Great combo,nice flowing sections followed by long straights to have a breath and prepare again for the next section.

Nice battle from the Div 1 guys for the RUF Cup.

Fantastic 1st sector! 👍 That inspired me to push a bit harder. :trouble:

27.592
29.611

Best 1st and 2nd sectors so far. :) Had a bit of a wobble through the last right hander of sector 3 but held on for a 0.02 gain at the line. Still looking for 2 tenths.

Oh no, I think you should stop! :scared:

Nah, awesome splits sir! 👍




Will have to try this one again tomorrow, hoping to improve by a few tenths.
 
Yeah Chris, stop already :scared:

You keep on raising the bar 👍 I was .2xx up earlier at T2 but lost my nerve in T3.. Ive probably spent to long on this combo already, but I'll have another try tomorrow.. :)
 
Argh, my driving line into turn 1 has messed up. Not too damaging but it's taking me tonnes of restarts to find a braking point :( it basically only appears red when you're already at that point, so by the time you see it, it's too late? Weird, didn't happen last night.....

Still, did manage a decent lap, but blew the last turn so bad so the gain wasn't great

I know what you mean. I brake on the first kink in the driving line ( getting the timing so that you are right on the kink is the trick), but atleast it's a reference point. I suppose this depends on your setup though.

:lol: Sorry guys, this new obutto seat is just too comfortable... so blame my Missus. :sly:

Nice battle heating up in D2 there guys - nice splits transamguy and Matt. 👍

I'm just swapping sectors about at the moment so leaving it for now with these splits:

37.346
27.728
29.458

Better run through sector 4 and up a tenth at the line. Messed up my gears after the left hander at the start of sector 2 and changed down instead of up. :dunce: Best sectors tell me there is still another 0.2 to be had but I'm leaving it for now and coming back refreshed for another run on Sunday.

Good luck guys. :cheers:

Final ones for today...

37.500
28.084
29.743

Sloppy t2 but lucky t1 where I caught the grass and drifted perfectly into turn 1. Looks really weird on replay.

Major problem with turn 1. Braking line is of no use all of a sudden and I cannot find a reference point other than guessing about 20m before the first braking board. I'm getting really frustrated with that...... :banghead:

Cheers for the great setup Chris, works way better than mine :lol:

I never did have a good brake line into 1, so I i've found my reference point from day one. And yes it's frustrating. Nice T1 though :)
I fear I am maxing as my top 10 leaderboard is all within 4/10ths. Done for the day.
 
chris i know you are fast but dont think you managed a 27 in T1 ;) nearly had a heart attack, but ive done the same before :D

Looking good.

Nice d2 battle shaping up, of course I'm way behind now. Last time I ran there was .4 left in the first three sectors, looks like I'll need all of that.

As for turn 1, I am doing it the same as you are, braking just before the first marker. Really picky brake point, seems like a foot too early and I end up entering way too slow and a foot too late and I'm off the outside.
 
Slight improvement. Not sure I have anything left in me...

Festive Greetings gentlemen! :cheers: Late to the party again but not an 11th hour gate-crash this time. :sly: Strange car but an exciting track - I love watching the F1 cars here, it just looks crazy. Some splits anyway -

37.631
27.788
29.831

I have already spent about 2 hours on this combo to get these splits and it was slow going at first. I used Chris' tune, as most seem to be doing. This lap was 0.2 better than any other I managed, mostly due to the fact that my T2 was a total fluke. I thought I was running too wide at the hairpin and then it just came back in and I had a perfect run out and up the hill. :D Every lap after that, I just couldn't repeat that T2 and my other sectors are already close to my best. I'll give it another run tomorrow I think but I generally peak early and then fail to improve so that could be my submission.

Hope you all are having a great holiday. Here's to a grand new year! :cheers:
 
Found some speed thnks to those tunings of Vagabond.

Thanks a lote, dude!

Noooooo...! Don't give up just take a break and come back at it refreshed and your blood sugar level primed. :D

Nice one Dan. 👍 Good luck mate. :)

I couldn't resist another go this afternoon...

37.434
27.574
29.435

I actually made a total mess of turn 3 outbraking myself and running way wide, otherwise this would've been my magic lap. Still up 0.03 at the line though. Coming back to it later...

I would definitely keep trying if it wasn't so 🤬 hard to stay on the track :lol:. I've completely lost the "feel" while I was away from GT5 :crazy:

Totally blew t2 on this lap. Theoretically there's .35 left, but I'm done for today.

Four d2r's within .08, good stuff.
 
New splits : at last I am getting somewhere.

What a difference between the Set up of Chris (thank you for that) and the Priano tune I had been running the first laps.
