Nice, I can probably count on one finger how many times I even managed a 1.19 at Kyalami.
I believe 95% of my time is made up under braking. Having a Load Cell pedal is preventing me from locking up the tyres, which is slowing me down. And my strong Force Feedback is allowing me to be far more precise.
And in other, unrelated news, I have cracked about 30% of GPL's physics engine now, including engine power and car weights. I won't be sharing my results publicly, but putting that feedback back into the game and helping to improve the 67X historic mod.
It's actually so flawed. Slipstream works from over 550 metres away. The peak power and peak torque of each car is a little too much and the grip levels are crazy.
I have been doing 206mph in the Lotus 49 at Spa, in a slipstream, when contemporary reports demonstrate that they were doing 190mph exactly and maybe touching 193mph in the slipstream, limited by a mechnical limiter and gear ratios to stop it exploding. The grip levels also mean I am able to get around Spa 10 seconds a lap faster than the real drivers. On reducing the grip back to standard GPL levels and limiting top speed with my setup, I am able to bring my best laptime down to 3:25s, which is what Clark believed to be the theoretical best around there.
