I'm improving nicely. After being stuck in the 1:07s, completely inexplicably, I'm finally in the very low 1:06s.

Just did a 1:06.05, which completely blew away my old PB of 1:06.777 that I set 4 whole years ago.

I'm improving my setup to get the car more stable. Very difficult to go much faster, because I'm using GPLShift, meaning I HAVE to use the clutch or it won't go into gear and I'm doing a combination of left and right foot braking.

The car is still pushing at the front end though and the front left tyre is losing grip in the long right hand corners.

Since my best time was set on the 7th lap, 1.05.77 will be my time.
