2nd round of 5 laps, hard for me to get motivated on BMW’s never have liked the physics on any of the BMW cars in game.

Driven most of them in real life too, from the 2002 through to the 5, 7 series and a small run in the Z4, Maybe psychological they are well engineered and built but there is just that little something that grinds away at me when reverting back to a Jaguar, bit late for me to have a run in the XF now but if I win the lotto.

Anyway new splits.

T1: 0'14.790
T2: 0'30.364

Good splits Stephen keep going you'll get a Div win the way your going.

Phillip.
 
Im with Phillip on this one never really liked Bmw for some reason,although I do respect them as a quality car.

T1: 14.720

T2: 30.099
 
Surprised that this was my quickest given the number of mistakes in the lap... on the bright side, that means I should go quicker! Still a way off the quickest, but I can't expect much at my first attempt.

T1: 0'15.089
T2: 0'30.863
 
I'm not a huge fan of the way the car feels either, but I gave it a try. What's really putting me off is that first corner. It's so hit and miss for me, zero consistency. I must have tried too hard in the GTP Qualifier, because I clearly don't belong in Div 2. :lol:
 
I managed a quicker lap... but both my splits were waaay down :ouch: by as much as .4 secs. I was supposed to be improving the first two sectors, not the final part :nervous:

Same here... The first turn gets me, and quick left/right shortly after it. I either hit the wall, or go through it too slow, and my T2 ends up being slower than one of my first attempts... Think I'm done for today.
 
Faster lap, slower splits. Big slide coming out of the quick left/right chicane.

T1: 15.019
T2: 30.942
 
I am not able to devote as much time to this as I had hoped this week.

Believe me, I need to devote time and put in the Laps as I am so inconsistent in the 1st and 2nd sectors plus on the last corner at Piccadilly. I seem to really be struggling on this track.
 
T1 0'15.107
t2 0'30.952

EDIT:

Wierd, my "t" in T2 just turned lower case, like someone else mentioned earlier.
 
Hi everyone,

Just finished my first run at this combo after taking a couple of weeks out from GT5P. Enjoyable ten laps gave me these first splits,

14.837
30.513

Yeah. I updated my first post, and upon posting, all characters changed to lowercase (I inserted ...T1...etc and they all changed to lowercase).
 
I'm pretty sure I see where I'm losing most of my time, but I'm having a hard time pulling that nice clean lap...

T1 0'15.041
T2 0'30.876
 
Tried London (again) for about 10 laps but just can't enjoy racing there. So i'm gonna skip the afternoon tii. Prever coffii anyway :lol: Like the car but hate the track to much.

So good luck to ya all

Indeed, it's frustrating went you go quicker, only to glance a barrier on the last corner. Or the 2nd in my case :ouch:

I was going to post 15.018, 30.980 but just when I thought I'd never string it all together, I got most of the way there.

T1 0'14.982
T2 0.30.950

I can't see that I'll improve as I've got a lot of other commitments from now til the deadline. I know there's time in it, just can't add it all together on one lap.
 
Man, I just did my best ever T1, made a bit of a mistake by T2, but was still faster than my old, and then butchered the last section... Should have been so much better.

T1 0'14.830
T2 0'30.745

After the previous T1, I couldn't go to sleep just yet. :lol: I couldn't get that again, and my T2 was a touch slower, but I did well in the final section and shaved off a good ammount of time.

T1 0'14.941
T2 0'30.799

Welcome back Crispy, nice splits 👍

I just had a quick go on this one, and this is all I could muster:

T1: 14.937
T2: 31.257

Need a bit more time to get back into it by the looks of things, the barriers are scaring me :scared:
 
After a quick first session, I got these splits:
T1:14.804
T2: 30.709

New splits:
T1: 14.971
T2: 30.624

Bad first sector, but a great second and third sector.

I just crushed my PB within 5 laps just now.
My previous best was done on Tuesday.
There is still a bit of time to pick up (had a bit of an oversteer moment coming out of the 2nd 2nd gear corner in sector 3.
Edit: T1=15.110
T2=31.050

Ok, going to give this 1 more shot (half hour sitting) :) Lets see if I can better my time. If not, then I will be submitting with splits on the board.
Good Luck everyone 👍

EDIT: very slight improvement at the line, so I'm submitting now. Not enough time for me to continue this week :(

T1 is killing me ,can't seem to get under .8xx
 
Gave it quite a few laps today (first splits). Fun car to drive, not too pleased with the last sector though. :)

Some guys laying it down this week. I thought my early session was good but then saw these amazing splits showing up on the board & had to give it another go.

Updated splits!

Monster splits Jeremie .👍

Thanks,

Sliding around at high speeds barely missing walls go well with my natural South Florida driving style. Except in real life I'm dodging the blind elderly drivers.
