it or keep tryin. I know I have a few tenths there but its becoming incredibly hard to find it, the car gets so nervous out of corners and theres a very thin line between the limit and spinning. Maybe ill find a few tenths tomorrow
 
Found my first worthy laps, finally abel to keep the monster on track :)

Way to arrive in style Wes 👍

Another small step for me:

21.423
20.065
16.736

Dropped over a tenth being too cautious into the long left in sector 2 but more than made up for it everywhere else. This may be it for me but I'll keep chasing that last tenth... and submitting now so I don't end up like last week. :ouch:
 
Great splits Wes and Chris :bowdown:.

You guys annoy me though :grumpy: :sly:.

I'll try to sneak in a couple of sessions more.
 
Indeed, great chrono's on the board. I have chased my ghost for another 50 laps, could get close but no improvment. I just have to be realistic, preforming even better would make me an incredible alien :) I have got a gut feelin' that my current laptime should be enough to obtain a negative handicap. Fingers crossed.
 
21.722
20.175
17.113

Can't seem to repeat my .5 in the first sector so settled for .6 then I do s better lap with a .7 :ouch:, managed to knock out 2tenths in T2 but I think I left either 1tenths or 2 in T4
 
21.549
20.060
16.986

Still .2 to find but don't know if I can put it together.
 
I've had a couple goes throughout the week but haven't had any good chunk of time to devote to this yet, hopefully I get a chance later today. I've got room to go faster, and I'm sure I will, but for now this is what I have.

T1: 21.452

T3: 16.816

Nice job with those splits though anyway Baron 👍

Thanks, I submitted my time, and probably won't run this one again.

I did quite a bit better than I thought was possible at the beginning of the week. :)
 
Had a quick 10 lap session

21.884
20.352
17.507

Might get another go tomorrow but the new combo may be a better event to ease the rust!

This car is now driving me insane, I've got to call it quits with these splits. I haven't decided if I will submit yet, I'm not all that happy with it.

Splits from my session today and my submission.

21.695
20.303
17.042

Had a dirty lap that was about a tenth better, but this will have to do.
 
I think I'll run one more session to try and improve that last sector, the last corner is not easy to nail
 
Messed up the last sector, crossing fingers for a division podium, no more time. Good luck all ! Fun Combo.
:cheers:

So many good splits posted that I felt I had to give it one last go:

21.498
19.888
16.744

Got a bit of wheel spin coming out of the right-hander just after T3, but still a small improvement at the line. Been faster in all sectors but I'm never going to string together the perfect lap with this beast.
 
Really bummed that my only lap on this was the one to grab the pics in the OP (thanks Kev!), and that was with the DS3. So bummed, in fact, that I think it's made me catch a cough and runny nose:ill:, I better leave work now and give it a FIX! :mischievous:

Great splits, everyone. 👍

Nice Jonas.👍

T1: 21.449
T2: 19.921
T3: 16.680
Maybe a bit of luck, relatively big improvement on the lap. That is if my last sector is good enough.

Good luck all.:cheers:

Here's a picture of the closest spot:

The piece of grass is about 15 cm's long, I don't think the tyre will move that far from left to right on a piece of road of that length.
