I know, couldn’t believe it myself... but then a few laps latter, this appeared - at last a 22! Will need to rest now, the old shoulders are knackered.

 

Brilliant

That's it. I'm parking the car.. my eyes are killing me. Moving on to Maserati.

 

There's been quite a bit of action out on the tracks and great effort is paying off!
Here is an update:

5. Moodyryder - 3.00.628 PS4



The action has been split between Laguna Seca and Spa. @Emmanuel Tubbiolo and @TinPeach have been pushing each other faster and faster, and @local_man1234 has dropped straight in with a very quick time to split them. ET's lap time at Laguna two years ago was 1.25.437, so that's a huge improvement but he has now moved from the jet-ski to the barge, which in my experience, is a tricky move!
And we are all hoping TinPeach's shoulders hold out!

Over at Spa @caly82 has done an eye-catchingly, impressive sub 2.50. Great lap! @SlowGrayAudi drops in behind after improving to a 2.50.

But clearly the most impressive recent entry is by @moodyryder , nailing the three events in one go! And more importantly, posting a very nice thanks to the administrator. Thanks to you Moody!

Plenty of time left, let's hope we can quadruple the number of entries by this time next week!


ACC at Barcelona

2. TinPeach - 31:43:176 XSX

AMR Vantage GT4

It is as you were at Barcelona.
The BIG question is, will ET be setting a time in ACC? His copy has finally arrived.

 

Thanks TW and yes ACC needs a little feedback. Unfortunately it's not working out for me. I blame the fact that I have a basic Xbox. Maybe better with upper end consoles. I'll wait to have a PC to have a real go at it. It will need a drastic update but I don't really believe in it. Anyway it's all good I have AC..

I did these laps Tuesday, I think. I thought I could practice more in the following days, but unable.

There must be something really wrong with my driving at highlands...

Bad times, but made myself present!

You’re well within your rights to blame the Xbox. Although far from perfect and still being updated, the XSX version is night and day over it. The original Xbox version has a nasty frame pacing issue (which isn’t present on the PS4 version, that has its own unique problems to iron out) which they don’t seem to have been able to fix, this makes the whole experience much more difficult and the feel sluggish.

They are, apparently, working on a new version for PS5 and XSX to better utilise their uniques architecture rather than just the backward compatibility presently. I really enjoy the XSX version already, but a new port for the more powerful consoles may get us even closer to the PC version - which is extremely good on the right kit.

I've tried to do the exact same time then Caly82Race but it wasn't easy...
Love the car actually. I wouldn't mind one of them. You can put the all family in it and go to SPA..

 

Great info. Have to say I am a bit disappointed as I didn't imagine it will be so far from AC. Personally, because I am not a big video game fan and only play AC the option for me in the future will be a PC. First better equipment but I'll look what PC spec is needed and will enjoy shop around and see if its doable in the future. I dream of a new wheelbase. If anyone has an opinion I'll wouldn't mind. I see Thrusmaster TX-SW for about €400 or going a bit crazy and add €150 to that and get Fanatec Clubsport V2.5...
For both it's about 200 to get a loadcell pedals. A dream for the moment but if I update from my Logitech it's to be ok for the next 10 years so if I have to save the extra cash I'll do it.
