I'm still getting used to H-Pattern shifting with Heel&Toe.. Never really wanted to shift that way in a sim because sequential shifting makes me faster but with thiscar in this game H-shifting is a must so my first 30 laps or so ended with a 1:25.917.. In sequential mode I'm about 2 sec's faster.. AsI said, I'm still getting used to the new technique
BTW: Dont wonder why the screenshot looks weird.. It's the bezel compensation of the in-game triple screen software which causes those screens...

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

That is a hella big picture!!!!! Hopefully in a couple months I will have a cockpit and shifter...even though it will make me even dreadfully slower (learning to heel and toe with shifter) it will be so worth it.

 

[Manuel Darin]

I don't think I can be faster than that... but I'll keep trying. Clutch and H-Shifter, no aids.

1:23:310

I don't understand how can you guys be so quick. Are you using aids? I have everything off and it is impossible to change down to 2nd gear, instant spin basically. Seeing videos changing down to 2nd on speeds 120+ seems utopia. Even if I'm on a 3rd gear, braking down to about 70km/h and changing to 2nd, it locks the rear and spins, even though I'm trying to heel and toe.

You're doing something wrong for sure. I had never driven a sim with so much stability in braking zone, I have no problem also downshifting without H&T

Well, you're obviously not heel and toeing good enough

Also, try not to throw the car in the corner too hard when you brake/downshift, as you put all the weight on the front the rear lacks grip and comes around.

Ditto that. I've got into the 1:27s in pro mode, I maybe able to squeeze another second or 2 but would never get near 1:22

More throttle when blipping. To little and rears will lock up.

 

[bumer1M]

Well, what is weird, is that I give 3/4 of a throttle or something like that and there's little of use, while watching videos guys doing 1.22.xx and they do not give throttle at all just changing down from 4th to 2nd at high speeds while braking a little and no problem at all.

 

[Dave Harris]

I 'll just have to stick with the also rans with my paltry best time of 1:30:036 no aids except for auto clutch.
Can see me getting another second or two off but no way will I ever get near 1:22. Bah!

edit... Put ABS on as it says in the FAQ and got my time down to 1:28:724. Getting better but am still a bit of a snail compared to some on here

 

[Senad Subasic]

Woo
1:25.164 - Senad Subasic

Not that great compared to others, but that's with 900 degrees, H-shifter and clutch, none of which I normally use or am good with

 

[Hampus Andersson]

Finally solved all the FFB shenanigans and now finally i can enjoy the game as it was ment to be played.
Just did 2 laps and thought i´d post a time for now.
I think 22´s is definitely possible for me before i hit the talent wall but anything faster i´m not so sure about....no idea how people hit 21´s..

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

I would love to see the videos of all times. Screenshots only don't do it for me

 

[Lee Ross]

1:23:382...God damn you Kunos...LOL with the clutch, twice today i was on for a 22 but mis shifted and got that lovely grinding sound and lost time, i will break 22's tonight! It's a shame to see so many using paddles etc, this car is amazing with manual clutch and H-shifter.

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

Haha, I felt that I had a good time, not a 1.22, but a good time. Checked it, and it was a 1.28. Oh well...

 

[Stereo]

Hmm, is FRAPS of the replay the easiest way to go about that? I haven't played with the replay options much yet, not sure if I can find the right lap for sure.

 

[Senad Subasic]

Ditto. I can't drive properly with a clutch, and practically never use it, but I am using it here

 

[unc879wins]

1:34:077. DFL so far, lol. Not a die hard racing simmer so don't laugh. loving the TP. full graphics and never dropping below 90fps.

 

[Luke Russell]

First lap with linear brake scaling.

1.23:064

 

[Ryan Vickery]

So I decided to just bang out a lap and do a video, I was using the H-shifter + clutch instead of the paddles and that actually solved the horrible slow gear change issues I was having with the paddles, though I tend to drive a lot worse when I have to use the H-shifter because I'm right foot braking + half the time only 1 hand on the wheel. I get away with this in other games by using autoclutch + paddles, but here the skill cap is raised because I don't have that option.

Anyway, even though the lap is rough as hell it is one of my fastest laps, I've done a load of laps that felt faster, smoother and better, which is why it confused the hell out of me that this crappy lap turned into a 1:23.6

Would love to be able to add in a telemetry mod, similar to what is in Ferrari Virtual Academy perhaps, so I can school myself on why I'm so slow.
