I just needed to be a bit more gentle through S1 but S2 was magic. S3 could still use some work (a few hundredths, maybe) but I think I'm gonna be having a really hard trying to get close to these split again.

I sympathise with you mate....I couldn't get any consistency through turns 1 and 2 yesterday...sometimes I could brake into 1, accelerate slightly before braking again for 2... other times I'd brake so deep into 1 that I had to stay off the throttle all the way to turn 2 entry.

@nursemorph if you are unsure what the proper racing line is for this track is you can take a look at videos from past events in the archive.

I would have went crazy during my 1st year in the WRS if we did not have the archive available to us as a resource. :crazy:
(and I still continue to use it)
 
I finally broke into the 21.8xx's tonight (T1) but so far have been unable to put it to good use and of course my new splits have a slower T1 than the previous. :banghead:

Messed up a 21.66x T1 in T2... AND T3!!! :banghead: 🤬
 
It's been awhile since I've played so I'm fairly rusty (not that I was fast before). This combo doesn't exactly help even though it's loads of fun.:lol:

After about an hour spent trying to drift all the way through the back half of the circuit, the Jack Daniels wore off and I managed to improve a little.

Tricky getting that first sector right... nailed it here but the rest slowly fell apart :lol:

I just looked at my 21.66x replay, the braking, turning and acceleration points are all different for me! :confused:
 
@Northstar, your splits don't show up in the leaderboard, maybe you got a new PSN name? :odd::confused:
There you are! :)

Handbrake is banned? Is that usual?

Yes.

Is that because wheel users have handbrake in an awkward place? I'm not an active participant (obviously), so I don't know.

I am not sure why, but I think it's to add realism. Do you see IRL drivers braking while using the handbrake? Turning while using the handbrake? So yeah, I'm guessing it's that.

EDIT: Ninja'd
 
Made it to T2 faster on countless occasions, only to see best lap ghost cruise past out of the final turn, missing personal best by a few hundredths, then managed to squeeze a best lap by .003s on final attempt.
