confusedbrog Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Does everyone realise if you switch your handbrake and clutch buttons so the clutch is on the A button its no more difficult than manual on its own? Just press a and b for shift up or a and x for shift down.
Dogconker Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 I'll be trying that shortly Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Gambit Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 Thats what I did it is a little more difficult but not much of a learning curve. And shocked as the car feels easier to drive but seems to show up more the driver error.
Scoobyghost Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 First thing I did was swap the clutch over. I don't really use it. I'll give it a go and should smash my lap time....again
Gaulson Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Right, tonight I'm learning clutch and setting a new lap time
Gambit Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 I'd say it is a matter of learning all the tracks I found I was relearning braking points and my gearing down sometimes I would be 2 to 5 seconds slower than my previous best. 6 laps on TG test track I'd beat my time but wanted to try get closer to the 1:22's and I was was sick of updating the board last night lol.
Scoobyghost Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 Sorry mate. Couldn't bear to see it like that. [emoji1]
Gambit Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 I just didn't see the times for whatever reason, mind you tapatalk is getting to the point I want to throw my phone and shout profanities at it....
Scoobyghost Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 It was really bad for me last night. It told me a post was updated I open it but nothing was there.
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Ok get ready Gambit. Just got a 1:22.002 dirty lap. Won't be long.
Gambit Posted January 30, 2015 Author Posted January 30, 2015 I won't even try I honestly can't see where I can make that time up in a standard car. I think I can get a few hundredths of a second off maybe break the 1:22 but that will be it :)
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 I'll get a 1:21 and I'm done. I know it's possible. My worse section is hammerhead.
Dogconker Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 1:21.7...dirty lap [emoji20] Anyone can get a 1.21 dirty lap by just cutting the corners, I see what you're doing [emoji6] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Yeah that was a cheeky one lol I did get a 1:22:031 though. I'm not giving up.
Dogconker Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 I haven't got the hang of gears, I can't get my throttle and clutch/gear timing right, any tips. Don't want you too far ahead [emoji41] What's the best way, do you throttle off before change it not, what about down shift Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Change the clutch to A that will help hit both clutch and gear at same time. Drop the throttle and hot the A plus gear at same time then slam throttle on. You can flat foot shift up but it unsettled the car. Do your gear change before the corner and finish braking before you turn in. Get the car nice and stable. Any squeel or loss of grip and you won't get the corner right. All helps to shave that little extra.
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 I managed to knock .230 from my first sector. If I can master the hammer head that'll get me 1:21.7
Scoobyghost Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Ok I'm done tonight with that. Gambit does brogs pic count as my proof?
Gaulson Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 You sure there's no upgrades? I've been trying and trying, getting really smooth laps that get me very low 1.23 but no chance of lower. As a test I put the diff on and roll bars which made no difference to pi and I was getting mid 1.22 with a good lap (kept it dirty so it wouldn't count). Just saying, I can see low 23 being possible I just cant get my head round sub 22 lol. You need to train us if its all legit! . Ps, upgrades have been taken off mine again. 1
