Enjoying this one.
Just using ds3 atm
New splits are
24.517
48.050

Im really falling away at the moment

Try using manual gears.. gives you much better control.. I also am using a DS3..


Slowly but surely getting faster over the line ..

24.319
47.252
 
Made a big mistake.....I run over 80 laps, checked my settings just to be sure and noticed that I had the front and rear tires the same. Should be medium at the front and hard at the rear....

All for nothing :banghead::banghead::banghead:

Had to start all over again but managed to get a better split and also win .2 at the line in my second session :)

24.187
47.020
 
I think I know what you mean. A lot of older tracks feel new to me whenever we have a TT there, because of how I evolved as a "virtual racer" since our last TT on that same track. I can now "read" the track in a different (and hopefully better) way, and often while at the same time remembering how it felt like before (and realizing that I had no clue back then!).

Yes, thats it ... and more: Beating the "bots" is nothing compared with competing with some (a lot of) D3's :sick:
And I dont even mention the "alliens" :gtpflag:
 
Well, i need .02 in t3 and .046 in t1 so I'm looking for about a .660ish at t2 splits. Don't think i'll be getting that, but it'd be nice if I did.

You're really getting at it this week Patrick. Might be fending you off come monday ;)
 
New splits
24.373
47.473
 
24.348
47.164
 
24.413
47.447
 
90 minute session for 65 thousandths gain?!?

24.306
47.106

Have seen some .2's at T1 and have had a miracle Sector 3 that was 0.1 better than my current lap but I think for me to find more than about 0.1 or 0.2 I'd need a radically different approach. Still enjoying it though 👍

P.S. It'd be interesting if this was both of our final submissions @AspecBob to see who triumphs in the final sector :sly:
 
First 10 laps...hopefully I'll be able to submit this week. Nice change of pace and a nice balanced car on these tyres 👍

24.256
47.206

EDIT: saw a 47.0xx but then hit the rev limiter :trouble:

Very enjoyable combo.
 
Haven't been able to compete for a long while, my cockpit has seen better days which makes me be a bit too conservative.

Lovely combo though with hardly any creaks and groans from my seat!

First sitting tonight and hope to find some more time over the weekend.

Sorry double post!

Just to give Fetchy a nudge.

24.367
47.200
 
Next 10...

24.266
47.066

...and a better T3 for a 0.4 gain at the line 👍
 
24.271
46.904

Dropped a tenth in the third sector though.
 
24.253
46.886

Still 0.2 to find to tie up all three splits
 
Rats. I just ran my PB sector two and sector three in the same lap.
But it was with 24.369 T1 :(
 
24.173
46.786

Improved on what was already a decent final sector, but plenty of room elsewhere. Don't have a clue with the brake setting though, still at default
 
24.198
46.865

For 0.05 at the line. Looking for another 0.15 for a perfect lap, but to be honest, anything more is just gravy.

Going to try and immerse myself in Le Mans as much as possible this weekend and run a Sauber or Jag around there (H-shifter, no ABS) with all the lights in the house off and the screen graphics off :D

Lucas @Gravitron it wouldn't have even been three in a row if I wasn't the only one posting laps last night :sly:

@patrick19602005 how's your T3? I'm a tenth off my very best through there so I don't see me beating you with this lap...

Well, I'm happy. Half a sec is noteworthy:

47.727
 
24.173
46.786

Try 1/4 or 1/6 to get a little more rotation
 
A little improvement in all sectors.. but not the best splits I've seen..
