8.08 with pad, extremely easy event

[GhengisKhan39]

Do you use a wheel?

[gt5pp]

@GhengisKhan39 no, just a pad unfortunately

[GhengisKhan39]

@gt5pp How do you make all those turns so perfectly?

[gt5pp]

@GhengisKhan39 Its far from perfect, but you just have to be careful on the throttle, shift earlier than you would normally (avoid high rpm) and make sure to brake enough to compensate for the wet conditions and the comfort tyres.

[GhengisKhan39]

@gt5pp Thanks for the advice. Hope to be as good as you are soon

[Jacubino1]

@gt5pp do you accelarate on X?

[gt5pp]

@Jacubino1 no use L2 to brake and R2 to accelerate. That way you can apply the correct amount of thorttle and break

[Jacubino1]

@gt5pp thanks i accelerate on the right analog stick... im going to change it to R2 and L2 then

Nice run. I just did this today. 8:20 but I know I could clean up my run a little bit. Can't wait for more of these events :)

[gt5pp]

@userfriendly06 Congrats. Yeah is definite room for improvement, mine was far from perfect lap, but couldn't be bothered to do it again to try and improve, as the margin should help anyone thats struggling to get gold.

The special events are definitely the highlight of the game, particularly the AMG driving academy ones like this.
