I forgot how much I liked this track and how it rewards precision on your braking points and getting the slower corners speed just right. Perfect car for our first run at this track.

Only made about 10 laps tonight. The backend passed the front end on 6 of those laps. I’ll be learning patience this week.

This a link to a video stream by Gran Turismo Sport - Update 1.28 Feedback & Impression Livestream By Erickgtr3123 on the Fuji track. I thought it may help someone on how to negotiate the track.



Hope it's ok to post this!

The 1st 45 minutes are on the "GT" track, at 46 minutes he is on the "F" track which is our TT this week.

First splits after about 15 or so laps. Was using Manual Again (mostly because I forgot to switch it back ) and while it was good the first few laps, trying to push made it much more difficult.

Impressive spits 👍. Hopefully this will help with my issues getting the car to turn in. Are you accelerating out in 1st on those corners or short shifting to 2nd after the turn? This causes me to either (spin out) or loose time (1st gear partial throttle for too long).

That bit i'm not sure about i tried the online gr. 2 race Q at fuji before bed. As far as I remember in turn 1 i shift to 2nd just before the limit as for sector 3 i think i'm shifting a little early. Will have another go this evening and check

Great combo

 

[dranddad]

Nice combo great to have the track back again, now where's Rome / Madrid and Paris

Moved BB to the front, first -1 and now even -2, helps keep the rear in check through the twisty bits.

I will be happy if by the end of the week I have a lap as as good as my current theoretical best.

Nice combo this week. Enjoying the track, although Fuji and I have never gotten along in the past. The car is a handful but fun to drive when I can keep it pointing in the right direction.

Maybe a tip for the guys who are new to this track:you can download replays from the top 10 of practise laps of tonights FIA races.
Notice they are on race medium tires so don't get depressed of those laptimes
But the driving lines and brake points are okay

Wooohoooo! Great to be back! Ran 20 laps and the first 19 were hit n miss, then this 20th I hit solidly and all 3 sectors were my optimal from the run. Super close at turn 2 Coca Cola but contact patch is still on the rumble...barely. I found changing the camera type to Variable and leave it in cinematic view was the easiest way to find the best pause point for turn 2 frame by frame.

BB 0

Bounced off the limiter in 2nd gear while approaching the 2nd to last turn so I think there's more there.

Can you clarify how this is done?
