Split 1 - R2: Nürburgring - 30th Jan 2017 (1 Viewer)

[MelBonkers]

So I did a couple of laps using the weather conditions as set. I can drive low 1m15, high 1m14 comfortably with full fuel, however I can't go lower than 1m14s6. During the practise session I got very close to my time trial time with full fuel. I guess the aliens will take off in the distance and I'll have some nice battles in the mid field.

I will be bad again. I dont have a chair My new pedals can't go on playseat challenge, and if I put wheel on the table, it is too high. Grr....

With all that I could't get lower than 1:16 with his combo. I need something quickly and siple to fix all that in next 2-3 days.

Btw thanks Mikey for setup, I cut off 2 secs instantly.

Yesterday I did some practice (my wheel is now attached to the desk monitor right behind, pedals against the wall and just seat from playseat Challenge with carpet below and I ditched head tracker (waiting for Oculus ) ) and I had fun for first time after new years break.
I was very slow until engaged Cluck in TT as rabbit. I saw where I am making mistakes due to racing line and automatically I was below 1:16 (huge success). So I hope not to be last in Mondays race. Cheers

I had a number of sessions in race conditions and I wouldn't dare with any predictions. This is going to be a very interesting race. Basically I think it will be all about setup, temperature management and car control, thus I'm with the impression that those starting with a lower but safe pace might be well positioned at the end

I'm not a big fan of the Bac, the more I practice the worse I seem to get, so i'm not touching the car at all today until 18.30 and see how that goes

Maybe you are driving with the wrong tires? By the sounds of it..

 

[Dama_The_Crow]

BTW what tyres are right? Supersoft?

Dama, Supersofts are THE tires.

BTW: I did a 5,5 km run yesterday in about 29 minutes..........since my last run 1 1/2 year ago. My muscle ache is ok at the moment, but I'm affraid of the race this evening. Needing to smash my heavy pedal a couple of times a lap will kill my leg I'm affraid. But somehow I have a good feeling about this race.

 

[Dama_The_Crow]

I menaged to go below 1:15.5
I feel like a rocket

 

[Jonno]
