So close to chicane wall...

Your first split seems a bit fast! is that correct?

edit: nearly 2 secs up on fastest... its SH rear SS front for tyres..

I get the sense that by Sunday, just to keep up with the competition, I'll need to be down into the 54s for Sector 2.

I can only imagine some of the stuff you jokers are pulling off at the last chicane.

Yikes, I'm sure I haven't earned that moniker.
Here are the gears I'm using, but I'm not sure they're any better than what you're using now.

Set final at 3.200,then top speed to min.
Set gears.
4.550
3.440
2.675
2.190

Final 2.500

I don't have a clue how to get around this track in a timely manner.

The car sure is cute though, I love these old squares.

Wow, seems as though you use the same method as I am using so far for this event. :sly: I have about 10 different ways to set my gears, so far this way is the fastest. I still have about 5 other methods to test though.

Dropped some time in t2 and t3, but a gain at the line...
 
Nice splits there 👍

Thanks, t1 on my replay looks amazing, proper alien ;)...

Every time I get into the 54's I loose my nerve in t3, but I'll get it 👍.. damn that last chicane!!!!
 
arrrgh, Mods help.. just found out that I've been signed out of PSN, so my best replay has been done 'offline', I am busy for rest of week and was going to just submit now...
Is this offline status going to be a problem?
 
No, that's fine.

Definitely not the best I can do, but I'm way too tired to carry on, so only ran for ten minutes.

Shift points 38-40, 58, 79-80, 106-just at 107. Not sure how that translates to k, sorry.

No rigidity improvement.

I think I'll try some other people's gears when I next run.
 
Having fun with this one.. but must be missing something.. as I can't get a sub 56.. in T2.. but getting closer

EDK's gearing and taking all turns in T2 in 3rd gear should do it.
 
First splits after two short sessions using the ItsAllAboutEDK tune:

25.383
55.883

just need a good T2, and i'll be happy

And a good t3?

That's right, I gained half a second in T3 over my previous lap. In T3 there is so much time to gain or to lose, it can ruin your whole lap or make it a banker ;)
 
with EDK's tuning :

55.067
55.417
 
It'd be nice to do more than 3 laps without the track disappearing :/
 
I'll see if I can get a run in sometime this evening. ;)
 
24.987
55.403

5 tenths at the line. It is what it is i guess. Positive handicap for sure this week
 
24.768
54.918

My sector 3 was pretty good, but I lost two tenths at the chicane from my previous best because on that lap, I hit it perfectly. :(
 
25.280
55.563

Finally hitting the .5s in T2 and straight after this lap (thanks to a really good exit in the chicane) I got a 24.9xx T1 in the next lap, but then messed up in T2 and lost my ghost.

This is enough for now, but I'll come back to it later.

As for tunes, did these splits with the EDKWins tune with Baron's gears (they're just right, thanks @Cats_PJs) - I did try @mistersafeway 's tune, but couldn't get comfortable with it at all, then went back to the first tab and immediately went faster. This was at the beginning of the session, and I had already made about 2 hundredths at that point. After changing tunes about a few times I started making tenths, til at the end I had made up 7 tenths over my previous best lap with the other splits (the chicane is a time killer if you get it wrong).
 
25.004

My final sector is consistently terrible :)
