Small improvements!

24.736
50.286
 
Sat down for an hour after dinner.. A little over a tenth faster at the line with these..

24.150
49.150

Saw a 24.036 and 49.064 tonight, If I can link them up with my T3 I will be a happy chappy :D
 
Did 20 more laps or so still many tenths out there ;)

24.546
49.796

I did the question of the controller sensitivity to see what ds3 players will use for this TT. I always use +2 but for this TT i think i will change a bit (-2 i think). I will try<<
 
Fetchy not updating, so resubmitting as suggested.

24.636
50.336
 
Slight improvement.

24.217
49.400
 
Just a little faster after a couple of brief sessions.

24.580
49.797
 
Have managed to improve a bit in the last half hour, new times:

S1: 24.800
S2: 50.217

With regards to the controller sensitivity question I noticed, I had been running +2 as I always run but, 20 minutes ago, I increased it to +7...the car is a lot twitchier and not as smooth but it is faster, I have already found 2 tenths thanks to the change and, if I compared a perfect lap with both, 7 would be 4 or 5 tenths quicker for me. It might be worth considering unless you hate ugly and ragged laps :lol:

@GTP_CargoRatt: What you say is true but I get slower the more I run..though it's helping rack up the miles for that last elusive trophy!
 
Some new splits:
24.449
49.682

@rickykaka3 @Killermiller24 - I have been using sensitivity +2 ever since the option was added to GT5

Just had a quick go before I jump on for some practice with the WRS Race!! Thankfully those wolves have stopped shredding my tyres and I've put in a decent initial start now! I have had faster splits but this lap had an insane S3 which I hope to replicate with other faster sectors!

24.186
49.140

Still got some catching to do in S1 though, just that first braking zone is rather insane :D!
 
Managed to improve my first 2 sectors by 1 thousandth of a second...every little helps. It was a slightly slower first sector and I still am not getting it right:

S1: 24.833
S2: 50.216

Slowly improving. If I could string all 3 laps together I'd be very happy. Incidentally, I have now completed over 250 miles on this today...normally I get slower the more I do but have been getting faster today instead...hope it continues tomorrow
 
I've submitted my replay twice and Fetchy hasn't responded. Am I doing anything wrong to why this is happening to me?
 
A kick to Fetchy's shiny metal ass, as he forgot to update my splits in my last post:

24.084
49.150
 
Twitchy under brakes.
25.141
51.891
 
A couple hours break seemed to help me get new, improved splits:

24:284
49:484


Or actually T1 is slightly slower than on my previous best, but T2 and 3 were quite a bit better on this one. I already have an idea what a perfect laptime for my capabilities would look like, now I just have to sew it all together - easier said than done.

Making up time in sector two as I can't do better than a high .1 in sector 1. Not a huge amount left!
 
First lap in:

24:717
50:167


A lot to shave from here... :D

Just can't get that T1 wright:crazy:
 
A small improvement, but I'm happy with my new results

24.533
49.850
 
After a lot of tyre screeching, wall banging, corner cutting red lap times, I finally have a brand new set of splits that I'm proud to share. Not too sure wether or not I can see anymore time out there, but I did set myself a time to achieve & I have achieved that goal.

24.329
49.579
 
Here we go!

24.670
50.020
 
Put in an hour stint so far, this car is a lot of fun.

24.384
49.634
 
You guys are seriously fast! New splits for me but I'm struggling to make tenths now:

T1: 0:24.767 (maybe another 0.1 here for me)
T2: 0:50.167 (I've got nothing more in this sector)

And maybe another tenth or two on the line. Thumbs are sore now, might grind "Like the Wind" for a while :)

Disregard.
 
Last session for today:

24.302
49.452


Again, slower T1 but better T2 and an overall faster lap. I have yet to see a 24.1xx on T1, so not entirely sure if that's going to happen (I'm hoping for one though!), T2 can still see some improvement.

I knew I could find a couple of tenths, even though I'm just barely on coming out of the chicane:

24.332
49.365

I know I can snag some time up in the first sector. Might keep giving it a go for a bit.
 
New splits.
