Great splits dude:tup: I'm glad today is just Wednesday, maybe I'll be able to catch you and @Mr P


Thanks man it's not come easy have taken a few laps to get there, abit of swearing and trying all sorts, will have to keep trying as I know you guys won't be giving up!

Realistically think I got about .1/.15 left overall
 
@markyboy92 Not giving up you say, I for one have had to go on the back burner. Bit spent after the last few weeks, its now time to get the energy levels back up ready for the demands of the grand kids at Christmas

As I said any help with turn 3 would be great.

Had many frustrating laps were I've nailed sector 1 only to mess up there,
On entry to corner I go as wide as poss, hold 3rd, settle the car, on the power early as you can carry through more speed than you think, use inside kerb but it's not very often I pull a .7 sector 2 anyway, normally .8 if I'm lucky sometimes haha!

I'm working almost every day at the mo and out evenings too, just over tired and not got a fresh mind to try at 1030pm hopefully get on tomorrow night

Brake a car length or even 2 before the rhs rumble. Stay in 3rd. Well behaved over the inside rumble so use it. You can stomp on the loud pedal before the apex.

Any advice for Druids? Go deep and square off a late apex or ride the rumble?
 
Ok cheers guys, will try again over the weekend hopefully. Been struggling mostly in the 15s for second sector, hopefully your advice will help. I have been using 3rd, just taking the corner wrong.

Cheers
 
Here is a lap of @Doodle that helped me a lot. 👍


That’s a really good lap, I wish I had even half the skills he does. The only thing I would say about that lap is you could probably be a little more aggressive on corner exits than he’s having to be, because he’s driving an understeering boat of a front-wheel drive car.

Another trip to the dentist chair and I am finished with PB in sector 1 & 3 requiring dynamic BB changes as the lap unfolded. If I was quick enough with the BB knob on my T-GT wheel, I would have changed BB before each corner...I think I have lost my mind! :crazy::crazy: Dentist drills and powerful drugs are a deadly combo...:lol: The Mazda has been returned to my garage with a For Sale sign in the window...I am out of pocket for the rest of the weekend.

Good Luck Everyone!

Agonising session, 3 hours solid I just refused to give up lol
Haven't done that in years
At the end of It, somehow god knows i still have the same splits to use, 3 laps I was within 0.011 of my fastest lap, I improved on one occasion but was slightly over the kerb.
I saw multiple times mid to low 5s first sector and saw some 6s sector 2

Will try again at some point hopefully

Yeah, I put it in the wrong spot and moved it right away.

You get to see what it's all about tomorrow. 👍

Done to many laps on this now losing the plot lol, had potential of 35.1 by sector 2 but never strung 3 solid sectors together in one lap.

Been good fun although was winding myself up haha

Ugh, was only able to start this combo today. The car drives really well. Sector 2 is giving me fits, I need to figure out where I’m losing time.

BB +1 I should add.
