Great time Smoke! I failed to tune the car as well, let’s blame it on the car
Coopracing:
Sorry for the wrong person on the wheel. I haven’t done gaming in 40 years. I’ve retired and was looking for something to do. So I got the xbox one x and the wheel. I’ve never use a controller. I did add the T3PA pro pedals and the load cell brake, makes for a lot better braking. I’m not a fast guy but having fun.
Fun is more important than speed, and you ain’t slow either, the top guys in this challenge are top 1-3% (estimation) guys, no shame to be a bit slower than them.
Just enjoy yourself, with more practice you will only get faster.
Fantastic time, well done.

Nothing wrong with that Coop, Moss may have you beat on age - you’ll have to compare notes lol.
I’m 44 have used control pads of various sorts & styles since the sega master system which is going back erm some years lol. The controller has a lot of advantages to be fair, the rumble on both brake and acceleration is excellent - giving great feedback on tyre grip level. The game is also heavily geared towards the controller as it’s the main input method used by the majority of gamers - they have tweaked and tweaked the handling to be just about perfect with a pad - to the point that starting to use a wheel (for me at least) - is like unlocking the super secret hard mode that almost nobody talks about.
I’ve got my time down to 1:22.681 and there’s another couple of tenths in there somewhere for me - just can’t seem to get all my ducks in a row on this one. My work when someone is underperforming likes to make things black and white - is it a ‘Will’ or a ‘Skill’ issue? i.e. is the person just not trying or do they need more training.
My time is definitely not for lack of will on this one, so I’m voting skill lol.
I’ve shared my tune in case anyone else wants to try it out, see if they can’t show me up in my own tune.
Have fun all either way - I’m done for the night, to be fair - we’ve got a charity coffee morning thing on at work on Friday morning, so I suspect tomorrow night be baking - not sure how much time I’ll have to lap again before the weekend & . . . then may just be running a little bit on FH4. Although still resisting the temptation, it’s only a matter of time really before all resolve crumbles and I click order in store!
Have tested your tune, found it a bit stiff. Positive was that it wasn’t attempting to break out much while accelerating.
No luck in catching you tonight, currently at 1:22.8xx dirtied some .2xx, maybe i will have more luck tomorrow.
