I'll probably keep playing the Dragon Trail TT some more as I feel I can improve there further. Laguna Seca TT which I'll try only next week as a VGT car around Laguna will make the track feel even more narrower & prone to frustration.
 
And a famous Play Station game too? lol.

But seriously, I'll pass on this TT. See y'all in the next road car TT 🤟

:gtpflag:
There is a good chance i'll only put efford in the EMS that starts tomorrow.... i have Mclaren VGT Suzuka vibes when i see this 2000 HP ..thing..., i still regret taking part in that.... i'm to old for that speed 😂 😂
 
I'll try the new TT offline just to see where I would end up...
But I'll not add another bronze to my list so:

Yo yo racers, hope all is well!

I've been distracted with life stuff and other games (testing the new Battlefield game in alpha and beta has been a highlight), so my TT time has been limited, which is lucky, as the recent TTs for me have been pretty pants.

Willow in the Silvia was dreadful largely due to the exploits, I wanted to love the RX7 at Nurb' but man those track limits and hefty bumps rendered many a god lap useless (love the car though) and the Audi R8 TT is ok but kinda too easy (got gold in 3 laps and without watching any guides) and then this Corvette thing turns up on Laguna Seca and feels more akin to Ridge Racer than GT but hey ho, I'll keep trying for Golds but my desire to hammer these is notably vacant, fingers crossed for the next TT

(I'm probably been unfair to the R8 one, it's not bad, just kinda meh)

My optimum at Nurburgring showed how those kerbs and track limits killed my final time

A VGT in a TT is probably the worst thing that we could endure. Hate all the VGTs except got Daihatsu's Copen RJ VGT car.

Good thing that the Dragon Trail TT is still active & loads of fun even though making progress there is getting harder as per my skill set.
 
I did about 50 km with the VGT... I'm in bronze... 2 seconds away from silver...🤔😥

I don't see how I can win... and it's only the first day, so in fact, I'm at least 3 seconds away...😂😂😂
It's too fast for my old brain...

My plan was to do lots of laps to drain the battery and make it easier to control... but...
I didn't manage to do more than 3...😂😂

I also tried the automatic gearbox... it's no better........ so: next...😜

We'll see tomorrow what the NSX has in store for us at Lago M...🤔
 
So got back from holiday, wife is unpacking and I thought I’d do a few laps.

The R8 is nice, would have also worked well at Seaside I think.

The vette concept isn’t my cup of tea, I’ve done less than 20 miles in each of the cars for these TTs so still lots of time for me to go and try to find.
