Yes,sorry setup.

I was thinking there was no way I was nearly a second faster than you guys so I checked it again,didnt realise that when you reset it you had to save it or it just reverted back to the old setup.

I have just been on again and managed to sneek the lead with a Default setup this time.

Good lap still. Will have a go tomorrow. I've a little bit more to come on this one. Your corner speeds are up on mine coming down the mountain

Well managed to find more than 2 seconds from looking at the graphs - still losing too much over the mountain and through some of the corners at the bottom where I'm too cautious to avoid spinning it but am getting closer to the pace.

Reckon if I can get it to under 4 seconds off the pace without handicaps I'd be happy, so appreciate it if you guys at the front would avoid going any quicker wink

There you go.

I could do better as I've done better S1 times but my S2 and S3 is the best so far



ETA: checking the Steam Leaderboards I have NO idea how some guy got into the 1 minute 59s... Although I think I recognise his name from LFS back in the day.

Evans S2 time is better than mine still by 0.22s so there must be further improvement.


My previous efforts I was about 0.7-0.8 off in S2, the rest was OK so I'm a bit more on the money now! (through luck more than skill lol)

Those graphs are a big help, looking at my time vs xjay it seems the half second is all in the last corner. Speed/time trace is level going into there...interesting. Not sure I'll get chance to get back on it but that's close over a lap of Bathurst, cracking track.

I really don't think i can go more than a tenth or two faster, it's hard to maintain concentration for the whole lap. Your turn xjay smile

Thanks guys, a lot of frustration (read swearing and earache off the missus) especially coming down the mountain balancing the car...

End of long straight brake very late into 3rd, get off the brakes before turning and get back on power hard, as soon as it's straight drs it, click the drs off before the kink then coast, before braking hard and straight into 2nd, on power early and keep the car straight pointing at the apex of the right kink going up the hill to stop the bumps kicking the rear..

Not that I've obsessed about it or anything mind you...I'm really in the zone with this one. Just wish I could hook it up like this on every combo.

Fat chance, not entered my time yet or set the widget up but I am literally 10 secs off the pace. Now, I was rarely top of the table, but I wasn't expecting to be 10 seconds behind frown

Just to check, are we using default set ups? Please say no, so I can use it as an excuse for being so crap.
