Subtle improvement.

 

[shoenboggie]

Improved a good chunk at the line with real good second and last sector. Changing BB throughout the lap (-1 sector one then 0 or -1 for the rest of the lap) and running 50/50 again.

Your first split looks transposed, I deleted you from the board as you were 2 seconds clear of everyone.

Please repost.

Sorry for first sector typo. Much as I'd like to, I didn't find a 3 second gain there!

Took a while putting this together. S1-3 have been thereabouts as posted above but it was a lazy night with the last Sector.

Over 4 tenths at the line, but still not a great final sector. 50:50 BB -4, I like the car rotation on brake release at this setting, thanks @EDK.

I also finally started paying attention to the illegal rumbles behind the rumbles, primarily at turn 1 apex

 

[Special_K]

About to have a go at this before it ends, does mileage effect the car like previous games? Only ask because my boy likes to race around the rally tracks and he has clocked up over 1500 miles

Still trying.

Had a horrible second sector and the final sector wasn't the greatest either. Lost all my speed in the first turn in sector 2, it's a tough corner to get right, as is the final turn when trying to find the right braking point. I had to let off the throttle slightly coming out the last corner.

I may get another chance tomorrow after work hopefully.

Merry Christmas guys

There's a thread on here somewhere where someone said they noticed HP loss after like 14,000 miles, but I've not verified it myself.

Not to worry

I managed a 106.4 but went to deep into the next right hander and ended up in the sand If I get time tomorrow I can see at least another 3 tenths. Hopefully I can get on late tomorrow night

Done. Good luck guys.

 

[MrCooper]

Only got a small improvement out of a relatively long session. Still not a great last sector though, let's see where that gets me. Submitted with these splits, good luck and Merry Christmas everyone!

Made the hard choice of sacrificing the first sector to try and better the last one. Can only hope it works.

Submitting now as I'm not sure I can find more time.

Absolutely bottled it in the last 2 sectors losing 2-3 tenths, it's amazing how much time is left if you can put it all together.

Faster in sectors 1, 3 and 4 but lost over a tenth and a half in sector 2, so it's a very small gain.

So hard to nail all 4 sectors, there's probably another .2 on track for me.

Just ran a few thousandths slower than my pb, I was nearly 2 tenths slower at the t3 split as well so time isn't as good as I thought it was

May not be around much over the holidays, so I'm getting the replay in early.

Merry Christmas all

Congratulations to @Special_K and the other division winners, it was a nice battle!

Thanks, it was a good battle

I could see at least 2 more tenths but it wasn't to be this time.

Just watched your lap, nice lap. I noticed you could of been quicker through t3 if you would of short shifted onto the straight before the start of the final sector. That way you would of been able to take the small right hander flat out instead of easing off

Thanks, likewise! 👍

Oh, didn't occur to me to try that, thanks! Not sure it would have made enough of a difference to catch you this time anyway, but I'll keep it in mind for another time.
