I could tell something wasn't right... I hadn't given my car a proper race number. Once I got that sorted out we were back in the game.

I would say clean.

Another go...

22.467
45.533

Probably another couple of tenths from best sectors so far, which is surprising considering how rusty I was yesterday. I've done about 100 laps today though.

I would say clean. There are two tires in contact (Idon't know that the rules say "full" contact) with the track.
Obviously I could be wrong.

Not bad for a rusty old hermit. Now @Animera and yourself need to calm down. :p

Ian, if your front tires are the same as the rear, you're clean. Just as long as one or the other aren't fully on the left most white.
 
Thanks everyone, but I've got a 1/10th faster lap that isn't that close. :scared:

22.367
45.350

I think there's about .150 more over the whole lap for me.

There's .05 left in t3 for me and 1 tenth up to T2 but I'm not going to run anymore.. good luck on Monday. Probably be a close one since I'm usually garbage at the mystery sectors.
 
My t3 is pretty bad I guess... Whenever I get good t1 and a good t2 I end up messing t3.

Slower splits, found 0.2 at the line
 
22.653
46.020

Slower splits, but found 3 tenths at the line. Think I've got about 0.2 more in me round the lap, whether I'll do it or not is a different matter!

And with that, time for another go....
 
I've pretty much hit my limit:

23.017
46.834

I expect Al and Eric to have better T3s than me.
 
changed bb to 3/7

22.329
45.569
 
22.630
46.030
 
22.505
45.905

and .2 at the line
still a little bit left for me.

The race specifics said that the white rumble stripes are legal track. One half of the tires is on the white line and the other half is on the white rumble stripes... i would say it is clean.

Those aren't rumble strips. The rumbles are white and red. Those would be concrete and your lap will be invalid if you don't have 2 tyres in contact with the track through there.

Thanks for the explanation! Does this mean that even a minimal track contact is o.k?

As long as you have 2 tires contact patches of rubber on the track you can cut the corners as much as possible. Could be 2 full tires or even just barely touching.

Yes, as long as the outer edge of the tire is touching the tarmac between white concrete and the white line it's clean.
I don't think you really gain that much by cutting it too close there. Braking early for the first turn of s2 and good exit from the double right after that is more important. Basically if you can stay in 2nd gear without hitting the rev limiter before the chicane you are doing it wrong :)
 
Still plenty of time to gain in t2, but a good run up the hill was a quarter of a second faster by the line. Did bin a super run up the hill on a 45.4 t2.

22.384
45.584

Not far off my target lap time. If I could nail some good sectors, I will just about do it.

Some cracking times on the board from the div 2 guys.
 
Sill being a little cautious in S3 but this is probably going to be my submission.

I lost a lot of time in S3 tho :grumpy:
 
submitted time , rejected ! invalid cambers and toe settings .

arrrg , i thought it was still all standard , only checked the hp and weight and pp .

so, new splits

22.596
46.046

:banghead:
 
some problem here, rejected because off camber and toe settings.
I don't have time to redo my time.

maybe the next WRS
 
Slow compared to everyone else, but I have some races to do tonight, and I feel decent about where I made my time up today.
