Oh, come on, now.

Do you hate driving it, or do you hate not being able to trim 0.4 off your splits? ;)
:p I dislike the track from the beginning. So it could be a prejudgement. ;)
 
Hmmm... I just made .1 at the line on my 2nd lap tonight wtf? checked all regs and everything is correct so I will take it :D:tup:

21.660
38.927

I suggest that whoever doesn't really like this combo at first feel should just run it again on a different day! as my 2 laps tonight have shown.. It's all down to how much focus we have on each session and obviously last night I was in a different mindset :) No offence directed at anyone, it's just an observation.. GL racing guys :cheers:
 
Hi guys, a little tip for this combo.. the tight left right before T2 needs to be taken in 4th gear, I gear up just before I start to turn into it and the speed on exit is awesome 👍
 
21.655

much spinning at S2, PB S3 tho!
 
What I learned today: Don't be stubborn about your low brake balance numbers.

BB 4/10

22.067
39.694

These still at not good, but I am off Monday. :trouble:
 
24 ms, only realized in the last corner that it might actually work. Less than seven laps in today.

22.191
40.041

braking 6/5
 
Driving with one hand this week - and for the next month - so I'm thrilled with splits like these :lol:👍

21.573
38.981

Had to turn the FFB down and being extra careful with the throttle, can't exactly catch opposite lock in this thing right now :crazy:

BB 3/10, I thought I should try a ridiculous number like that, and it seems to have worked.
10 in the rear seems to have some traction control effect as well, which makes no sense if you think all BB does is adjust the brakes.

But with ABS on anything other than zero, I believe it also affects the car behavior in the corner. Some people think I am crazy, but try driving it with 1/2, then switch to 5/10, or something like that. And let me know what you think. ;)

That's the main reason I like the low numbers that I use on the brakes most of the time, I feel like I am fighting the car less. But in this case, I immediately improved my lap by nearly 3 tenths as soon as I made the change. After having run for 30 or 40 minutes and only being able to get within about a tenth of my prior best.
 
Dude there's no stopping you at D1B, is there? Nice splits, you'll reach the mothership in no time if you can keep this up :eek:
Thank you Roamer! 👍 I invested a lot of time for learning, practicing and racing during the years. I have a huge passion for racing and it seems that the payback time finally arrived. :cheers:
