So after running consistent 24.4s with 23.320 best first sector my best lap happened with these. I wish I had time to get that last tenth ...

24.500
47.300
1'06.000

Lucas, this was by far the most satisfying combo. Never got frustrating, just joy to drive.
 
24.867
48.184
1.07.300

only 270 km on the clock, 'regret not taking more time to this great event !
 
Tried all different torque settings,and ride heights.
But all I gain with 1 setting in the first 2 sectors,will be lost in T3 and 4.
Strange..:odd:
 
Submitted and accepted. Suspect I'll slip down the order a bit as I didn't get as much time as I'd like but it was fun!

Submitted, accepted. Great Combo. Whole new look at the wild side of Stuttgart 👍
 
Can't quite get the hang of this combo, my times are very poor for my division. (well I am a bit rusty, haven't driven a time trial in 2 months. :lol:)
 
New splits, (I'm nearing my limits)

No you are not, I have seen you race online. There are two ways to setup the car depending on your driving style:

1. Use brakes to turn the car:

significantly higher front than rear height (110/90 or so)
more forward torque split (35:65 or so)
strong rear bias (5/7 or even higher)

You'll be slow in the first part of the track but fast in the second half.

2. Use weight transfer to turn (releasing brakes initiates the turn)

slightly lower rake (100/90 or even less)
rear torque split (25:75 to 22:78 depending how good you are with throttle control)
balanced brakes 4/4 or 4/5

You'll be fast in first sector. Turn 1 is really easy when you gradually release brakes but your sector 3 and 4 will suffer.

Both torque split and brake balance can be adjusted during the second sector. Not me though, no buttons or hands available.
 
I just couldn't get any more in the banzai attempt - kept losing at least 2/10ths after T3.

Submitted and accepted with the times on the leaderboard, hoping that S4-S5 does the trick
 
Doh! Why didn't I think of that? I knew there were these RA functions but never used them.
I found a good compromise with 99/90, 24:76, 4/5 so if banzai runners don't go too crazy I might get my best ever result.
 
I'm thinkin this is legal?

Yes. Legal. 👍
 
Yes that's fine.

Yeah...if you cut that corner too tight you'll get a "next lap invalid" notification. I'd guess if you don't get that notification than there's a very very strong chance you're clean.
 
That thin corner was my closest call trying to spool up for the home stretch. I thought it was good but I appreciate the feed back. I gaver one last gung ho but couldn't even scratch it. Gl all, 👍, Submitted and out. It's go-kart time :lol:
