Last sector still proving tricky for me, especially the last corner. Is it 2nd or 3rd gear?

T0M sorry to be the bearer of bad news but your time didn't save, your best on the leaderboard is 1:10.529, get back on it buddy

No idea why my lap didn't upload - my Internet is crap though - but even so, doesn't it store locally until able to upload? Do pictures count?

[born2bslow]

It's only for fun anyway T0M, just winding you up, pics are fine. The number of times I've been on a quick lap and got booted back to race central is not funny.

[xjay1337]

Last turn, 3rd gear for me. Run out wide in the exit. You should be able to to carry about 50-52 mph around the corner.

[GroundEffect]

The Mrs is off to Amsterdam for the weekend (I'd rather not ask...) so I'll be giving this one a good going

A grand total of 30 mins effort, which is very likely the only chance I'll get this week.

Rex, wasn't your time set in the other car? Steam leaderboard says 1:11.535 so, I assume you had a better lap that didn't save?

That's me done

[GroundEffect]

Not to st on any laps but are the track-limits so damn strict on the PC version? I just can't see how in 3 corners (S3) I'm 1 second slower. The chicane (2nd last corner) you have to be so careful keeping all 4 wheels on track. Turn 1 is strict too.

I cannot go any faster than I have done. Am oot.

Groundeffect, didn't you know that we don't actually have any track limits on PC, we can just take whatever line we see fit

Obligatory clip of lap here (the correct lap for once!!) I reckon there is another few tenths in there somewhere but, I don't have the time to hunt for them today... https://youtu.be/Koz21AkB_d4

Didn't really push the track limits at all for that time, perhaps you're being too aggressive? Unfortunately, my PS4 isn't here at the moment otherwise I'd run a few laps for comparison.

Great video and lap! The VR looks awesome.

I take pretty much exactly the same lines as you. Except your car seems to be a whole load more planted.

I could not find another 1.3 seconds to match your time to save my life.


What's the new combo?? I may have a pokey nose later see what there is.

[T0M]

Feel free to suggest a combo

[xjay1337]

Nurburgring GP and Macca P1?

Or someone feel free to choose another car, really like the circuit.

Given I went across the line backwards, I think I might have a tenth or two left

I think the clip is deceptive and makes this appear more planted than it felt at the time. Through the chicane, I could really feel the weight shifting to the right - any quicker and I couldn't have carried the speed through.

I won't have any chance to participate for a few weeeks (holiday, yay!! ) unless I can bring myself to attempt a lap on the PS4 with a pad (I suck with a pad and would be at least 10 seconds of the pace!!)

When I did my time of 2:05 yesterday I thought, yeah that was pretty good. How wrong I was.

Bit of time today.

Also a video of a previous lap effort. (pretty poor looking back on it) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcLCL_gAjqY

I think a mid to high 1:58 is possible. Only 4 days until I order my playseat and I can be G29'ing it up.

That's got to sting, Jay

And I couldn't make sense of your lap times (I was 0.4 faster in S1 and 0.4 faster in S3, with 0.2 slower in S2 but still same time?)



Is ur maths k?

You bugger!

That's another 4 hours wasted tomorrow then

[T0M]

what a horrible, horrible, horrible car.

Terrible turn in. Seemingly endless amounts of understeer. Horrible traction. Sounds like a bus. Laggy as hell power delivery. I think it's the worst car I've found in the game so far.

[Tronneh]

I would hazard a guess that you have stability and traction control turned on?
