unlikely to be in attendance this weekend. won't get home until right on lights out. Pity cause yes I do like willow springs
That's disappointing. I was looking forward to challenging you this race. I've managed to hit high 1.15 - low 16 RH and low 1.14 RSS
Where is everyone in this div located this season? I'm east coast AU and Johnno is west coast AU, any here from across the ditch? If 15 mins would make a difference i'd be happy to wait.
Those are very impressive times, that's right up there with xl'x and Beau's times from our practice last night.
I could manage a 1:15 on RS with a full tank, but cant get faster than 1:16 on RH with low fuel (I think). @DAMN_RIGHT_BOB on the other hand, still doing 1:16's on RH after 25 laps.
Poo. I need to practice if this is true. Still unsure where I should be putting my car on top of the hill. Weird ass corner. I think that's where I'm losing most my time
As far to the left as possible. I gained a solid .8s there. Same goes with Turn 9, flat out, ease off a smidge (brake or coast), line up and aim for that apex, gained another full 1s there. Corners at RSS speed 1. 170 - 180, brake about 75m 2. ~190 3. 130 coast to 115, brake about 50m 4. Wide Left, 130 / 140 ease to 110, ease to full, use full track width. 5. Brake a smidge to drop to ~140 6. Flat out 7. Flat out 8. Flat out, until ~125m, brake a smidge to ensure you stay on the track, line up the apex, then... 9. Flat out (aiming for 200+)
Hards should last the entire distance, however the time lost staying on them will reduce your chances of a good finish. RSS for me at least, should last a good solid distance of the race and still be faster than RH.
Thanks Emmo, I've done some practise here, as I hate finding the dust bunnies. In Hat's room, I was managing 1.15 RH, couldn't quite emulate that last night, but was getting low 1.16. Swapped to RSS and bam, 1.14
Happy to start a few minutes later, I've got all the time in the world since we starting racing at 530 for me
I found a heap of time from not changing down to third at turn 5, now im still getting better and better at it by easing off the brake slowly, rather than straight off and on the go pedal. Its that last corner thats such a wildcard...though i can get >200 sometimes on RSS
@Tristan Jones - man, how unlucky were you early on. That mysterious spin after making contact with a ghosted Johnno. #rough
I watched that part in super slowmo. I think my car unghosted as jonesy was in the cars model. Super unlucky.
So I thought citing the hit box being a different size to the model box was a cop out excuse for going to close to the bus stop...there is time to practise where the limits are...but maybe that is what happened here... I thought i went wide enough to get around...just in case...but apparantely not. Also, I think the relative speed difference was shrinking - I was slowing down to get around him, and he was speeding up, so that probably contributed to unghosting too. First race season 5 @monza...first race season 6...I better stay clear of Johnno first race of season 7 at this rate! Still got that replay Johnno? I deleted all my old ones on my ps4 to make room for more...
