Looks like Fetchy as a comms problem with you ....

Meanwhile I just noticed I has SRF=on in my last lap :banghead:
Sooo, I did a clean lap better at the s/f line in 1,3 secs , but worst in the first half (alf?)
So here goes the truth:

There's something wrong with the splits of GTP_Ollie57 on the board, they're almost like they're in the wrong order...but then he's pretty quick and should be way up the board, so maybe not. Not sure which page of the thread the post is on because I'm lazy, but perhaps someone could prod him :lol:

I been able to update to 1,09 , normaly i should be unpacking my stuff to my new appartment but decided to install my driving seat 1st :lol:

realisticaly im not sure if i will be able to run again though as i really need to unpackmy stuff. :scared:

almost lost control at the 2nd caroussel, left about one full second on the lap may be more hard to say with only one session but 1st 9 splits are close to limit i seen a 46,5 at 9th split but lost control near the end...

using 350/300 bb4/6

...for just over a second at the line. Somewhat disappointingly, the lap before was 0.5 faster than this until I spun at the Kleine-Karoussel.

I may be submitting this lap as going faster will require a healthy dose of luck! :cheers:
 
If on average, after passing the Nordschleife pits, I have a 3% chance to fail to negotiate a corner, discarding a lap, then it gives a 1% chance to have a valid lap. Which would have a high probability to be personal best, at this point. Starting...

Maybe half a second left - a little tentative here and there but only minor mistakes costing a tenth here or there. Dunno if I'm good enough to extract much more

Edit: hmm sector 9 sucks!!

Absolutely gutted... I was streaming the F1 today and it apparently fried my laptop :( I knew it was on its last legs but I wasn't ready for it when it went. I now have no way of uploading replays so I'm out of the WRS 'til I get something sorted. That and I have to steer clear of any news outlets until 7:30 tonight to catch BBC's highlights of the race.

:grumpy:
 
My best results come when I'm too tired to push hard.

Amen!

Also, here, braking very late just messes you up once you're through the GP section, I find the best laps are those 'smoooooth' transition laps where you brake gently, coast thru apexes at the correct speed, not forcing the issue. This track when run as one big transition with some big straights as interludes can be quite productive - though you have to learn the sectors first. I tend to thrash the GP section then try and run the middle part really smooth, then push in those fast corners around the 6 minute mark, then carefully coax it home from mini-karussel to the finish.
 
slower splits, but safer and defo clean lap, just a second gained at line though..

Keep doing something wrong at s8 and s9, losing a load of time, seems my lines correct but just can't commit to the corners at enough speed...
 
Nearly a second thru T9, but only got half of that in the end. Using Aero 250/330 and BB 5/5.

So, the previous splits I posted were with SRF on and Grip on low (suspect both) so I've binned those splits and replaced with these

0.078 quicker than with SRF on :lol:

Made two mistakes which cost a couple of tenths and almost destroyed the lap - mowed a lot of grass, just reviewed the lap and it's close but ok. Maybe half a second in it still, will keep having the odd lap here or there....

I found the 4 seconds I was looking for and happy with the lap but will do one more session tomorrow because you can do always better.

Most I can gain is on the GP part

Fixed what offended Fetchy and bolded it, it's frustrating, but "he" appears to pick up on any "valid" (0.000 upwards at a guess) splits in a post (at least if they start a line (I don't want to flood a thread to see exactly what the problem is)), one too many and he has a tantrum. ;)
 
I can't seem to finish the fast laps!

Wow. A few tenths dropped in the GP section, a tenth dropped at the mini karussel but other than that, a shed load of PBs (Particularly T7). Beyond what I thought I could do, that's as much as I can cope with my nerves are shredded! :scared: :nervous: :lol:

Will submit this, having just checked it through.

About as close as I'll ever get to @mike_gt3 on a Nurburgring layout :lol:

Edit; Submitted/accepted - I'm done - stuck a good 4 hours into this one, it was bloody tough!
