Another couple tenths! Really enjoying this one...

Hey folks - finally managed to get the hang of the Celica at Suzuka. Strange choice of car for the event, but šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø ā€¦ took forever to get to a) any sort of speed, and b) any sort of consistency. Done now and wonā€™t be returning since I hit my goal of a sub-27.

Had fun running some laps in the MX5 on Thursday - enjoying the car and the track (including time of day being used for once - when was the last time we had rain?), some issues again with consistency thoughā€¦ clearly my driving, but tenths seemed to disappear here and there without reason. Agree with the comments on the curb riding from others, but Iā€™m not sure itā€™s completely unreasonable behavior if you imagine the car to be stiffly sprung and light weight. Anyway, after running the Celica this morning, Iā€™ll be back to this tomorrow.

Another ~55 miles at RA today, dropped a little over a tenth, down to a 1:28.734, but still looking for a good bit more time. Not entirely sure where it's being lost, or if it's just all through the lap.

There's a couple obvious things, but otherwise it seems pretty solid, so perhaps it's something I'm not seeing?

Hey folks,

my plug-in is back online, and so am I šŸ˜„

Haven't tested the MX-5 yet (I am a bit anxious since the last time with an MX-5 went pretty disastrously for me), but I did a final session in Suzuka this morning (I really like this one) and am quite happy with the outcome.

Good sectors all around, but the star is probably S4, don't think I ever had a faster one. Off to Atlanta then, happy lapping folks!

Very good result at Suzuka buddy! Well done!
And for the MX 5 , yeah just let this one slip then....don't try it, please..... don't... šŸ¤£šŸ¤£
 
Watched the replay of the Japanese F1 race this morning... I think this track highlights some 'opportunities for improvement' in the new rules. Race over and time to try and make sense of the Road Atlanta track in the MX5. A few miles and lots of lurid slides later, and I've found 4 tenths on my time from Friday and ducked under 1:28.5 and 1% (just). First T1 under 33 seconds on this lap, and only giving a few hundredths away to optimal splits over the 15 lap session.

Not the ideal way to enter turn 1 in theory for my fastest lap, but in practice it worked out just fine...

You probably slaughter it by getting into the 27's, and I honestly don't know if I would be able to make that, my third sector was not ideal and had more oversteer than I wanted out of the chicane but I don't think that would be 2 tenths .... and my S1 and S2 were the fastest I had until now šŸ¤£

Go het it, and yes.....I hope you fail šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

@half_sourly you.......slow down.... šŸ¤£
