... and some more courage through the left hander. :dopey:

One thing i noticed: you should check the wind direction when you enter the TT (use R1 at the main TT screen to switch to the wind and temperature screen), you want to make sure it's pointing along the start straight. This straight slopes downwards, so having the wind in your back will give you about 5km/h additional speed. You will loose some speed down the back straight but since it slopes upwards and is a bit shorter, you will loose less than the gain from the start straight.
So if you have an unfavorable wind direction, quit and reenter again, and you will get a new one.

I used the sunny evening setting and also looked for a higher temperature, but the temperature seems to matter less than the wind direction.

I wish PD would fix the weather conditions of the TTs completey and not mess with them randomly. :irked:

That wind really affects the S-curve right after T2. The difference between it blowing left and right (or down/up the front straight) is nearly 10 mph. Here's hoping against hope that it's fixed this week.

I'm declaring a pineapple and submitting with what's already on the board.
 
I'm still 0.6xx off my theoretical best and will have one more session tomorrow. Current best lap submitted with these new splits

Had a blast this week driving the Honda like it was stolen. 👍

Would be nice if PD fixed the weather on the Time Trials and allowed us to load a saved ghost.
