Off to have a go at this one

Just set up a new YouTube channel for it as well haha.

[flanders010]

Pearcyy, how the hell did you get that time?? the lowest i could get is a 1:02 something :/

[Blayney]

Haha same. I'm on a 1:02.1 I think at the moment. According the game my best potential lap is a 1:01.7

I'm not using the pit exit for T1 or cutting Coppice as aggressively or running as wide on the exit of the final chicane. FOV setting in this video gives a good sense of speed that I should probably try and change mine to match.

I would say it is doable, below is my 1:00.85 and I was slow in the old hairpin and messed up McLeans.

PC with a wheel.

Bit of a strange one this did a 1:00.4 straight away but took me ages to beat it think its very hard to actually gain a good chunk of time in this car and track, then did the 59.927 and im pretty happy i wont go faster than that unless i spend a few hours trying to beat it but tbh the track and car isn't much fun so i dont want to but just stick with it and hopefully we'll get a better one next week.

Heres a video of my lap to maybe help some of you, think most time is gained in the last chicane really have to brake late and risk chucking it in and hope it sticks.

DJ i had trouble with ghosts when i went further down the leaderboards to slower cars in the classes.

Can someone please put the times into the table to keep it tidy and then add theirs to make it easy.

Thanks for the vid Pearcyy. I watched it after setting my first time but reckon using the pit lane on T1 as you did could help to keep speed up and shave a few tenths! Hoping to get time before the challenge closes to give it a try. Such a pain in the arse getting the wheel out, but after using it for a few hours it's hard to go back to a pad

[SirSquidalot]

I'm such a bell, just done a 1:00:683 and realised I'm doing this in free practice! I'll try time trial more later

Massive cock up into T1 but the rest of the lap is good if a little untidy

May have to have a quick go at this at the weekend, not driven anything but clios, a megane and some GT4 so far so there may be a bit of a learning curve!

[flanders010]

Times are coming down a bit for me. Got a 1:01.something last night. not sure how i'm losing two seconds though off the fastest time??

[djdest]

I still can't get the damn ghosts to work, not even my own best one!
So struggling to improve much with nothing to race against

Its just practice, i must have done 80 laps last night with no ghost and knocked 1.3 secs off. Given up now

[Speckle]

Excellent idea - will have a go over the weekend. I do love a time trial

[Pearcyy]

Hmm, more wheel lock neeeded i think for me... Times are crashing down guys. If it makes you feel better my lap was a bit of a fluke i was getting nowhere near it really before.

Oh yeah I know that, its just a lot easier if you have someone to race against as a pacemaker.
I did about 50 laps last night and knocked off just under 1.5 without a ghost.

[AlexHat]

I did a free practice dummy run last night (having never driven the Formula C before) and got down to 1:04ish...damn am I slow
