Just did two laps at the Ring, starting to learn where the track goes but an RS3 hit the wall and they closed the track.
Just waiting...But in the end I got 6 laps in but two stretches under yellow but I now remember where the track goes.
Now just learn names and start learning and fine tuning the line and what gear to be in.
Following Ring Taxis helps with the fine tuning :-)

What a place. Look forward to lap every day till the end of the month.

Full throttle up the hill here at Spa I’m not pulling them, not even in their draft shifting at 9000RPM.
I know because there was a .1 GT3RS MR and he was a much better (supercup) driver and we went over it today.
Just wondering, when you were at Spa again did you manage to get under your April best lap (the 2:36.9 iirc) btw?

No, **** ton of traffic, my best was a 2:38 but a few times I had predictive quite a lot below but always someone in the way or made mistakes.
Also had a lot of passengers, I think there was an oil leak closure at O Rouge and there was a rally partially offroad and the used an area by O Rouge so wasn't super confident up the hill. That's all the excuses I have

^^^ Mirror image of mine :-)

A lap yesterday that shows how long the yellow sectors are.
Starting to get a bit more comfortable with the track, this was an empty lap but other laps where traffic jams due to the yellow sectors bunching up he car twice on the same lap.

At times it can be tricky as you may get a passing turn signal on the right, or under yellow, both will result in being sent off the track for at least that day..

It does help to have a car in screaming highlighter green to get early point-by's
